I've asked a very similar question on two fora and received useful
feedback. I've revised my feature list.
Must:
1. be currently available from U.S. retail vendor.
2. have a physical form factor similar to a "smartphone".
3. have provision for using an _optional_ full size keyboard.

I would like to add a backup MX server for the rare times my primary MX
server here is off-line for a while. If weather predictions for the area
turn out to be true long power outages might occur and it would be nice to
have someone catch incoming mail until power is restored.

Folks,
I have a RouterBoard 2011, it has a port for an SFP interface. I have

other into a media converter and tried to establish a link to the router

This is a completely new issue here.
I'm using my Dell Latitude E5410, running Slackware-14.2/x86_64 to
configure the Ubiquiti ER-X. The laptop's eth0 IP address needs to be set
to 192.168.1.1 to configure the router's WAN port. Then I need to change the
laptop's eth0 IP address to 192.168.55

Fixed the issue by stopping/starting rc.inet1, the file that configures

I was resurrecting my daughter's old Lenovo college laptop (G530 from circa
2010) for use when working on projects in my garage - I often need to search
for parts or research problems/procedures.
I replaced the 3GB of RAM with a new matched pair of 2GB DIMMs for $35, and
just for kicks swapped

Mostly likely because your router address is 192.168.1.1 so the laptop
cannot have the same address. Pick different between 2-250.

Tomas,
On that subnet the laptop is assigned 192.168.1.4

I would like to be able to double-click on a .PLT file to have lpr launch

I have created a *.desktop file, made it executable, and placed it in

an application that I can associate with a file

Denis,
I've not closely followed this thread so my questions might have been
answered. What application you use produces a .plt output file? D
Figured it out. I needed to add %U to the exec line in the .desktop file.
Where is there a list of the various command line options (such as this %U)?
Thanks,

The *.PLT file is created by a print-to-a-file setup in Windows 2000 in VB.
You (and the other patient soles on this list) do not want me to try to
capture months of dialog on why I am doing this.

Okay. I know nothing about Windows so that explains why I asked.

Rather than clicking on it, you could set up a cronjob (or similar)
that sends everything it finds in the particular directory you "print"
it to, and automatically sends it to the printer and then deletes it.
That would make it kind of automatic, if adding a little latency.

Speaking of doing things automagically on a file event.
One could put the files to the same directory every time, and setup a
trigger on the directory change event. There would be no real delay that
way and as soon as a file shows up, it could be sent to a printer.
If you are interested in that,
