Re: Core for a netbook??
do you have overlooked the check tool ? regarding device shipping: here in germany labdoo has central hubs to collect the devices. as of labdoo's website: https://www.labdoo.org/content/hubs-dashboard there are hubs in the USA too. so you just need to bring the device to such an hub. - don't forget the power supply ! - ;-) the further delivery goes with private people or organizations which travel to the children's homeland ! so to you it's complete free of charge (except your travel to the hub) ! before that the device will be checked, as you can see with my device (the last link in my prev. comment) nice, that you take it in your account !!! -- sixpack13 ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org

I got a fatal failure, saying the poor old machine has only a 32- bit CPU. Re-checked the CL site, and 64-bit does seem to be an absolute requirement. Rats.

I'll start with offering it to a few friends, then to anyone on the LUG; there might be some student group on campus that needs little more than a calculator and maybe a minimal word processor.

I guess the device could be this one: https://www.linux-netbook.com/system76-starling-netbook/ 2 GB ! P.S. if I still were in the possession of my old netbook (given away cause reading glasses needed) I would check to get ClearLinux on it. https://docs.01.org/clearlinux/latest/reference/system-requirements.html#system-requirements But EFI, SSE4.x ??? a check tool: https://docs.01.org/clearlinux/latest/get-started/compatibility-check.html#check-compatibility-steps my old netbooking given away to african children: https://www.labdoo.org/content/07466 maybe an option for you if you want to "retire" your netbook too ? ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org

It boots, and lets me log in, and issue a command (actually just one tap on the up-arrow) to a tab on the terminal that I set come up on login. Then it sits there, until I finally go away. When I get around to looking again (usually hours later; I haven't timed it), the command is there ready (it thinks) for me to hit enter. I don't know how much RAM it has: still the original, whatever that was.

Core for a netbook??
I have an old System76 netbook "starling," I think one of the first ones ever, whenever that was. Years ago. They were an Ubuntu shop then, and afaik still are; but I'm not. The first thing I did with it was to install the then current Fedora release. F30 is on it now, but I can't say it runs. It boots up, and then freezes. Local people who know things tell me it just isn't big enough any more. I got it to do email in waiting rooms; but I found I usually got my turn before I got into my email. That proved true even when the netbook was still quick; wifi in the places I waited was slow. So I guess I can afford a risk: would CoreOS be able to handle Alpine (formerly Pine from UW) and a browser or two? Maybe even Pan?? -- Beartooth Staffwright, Not Quite Clueless Power User Remember I know little (precious little!) of where up is. ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org
