thinkpad r61e

Post by GrayWizardLinux »

has anyone loaded mint on the Thinkpad r61e series?

I had it working on an old r51 I believe it was - but that pooped out and looking at the cheapest basic model and wondering if anyone had any issues or successes.

thank you.

Greetings to Husse and Clem!!!

Any info? Comments would be greatly appreciated. I have a feeling all is well; but hate to buy this and there are issues.

Thank you.

thank you magnusb. I guess there are a few more issues than with the older one I had and also with using celena. I do appreciate the link info greatly.
