what's a good drawing OS to put on the X61t

should i just go for windows 7

.. can a 2009 core 2 duo with 2gb ram handle windows 10

looks like wayland isn't ready for primetime with wacom tablet screens huh

Xperia keyboard has no way to turn off "capitalize first letter always". Heck this

if anyone's got a solution for me please let me know, otherwise i'll just ditch linux and try windows 7 on this thing instead

more on ui cursor lockup glitch: sometimes, haven't been able to figure out what causes it, after i use the stylus on the screen, i'll become unable to click on any windows with either the trackpoint or stylus, only on the system ui like taskbar and the top bar. also using the stylus now (install vs. liveusb) causes it to have a new cursor and the trackpoint cursor stays there and i can still move it independently with the trackpoint.

is there a way to figure out why the liveusb worked better?

hey so, thinkpad x61t

i'm running ubuntu 17.10 on it, the liveusb ran wonderfully, it detected a wacom tablet with no stylus but the tablet bit had settings, and krita worked wonderfully

after getting hdd working and installing 17.10 instead of using it live, the wacom tablet now detects both stylus and tablet and gives me more options, but now fast traces get lagged into straight lines in krita or get wobbly like they weren't before, plus other ui cursor locking glitches

how do i fix this?

oh god aaaahh if you use the button on the ThinkPad to rotate the screen the subpixel hinting gets messed up computerfairi.es/media/h1Km68i

this thinkpad is super hot

miiiiight need to clean it inside and put new thermal paste

until then tho it's running super well and i'm super happy :3

why in the world does ubuntu 17 come with mailutils, postfix and mysql installed by default ???????

hi i got this thing idk its like twitter w/o nazis i think? thats cool. idk what or how anything is tho so help a sister out PLOX
