Lenovo Thinkpad X230 Tablet/Laptop questions

I have a X230t running Debian & Gnome smoothly. Most things work out of
the box, including stylus input and wifi. Note that I have the version
without touch input, i.e. only stylus. Even the 3G modem works without
any additional software. I expect it to run equally well with Ubuntu.

Some tips:
 • Install TLP [1], e.g. for better battery management
 • Install thinkpad-scripts [2] to give think like screen auto-rotate

Best regards,
Florian
