    Considering backtracking to when !Slackware worked with suspend. On my !Thinkpad T40P that was 13.1. On X32... dunno.

        Only tool missing on my new !Slackware !Thinkpad is !Inkscape. Building the deps with !Slackbuilds takes a bloody long time, though...

          That's brilliant. I will be giving the new !Trisquel a go - now that I am using my new !Thinkpad, it is more interesting.

            @rw I find quite a few very affordable T60s and T61s, and I suspect that is what I'll get. I love the design of the X60, but it's SO small.

            about 10 months ago
          • R. R.

            @mjjzf Have you any experience with T60s running hot? Are T61s a better bet? Is a T42 too slow for a linux system?

            @rw I don't know them. I have used a T40P up until now. With a gig of RAM and a 1.6GHz Pentium M, it will handle everything not source-based

            @eightyeight It's a fairly decent distro for what it's worth. First encounter with pacman was a shock though (install is called Sync‽‽‽).

              @zapadlo, I've eliminated hardware question by trying different equipment end-to-end w/ same software. Odds are very good it's not hardware.
