I would think if it is DOS... do you run it inside a DOS windows in Windows 9x? If so there is a size icon on the top toolbar of the dos window... look for settings such as 7x12 or 3x4 That is the pixel resolution and you should be able to find a size that would fit. If you run it in DOS, go into BIOS ( hold ESC while booting, then press F1 when told to ) and turn OFF "display stretch" which MAY result in a smaller screen, but it is hard to imagine that would allow 600 tall on a 480 tall display.

Using a smaller character size will just give you a smaller dos box of 25*80 characters. An external monitor will work under DOS at 800*600 and (under windows and linux) it will scroll the LCD to match the external screen. Is this app graphical, does it use the mouse?

ss1010 and linux questions...
Date: Tue, 05 Jun 2001 11:57:33 -0400 From: "Frankie East" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: ss1010 and linux questions... Hi, I'm new to the group, living in the northern virginia corridor doing govt software contracting, and I bought this awesome tiny libretto from a friend in Korea. I have ghost images for win98 and win2k. I've run both os's fine on it so far but I'd really prefer to punt microsloth from my machine. My problem: Installing from a boot image on the floppy has hung the machine after launching the loading initrd messages. Installing from cd, well the libretto seems to just not be able to boot from a cd. Installing from hard disk, tried two different methods: Boot disk and redhat on local filesystem, results are I still hang on the boot floppy. Modifying autoboot.bat on the hard drive in dosutils to point to any of three images thus far: initrd.img, boot.img, and pcmcia.img hangs as though it were booting the floppy, same first couple of lines to the loading initrd part, then hung empty black screen. Anyone have any clues on how I can get Linux on this laptop?

HD size in Libretto 70?
Date: Tue, 5 Jun 2001 19:32:36 -0400 (EDT) From: Michael Miller <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: HD size in Libretto 70? On http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ (under "Upgrades") it says "the L70 has a 9.5mm HD", but then goes on to say "it is highly recommended in the L20-70 models that the thin foam/plastic spacers underneath the plastic sheet surrounding the hard drive bay be removed before insertion of drives thicker than 8.5mm." So for the Libretto 70 which is correct: 8.5mm or 9.5mm?

See my site below -> Overclocking article & section. There are no 'safe' or 'guarenteed' modifications of this type. Doing so will risk killing your Libretto instantly, even if you follow all instructions carefully. However, for about 90% of the people who attempted the modification, they were successful. The other 10% had to either return to a slower speed, undo the modification, or toss the Libretto. d =) = adorable toshiba libretto The latest news and information for the Toshiba Libretto owner. http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ __ Do You Yahoo!?

The earliest Libretto 70s shipped with a 9.5mm IBM HD until TOshiba released later models with a 8.45mm Toshiba HD (when they became available) of the same size. THus, to be safe, check to make sure extra HD spacers weren't added in your L70 (ie. later models) if you try to fit a 9.5mm HD in one. = adorable toshiba libretto The latest news and information for the Toshiba Libretto owner. http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ __ Do You Yahoo!?

New Libretto 100CT owner
Date: Wed, 06 Jun 2001 00:09:21 -0400 From: Cray Drygu <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: New Libretto 100CT owner Hello, I just bought a 100CT off eBay, and what it comes with is pretty scarce (the smaller port replicator, floppy drive, AC adapter, 2 batteries). Is there a CD drive that's reccomended for use with this, or can I pretty much pick anything? How about NICs and modems? I've never had to buy laptop accessories before, so I'm pretty clueless =) Also, I'm thinking of upgrading the 2.1gb hard drive. I'm aware of the BIOS's 8.1gb limitation, but that's okay with me (for now, at least, especially on a 166mhz machine). Any advice on driver's I'll need when installing the new one? Ones for the CD and floppy won't be an issue right away, since I plan on plugging the hard drive into my desktop, making it bootable, and copying the contents of the Windows CD to it. Then I can just stick it in the Libretto and install that way. However, I'll eventually need drivers for the floppy, mouse, display, and so on. Thanks in advance, Cray -- Cray Drygu [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://indecisions.org/ THE END! No wait, there's more. No, nevermind, I was right the first time. ** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://libretto.basiclink.com/archive - Archives http://www.picante.com/~gtaylor/portable/faq.html - FAQ ---UNSUBSCRIBE--- mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=cmd:unsubscribe UNSUBSCRIBE DIGEST-- Use above but add DIGEST to the subject line... **

I got to play with one on a trip to Denver a year ago and immediately fell in love with it because of the size. I've been wanting one ever since, so you're darn right I'll enjoy it =) I plan on using it for work to carry files around, since I work in a few different buildings, and maybe using it in the car to play mp3s. I wanted a 110CT, but they're going for a little too much for me right now (the $450 I paid for this is even stretching it a little). If I get more cash, though, I'll buy myself the upgrade and put this one back on eBay =) >I think that you will enjoy the 3COM card, since it >only uses one of your pcmcia slot.
