===== using the 2 keys next to cursor-keys =====
<code>
xev         # select the window that gets created and hit the keys after each other to get their keycodes. here 234 and 233
xmodmap -pk # shows current mappings
xmodmap -e 'keycode 233 = THORN'
xmodmap -e 'keycode 234 = Oslash'
            # those commands now maps keysyms to our keys, use keysyms you do not usually
WPrefs      # this is the utilits windowmaker uses to assign actions. Go to 'change keyboard shortcuts', select your action
            # (for me its switch to next/previous workspace), then 'capture' and hit the key. save, and the keys have their
            # new assignment.
            # execute the 2 assignment-xmodmap-calls in ~/.xinitrc or ~/.xsession, or read on .xmodmaprc in 'man xmodmap'

===== things to install on a fresh linux/bsd on the thinkpad =====
  * wmaker, xorg
  * thinkpad-virtualscreen-keys
  * firefox, adblockerplugin, (privoxy)
  * umts
  * acpi, suspend to disc/ram
  * qemu+kqemu
  * mplayer
  * madwifi-driver + kismet
  * sounddriver + xmms + mpg123
  * OpenSwan + patches, KLIPS, OpenSC + patches
  * OpenVPN
  * fglrx not any more since 3d-seems broken (no textures on 4d-graphics) and the mobility9000-support was droped in last version
  * imagemagick, qiv



===== a word on wlan-driver =====
I have an atheros-chip for wlan. The old madwifi-driver works in hostap-mode (so providing an access point). The newer ath5k driver does station/managed and monitor mode, but for now hostap-mode is restricted to open networks as it seems as of 2008-11-14 . See https://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=122665779201442&w=2 

===== setup wlan-card as accesspoint with wpa/wpa2 =====

===== setup wlan-card as client with wpa/wpa2 =====
<code>
apt-get install wpasupplicant # or install from https://hostap.epitest.fi/wpa_supplicant/
umask 127
wpa_passphrase fluxnet 545w3dfwdxyf35 >/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf

# wpa_supplicant -Dwext -iath0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf # for ath5k driver, foreground
dhclient ath0
</code>

===== setup and use hdaps (angle-sensor) =====
  * compile and install a kernel >=2.6.14 with the hdaps option and the joydev-module (its in input-devices)
  * load the two modules
  * install neverball or tuxracer and use the thinkpad to control the game
