Actually, they DID build their laptops to the standard, they just used the established PCMCIA I/II standard that was around at the time. Notice that very few laptops even from other brands built in the era of the L50/70 has full Cardbus support (from what I gather only the really high end ones such as the Tecra 500 series had them, under the guise of 'PCMCIA 2.01'). Besides which, your processor doesn't even go fast enough to make full use of the 12MBit/s USB1.0 anyway let alone the 480Mbit/s of USB2.0 (remember, USB does NOT have its own processor, unlike firewire so its the processor that does all the hard work). - Raymond --- /~\ | | "Does fuzzy logic tickle?"| | ___ | "My HDD has no reverse.

[LIB] Smashed LCD...
Date: Sun, 20 Jan 2002 20:31:08 - From: "labrat" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Smashed LCD... Hi there, Woe is me.. I have managed to shatter my libretto 50 LCD screen... It is barely readable, fragmented and full of black goop. Does anyone have a (30,40,?) 50,60 or 70 that is beyond repair in another department, (like dead motherboard), that I can use in order to replace the screen...? Reasonably priced... of course... . I know you can get new LCDs, but they are priced in the £300+ area, which puts them at more expensive than a fully working second hand L50! I would really, really appreciate any help.

Reminds me of a loop we had at one stage ... 2 mail servers, both bounce virus infected emails from external servers and sends a warning mail to the intended recipient but one didn't block infected emails from being sent out. A user from that one sends an infected email to the other. You could imagine the flurry of activity that could have happened if an admin wasn't just by chance at the server console ... hehe >Actually, if Tom's autoresponder had quoted the entire digest back, as >did happen in a couple of the abovementioned storms, all our inboxes >could be stuffed to the gills in 5 mins. Nasty. Umm ... I fail to see how THAT could happen given the digest only goes out ever X days ... it'd be interesting though if he subscribed to the standard list and his autoresponder ended up responding to its own autoresponses ... >Anyways, this subject has been beaten to death before.

I have a backpack cdrom but it fails to recognize it. any >info would be appreciated. I've never installed Mandrake but if its anything like standard Redhat, it'll only recognise standard ATAPI CD-ROM drives by default. If you want to use a parallel port CD-ROM drive (I'm assuming thats what the Backpack is, if its PCMCIA the process is similar) you can either copy all the files to the hard drive and do a hard drive install or you can hunt through the net and find a Linux boot disk that'll load the right drivers for the Backpack. I recall being able to get a Red Hat install through a parallel Backpack unit working on an old Compaq Contura 486 using a setup boot disk I downloaded, unfortunately I can't remember where it was ... IIRC I started my search at www.linuxdocs.org so that may be a place to start. Hope this helps! - Raymond --- /~\ | | "Does fuzzy logic tickle?"| | ___ | "My HDD has no reverse.

Matt I'm always amazed at the way things work..yesterday I make my first post to this list asking about USB connections to my 70CT and today I wander into Circuit City to buy a 50 pk of 24X CD-R's for 1¢ after the rebate. So, I write my check and casually ask the clerk if he knows of a PMCIA to USB card whereupon he takes me to a shelf where there is a new product - an Orange Micro, Inc., PMCIA card (with external AC power included) to FOUR (yes, count 'emFOUR) 2.0 USB connections. Now I don't even need an expander port - I can even plug a mouse and a keyboard into this card along with my external HD case and a CF card reader!!
