Hi guys, Has anyone noticed that if you boot linux with the lid closed (for instance you close the lid immediately upon selecting the OS in Grub), then the...
Patient: "Doctor, it hurts when I do this" Doctor: "Don't do that" ... Only half serious. I've never tried anything like that - maybe I'll try it next boot....
... Can't tell if it hurts unless you try it once (or it happens by accident). Then you become curious... :-) ... I'm running a patched version of the redhat...
Just wanted to register with you guys that after getting the TrueMobile 1150 miniPCI part from Dell, everything works great from me. I believe Markus posted...
Hello everybody. I'm just a newbie to linux but I would like to get involved in it. I've had a few problems using some features that the d800 web page said...
The gnome battery applet has a "suspend" feature on the contect menu that just runs a command of your choice. Also, you can use the same method as the volume...
I know - but the main problem (as I see it, could be wrong, ymmv, etc) is getting the partial-open/partial-closed per-country regulatory enforcement stuff...
Hi * I've finally managed to succesfully upgrade my D800 to Linux 2.5.73 and I am even running my console in 1280x1024 resolution now. So far so good. I have...

... Let me know how you go. I just tried it and it isn't a 100% solution. It is possible that the whine is a lower pitch now, but I would really need to...

I'm out to buy a Dell Inspiron 8500, Dell Latitude D800, or IBM Thinkpad T40. I want to run Redhat 9 and may eventually consider Slackware. Is any one of...
... Can't really say much about the other laptops, but the D800 is pretty well supported by Linux, if you follow the instructions on Mike's web page and if you...

No, I don't think it is "too difficult", though it will be quite a task. I've played around with Linux somewhat for a few years now but still consider myself a...
The reverse side of this is Gentoo (as opposed to knoppix - which I have also heard good things about), a complete from source distro. I would only suggest it...
I played with it for a bit before MH published (or I found rather) the XModMap stuff. I never got it working. It looks like a VERY powerful system, but it is...
