Hibernation theory
Date: Fri, 13 Jul 2001 18:12:58 -0400 (EDT) From: Michael Miller <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Hibernation theory > If you know how to write binary 1's to the HD and can figure out the exact > location of the hibernation partition from that, you won't have to leave as > much empty space. However, thus far, not one of the findings from others has > shown that the hibernation space is located in the exact same spot, or is the > exact same size between HDs. Here's a theory (I have one data point to support it!) At least in my Lib70 with a 10GB HD: The hibernation area begins at cylinder 1023, and goes up "as far as needed" (maximum RAM + video memory). To test this theory (on a newly-installed HD larger than 8.4GB): 1) Boot to Win9x or DOS without a disk manager, put in a partition at the very end of the disk, and see what cylinder number it ends at (if the THEORY is correct, it would always end at cylinder 1022). 2) Get your partitioning software to see the whole drive (I put a Linux partition above the 8.4GB mark; thereafter PartitionMagic could see the entire drive), skip the amount of space theorized for the partition area, and create an "important" partition just after that (I created my Linux /usr partition there). Note: since PM insists on starting at cylinder boundaries, the possible "edges" of partitions on my drive were spaced every 7.8MB, so I was forced to leave 5 cylinders = 39MB free. 3) Hibernate a bunch and see if the "important" partition gets corrupted (mine hasn't). (I'm guessing that most OS's write first to the beginning of a partition - if so, corruption should be readily apparent.) So, if you can provide evidence for or against this theory, please post it to the list!!

Based on the latests findings thus far, I would suggest leaving an empty space that's about 200-300MB both below and above the 8.4GB (or whatever maximum your PC sees under DOS w/o a drive manager), with parititions located before and beyond that. If you know how to write binary 1's to the HD and can figure out the exact location of the hibernation partition from that, you won't have to leave as much empty space. However, thus far, not one of the findings from others has shown that the hibernation space is located in the exact same spot, or is the exact same size between HDs. (see Libretto Mailing List archives for prior posts and methods on finding this under Linux) As a result, my recommendation, to be absolutely safe, is to leave a bigger buffer zone around where the hiberation area is to be placed. > Thanks for clearing this up again David, I know you get tired of this > confusion with disk sizes!

110ct very dark screen
Date: Fri, 13 Jul 2001 08:43:58 +0100 From: "Paul McLoughlin" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: 110ct very dark screen Hi Guys, The screen on my libretto has just turned very dark, you can only just make out an image on the display. It appears to work perfectly via the port replicator on an external monitor, Any suggestions or does anyone know of a Libretto repairer in the UK ?

WORKS FINR AFTER THAT. -Original Message- From: John Liu [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 13 July 2001 07:46 To: Libretto Subject: Help W/ FDD Date: Thu, 12 Jul 2001 23:49:12 -0700 From: John Liu <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Help W/ FDD I bought a used Libretto 100CT. It arrived with Win 98 installed and everything seemed to be working fine. I installed the TDIAG.EXE, TSETUP.EXE, and TVER.EXE files from the Companion Diskette. Then my floppy disk ceased working. It is getting power (light goes on during bootup). But Windows reports that the "Y-Data FDD" has no driver. I tried installing the standard floppy disk controller, no use. What should I do? I can boot from the FDD, so it does work, it just doesn't seem to work in Win 98 and I don't know where the drivers are to fix it. ** 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... ** Visit our website at http://www.rm.com Standard Disclaimer:This message is confidential.
