Just trying to get this thread back on topic here. Please pardon my
ignorance.
Mr.Banana is still giving out great advice, but I don't think the
original problem has been resolved yet.
Does anyone have any experience with a web-based IM client that he can
use for videoconferencing? It needs to

Neither of us want to look at porn. If we did, I'm sure we
I automatically assumed that you were running a 64 bit machine. If this
is not the case, the 32 bit patch was a slightly lower priority (because
fewer people use 32 bit) so it was just released this morning for Uruk,
which may or may not have a separate repo.

I am assuming that you are using a 64 bit machine without asking first.
I don't believe that the 32 bit kernel has been patched yet so my X60s
and other 32 bit machines are not online right now except to check if
it's my turn yet.
This must be so frustrating for you.
Yes, libreboot does use a different GRUB. Ariella, I don't have much
experience with the libreboot grub and I'm very spottily online right
now but I'll try to poke around and see if I can turn up anything useful
for you if this isn't all resolved the next time I can access the

Thank you so much for your time.
To be bluntly honest, I'm just glad I don't work in IT and I wish I

For some reason, your English skills do not seem to be as big an issue
for me. Your English isn't perfect, but neither am I and I would like to

Keep up the good work, either in Cantonese,
Yea, me too.
I'm currently running Uruk on a librebooted X60 with only two gigs of
memory and mostly staying offline.
Do I even need to do a full upgrade?
I'm just a hobbyist. My computers have nothing to do with my income.

I have had the same experience as calher. The X60 is just a software
boot--you can honestly libreboot that model just by copying and pasting
and believing in yourself. The libreboot documentation has not quite

be better off with a stable release and backports.
Keep going.

That's been my experience too. This community is very welcoming and I
feel comfortable asking questions here.
My eBay special librebooted T400 suspends. I can't remember if I've ever
needed to hibernate it.
Hibernate works fine for me on T7 with 64bit factory BIOS Thinkpads and
was always such an iffy matter on X60 tablets that I honestly don't
remember if librebooting my own made it better or worse.
Certain words and phrases keep going through my head, like
"incarceration", and "cavity search", and "death by electrocution", and
you're asking me if I want to get out of this alive?? :/
