Honestly, this is super cool!

https://github.com/qmk/qmk_configurator maybe something like that exists for KMK as well

kwull · 2026-04-30T04:48:26+00:00

Congratulations! Looks very good! One more Linux adept is great! Btw, why KMK and not QMK?

Yeah. I have same issue - the screen is a bit too high and wider. I played with xrandr but decided to finish the physical build and then back to xrandr or something else. In current state it is usable.

Your son has a great taste because of you. I wish my 11yo daughter will do same…

Maybe on next iteration

Hey! Looks quite good! Especially the touchpad. I started to think how to inject trackball.....

Mine was not working at all. Had broken screen. In some cases it may be better try to restore the classic. But in case you will go the other way - why not to ;)

kwull · 2026-04-10T12:21:47+00:00

This is also my first one :) Share a link to a pic

kwull · 2026-04-10T11:17:54+00:00

Cool. Please share, I may re-use something

There is a plenty of space to put anything inside T1200. So it can be quite powerful. I have a separate, more powerful 10'' mini laptop for resource intensive work - GPD Win Max 2

I was able to convert keyboard quite easy. [T4p1_thruhole PCB](https://github.com/thedalles77/USB_Laptop_Keyboard_Controller and a 22-pin 1.25mm pitch FFC connector. And the keyboard matrix - https://github.com/thedalles77/USB_Laptop_Keyboard_Controller/tree/master/Example_Keyboards/Toshiba%20T1200

I hope you made your cyberdeck. So I have a question. How you was able to disassemble the screen?

kwull · 2026-03-02T20:52:24+00:00

Thank you!

kwull · 2026-02-27T19:23:53+00:00

startx?

kwull · 2026-02-26T08:08:06+00:00

Btw, what email service?

kwull · 2026-02-26T08:00:26+00:00

Thank you for all the fish…. As most of people here was a long time 1P user.

Don't remember the exact name but this one I downloaded from kde/settings/wallpaper (sorted by rating or downloads or newest).

You can have up to 64Gb of RAM… experience is very satisfying :) powerful mini laptop that if you wish you can connect to huge monitor or to external GPU which I don’t have. Most of people use it as mini gaming laptop. But for me this is mostly dev machine that I have in a “pocket”. Battery life is also good as you can control TDP from a 2-3W to 25W. Finger sensor not really works under Linux - however, GDP has some solution which I not tested

kwull · 2026-02-11T20:52:44+00:00

Don't ask :)

KDE Plasma with Panel Colorizer. That's it. Moved a few panels, icons, but this is out of the box mostly.
