Ha,d Pop| Os installed on Lenovo T460, smooth running for simple needs. However, being a tinkerer, I got the chance to buy a Toshiba Tecra X40-E a bit battered but seemed a cheap move into 4 core heaven (for now anyway). The shell had a dink/crack on the lid and seller reported that camera and mic was non functional. After purchase, I carefully prised away the bezel and found the camera board connector was dislodged. Well it was sitting right under the crack and the impact must have been harsh. When re-attached, the camera was now shown in bios setup. So, next step was to swap the T460s 500Gb drive for the Toshiba 256 Gb one. Then reconnect power. No issues, booted to Pop! Os as if native (almost). After a bit of playing around, YT vids mostly (14inch 1920x1080 LG panel is good) I remembered I had uploaded a hardware probe from T460s. Time to check this baby out. All hardware detected, only the Synaptic finger-print reader and Micro Inc smart-card reader reported as 'failed' with note to the effect that linux kernel up to 6.3 has no drivers for those devices. Do i care? Nope. I had thought there would be more issues swapping a drive with contents for Lenovo Thinkpad into Toshiba. But all works ok. Some optimisation might be done.Most surprising thing is, mine is the first Toshiba Tecra X40-E in the database.

I installed Debian on my Surface and have to use an external network interface rather than the internal wi-fi chipset. Anyone know how to get the drivers for it?

In 1994-2004 I was luckily the owner of various unknown x86 desktops with some DOS/Windows systems mainly used to run games.
My first laptop was ASUS A3500L with Windows XP in 2004 (now replaced by Antix 21 i686, but almost unused due to relatively poor performance). The laptop was used mainly for university studies. This is the only laptop in my life required replace of the motherboard in the official service due to hardware malfunction in 2007. This laptop is unique in that it has independent media sound system on the front of the keyboard panel.
In 2009 I bought more powerful business-class laptop ASUS X71SL and used it mainly for work. This is the first laptop I have installed Linux on - Mandriva Linux 2009 ...
