Any program designed to break DRM is illegal, so as a general rule, breaking
DRM is not easy. The one exception I can think of is CSS (used for encrypting
DVDs), but that's just because the encryption is so weak that it can be
brute-forced very easily (so despite the illegality of it, all
I totally agree with you. I remember using guis like unetbootin at some
point, I also used rufus and some other stuff. Since I learned how to use dd,
that's all I need to know.
dd:
* Fast
* Reliable
* alway works
GUIs:
* Have to install
* Not always stable
* Unexpected management of your

You could use rEFInd or wipe the whole disk, then install Trisquel or another
distro.
MacOS Diskutility can be used to diminish the partition and create a new one
alongside.
You don't need rEFInd if you never dualboot or if you choose the loader each
time
dd is amazing and no one should ever need more.
I am considering installing Ubuntu 18.04.1 alongside macOS El Capitan. Did
you follow a particular guide for installing Ubuntu on the MBA?
Also, when booting Ubuntu via a live USB, before it reaches the Ubuntu splash
screen, I get the following error (which does go away):
Couldn't get
If you were basing your instructions on the relevant Trisquel manual, which
it seems that you were, it's not your fault; rather, the manual's
instructions were lacking.
I'm using a "SLS Fukkokuban Sega Saturn USB Control Pad", identical to the
good old SS pad. Works 100% with GanooLinux. No special driver / firmware
needed, no bullshit.
I mainly use it for retro-gaming with mednafen
I see :)
Thank you for all the tips and suggestions, this is wonderful :)
OK, so I did a quick test, and it seems it works with buttons, but for some
reason not axes (analog sticks). That's odd. In fact no mouse buttons seem to
work for axes. Judging by what the dialog box says, this seems to be a design
flaw or oversight rather than a bug, per se.
Actually, I
Doesn't work :/
Yes, you can. Assign a "key", and when it tells you to press the key, hover
the mouse over the box and roll the mouse wheel in the desired direction.
The reason why I thought first it was not working was because I had to
minimize the program for it to work. For some reason it doesn't work when the
program is either open nor closed, only minimized . But it's working, and
it's gold! Thanks! :D
Anyway, do you know if it's possible to set
Good to hear.
Did you just not see it in the system tray when you ran it at first?
Nvm, it's working, it's working!

It seems like there are several other things one needs to have in order to
get qjoypad to work. One of which is Xwindows which seems rather complicated
to install. Or in other words, it seems as though one has to build it.
Am I misunderstanding
> You can make the analog stick to move the mouse by setting axis 1 and axis
2 to "Mouse (Hor.)" and "Mouse (Vert.)" respectively, then ticking "gradient"
and turning the mouse speed down to 10 or so.
It doesn't seem to work :/
Hi Tiberiu,
That works just fine, do you know the cause for this issue?
Hi uboot,
The output of that command is:
nvramtool: CMOS option table not found in coreboot table. Apparently, the
coreboot installed on this system was built without specifying
HAVE_OPTION_TABLE.
ubooy thank you for your answer, I agree, at some point we have to make sure
we have a good substitution for hardware this old (hopefully in the long
term).
I guess the only problem with a Talos computer is the high price XD not to
mention the portability issue. Maybe one day get the combo
Thank you for your comments. Maybe the T420 is the way to go for now. I
didn't know the T440p was still a classic thinkpad.
Hi Beformed,
Good job flashing a T400s on your own! To have WiFi and Fn keys working, run
pm-suspend, close the lid, wait 1 minute, open the lid and enjoy.
Happy hacking!

Of course T420. Better CPU and GPU, up to 16 GiB RAM, up to 3 disk drives,
larger battery...
Now I'm trying to liberate T440p and T540p with Intel's integrated graphics,
the last generation of ThinkPad Classic without Boot Guard.
It's up to you. Both have "issues"
I like the fact IntelME is fully removed on T400, x200 etc.. but I regret not
having microcode update from Intel for this era CPUs.. (I'm not even
mentioning huge stability issue without running latest avaiable microcode
(2010)..)
T420s IntelME can
Maybe cmos battery needs to be replaced (below the keyboard)
What's the output of :
nvramtool -a
