    Linux Mint
    There are threads started by myself on 9.04 Mint, 10.04 and 10.10. I avoid 11.04 because in older machines the graphics don't play well and I don't like the "improved" vertical slider. CF-29 Mark 3 and less I use 10.04.
    code:
    Will give you the graphics information for your CF-18.

    freedesktop.org - Software/xinput_calibrator works with 10.10 and 11.04. Instructions in 10.10 thread. Post 1.
    This is for the CF-30 but gives the clearest instructions.

    10.04 is different. And the information is not mix and match between releases.

    I think Klonsdale is using Mint.

    Just for fun I entered "ubuntu mint klonsdale" (no quotes ) in place of TEST in: TEST site:forum.notebookreview.com/panasonic - Google Search
