Hi James!

It is simple:
You need a second PC with a CD-ROM drive, a serial connection and DOS (see
interlnk, intersrv).
After one night a CD is transfered to the Libretto's HD.

No joke, it works slow but simple and reliable.  And so you can avoid to
open the Lib to remove the HD for preparing it in another PC.

wireless pcmcia cards

Subject: wireless pcmcia cards


Hello

I am looking into buying a wireless pcmcia card for my libretto
(yep so that I can walk around the house with it :-)
Does anybody have experience in this field? I obviously need a transmitter
of some kind, I only need a range of a few metres really.

Cheers

James

Subject: RE: Help this fuul out

Off the top of my head -

(a) Easiest option - get a 2.5" - 3.5" IDE adaptor and temporarily install 
the formatted drive in a desktop with a CDrom drive. *Do Not* try and do the 
windows install there though...

(b) Zip drives are great - all the files you need will fit onto one and you 
can run zip drives under dos. I've loaded windows directly from Zip a couple 
of times - slow but it works.

(c) pkzip and friends - takes a lot of floppies though, and the unzip stage 
needs the last disk so you can't shuffle...though I think you can copy the 
zipped disks one at a time into a common directory (been a long time, can't 
confirm that) so you can get away with just one floppy...

I'm sure you can do things e.g. with single floppy linux installs to make a 
network, or dos network cards talking to shared drives...but you'd probably 
take longer than just copying the files in teh first place.

For info (w95 is the only thing I use so I can't say for 98) you only need 
the directory that has the .cab files in it (and the other files in the same 
directory). So you don't need the whole CD.

Is there an easy way to copy the cd onto a bare (formated) drive if
you don't have a lib cdrom drive?

Just on the off-chance...flick the strip out at the top of the keyboard, 
remove the tiny screw and lift (carefully) the keyboard, and make sure the 
connector under the right hand side of the keyboard is properly home.  It's

Greetings,

Does anyone have an idea what could cause my L50 to give distorted graphics
in windows and dos applications.
Its as if I am looking through a window with bars on it and also it has 
gone
a funny colour.
I know this sounds terminal, but very occasionaly the screen returns to
normal with just the odd bit of distortion on certain icons.
I have the correct up to date driver for the graphics and the only upgrade 
I
have made is a 3gb hard drive.

Please, can anyone help ??

I would also like to know of any people in the uk that do repairs/upgrades
in the uk ???


Best regards

Martin

Thanks for the info :-)

So what is the cheapest?! Do the two companies that you mention make
a card and transmitter? I have looked on the web, Orinoco make a pcmcia
card but not a base transmitter(i think)

What I want to do is really the most basic. One PCMCIA card with a cheap 
transmitter.

 Hi James!
 
 Yes, I've done this.
 
 I have tested the Siemens I-Gate wireless LAN and the Lucent Orinoco
 wireless LAN, both in various configurations, with a Libretto and other
 PC's.
 
 My experience: Both work fine and are easy to install on a Libretto -
 provided you are familiar with IP and network basics.
 
 There are 2 basic possibilities: a so called "ad-hoc-mode", where you can
 have more PC's with wireless network cards without dedicated server;
 and the "access point mode", where you need a hardware piece, the access
 point, to make the bridge from wireless to wired LAN.
 
 Altough the "ad-hoc-mode" is cheaper (as a minimum you need 2 wireless
 LAN-cards), I do not recommend it. It works unstable and there is only very
 poor security. It is really for test purpose only.
 
 Installation may be tricky if you try to install a wireless LAN-card into a
 desktop PC with an PCMCIA-to-PCI or -ISA Adapter. Not all motherboards work
 with all cards and all operating system...
 
 Current wireless LAN's are specifed as 11 Mbit, but the real througput is
 much smaller.
 The Siemens I-Gate was not faster than approx. 3 Mbit and the range was poor
 (but it was a first-series-product and the developers promised to make
 significant enhancements...)
 The Lucent Orinoco works at a real througput of 5 to 6 Mbit, wich seems to
 be the maximum which is possible with this technology. Also the range of the
 Lucent product is much better.
 
 Within an office the range is not a problem, but it is nearly impossible to
 make a wireless connection between 2 buildings, even with external antennas,
 which increase the range.
 
 Wireless LAN cards are availble both as 16Bit PCMCIA cards and as Cardbus
 cards. Cardbus Cards are not compatible with older Librettos.

 Gerhard

 11Mbps 802.11b PC cards can be found for around $100. And wireless access

 Raymond,

 Before you import it into Excel, you need to export it from the GDB into
 CSV.  Your best bet for that is to check the HP Super Site at
 http://www.palmtop.net/super.html for the program GDBIO.

 You might also look at the Super Site for a program called GDBWin, which
is
 a Windows program to let you use the HPLX GDB files.  Works great on my
 Libretto.

Whatever you purchase, you will want to make sure it's "Wi-Fi" 
certified.  Wi-Fi certification guarantees that the products you purchase 
will interoperate with eachother.  Here's the current list:

  802.11b products are the way to go. Heck, you can bring your Libretto
  equipped with a 802.11b card and sit on someone else's front porch and 
 start
  surfing:)
 
  11Mbps 802.11b PC cards can be found for around $100. And wireless access
  point (connects to your LAN) can be found for $200 and wireless router with
  built-in 4 port LAN switch (sharing internet connection for both wireless
  and LAN) can be found for $300. They all can reach speed up to 11Mbps. 
 Intel
  has yet to release any 802.11b product.

   I've also tried Diamond's HomeFree Wireless kit and Intel's AnyPoint
   Wireless networking accessories.  I wouldn't recommend Diamond -- 
 slow and
   unreliable (and discontinued) -- but Intel has been relatively trouble
  free
   to-date and the installation was painless for the most part.
  
   I guess the one caveat is that I don't think either system conforms 
 to the
   802.11b (or whatever the wireless protocol is) specification being 
 bandied
   about these days.  However, Intel has some neat product extensions 
 planned
   for their line -- for example a portable LCD tablet specifically designed
   for couch surfing.
  
   Cheers,

   Hello
  
   I am looking into buying a wireless pcmcia card for my libretto
   (yep so that I can walk around the house with it :-)
   Does anybody have experience in this field? I obviously need a 
 transmitter
   of some kind, I only need a range of a few metres really.
  
   Cheers
  
   James
