I figured that i need to update the T510 to ThinPro 5.2 or later.
My problem is "HOW??"
Per my original post, I tried this:
1. Downloaded new ThinPro image from http://h20564.www2.hp.com/hpsc/swd/public/detail?sp4ts.oid=5226532&swItemId=vc_139586_1&swEnvOid=403...
2. installed it successfully to USB (and I can even see the files on it when browse it from my PC, and they look convincingly like a linux install)
3. Booted ThinPro T510 from USB
- T510 sits for several minutes with the single flashing white underscore on black screen
0. T510 then starts ... and is still OS kernel version 3.8.13-hp so has FAILED to update
>>>> QUESTION: given that others are succeeding with webcams on T510s by using latest ThinPro OS, and given that the above procedure has FAILED, HOW do I update from current (3.8.13) to latest (or at least 5.2) version of ThinPro OS? <<<<<
