Thank you, RealBlackStuff, I will try that. dr_st I didn't know where else to put this, and I wasn't having much luck googling. I thought with the knowledge of the people on this forum they may have a better answer than I was finding in being able to remove the device & not break either of them. And...

So...I have this Thinkpad Z61t I love it... Sadly, there's a wireless mouse USB receiver stuck in one of the front ports that I cannot remove. I was hoping that, maybe, the ports weren't soldered to the motherboard & then I could just switch them out, but alas, they are. I really would like to remov...

*Comes out of lurking mode* Not really...maybe sorta kinda...I have my very first SmartPhone that I find I'm kind of attached to. my Nexus One. It's still used daily...as a music/radio player & alarm clock. Still in excellent shape, and I'm still amazed at how well it was made, and that it still is ...

There's also AntiX, which is pretty light.

I'm posting from an X200 tablet using Ubuntu 14.10 (dual boots with Windows if needed). The stylus works without a problem, but I'm having issues calibrating it for a finger. I might have to do a fresh install to get it to work. Under Ubuntu 14.04 long term support it worked without a hitch.

I bought a T23 last year so I started using the trackpoint, although I was using a USB mouse more often. I then signed up to this forum, and from reading on here, I began using it more & more. I use it almost exclusively now, even if there is a trackpad on the computer.

At work in our lunch room. Austin, TX. My X200T. I love this lil guy. Travels with me every day for studying, surfing, whatever

Just read something about the 4M's pae/non-pae. Some are and aren't Here's a post from the Linux Mint forums: The Pentium Ms mostly from 2003 and 2004 ("Banias") don't support PAE, but Pentium Ms mostly from 2004 and 2005 ("Dothan") do. See here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Intel_Pentium_M...

I have an R40 that's running Ubuntu Mate and does so quite smoothly, so I'd think the T30 would be similar. The card is an old ATI Mobility Raedon 7500 (I think. It's not with me at the moment), so it's using a free driver. (Think the free ATI one?) Can't do much with cool effects like I could do at...

Linux on just about everything. R40 has Ubuntu Mate G41 Ubuntu Mate (just got this up & running after having to buy a new motherboard for it) X200T Ubuntu/Windows 7 E530 Linux Mint Cinnamon/Windows 7 600E Linux...Just can't remember offhand which version T23 LXLE Presario...Having issues finding a g...

This is a bit old, but thought I'd chime in. My R40 is running Ubuntu Mate quite smoothly. In the past, I've also run LXLE on it.

I think mine has PAE, though. (P4M, 2.0 Ghz, 2Gig RAM)

oh, dear god. THEY HAVE FROGGER!!

I think the rest of my afternoon is now ruined by this (lol)

(Kinda sorta works on a T23...but is painfully slow...I had to try)

Don't know if this is what you're looking for, but I was perusing Ebay and came across this listing

Ooo! I have a softspot for R40s. It was the very first laptop I bought specifically to run & learn Linux on, back in 2007, off Ebay. Mine's the 14.1" screen, but I love it. It's been dropped twice, no damage done to it either time (I'm lucky, I know!), still runs & I use it almost every day.

Whew. I know this is an older thread, but glad I searched for it. My newly acquired 600E also has that funny smell. it's not really a bad smell...just a weird one.

And as others have stated, none of the other machines have that smell.

Maybe it was just a fluke that I got it to work

Maybe there are other differences between a 600 and a 600E? Or could be some differences between AntiX and AntiX MX-14 (which is what I'm using)?

May I ask if there is a special trick or procedure you used to get the audio going? I have not really missed the audio on the 600, but I have done quite a lot of reading about it, and during the winter I will try to look into it. Did you go the route with a DOS partition on your drive, or did you m...

My T23 running LXLE

Manjaro Linux is based on Arch. I've tried the live CD a few times on a few of my thinkpads, and didn't have much luck with them, unfortunately. There's also ArchBang. I thought Arch had their own live CD nowadays? I had it installed on an old Compaq Presario desktop (P2 366 mhz, 386 Mb) and it work...

Hi there I'm new here, but use Linux on both my 600E and T23. The 600E uses AntiX-MX. It was kind of slow, at first, but I was able to upgrade the RAM so it now has 544MB...it doesn't fly, but it's usable for browsing the 'net...as long as I don't open more than three tabs in Iceweasel. (lol) And au...
