Since this is HN a better question would be: How can I communicate with my laptop if when and if it goes online again? Can I SSH into it? Is there some program running at startup that would allow me to control it remotely?
Best of luck with getting it back.
- ekal 16y agoThe laptop runs Ubuntu Linux 10.10 and it uses a password protected log in screen. SSH is enabled. I have thought about the questions you raise but I do not have any answer for that. Thanks for your reply.
- wwortiz 16y agoWell you need some kind of service that updates your laptop's ip address like dyndns and the computer would have to log in automatically to an open network or another saved network in order for you to log in. Given that it is password protected even if you had those I would suspect that the window would be extremely short to login if any and the most likely event is your laptop being formatted. Best of luck, hope your christmas wasn't ruined because of some asshole.
