Using what works
I agree with Glenn. While the advantages to 'upgrading' are incremental, the DOWNSIDE can be debilitating. 8.04 works with my Audigy 2 soundcard, 8.10 doesn't. And HAL doesn't see my mouse through a KVM switch, so it modifies xorg.conf upon boot-up. After three times, I plugged my 8.04 drive in, and restored sound and mouse. "New" does not mean good. New means different.

RE: building 2.6.24 in an intrepid environment
What's in Intrepid that's NOT in Hardy? (or 'Studio') Since Studio is built on a LTS package (8.04), that's enough support for the next few years. Plus it has RealTime. If RT is that important to you, consider using it. SkipF Hull, Massachusetts -- Original message -- From: "Gregory Boehnlein" > Has there been any progress on an RT kernel package for Intrepid?

Re: HP tx2510us installation problems
Have you thought about 'chilling' the PC before installing. If that doesn't work, perhaps an hour in the freezer might get you past your trouble spot. You don't have to chill the battery- it'll be better warm.

I looked to the non-studio support and found issues described similar to mine, a temperature error during installation that shuts down the notebook very early in the installation. But no solutions yet. I'm hoping for some advice, links, etc. Thanks for your time.
