gateman9's Journal: May I have more gruel, sir?

Sigh...had to take Linux off the laptop. Seing as how I won't spring for the $150 mimi-PCI card from IBM to enable the standard ethernet port, and I couldn't figure out how to get the PCMCIA sockets to start before authentication (trust me, I read and re-read the scripts a hundred times in the last three weeks). Maybe I'd have more luck with SuSE, but I've only got the live CD.

Sigh, so Windows is going back on, since its about the only way to get all the little bells and whistles to work. Ah well, at least I got the servers (it's amazing what you can find in dumpsters behind old tech companies).
