i think this is a great thread but the title need to be more focused.

IBM Thinkpad R60
Installed dual boot with Ubuntu and FC5. Just got the machine

1) Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty - Gnome desktop only
Wireless is fine. Can connect to 128bit WEP wireless AP.
Inconsistent connection to projector. Works sometimes at 1024 resolution, other times must reboot but get only 640 resolution.
Virtualisation with virtual box no problem
GLX gears gave the following: 4207 frames in 5.0 seconds = 841.366 FPS

2) Fedora Core 5 - Gnome desktop only
Wireless cant work!
Havent tested fully.

I am looking for an affordable wireless camera that can be controlled by Linux laptop. Please contact me if any. The ones I have been seeing is about RM900+
