I need to mount a disk partition that has ben formatted in

I've read man xine and the two options they suggest, the down arrow

I need to buy a laptop in the next week for a trip. I don't think I can
get a laptop loaded with linux during that time so I will likely just get
an XP machine and either remove XP or dual boot it sometime down the road.
So, my question, any laptop suggestions that would play well with linux?

Okay, I figured that. But what initiates the sync? And how often? And
does it have an agression algorithm if it's not had a good sync in so
many hours/days? And where is this all configured?

I'm using a Thinkpad R40. Got it for SGD$1,600, which equates to
slightly less than USD$1,000. Brand new. A few caveats though :
1. No PS/2 port, so you need to get a USB mouse
2. 802.11b is an option you may need to purchase separately
3. Celeron processor (1.8GHz) -- but works with XP
I am currently using a Toshiba 6100 and it is a piece of junk.
I have had it for 5 months and it has required service 3 times for hardware failures.

This would be my preferred solution, as well. Otherwise, I believe the
following would work, as well.
Kmail stores all your messages in ~/Mail, that is, a Mail subdirectory in
your home directory. Using your login, configure Kmail as you would like it.
Then, under her login configure Kmail

So they've fixed it I guess. There was a problem when it first came out.
My recommendation is an Apple Powerbook - my daugher got one for school and
it's great! We're running X and OpenOffice on it.
