It's hard to stay on the trailing edge, I know. Sometime soon I've got
to see how Ubuntu works with my old P-133/32MB laptop. I'm hoping to get
it working as a remote *wireless* terminal. But I might have to do some
tweaking to arrange that, the wifi card I have is a CF one with a PCMCIA
adapter; there's some native support in the kernel but you need to give
it some firmware to feed to the card.
