I've got the tablet buttons working on my X61T with 32 bit win 8 (previously Vista business). I pulled in a load of the windows 7 drivers from the lenovo website to get everything working again. I think it is the 'tablet button driver' you will need. I also needed the multitouch driver as otherwise it was pen input only. The lenovo system update tool doesn't seem to help so I had to get the drivers manually.

The problem with my windows 8 installation is that I can not get sleep or hibernate to work. I'm open to any ideas or suggestions that would help with these ?
