[tde-users] Re: Trying to install TDE on a (relatively) old Debian (9.13)

said Michele Calgaro via tde-users: | I don't have your hw details, but I have debian trixie + TDE testing | installed on an old 2011 laptop and it works without any issue. Maybe | you should give a recent debian another try before aiming for older | versions? I understand your computer won't be connected to the internet, | but Debian is a rock solid distro and I am surprise you would not be | able to install it on an old computer, as long as the architecture of | your computer is still supported (I assume it is 386?) I have Trixie and TDE testing running just fine as well on a 2008 ThinkPad X200. And it isn't even slow. I do wish that the Express Card were good for something -- apparently there is a USB 3.0 adapter that will work with external devices, but I've never seen one. (Alas, I have a world of PCMCIA stuff that work with some older portable machines I have, but backward compatability is now more a joke than a desired attribute. Would be great to be able to use a PCMCIA floppy drive, for instance.) -- dep Pictures: http://www.ipernity.com/doc/depscribe/album Column: https://ofb.biz/author/dep/
