oops, i thought that's a w for water. so type ssh -vv on laptop gives:

OpenSSH_4.7p1 Debian-8ubuntu1.2, OpenSSL 0.9.8g 19 Oct 2007
debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh/ssh_config
debug1: Applying options for *
debug2: ssh_connect: needpriv 0
debug1: Connecting to 192.168.1.35 [192.168.1.35] port 22.
debug1: connect to address 192.168.1.35 port 22: Connection timed out
ssh: connect to host 192.168.1.35 port 22: Connection timed out

when i did the same on desktop, there's a lot of message coming out on
screen and i was asked to put into my password. after that, connection to
laptop was established.

yes, i did that and put the results in my previous post. it doesn't work.

also, Eric, thanks for the help but your suggestion is kind vague for a
newbie like me. i do checked out for $HOME/.ssh/authorized_keys however and
it tourned out there is no such file there. on both pcs, in $HOME/.ssh/
there's only a file called "known_hosts".
