Re: [LIB] Hardware hibernation in L110

I can't remember exactly, but I don't think that loss of the pagefile will cause damage to the OS. What is your opinion? If you hibernate, the OS gets stopped short. When it comes back, it will try and carry on where it left off, and will expect the swap files to be where it left them. Only you'll have just trashed them with the hibernate data... Blue screen of death seems a likely next option... I was about to (attempt to) say exactly the same thing.

My libretto 110 has been updated to the latest BIOS (8.1) and has all the Toshiba power saving features installed (hairy lightbulb etc). 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? Same disconcerting feeling going from W95 to W98...Under StartShut Down choose Standby, and you'll get Stand By (rather cerebral observation, eh?) where the Lib will write the current config to RAM and then go to sleep. Pressing the power buttton for a few seconds (beep) will resume the Lib from Standby. For hibernation, it sounds like the settings in your Power ManagementAdvanced are already set to hibernate When I Press the Power Button on my computer. So, to hibernate in W98 press the power button and hold for a few seconds, as you observed. As for Standby, press the power button for a few seconds to resume from hibernation. The low-battery hibernate is controlled in Power ManagementAlarms. You can specify the warning and action at 2 battery conditions.

When I have the AC adapter connected it will reboot with no notice and give me wierd errors under windows. Running on battery power gives me no problems. This all seems to have happened after the Libretto locked up so bad the reset button wouldn't work and I had to remove the battery and power supply to get it to reset. Everything else seems to work ok- it still charges and the brick will power it except for the above problems. So my question is- do you think I have a bad brick or could I have a problem with the mainboard power supply? A new brick is only 60 bucks but I don't want to spend the money if I don't have to.

I installed a 20GB drive into my 50CT and, after *much* cursing (we're talking cursing on a grand scale here) I got the right EZBIOS working. However, data on my large partition at the end of my drive (9GB-20GB) was getting corrupted, despite it being well out of range of the standard hibernation area at cylinder 1016-1024 or thereabouts. I left space at the very end of the drive and, guess what, no corruption. So I'm guessing my 50 is hibernating by making calls through the EZ-BIOS int13 replacement. but this doesn't really make sense - how does it know to use the extended int13 when reloading on resume My brain hurts. If anyone has the canonical answer to this, it would be appreciated. And if someone wants to send me a drive walker or other mythical beast, I'll do the search and find out exactly where the thing is hibernating to...

Might be a nice experiment for someone who uses IE? Before I got my 30GB HDD, and when my 4.3GB was fit to burst, I did a lot of Cookie/History/Temporary Internet file stomping; although it may not have been the most scientific of appraisals, it left me with a relatively confident hunch that they are unequivocally stompable (ie in a way that I know page/swap files are not). As far as I could tell, it's all stuff that IE looks for and, if it's been zapped, recreates a default setup. The critical thing being though (I suspect) that you were stomping them when the system was running, rather than pausing it mid-operation, stomping them, and completing the operation.

My libretto 110 has been updated to the latest BIOS (8.1) and has all the Toshiba power saving features installed (hairy lightbulb etc). 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.

Hi Mike, the ltr I got did not mention specifically which phones are CDMA or TDMA. However a comparrison of all USA models can be found at: http://www.nokiausa.com/phones/compare/compare_results/1,4530,phonecode%3A83 90|SRC-C,00.html Just click on the Service provider you want to compare, Verizon comes up empty it seems. I guess one could find an older phone from Nokia that did the job but would it be tri-mode? I was leaning towards Moneyrola myself. Motorola shows which are CDMA or TDMA, here's their URL's: http://commerce.motorola.com/consumer/QWhtml/phone_cdma.html http://commerce.motorola.com/consumer/QWhtml/phone_tdma.html This site mentions Nokia IR and All Libretto's, haven't read it all through as I found it a min ago. http://www.freecomms.co.uk/Ringtones/infra-red.asp I'll have to stop by a Verizon store and ask questions. I also emailed Verizon in hopes that they will be able to provide more info, maybe a new phone from Nokia is on the horizon. From the Audiovox site: Several Audiovox phones are data capable and can hook up to a computer. These models are: CDM135, CDM135XL, CDM4500, CDM9000, CDM8000XL, CDM9100, PCX1110XL. A data cable is needed to hook up your phone to your computer. It connects the phone to your serial port of your PC computer. http://www.audiovox.com/cgi-bin/ncommerce3/ExecMacro/catalog_wirelessTelepho nes_CDMA.d2w/input?cat=596 for more detail but nothing about IR found yet.

[LIB] Linux sound
Date: Tue, 23 Apr 2002 23:04:01 +0100 (GMT/BST) From: Digby Tarvin [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Linux sound I have just gone through the process of installing SuSE Linux 7.3 onto a 20GB hard drive, and am trying to figure out if I have configured the audio hardware optimally. The YaST2 automatic installation/configuration tool did not seem at all up to the task, and failed to configure any hardware even in manual mode when I tried to spell out what it should find.. The 'alsaconf' utility was much more sucessful, and one I told it to search for 'legacy ISA' hardware, it actually succeeded in locating it even correctly assigned the interrupt level, and played the standard test audio. Now I am wondering if someone who is more familiar with sound hardware on PCs, and the Libretto in particular, can advise me what to look for to see if I have everything configured optimally. Here is what 'aplay' reports seeing: /proc/asound aplay -l Yamaha OPL3-SA3: 1 [card1] / #0: Yamaha OPL3-SA3 Directions: playback capture duplex Playback subdevices: 1 Capture subdevices: 1 Playback subdevice #0: subdevice #0 Capture subdevice #0: subdevice #0 And /proc/asound/sndstat gives /proc/asound cat sndstat Sound Driver:3.8.2-980706 (ALSA v0.5.11 emulation code) Kernel: Linux rover 2.4.10-4GB #1 Fri Sep 28 17:20:21 GMT 2001 i586 Config options: 0 Installed drivers: Type 10: ALSA emulation Card config: Yamaha OPL3-SA3 at 0x370, irq 5, dma 10 Audio devices: 0: Yamaha OPL3-SA3 (DUPLEX) Synth devices: NOT ENABLED IN CONFIG Midi devices: NOT ENABLED IN CONFIG Timers: 7: system timer Mixers: 0: Yamaha OPL3-SA3 I am guessing that the 'NOT ENABLED' lines indicate something that wasn't enabled by the config program, but I am not sure if there was a reason for that, or if Libretto has the necessary hardware which will not be used until some more configuration is done. Can anyone explain the organization of the sound hardware on the Libretto, and how things like 'FM Synthesis', 3D sound support and MIDI fit in with a straight forward AD and DA converter which presumably all that is necessary to play basic/record linearly sampled audio? For comparison, here is what 'aplay' reports on the same version of Linux installed on a desktop. There seems to be a lot more there, but I don't know that the effect is.

Agreed - so yes, the worst case scenario could be worse than I described. So, my revised hunch / further speculation... ;-) Everything on that partition is expendable - what would the worst case now be? That the partition needs formatting? I also suspect that might actually never happen - if the FAT is right at the beginning, and the hibernation data is written (starting) from the end of the partition, backwards - and the space you have to reserve (78MB) is several MB bigger than the amount of data actually written... ? ** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ - Archives ---TO UNSUBSCRIBE--- Reply to any of the list messages.

[LIB] Linux FDD
Date: Wed, 24 Apr 2002 01:49:31 +0100 (GMT/BST) From: Digby Tarvin [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Linux FDD Another question before I have a look at it myself: Has anyone tried getting the driver for the Libretto PCMCIA floppy drive to work on kernel 2.4.10 or similar? How about 100CT FIR ? Anywone else tried SuSE 7.3? What other distributions are popular, and what are the good and bad points foind? I think we have occasionally had polls of operating system types on the list, but I don't recall a breakdown of which Linux distributions are in use. I would be interested in knowing what other people are using. and what hardware they have gotten working, and what hardware is working. Here is my contribution so far. I could give a detailed step-by-step procedure if anyone wants it, although I suspect a lot things have been gone over before... Old Distribution: Red Hat 5.2 Installation method:Floppy Boot, PLIP Network install Disk: Toshiba MK4309MAT 4327MB Current Distribution: SuSE Linux 7.3 Installation method:Hard disk boot, SCSI CD install Disk: IBM-DJSA-220 20GB Harware that worked 'out of the box' SCSI: Adaptec PCMCIA 152x working LAN:3COM 3c563 - working Modem: 3COM 3c563 - works on RH5.2, not yet tested SuSE graphics: Xaccel laptop server (commercial Linux X server) Audio: 3.8.2-980706 (ALSA v0.5.11 emulation code) manual installation, record function not yet tested. FIR:untried Floppy: not yet tried Enhanced Replicator:USB recognised by system, but havn't tested. Other comments: The automatic setup for SuSE resulted in an XF86 install which accepted 800x480 as a resolution, but when booted was 800x600 with only 800x480 visible, which was hard to use. I didn't spend time trying to get 800x480 working properly as Xaccel installed and worked very easily. Although I havn't yet worked out how to get 1024x768 on an external monitor. comes with 'libapm - TOSHIBA Libretto BIOS Setup Program' which seems to work well out of the box. I used a dedicated logical drive to hide the hibernation area on the 20GB drive as follows: major minor #blocks name 3 0 19535040 hda 3 11566306 hda1 Windows 3 21566306 hda2 BSD/OS 3 31558336 hda3 Spare 3 4 1 hda4 EXT 3 5 136521 hda5 / 3 6 96358 hda6 swap 3 7 530113 hda7 /var 3 82104483 hda8 /opt 3 9 618471 hda9 /home 310 80293 hda10 hibernation 3112104483 hda11 /local 3125245191 hda12 /use 3133919828 hda13 spare Regards, DigbyT -- Digby R.

I believe the boot options for hibernate/standby are different in the 2 series (I have a L100), but could be wrong. I can check later if you'd like. Well, I've been lucky, never having had problems with the hibernate/standby settings on my L50 or L70 on multiple reloads of Windows OSs that other have. But from the nightmares other's have reported, I've always been leary about taking any deviations from my proven methods in installing and setting up the Windows and Toshiba power saving drivers. So since I've not been getting feedback... I went ahead and set BIOS to 'Powerup = hibernate' 'Standby = no limit' as an experiement. Shutting down the system from Start Shutdown Standby put the system in a limitless state of standby without actually shutting down power entirely and losing data in RAM. The system woke up fast this way hours later, but I noticed a couple things. The setting in BIOS didn't stick. It's back to 'Powerup = boot', but selecting 'Standby' from the Shutdown Windows window still puts the system into an endless state of standby. A case of Windows overriding BIOS I guess. I hope I haven't screwed up things now, and won't find the problems others have reported. I was hoping to hear from someone who'd experimented with all this. I've set Windows power management back to 'Always On' for AC and battery. With 'Powerup = boot' reset in BIOS, I'm hoping things will go back the way they were.
