...but not adding debt!
Laptop Update It never fails. New piece of gear, 3x install to get it right. It's X, as usual. I have no clue what the refresh rate and stuff on a laptop LCD is! The fact that I have to boot it using " video=vga16:off" to get it not to munch the bottom three lines of the screen is annoying. I haven't got the driver for the video system (SiS 305, if you care), and I'm racking my brain as to what the differences with laptop vs desktop are wrt getting X to run. I think I need to install XFree86-mach (machine??) to work with it, but I gotta do a little more homework.
Work Update I'm here. So far, so good. It's been close to 5 months, and I haven't strangled anyone... ;-)
