I finally got my IBM T40 to a point that it is very usable and mostly stable. (When I say mostly stable, that means it about half as much as w1nD0w$ does, i.e. once a week or less) OS development/debugging is generally pretty abusive to computers, so I need stability. Anyway, I wrote up a page or two of how I configured my machine and thought I would make it public. Debian GNU/Linux on a IBM T40
