Noise Removal

Set the variable is_thinkpad_x200 to yes (which is the default value). The default frequency rate should work. It may be changed by modifying the value of PWMFREQ_RATE.

Privacy Settings

-

/etc/default/my-x200 also provides a “Privacy Settings” section: if enable_privacy is set to true, then the wired internet interface that may or may not be connected to the internet will have its MAC address spoofed at startup. (The wireless interfaces must also be spoofed, but this can be handled by wpa_supplicant: see below.) Additionally, my-x200 will delete /var/lib/dhcpcd/duid, and use /proc/sys/kernel/random/boot_id to generate a new DUID-LLT-based file with an updated timestamp. A new DUID is generated each time the computer is started.

It must be noted that when enable_privacy is set to true my-x200 turns off the wifi radio at computer startup and each time it is put to sleep. The wifi radio has to be turned on or turned back on manually by pressing Fn-F5

Backup

Finally my-x200 has the ability to backup essential files or directories—for instance to a backup disk mounted inside the dock. Of course, the backup process is triggered on certain conditions only:
