Lion on Thinkpad T61P

[BulletproofBob]

Is it possible to get lion on the T61P with full functionality?

I've just installed Lion on my T61p. Not very pretty so far. Missing audio, bluetooth, WiFi. The nVIDIA Quadro FX 570M card is recognized but has yet to provide full support.

Still tweaking...

Everything works. For information regarding the process and for a how-to look here: http://forum.thinkpads.com/viewtopic.php?p=642196

And goodluck!

I installed Lion on my X61 7767 Tablet

The above is the first line in the forum post I linked too. So I assume so....

I don't have a X61, that is why I asked. I have a T61P, very different machine.

Yes, that guide should still work for you. I was implying the 61 series should all work with that guide, since they are all based on the same hardware.

I'd also recommend throwing an SSD in your thinkpad, major performance improvements. And update your bios with the Middleton bios hack to unlock SATA II.
