At school I use 30+ redundant laptops. Kids work with these devices in 6 ict classes, that is 9 clock hours every week. Maintenance is a challenge.
I created this page as an experiment to keep a log of these machines. The goal is to install a local media wiki server in the classroom which can be maintained by students. I'll start with just a flat file.
'Type' denotes the brand and type of the laptop and the index. 'member' is the color code of the group the device belongs to. The laptops who belong to the same group are stored in a box with the same color coding

Example table.

type member kernel state action
hp530-1 ReGr-1 5.13smp battery dead change battery
hp530-2 ReGr-2 5.13smp ctrl-key broken replace key or keyboard
hp530-3 ReGr-3 5.10smp old kernel update os
hp530-4 ReGr-4 5.13smp low on ram install extra memory bank

Note: This effort is inspired by the discussion I had with Justa about the communication of the state of Techninc tools, member projects and inventory. The idea is to use a combination of color codes and index numbers. The colors express the state of the object. The number refers to a webpage on the wiki.
