Lifebook S6510 - Part 3; Networking, Software And Drivers
Blog I have continued to make good progress in moving to the new Lifebook S6510. This may turn out to be a driver problem on the Lifebook, or firmware in the Linksys router. The Lifebook S6510 seems to be a bit of a special case, just because it is so new.

Vista Vs. XP: The Final Retreat
Blog My Fujitsu Lifebook S6510 is running Windows XP Professional again, and I have no intention of spending any more time or effort on Vista until Vista SP2 comes out, at which point I might consider it again.

More Pleasant Surprises With Ubuntu
Blog If it continues to go this way, what I will probably do is try loading Ubuntu on the newer Lifebook S6510, and see how it works there. Then I kept finding more and more problems, until they finally became so serious that I had to give up and go...

Wireless-N Networking And Linux
Blog I am doing this testing on my primary laptop, a Fujitsu Lifebook S6510, with a built-in Intel 4965AGN wireless adapter. With Windows XP Professional, it detects both, connects to the Wireless-N network with no problem using WPA2 security, and gives...

Maybe Vista Really Is Getting Better
Blog This laptop (Fujitsu Lifebook S6510) has the optional 1 GB of "TurboMemory", and I can guarantee you that the previous times I ran Vista I could not see anything unusual about the suspend/resume speed.

Vista SP1 - Now Installed And Running

A Few Minor Windows XP Glitches
Blog I've been meaning to mention a couple of odd things I have come across on my Lifebook S6510, so I'd best get it out of the way now. As I expect Vista SP1 to be available soon, and XP SP3 not long after that, I suppose I will be playing "disc jokey...
