Ubuntu 7.10 on Lenovo/IBM Thinkpad R61


Just as a reminder for myself…


Of course, the new company laptop came with a Windows installation, but setting up Ubuntu was far more straight forward than when I tried Fedora Core on a Toshiba Satellite M30 years ago. Although the installation instructions linked above cover the T61, most of them also work for the Lenovo Thinkpad R61.

    Lucky boy! I received an ugly Dell Laptop, 10 kg.

    And also a nokia 6300, to counterbalance :) . Fair.

    I’m not jealous about your notebook, but that mobile phone looks fine ;-)

    I just updated my mobile plan, adding a data option (T-Mobile charges 9 Euro cents per minute for EDGE) to be able to check my e-mails even when the hotel does not offer WiFi access.
