I am a native speaker of English, but I haven't a clue what you're
asking. What exactly do you mean by "pin down"? What do you mean
by "smeared"? (I assume you *don't* mean that your child smeared his
peanut butter and jelly sandwich all over it, but I don't know what
you *do* mean.) And if you're only
using it as a print server anyway, who cares? Would you be so kind
as to explain in less techno-slang terms exactly what the problem is and
exactly what you are trying to accomplish. I have an old laptop too,
with an LCD screen and a neomagic 2160 chipset. So I'm familiar
with the hardware. But I still have no clue what you are talking
about.
