Sound with Linux 2.6.13 on Thinkpad X32
I had a problem with the X32 running Linux 2.6.13 where the audio device was there, but I couldn’t always hear the output. I found this post mentioning that the headphone sensor and line jack sensor both need to be muted, which worked for me. Here’s the card info from... [Read More] -

WPA on Linux 2.6.13 Thinkpad

Infrastructure
I need to echo some of the stuff that Russ says about New Orleans and Jon Udell as well about the wireless infrastructure. Some stuff, not all of it. I actually don’t much care about New Orleans. I was there before it flooded and got to see it. Great place,... [Read More] -
