Saw this on /. and thought the list may be interested:

Talks about installing Ximian Gnome on low end machines.
Turns out that the author of the piece actually has a 100CT.

Hope someone finds it useful.

I take it you have your MP3s on some Linux partition... yes?  Guess I'll
soon be asking questions and/or searching the archives to find out what 
kind
of MP3 and other software can be run in Linux, and where to find it.

Actually, I had most of them on the fat partition, so I could play them in 
either MS or linux, but I just moved them all to make room on the windows 
partition for some debian iso images :)

The best bet for playing on the lib in linux is mpg123 which you can play 
with a big buffer and in mono, uses hardly any processor like that. 
Alsaplayer works, just, but not if anything else is playing, but it has a 
nicer interface and you can do things like going backwards and varispeed. 
It's marginal sometimes on the clocked 70 though, so mpg123 is the best bet. 
Other players are so heavy they won't work on the 70. Both those players are 
on the install list I sent you.

From: Raymond [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Subject: Re: [LIB] L50 w/damaged sound chip or fuse on MB?


Well I really DON'T think the PCMCIA cards overheating are causing the problems 
simply because the processor sits right above these cards. If they overheated, the 
CPU would obviously overheat as well and go into thermal shutdown. My experiences 
with my overclocked L50 at least show that it doesn't take much to trip the thermal 
shutdown thing (immediately after thermal shutdown, I flip the keyboard and put my 
finger on the heatplate and can *JUST* keep it there for a few seconds before it gets 
too hot to keep my finger on it ... which means its running an awful lot cooler than, 
say, my old GeForce256 where I couldn't touch it at all!). Of course, it could be 
that Toshiba went the other way with the L70 or that I've just got a really sensitive 
temp diode in my old libby ... I notice that my new libby (L100) runs a LOT hotter 
than my old one (the heat plate could get too hot to touch even for a second yet 
it'll still be happily buzzing along).


- Raymond


I was amazed how toasty those SCSI cards were when I took them out.  But as I said in 
another post... I haven't really feel for heat much in recent memory [that goes back 
at least a week or two :-)].  When I pulled the 20GB HDD out, it was hard to hold on 
very long, as you described on your overclocked L50... though I'm betting yours was 
bit hotter than my experience.

Just goes to show how well these little beasts are engineered to hold up to all that 
heat.  It's really pretty impressive.

Well when I take out ANY hard drive from my L100 after its been running for about an 
hour (NOT OVERCLOCKED!) the hard drive comes out WAY too hot to hold onto (to the 
extent that when I was installing it and had to keep putting it in and out of the 
libby, I had a piece of paper just the right size to hold onto the thing!). Even my 
overclocked L50, just after thermal shutdown, never got that hot ... perhaps the 
L50/70's were more heat sensitive (hence the lower thermal shutdown threshold).

From: Tom Wilmore [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Subject: RE:  Lib 1100 queries forwarded on behalf of Mike Hodish

I have an ff1100v, with dual boot win98se and w2k.

I have never been able to find a driver for the remote with w2k.

Memory: comes with 64mb, expandable to 96 or 128, see 
http://www.dynamism.com/1100/index.shtml

I have a 20GB drive, works fine.

I could not find anything from Toshiba that would run the camera under w2k, but Tina 
Bird pointed me at a program called Video Capturix that works, except the little 
button that is supposed to take a picture doesn't work, you have to use the mouse (or 
keys) to take a picture with Video Capturix loaded.

I had to use RATOC scsi drivers for the smart media reader, and it was not easy to get 
them to install correctly.  If I remember correctly, I had to delete the driver and 
then load the new one (as a scsi device) without rebooting.  If it rebooted before 
drivers were loaded, it found the device and assigned drivers that wouldn't work.

I think the modem worked with the w2k drivers, but there are updates 
(windowsupdates.microsoft.com?).

Dynamism said they had english drivers for all of it, but I think this is sort of 
pushing it.  The remote and video stuff is still in Japanese (this is for W98).

Hope this helps.

 Recently picked up a lib 1100 in Tokyo for ~USD 400.  I am
 looking for several things: first, the only memory expansion 
 that I can get 
 from Micsol is 32 Mb, but according to David Chien's site, it 
 will hold 
 more, I think 64?
 Anyone know where to get it?
 
 Also, I have gotten an IBM Travelstar drive... I forget if it is
 10 or 20 GB right now, having just been awake all night, but 
 it is above 8, 
 at any rate.
 Any idea if this machine has the bios limit on 8 Gb requiring ez
 bios? I did download the recommended version when discussed a 
 couple of 
 months ago, so I do have it.
 
 I am confused about the EXACT process to follow so I wind up
 with the hibernation partition. I have a hard drive adapter 
 so I can run the 
 hard disk in my desktop or in the lib. I have raneesh 
 partition freeware, 
 and can get partition magic if need be.
 
 I want to keep the japanese os, and simply install english apps.
 I have already put a few in, and there is no trouble at all, just no
 room.

Subject: Re: [LIB] Lib 1100 queries forwarded on behalf of Mike Hodish


  Since it is a much newer model, hopefully, it'll have full support for 8.4GB
HDs.  Sadly, only way to tell is to pop a bigger HD in, wipe the HD clean to
all 0's, install DOS and maybe basic Windows, hibernate, resume, then seach the
HD with WinHex around the 8.4GB boundary for signs of non-0 bytes (remember you
wiped the HD clean above).

Maybe not.  The 1100 series uses the hibernate to a file called hiberfil.sys on your 
C drive technique like some of the larger laptops.  So there is no hibernation 
region as such.  (Note: Works like a charm for me under both Win98 and Win2000.  
Haven't gotten around to putting Linux on the machine, so I have no idea how it would 
handle that.

If its anything like the later Toshiba laptops then I don't like your chances ... the 
later ones use the operating system to help in the hibernation and write a file called 
toshiber.sys (check the extension) as the hibernation file onto the C drive ... you 
might have to be content with suspend (RAM still powered) under linux ... which isn't 
really so bad I guess ... hehe

Subject: Re: [LIB] L50 w/damaged sound chip or fuse on MB?

From: Raymond [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Well when I take out ANY hard drive from my L100 after its been running for 
about an hour (NOT OVERCLOCKED!) the hard drive comes out WAY too hot to 
hold onto (to the extent that when I was installing it and had to keep 
putting it in and out of the libby, I had a piece of paper just the right 
size to hold onto the thing!).

YIKES!!

Even my overclocked L50, just after thermal shutdown, never got that hot 
... perhaps the L50/70's were more heat sensitive (hence the lower thermal 
shutdown threshold).

So it sounds like things are being engineered to work under higher heat 
conditions at the same time as engineering things to go faster and creating 
higher heat.  Sound like the latter is running out in the lead of the former 
for these little guys.

I guess it can go the other way.  Weren't the Athlon CPUs around the 800MHz 
point were generating higher heat than some of the newer faster Athlon CPUs?

Well when I take out ANY hard drive from my L100 after its been running for about an 
hour (NOT OVERCLOCKED!) the hard drive comes out WAY too hot to hold onto (to the 
extent that when I was installing it and had to keep putting it in and out of the 
libby, I had a piece of paper just the right size to hold onto the thing!).

YIKES!!

Thats what I said when I picked it up for the first time ...


Even my overclocked L50, just after thermal shutdown, never got that hot ... perhaps 
the L50/70's were more heat sensitive (hence the lower thermal shutdown threshold).

So it sounds like things are being engineered to work under higher heat conditions at 
the same time as engineering things to go faster and creating higher heat.  Sound 
like the latter is running out in the lead of the former for these little guys.

I guess it can go the other way.  Weren't the Athlon CPUs around the 800MHz point 
were generating higher heat than some of the newer faster Athlon CPUs?

Well I do know my old Athlon 550 (the original Athlon) runs a darn sight hotter than 
my Athlon XP1600+ ... but then again my old GeForce256 (again the very first GeForce 
version) also ran a lot hotter than my current GeForce2-TI ...

On the flip side, current PIII laptops routinely run way too hot to touch inside ... 
remember, none of the libbys have vents or fans (I know there are those little slots 
under the screen hinge, those hardly count) where similar form factor PIII laptops 
(such as the recently superceded Portege) have little centrifugal fans and liquid 
cooling features ...

[LIB] 100ct, big hd, boot problem...

Subject: 100ct, big hd, boot problem...


hiho,

i recently decided to equip my 100ct with a 20gb
harddrive from toshiba (MK-2018GAS), but after many
hours of experimentation and reading through
mailing list archives, i'm unable to successfully
boot from it.

having no pcmcia floppy or cdrom, i installed a dual
boot system (rh linux/windows xp) via my desktop system.

putting it back in my 100ct brings up the bootloader
(grub or lilo), but then fails to boot up the os 
successfully.

booting linux just triggers a soft/reset, while 
windows xp is more explicit in complaining that
there might have been a change in the c/h/s
settings (which is true).

i tried different partition layouts, boot parameters
and upgraded my 100ct bios to the most recent one,
but nothing helped.

do i need to install from floppy or cdrom directly,
or is there a way i can setup this system from my
desktop and then plug it into my 100ct?

cheers,
firenza
