This is probably going to kill you but it is a Lenovo X220 with an SSD and Ram upgrade. I know it is old and cluncky just like this Yeti.

Is that Linux Mint?

AuroraZero

Yeah on this one it is, I usually run Slackware but running Mint. It works ok except the Intel wireless card seems to mess with it a bit.

Configuring a static IP (disabling DHCP) can help (no idea why).

I have not had a watch in years, last one I had there was a 2GB thumbdrive built into it and you connect a mini USB cable to use it. I loved that watch, might have to look into another one.

Tried it no joy, tried disabling power management no joy, tried disabling N no joy, reverted to old driver unicode no joy.

Just may have to live with it being tethered until I decide to switch back.

Works well - stable, fast, cool and as quiet as can reasonably be expected from contemporary high-consumption computer equipment.

I've ordered today a ThinkPad x260 for fun. It was cca. 130€.

I don't know the condition, it's a lottery. We'll see.

AuroraZero
