If you care about power, you'd probably be better off with a low-power

which will save some more power.
I've been using my X61s with sid for the past 2 years and haven't had a
problem. Everything works, with free software (exc

Hi again John.
I installed Debian 2.1 to my Thinkpad 560 using a Dlink ethernet adapter

automagically detected the card and set it to eth0.

Hi,
Yes, I was under the impression that I had to use the tecra
