Dezfor: I'd personally stay away from the ThinkPad Edge if you can possibly afford a "true" ThinkPad. The Edge is basically a glorified IdeaPad with a TrackPoint and the ThinkPad logo.
For one,...
The last I checked, Ghost can copy the existing sectors to a cloned file. I can't remember the proper options term for it though.
This might be able to help you Mike. The only downside to this is that it seems that the kernel will need to be recompiled.
I received an IBM X32 and an UltraBaseX3 yesterday. I docked the X32 and put another battery in the UBX3 so that I would be running a dual battery configuration. They both charged up and are...
An X20 (maxed out) owner here. I'm also looking into getting an X24. Am mulling over looking into getting an X3x + Ultrabase X3 if my second X24 eBay bid is bidsniped.
Both with Ultrabase X2 +...

Source? I see that this is likely off of the fora or the blog.
Am 21 years of age. I use Ubuntu to do whatever I need it to do. :mrgreen:
I surf the web, download, game, listen to music, GIMP stuff, download random stuff off the repos, code html, break &...

Another PSP user here. I have an opened 1001 series, so I also use it as a truly universal (programmable) remote control, eBook reader, etc.
I just wish that the flac player was better... :(
I'd also check out Kate. I'm not sure as to how it fairs in non-webpage code, but it has a different "tweak" on the interface than Gedit.
No problem! If you change your mind, just PM me. Am now planning to fix it up and place it on Craigslist within the next month or so.
Re: Seeking older Thinkpad
I do have an X20 that I've been thinking about selling. It may not be the best for what you are thinking of, but is available.
Specs:
* Series 2662-32U
* 600MHz PIII
* 320MB SDRAM (Maxed out)...
Nope! :mrgreen:
The release of 9.5 has made me actually want to "purchase" a web browser.:lolflag:
(Does anyone know how to donate to Opera? I have no need for any of their mobile products,...
I personally would buy a Thinkpad X series over any other laptop, if given the chance + monetary availability.
Why?
The Trackpoint is my main reason for going over to the Thinkpads. I also...
Am afraid that I don't know. I've only seen them at retail.
It installs the -rt kernel. If this not the correct one?

I recently got a 1.8Ghz Sempron M (ATi XPress 1100, 1.5GB RAM) that I'm gaming on & running a fairly decent BIONC score too. Am also running Blackbox on an maxed out Thinkpad X20...
I've seen this activity only on Firefox.
I REALLY prefer heavy cases. My current case (~3-5 lbs empty) is FAR too lightweight for my likings. I'm afraid that I'm going to break it every time...
I'd personally recommend:
* Buying/getting your own computer and installing Linux on it.
* Don't actively force or constantly show them the differences between Windows and Linux, as they will...
Ubuntu Studio is in the repo's as ubuntustudio-desktop. (Not sure which one it is in though...)
It can be installed to your WUBI installation of Ubuntu.

I've been looking into making an avatar, but the last one I made (and fancied) got corrupted before I uploaded it... ](*,)
I obviously have few qualms putting my information on the 'net, but...
Sorry for being quiet on this quest, RL got to the forefront of my time & thought. (Doesn't help that my brain has been fried as of late due to the lack of sleep)
I have a separate copy of this...
I leave my laptop on for days on end. My desktop is mostly ran as an expensive AP->AP bridge for the downstairs network at this point, so it's left off most of the time.
They are both running...
I really like the new skin (the Jungle style is the most preferred here) and I like how the side panel is under Linux now, as the strip was too hard to easily hit in the previous versions.
There's...
Good point. :) Well, hwinfo doesn't come with vanilla Ubuntu, so this allows anyone pretty much anyone with a standard Distro (at the time being) to obtain basic info about the computer.
(Thanks...
