Kind of using the best of both worlds? This happens by default - the first thing the lib (50/70 - can't speak for the others) does is copy the memory to disc, but then it keeps powered if you have it set to suspend. When you switch it on, it restores from memory if the power is still there, or from the disc if the memory is cleared by a power down. _ Join the worlds largest e-mail service with MSN Hotmail. http://www.hotmail.com ** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ - Archives ---TO UNSUBSCRIBE--- Reply to any of the list messages.

Re: [LIB] Solar Panels
Date: Tue, 30 Apr 2002 08:30:39 -0700 (PDT) From: Kevin McClelland [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [LIB] Solar Panels On Mon, 29 April 2002, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote Date: Mon, 29 Apr 2002 16:39:54 -0500 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Solar Panels There was some interest in using the Libretto with solar panels a while back. I think I might have found some that will work if the information I found is accurate. First I found out that the Libretto takes about a amp of current from the AC adapter when it isn't charging and is being used. Second I found that when the Libretto is off and charging it uses about .6 amp. Has anyone measured the current that can confirm these measurements? So with this I found some setups that might work. They provide about 1.2 amps or greater which would be enough to run but you'd really want to shut it off to charge otherwise it'd take about three days to fully charge the battery. In fact the libretto might not even charge when running since the method of terminating charge is when the current drops and the panel might not provide enough current to get over the limintation. Anyway two of the panels I found are sold by Realgoods. I think the url is http://www.realgoods.com The first one is the Sun Catcher Professional part # 11586 cost 345 This one looks pretty good, it comes in a case and uses Kyocera solar cells. Should get 20 years of life from them. One advantage to this one is it comes with a voltage regulator which limits the panel voltage to 12 volts so you can simply plug in the auto adapter and use it. Under full sunlight they claim about 1.3 amps but from my experience with solar if they claim 1.3 you'll get 1.1 or so useable under full direct sunlight. The second is a 10 watt panel that is sold with a prewired cigarette lighter socket. You'd need two of these. Cost is 129 for one and part # is 06-0384. They claim about .6 amps with one panel so a person is looking at about 1 amp useable under full bright sunlight. This one doesn't come with a regulator so a person would have to set something up since the panel is rated for 16.5 volts and might reach as high as 20 which would completely shutdown any aoto adapter The third is called the Notepower and like the Suncatcher comes in its own case. Its 250 and doesn't come with a regulator. That is sold seperately for an extra 100 bucks. It is rated like the others. I lost the companies name that sells it but will dig it up if anyone is interested. All of these are packable and only weigh a couple pounds. John There was a guy who did rig up a solar power system for his libretto, and used it on a bicycle touring trip a couple years back. However, he had the solar rig hooked up to a 12v battery system and powered the libretto off that so he could get extra run time in the evenings, just had to cheat the libretto into thinking it had 15v. Here is the link if you want to look through the info. There may be something you can use. http://briandesousa.com/bicycling/bikecurrent/solar.htm - 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.

[LIB] Win2K installs on 100/110s

I'd like to install it, and if anyone has a summary, I'd be happy to build an HTML page and post it, and any Libretto webmasters would be free to copy it to their site. Key points: What needs to be copied from the Win2K CD to the HD for the install? Is there a Win\Options\CAB like on the Win98 CD, and if so, what is the path? Do you need any other files/directories? If you already have Win98 on the system, will the Win2K install: Barf and quit Ask if you want to install over Win98 Ask if you want to install to a new directory Ask if you want to set up a dualboot with Win98 Tell you that you need to reinstall Win98 afterwards, and customize it for dualboot (I don't THINK so, I think Win2K has to be installed AFTER Win98 to avoid problems)? Are there any files outside of the Win2K CD you'll need? Floppy drivers? Win2K, or use Win98? The only Win2K specific file I see on the Toshiba site for 110s is the Power Extensions - should I use that one or the one from Win2K? What is the recommended BIOS level for Win2K on a 110? 6.5, 7.3, 8.0, or 8.1? I'm considering just buying a 40Gig IBM Travelstar, since they're only $148 at newegg.com. Then I can install clean. All I'll need at that point is another hard drive handle. Does anyone know a place that sells them at a REASONABLE price? Last time I looked, one site wanted $20, and I'd rather build my own from scratch than pay that! But I really want a spare handle, so I can leave the current one on the Win98 20Gig that's in the system, so swapping is as fast as possible if needed.

[LIB] Libretto L-series Drive Compatibilty

I recently upgraded from an L100 to L1, and the first thing I did was swap the drive out. I eventually settled on a 20GB Toshiba, but I would like to upgrade to something bigger (and pass this one off to another project). However, I ran into some problems. I tried a Fujitsu before, and found that they would not fit because of the shape of the L1's drive plug, it has a plastic brace which requires drives with no obstructions above the IDE pins. The Fujitsu didn't fit. I've looked at IBMs and they appear to have a couple obstructions which look like they may hit the plastic braces. Are we stuck using Toshiba drives only? On another note, doesn't WinXP seem a lot slower than Win2k on the Crusoe? Even with all the effects turned off, unncessary services disabled, and running about the same memory footprint (~62MB) things just seem a bit sludgy under XP?

Re: [LIB] Win2K installs on 100/110s
Date: Wed, 1 May 2002 08:28:35 +0700 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [LIB] Win2K installs on 100/110s How large is that directory? My Win2K CD is at home, not here... Don't know - have CD, have no CD drive! But I know the entire CD was 490MB when copied to a desktop HDD. So the floppy drivers with Win2K will work? Absolutely - EVERYTHING autodetected 1st time and EVERYTHING worked, including my combo card and network/Internet connections. AFAIK the floppy won't work with Win'2K without the BIOS 8.1 upgrade (no kidding) but I wasn't inclined to verify that first hand. DOS boot floppy created from Win98? I used my existing Win'98 emergency/recovery boot disk - CD to HDD copy (in a desktop) Since I have the CardSoft Card Socket Services, I was actually just going to use them to xfer the files from a CompactFlash card after booting to DOS. Groovy! Now I know why you want the WINNT directory size... - Win'2K install - create partitions beyond 8GB * - Win'2K service packs - IE6 E, IE6. No thanks. IE5.5SP2 and Communicator4.79 only ;-) I'm using IE6 a lot, am having (and have had) no problems at all. In my case, Win'2K+IE6 is a lot better than Win'98+IE5.5 * including reserving the hardware (BIOS) hibernate space I'm not using any disk/overlay managers or anything like that. How much space, where? Just create the 8Gig, then leave about 1-200 Megs after that What I suggest is either:- (1) -- create first partition(s) from DOS boot disk, maximum available -- install Win'2K -- create 78MB partition (71MB proved too small on my L110/64MB RAM) -- do as you wish with the remainder or (2) -- create first partition(s) from DOS boot disk, and on the last partition, select size one step below the maximum available (so approx 8GB if you go for a single partition, less 7 MB) -- install Win'2K -- create 7MB buffer partition (7MB FAT16 is smallest partition possible) -- create 78MB partition (71MB proved too small on my L110/64MB RAM) -- create another 7MB buffer partition -- do as you wish with the remainder I guess that if you opt to have a 7MB buffer before the 78MB, it doesn't matter if you create it before installing Win'2K (ie from DOS) or after. NB(1) -- the 7MB partition(s) must be FAT16 (too small for FAT32) NB(2) -- the 78MB partition size was determined with a fair bit of testing and verifying - it may not have been especially elegant, but AFAIK the end result was definitive. Certainly on my setup, the next available size down (71MB) definitely ended too soon, and the following buffer partition would get trashed (ie not just corruption of data, it would need a complete re-format). I have a hunch that the BIOS hibernate dumps the data backwards - ie it starts at the point the BIOS sees as the end of the drive (NOT the real end, out at 30GB, obviously; and NOT the phoney end that the BIOS reports in order to reserve the hibernation space). It then writes towards the beginning. So if your hibernation zone ends too soon (too small and/or too far forwards), the partition AFTER that *WILL* get trashed (because the file system data for that partition is right in the firing line). If your partition starts too late (too small and/or too far back), it could be a very long time before you see any symptoms. So even when I figured I'd got the whole thing sorted, I thought the 7MB buffer AFTER the hibernation zone was still A Very Good Idea Indeed (TM) However, it's just my personal theory based on a lot of deduction and speculation and trial and error. I've read nothing that confirms (or rebuts) any of this. (formatted or not?) I did. Then I filled the 7 78MB partitions with .JPGs (ie leaving zero free KB) so I could see (literally) what got overwritten (and what did not) when I booted to a DOS prompt and hibernated (ie simulated a hardware BIOS hibernate). then the rest partitioned however I wish? Only if you upgrade the BIOS to 8.1 before you do anything else! ;-) I had forgotten that I don't need to worry about an overlay with Win2K, so I guess I could use any 40Gig. Is IBM or Toshiba better? They cost about the same. Mine is a 30GB Fujitsu. I'd definitely get an IBM in preference to a Toshiba - from virtually everything I've ever read, and because my OE Toshiba failed after less than 6 months (I know the latter reasoning alone is not entirely logical/rational but for me it reinforced the former dramatically). AFAIK the IBM has a 3 year warranty. What is the recommended BIOS level for Win2K on a 110? 8.1 compulsory, mandatory, nothing else will do; do it before anything else (ie do it on your existing setup) OK, OK, I take the hint, I'll update the BIOS first ;-) Do it NOW!

Panasonic battery of the same size are rated 1500 mAh, and 17x67 mm Panasonics from L1x0 battery are rated 1250 mah I really fail to understand why so many companies use panasonic cells. Panasonic must have a really good sales team. I have always found panasonics to be under capacity and short lived.
