Hibernation support is enabled in the power settings and the device manager shows ACPI power devices. I even installed the power saving driver (something.vxd ?) for the Libetto 100, in case that helped but no change. > > It will do a hardware hibernation (graphic of tosh writting to hard disk) when I hold the power button for 3 seconds and similarly when the battery dies, although this seems to be triggered by the Tosh as opposed to the OS since I never see the low battery warning, just the battery LED flashing. > > I don't have an option to hibernate from either the start menu or shutdown dialog. I thought that Windows 98 supported this, but maybe I've been using Win 2000 for to long now. Can anyone set my mind to rest on this, it's not critical, but has been bugging me for weeks now? > I have never used Win98 on my libretto, but you might want to try Dr. Xins site. He made a program that will force suspend and hibernation with a click on a desktop icon. I have used it under Win2k and I think Win95 and it worked fine then. I know Win98 has some hibernation issues,, so maybe that is why it is not showing up as an option. www.fixup.net Check the downloads section, he explains the use of the programs in greater detail in his Tips section. ------------------------------------------------- Get your free @Elvis e-mail account at Elvis.com! http://www.elvis.com ************************************************************** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ - Archives -------TO UNSUBSCRIBE------- Reply to any of the list messages.
