Libretto L1?

I think one of the reasons there is not much discussion about the L1 on this list is that it would be hard to truly classify the L1 as a Libretto, size-wise. It's more like a regular notebook. It is not very interesting to me for that reason. Too bad they didn't retain the same size or slightly smaller than the 100/110 series. No one at Toshiba asked *me* about it... grin.

The giveaway is that the fault is also visible on the external monitor connection, and windows may drop the video mode to 16 colours (though this is hard to see with the screen nasties!) I've had the machine in question, and the fault was due to solder joints cracking on the video ram. This ram is situated on the *bottom* of the board, under the protective plastic visible in the pcmcia slot. It's also right at the outside edge. Although the machine in question has had a rough life, it looks as if this area is sensitive to board movement in the same way that the main ram is sensitive to fat disc drives being inserted. So have a care while inserting pcmcia cards, guys and gals...repair is not easy without specialist tools, and not guaranteed with them...

Screens
Date: Mon, 2 Apr 2001 22:42:01 -0700 From: "Marc @ American Elevator" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Screens It is like having the best of both worlds though, with the full-size keyboard, monitor and mouse when I'm at my desk. And the LCD screen doesn't get any hours on it this way as it is blanked automatically when using the external monitor port or closing the lid. I've used the 100 and 110's as my only computers using the 2 kinds of port replicators (docks) ever since the 100 first came out. I use the PS/2 port for the keyboard and the serial port for the mouse when using the non-intelligent dock. The monitor-out port works very well on both docks. The enhanced dock doesn't work very well with my 110 for some reason. So much for enhancements. What I have learned using W95 on the 100 and W98SE on the 110 is that neither likes the suspend, resume, or any other shortcut to undocking. They ultimately result in having to reset the machine, if not after the first cycle, surely after a few times. The only thing that I've found that works reliably time after time is simply to shut down the computer prior to undocking, then go through the whole normal rebooting process again once you have taken it out of the dock. This is kind of a pain though and I'd appreciate any tips you all could offer on this topic. I'm using BIOS 7.30 on my 110 with W98SE if that makes any difference.

I exchanged it once, but the new one does the same thing. However, a slightly older one that I have access to works fine. Often when I attempt to power on the Libretto in the dock the power light comes on but the disk light does not, and the system just sits there for as long as I have cared to wait. It doesn't even put up the Toshiba screen (which normally comes after one or two blinks of the disk light.) The reset button has no effect unless I first power down the dock. With power removed from the dock, the reset button causes the system to display the Toshiba screen (without the picture of the dock) and come up. The reset button itself also often provokes the hang if the dock is powered on. The problem seems to come in several levels of intensity. At first I though it might be heat related, but sometimes it works hot and fails when cool. When the system is being most cooperative several power cycles will work, but a reset will often hang. When it is being less cooperative only one in several power cycles will work without hanging and every reset will hang unless the power to the dock is off. Sometimes the Toshiba screen with dock picture is corrupt with extra red pixels here and there, and "Starting Windows 98" comes up as "arting Windows 98." Usually once DOS or Windows is running everything seems to be fine, but sometimes the Windows screen becomes corrupt and Windows hangs (even here powering down the dock seems to unhang Windows, though it crashes soon thereafter). The two new docks that display these problems have serial numbers beginning with X8. The older one that works perfectly no matter how many times I reset it, power-cycle it, or leave it running for hours has a serial number beginning with 98. The Libretto by itself never shows any such problems. I have tried updating the Libretto BIOS to several versions including 8.00, but it has not helped. Has anyone seen anything like this? Could the newer docks be somehow slightly incompatible with an "older" 110? (It can't be much older as neither the computer nor the dock was made for too long.) I don't know to what extent the computer's internal bus is extruded out through the expansion connector, but it almost feels like a bus timing issue. I vaguely remember something that suggested that the dock has some non-volatile configuration memory. The note talked about changing a dock's identification number so Windows could associate two different hardware configurations with two different docks. Unfortunately, I can't find this note anymore. If there is non-volatile memory, perhaps it is somehow misconfigured?

Also, do any Toshiba's come with FireWire or are they not going along with that standard? I hate the Sony's but they have a machine similar to the Portege that I won't buy because it doesn't have IR and it has a touchpad instead of a pointer... but at least it has USB and FireWire. Given the choice, I NEED my IR, but I hate to buy a computer in 2001 that still doesn't support FireWire... Any opinions welcome... Thanks, David = [EMAIL PROTECTED] __ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!

They might declare it endangered. Then you'd be stuck with maintaining it's habitat in pristine condition! Seriously, it sounds like a noisy chip.
