Looks a bit sparce to me, more colour damn it! more colour!


Actually I am going through a minimalist phase just now and like a clean desktop, free of wallpapers and such. Consequently I think this is looking very nice :-D

Erm, did you try holding down the power button for a bit (say 10-15 secs?) Thats what always worked on all the laptops without a reset button I've ever crashe....er...used.


AROS kills off the BIOS and that is what controls the power button on this Laptop... so I could hold it down for several min without it doing anything...

With Toshiba's, at least, that will force a suspend.  The machine will be shut off, but when you attempt to restart it, it will restore itself to the crashed/locked state.   Reset switch (instant or held, either one) does nothing.

Indeed, the only way to recover is to spin it down (hold power for 5+ secs) then unplug from power source and remove battery, wait 10+ secs, and reinsert battery, plug back in, hit power.

Seems a bit more battery freindly to me.

My stepdad's Toshiba had that problem, we had to yank the battery out when it crashed!

Nice pics


Cheers Dude, yup that was my bigest problem with AROS on it. I would do something weird (like open a progam ;-)) and it would lock up... leaving no option but to pull the battery...

That's a nice laptop
 


Click back a picture, and have a look at the front of the Laptop, it looks even better there :-)

The Laptop itself is very nice (Very powerful!), and only just over and inch thick when closed!

One drawback is that it has no reset button... :-(

There are few native appz yet but that should change now that there is native GCC and aros matures more and more! and no amiga appz wont run unless you call running them under AROS UAE good enough :):
