No replies?? I'm interesting in this, I might buy the T400.

 

Too bad the wireless and vga out don't work.. any ideas on how to fix these?

 

Would it be possible to change the wireless card?

Regarding wireless - get a usb dongle or use wirecard (GSM) i have tested sierra GSM and worked excellent.

 

Regarding the video - still not resolved

I have tried updating with both genuine Apple kernel (Vanilla - that was on a successful Kalyway 10.5.2 install) and also now with iATKOS v7 install (10.5.7 using Voodoo kernel) - both crashed halfway thru system updates. This is common with OSX86, even if you're goig with genuine Apple kernel like Vanilla. thinkpadR50 you're v fortunate that update worked for you! My iATKOS custom install is pretty much identical. So now I wait for either the iATKOS/Voodoo team to release an update, or most of us need to install Snow Leo pref retail (that's next on my list and easier than it sounds they tell me). Hazard's was just that - a hazard... Retail installs are better because they aren't hacked to the kernel and thus the updates always work (still gotta find yr drivers tho' - and the initial booter). Good work though! Maybe I should get me a Thinkpad...

success installed the iAtkos V7 on my T400 by your steps,

but with an additional issue: the sleep does not work.
