I have a Libretto 50ct. I cannot get any network cards to work with it. I  
have a D-Link DWL 650. It keeps telling me the drivers need to be reinstalled,  
no matter what I do. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

[LIB] U100 bluetooth

Subject: U100 bluetooth

I am almost done installing slackware with kernel
2.6.12 on my U100. But I am having some trouble with
the native bluetooth. I cannot get the kernel to setup
a com port for it although it does see when it boots
and installs the usb and uart drivers for it. Does
anyone know the correct settings in the kernel config
file? Also -- does anyone know why the Atheros
wireless driver is not native in the kernel? thx

I believe your 50ct takes a PCMCIA card and NOT a cardbus card. That is the 
reason, look for an older card, that does not have the gold trim above the 
part that is inserted. Your hardware in the 50ct does not support a cardbus 
connection. A CF card inserted into a PCMCIA adapter should work.

I have been getting around 4 hours under XP. Not sure
under Linux. I'm running both command line and kde --
usually cl unless I actually need a gui:)). How does
that compare to what others are getting?

  Some laptops like my
  current one even test 
  the adapter when you plug it in and will do things
  like disable 
  simultaneous charging and running if it detects an
  adapter that isn't up to 
  spec (not sure how it does it - it could briefly
  cause a current surge to 
  test the capabilities of the adapter or it may
 send
  some sort of data back 
  down the power cable to query some smarts in the
  adapter).

 - my Dell Inspiron 9300
  monster has a Pentium M 
  2.0 and a GeForce 6800 but even when playing 3D
  games the base and air 
  vents only get mildly warm. In contrast, we've got
 a
  Sharp AL3DU at work 
  (Pentium M 2.0, GeForce 6600), the base of which
  gets uncomfortably hot 
  even when idling.

 My own rant:  I have an Insprion 9200 (2.0 Pentium
 M)
 and also a Targus universal AC/DC power adapter
 which
 claims to be 120W (had this before the notebook).  I
 got the powertip for my notebook (which is listed as
 power only - no charge).  I expected that this was
 just a CYA disclaimer because that tip also works
 with
 other lower-powered universal adapters which
 wouldn't
 be able to provide full power but it does in fact
 force the notebook into low-power mode (600 MHz, no
 charging).  The BIOS says the power adapter type is
 not recognized on boot.  Sounds like it's using
 something other than the power delivery ability of
 the
 supply to detect it.  I'd like to be able to fool it
 into working at full power.


welcome to integration. needs filtering. also sounds
like its running at too high voltage

[LIB] U100 vs U105

From: Tony Oresteen [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Subject: U100 vs U105

I noticed on Toshiba's website that they list a U100 and a U105.  I downloaded 
the spec sheets and they look to be the same.

What is the difference between a U100 and a U105?

Thanks!
