Subject: RE: UNSUBSCRIBE from Libretto Digest - not working

There is a possibility to put two nics in one laptop, but I cannot connect
to the Net via a lAN cable. I have a SERIAL modem
What I need is a program/utility, that makes one laptop into a kind of
LAN-server, where any other connected system can reach the serial Internet
connection using one of the hub lan connectors.
Anyone???

Robbert,

Have a look at Smoothwall - www.smoothwall.org - highly recommended. If your 
cable modem speaks Hayes commands, there should be no problem, otherwise...I 
guess you have to try their 'how-to'. But it's fine on a normal modem 
connection.

From: Raymond [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Subject: RE: UNSUBSCRIBE from Libretto Digest - not working


How did you connect the two systems to ONE internet connection?
Im trying to do this already for quite some time, and I didn't succeed.
I'm using WinRoute Lite 3.04 (its an old version, it'll be flying around on a software 
archive somewhere or I can send you a copy, its completely freeware) to quite 
considerable success. Its also significantly easier to set up than others I've seen 
(eg. Wingate). Just remember, your network connection through your serial cable IS a 
network interface (notice that network interface != network card). 

Here's my current setup, all of my computers can access TCP/IP internet.
* Windows NT 4 server running Winroute 3.04g (it also worked when it was a 95 box), 
56k modem on COM3, 1 ethernet card connected to a hub. Winroute is set up as default 
configuration EXCEPT the RAS line corresponding to the modem (it'll be the RAS line 
corresponding to your cable modem if thats what you're using) is set to 'Do not NAT 
with this interface'.
* Windows 2000 workstation connected to the hub through 1 NIC, configured to look at 
the NT server for default gateway. The Windows 2000 box is set up to accept direct 
connections to the serial port with legacy (ie. win95) authentication and set up to 
only allow NetBEUI and TCP/IP connections.
* Toshiba Libretto running Win95 connected via parallel port to the parallel port on 
the Windows 2000 workstation, configured to be a Direct Cable Connection client, 
TCP/IP and IPX/SPX installed. When it connects to the Windows 2000 workstation, 
temporary DHCP on the Win2k workstation sets itself as the default gateway for the 
Libretto. I know it sounds funny but YES this computer IS accessing the full Internet 
(IRC/web browsing/telnet/ping/tracert) through the parallel port using only the 
facilities already present in Windows 2000 Workstation and Windows 95. Of course, it 
just occurs to me, you could probably get away with doing a similar thing if you're 
short of network cards (although I'm guessing you've already purchased them, besides 
which one of the computers has to be Win2k so I guess its a moot point anyway)

I've had similar success when setting up a friend's network consisting of only Win95 
computers. In fact, he used to switch modems between computers when one or the other 
wanted to use the net. I put a NIC in each, set up a default Winroute install (didn't 
even change the 'do not NAT bit') on computer 1, told computer 2 that computer 1 was 
the default gateway then dialled the modem. I didn't even need to set up DHCP or any 
other programs, the install of mIRC on computer 2 even autodetected the internet 
connection!

Of course, I don't have practical experience with cable modem connections 
(unfortunately Telstra still have a stranglehold on broadband so its too expensive for 
me here) so I'm going by theory ... perhaps if you (or someone else who knows about 
cable modem connections) could tell us a bit more about how it differs from a normal 
RAS line ...

*sigh* anyway there goes another one of my mini-essays! I wonder how many people 
actually read all of this ...

20 Gig HD Questions

2001-10-01 Thread Bjgleas

Date: Mon, 1 Oct 2001 09:20:07 EDT
From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Subject: 20 Gig HD Questions

Hey Guys:

I just got a 20 Gig hard drive for my Lib 110ct.  I have ACPI BIOS 8.10, the 
hard drive mode is set to Enhanced IDE (Normal).

I am running Windows 93 Second Edition

The hard drive is Toshiba MK201GAP.

Under DOS, I can see 8 gig, and under Windows, I can see 20 gig.
Partition magic can see the 20gig under windows, but on 8gig  under DOS...

What is the recommendation for seeing 20 gig under DOS?

I know there is probably a FAQ about this, but I can't seem to find it.

Thanks in advance,

bj

Subject: Re: 20 Gig HD Questions

Speaking of which ...

I am running Windows 93 Second Edition
Hmm ... seems a little old for big hard drive support ;-)

Under DOS, I can see 8 gig, and under Windows, I can see 20 gig.
Thats because Windows does do some funky things with hard drives. For instance, even 
if you tell your BIOS that say your primary slave drive doesn't exist (when it does), 
Windows will actually still be able to read it but DOS won't. If you only run in 
Windows you can probably get away with it. In fact you can use this trick to force the 
first partition on your second IDE drive (on your desktop of course) to come AFTER all 
the partitions on your first IDE drive (because Windows seems to mount the second 
drive after its already assigned all the drive letters for the first). 

Partition magic can see the 20gig under windows, but on 8gig  under DOS...
Ya ditto for PM about doing funky things to hard drives.

Date: Mon, 01 Oct 2001 21:49:28 +0800
From: Raymond [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Subject: RE: UNSUBSCRIBE from Libretto Digest - not working

OK better clarify a few points before someone again reserves the right to abuse me ;-)


I'm using WinRoute Lite 3.04 (its an old version, it'll be flying around on a 
software archive somewhere or I can send you a 
copy, its completely freeware)

OK those of you going to Winroute's site are probably thinking Umm ... isn't it 
shareware? ... versions of Winroute 3.xx and below had a 'Lite' version which WAS 
proper freeware. They changed that in 4.xx and above so the 'Lite' version now expires 
in 30 days. As far as I know however they haven't revoked the freeware licence on 3.xx 
or below (and I did enter my email address when I downloaded it and I've not recieved 
anything to that effect) so to my knowledge its kosher ;-)


I know it sounds funny but YES this computer IS accessing the full Internet (IRC/web 
browsing/telnet/ping/tracert) through the parallel port

Again, those of you visiting the Winroute site may be thinking Umm ... thats a 
feature of Winroute. That feature only actually came about at version 4.xx and after 
- the parallel port TCP/IP sharing I'm talking about is built into Windows 2000 and 
somehow Windows 95 knows how to talk to it. Certainly its not officially possible - 
even Microsoft's support site says its impossible but somehow it works (and its 
independant of the NAT/sharing, remember my 2k box doesn't have any sharing plus the 
Libretto can see all other computers on my local network that have IP addresses). For 
some strange reason though I can't actually use Microsoft File and Print sharing 
between my Libretto and my 2k box (the 2 computers either side of the parallel cable). 
I'm still trying to figure out why (I'm not trying TOO hard though, I found that file 
transfers chug the processor on my workstation like crazy ... I'm working on seeing if 
I can get a null modem connection to the NT server and treating that as a second RAS 
line ...)


Anyways ... I'm still trying to figure out why I write so much per post ... if someone 
ever finds out do tell me ... hehe

Re: Which cell phone?

From: David Chien [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Subject: Re: Which cell phone?

If anyone else is looking for a cell phone to use as a modem for the Internet
on the Libretto on the go AND does't care which service provider is used, I'd
suggest taking a close look at the Motorola Timeport 8767 model.

Similar to the usual super-light  compact StarTacs/Timeport models, the 8767
model includes one significant GEEKy feature that I'm in love with - the
tri-color organic LED display with super-bright (100 cd brightness!) color
characters on a deep black background.  Up to 4 hours of talk time on the
included battery, and the screen is so Amazingly legible at any distance and
angle vs. the boring, usual black on gray LCD displays that if you're like me,
you'll start drooling.

Anyways, available at Sprint PCS stores for the usual $250-300 ish, box comes
with CD software for connection to the PC over the serial port, and with proper
serivce, lets you browse the internet from your Libretto on the go anywhere you
have cell coverage.

--

Of course, disadvantages?  Doesn't have numerous programmable melody/ringer
options, voice activated dialing, full screen email  web  terminal services,
etc. like other cell phones available.

  Ontrack DiskGo, or if you bought an IBM HD, IBM Disk Manager for free.

  Unfortunately, some OSs can't see more than 8GB and as a result, you'll need
to use a disk manager program on your HD.  OSs like Windows 2K and Linux will
see all 20GB w/o any problems because they're designed for 8GB HDs.  But
still, regardless of OS, you must be careful to leave an empty space around the
hibernation area (under Linux and Win2K, that's still at the 8GB BIOS boundary
according to users who have tested to find out where this is).  As a result,
you'll need two partitions, one before the 8GB, one after, empty space of about
100-150MB between, in order to prevent your data from being overwritten during
hibernation to disk.

  My site and FAQ has a little more information on this, as will the Libretto
Mailing List archives.

 How much did it cost you? The WaveLAN's and the Netgear cards both are
 around $99, and they're supported under Linux (very important to me) ... now
 I'm just waiting for my next paycheck. ;)

70CT working now! Speaker issue

2001-10-01 Thread Matthew Hanson

Date: Tue, 02 Oct 2001 00:29:32 +
From: Matthew Hanson [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Subject: 70CT working now!  Speaker issue

Neil,

I soldered a piece of fuse wire (got it out of glass fuse) across that 2A 
fuse on the 70CT and got the LCD working again!  You're the man Neil!

I had a bit of a start for a few minutes though.  I turned the unit off, and 
set it up on the extended port replacator I've been has the 50CT set up in, 
booted it up, AND THE SCREEN STAYED BLACK!

I figured that something in the case top was blowing the fuse.  But taking 
it apart, the wire I soldered was intact.  Well,,, I then thought that maybe 
something in the case top had finally failed with this new jolt of 
electricity from being fixed.  I forgot to mention that I discovered that 
the rear left (as you face the screen) edge of the case top where the screw 
hole for the standard replicator is... was smashed from something.  I was 
thinking that this was probably started my problems... and have been 
thinking that if I got the MB working... the LCD or something else in the 
case top may eventually blow the fuse again of fail, as I think it was Pres 
suggested.

So I pulled off the case top from the 50CT and put it on the 70CT, popped it 
in the extended replicator and booted it up.  Gasp!  No screen!!  The logic 
pervaded... I realized I had the external monitor plugged into the ER, and 
forgot that I hadn't set the BIOS in the 70CT for simultaneous monitor 
operation.

So all's well for the moment.  The 50CT LCD is on the 70CT without that 
annoying dead pixel staring at me every time I do graphics editing.  The 
70CT top end may still have problems in the future... but I'll put it on the 
50CT and use it until something fails... or not.

On the deal with the little walkman speakers... it seems that everyone's 
suggestion that I crank the Libretto volume down, and the speaker volume 
knob UP has in fact improved the clipping problem I was having.

The other day a friend told me that if I was so depressed...I ought to play 
myself a little good music.  So for the last few days I've been downloading 
a lot of old 60s tracks with WinMX.  Pete Seeger, Buffy Sainte-Marie, Dylan, 
Peter Paul and Mary... stuff addressed at those times that applies equally 
well to today's situation.  Hours and hours of trying to get MusicMatch 
(their tech support said it wouldn't even run on my 50CT :-P) multitask with 
WinMX, IE, Notepad, Explorer, etc. finally gave me the incentive to fix the 
70CT!

Thanks so very much for figuring out that fuse problem Neil.  This is such a 
great list!

Matt

2001-10-01 Thread Rommel Garcia Custodio

From: Rommel Garcia Custodio [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Subject: [] thinking of upgrading my L70

good morning to all

   i have an L70 for about 3 years now, bought it 2nd hand in Japan.

   i have a IBM 4Gb installed in a Compaq, im going to swap the 1.6Gb
  of the L70 with that HD.

   my questions are:

   1) will the L70 support that IBM drive?
   2) do i need to update the L70's BIOS?

   can i install more memory on the L70? im currently maxed out at
  32Mb.

   TIA

peace, mela.
