Linux noob trying to install Debian Etch on a Thinkpad T61

[ubername]

I Installed Debian Etch on my new Thinkpad T61 using the amd64 network install cd with the Standard and Laptop software sets.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I Added this to my /etc/default/rcS to fix the hw clock which is explained here: http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Problems_ ... .28etch.29

Code: Select all

HWCLOCKPARS="--directisa"

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I got frequency scaling to work (at least I think I did). Explained here: http://www.klabs.be/~fpiat/linux/debian ... d_T61.html
I Added this to my /etc/modules.

Code: Select all

speedstep-centrino
cpufreq_stats
cpufreq_ondemand
cpufreq_conservative
cpufreq_powersave

I Changed

Code: Select all

ENABLE="false"

to

Code: Select all

ENABLE="true"

in my /etc/default/cpufrequtils.

I have a nVidia Quadro NVS 140m and the 15.4" TFT display with 1680x1050 (WSXGA+) resolution. I Installed The bare minimum for X to work with fluxbox. The auto-configuration does not work and I can't figure out how to make it work on my own.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Using this page http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/How_to_en ... hinkFinger as a guide I installed all the software that thinkfinger needed. I Downloaded and unpacked the thinkfinger sources and did:

Code: Select all

# tar -zxvf thinkfinger-0.3.tar.gz
# cd thinkfinger-0.3
# ./configure --with-securedir=/lib/security --with-birdir=/etc/pam_thinkfinger

the configure script complains:

Code: Select all

configure: error: PAM header files not found

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm hoping you can help me get X and thinkfinger working, Thanks!
