<ul>
<li>
+ X200: only framebuffer graphics work. This is fine, since it's what most people use,
+ but text-mode graphics initialization is currently broken, which means that
+ memtest86+ will require serial output or ehci debugging.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ X200: at very low brightness levels, the backlight is uneven. Fix that.
+ </li>
+ <li>
Fix remaining incompatible LCD panels in native graphics on T60.
