Is there a difference between the Ubuntu oem image and what you get from the Ubuntu website? Asking because when my Gen 1 AMD T14s was new it was listed as fully compatible but the trackpoint would skip due to a firmware issue specific to

My Dad had one of these when it was still new. With a pcmcia NIC and JLime I was able to then ssh into it. Realize this was long before PIs or Arduino's existed. I distinctly remember the feeling, while holding that Jornada in my hand,
