Hardware: R50p with ATI Graphic 128MB
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc M10 NT [FireGL Mobility T2] (rev 80)
System: Debian Lenny 5.0
Driver: fglrx

Solution:
- install cpufrequtils #sudo apt-get install cpufrequtils
- edit #nano /etc/initrd/cpufrequtils
- change line “ondemand” to “performance”
- check System #dmesg
- System show “unstable clocksource” last line
- edit #sudo nano /etc/boot/menu.lst
- add to Kernelparametes line
/vmlinuz-2.6.26-2-686 root=/dev/hda3 ro quiet vga=normal clocksource=acpi_pm
..reboot

This will run System on max. Speedstep and Videos does’nt hang X-Server.
Should help on other Thinkpads to with ATI Chip’s

For using Video Chat over different continents you need
under Ubuntu 10.04 following steps:

- buy a older used good Webcam Logitech Fusion (UVC-Driver-Webcam)
- go to Skype Homepage install Skype Beta for 8.10 (working on 10.04 too)
- plugin Webcam
- install skype-deb paket #sudo apt-get install skype-ubuntu-intrepid_2.1.0.81-1_i386.deb
- login to skype if you have a account, if not register at skype for free

..have fun..out of the box Webcam Chat works out of the box!

(This was a big problem of older ubuntu/debian versions, cause i can’t
phone to other countries)

..now Windows is replaced for ever..
