Hi Marghanita,
The only problem you may have is that the screen
resolution on the laptop may be too poor for a
decent image resolution. I'd be curious as to how
yo go though.
After quite a bit of experimentation, the good news is I now have an operational
Digital Frame.
The bad news is it isn't linux or open source. I would welcome any suggestions
for an open source/linux solution.
I've documented the project here:

I plan to use the frame in next January's Eco-Annandale Exhibition

I am experimenting, to see whether I can convert either or both NEC
Versa (2200C
& 4230 circa 1996/7) laptops into Multimedia Digital Frames...the
challenge is
as much about hardware as software. Even the floppy disk drive, I am
using on my
current laptop, makes the FD appear as a USB device and the low level
Formatting
instructions don't work.
