Whilst on the subject of rodents, anyone out there know where you can buy 
a sub-sized (small, tiny, whatever) mouse in the UK?  Basically I'm after 
a rodent half the size of a traditional Logitech-sized mouse for my 
Libretto...

Strange that.  I feel the same way about US keyboards. Why is the enter 
key so flippin' big?  Personally I think on the UK / EU keyboards shift-4 
should return the euro symbol and not the dollar.. (joke...!)

Do any of you rich people who own both an 100/110 and a L1/2/3 Libby can tell me (or 
better still send me a photo) what the difference in size there is between the older 
and newer Libretto's?
Also just how faster is the L1/2/3 over, say an L110?  (assuming L110 has 64mb and 
L1/2/3 has 256mb..)

Hi all,

Does anyone know a UK company still stocking the 32 Mb memory modules for
the Libretto 110? or alternatively does anyone have one to sell?

I know/hope I could pick one up on ebay, but they don't come along very
often and I'd like to upgrade sooner rather than later.

Thanks in advance,

Alan.

PS - the 3 modules on ebay.com are US shipment only

You could try Freecom - their Traveller I CDROM was re-badged as 
Toshiba's Libetto 1x0CT CDROM drive.  I've got two - a Traveller I Lite 
(connects via PCMCIA) and a Traveller II CDRW (PCMCIA & USB).  Both have

both can use different cables (USB, PCMCIA, USB II, Firewire, parallel,

Subject: Re: [LIB] Battery chargers?

Ray,

The battery charger (with its adaptor) is a large slab of plastic - almost
the same size as a 110CT - that just chargers a battery independently to it
being in a Libby.  It was really designed for the older 50 / 70 models as it
can power them as well as charging a battery.  The adaptor converts the
charger so it can take 100/110 batteries.

I've got a ickle (that's "small") picture of my charger next to my 110 if
you want it.. :o)

The others; one is labelled 990105 (this came with my 110 and is still
working), and two labelled 981104 (brought 2 years later, I alternative
between these two).  The two newer ones are from Dabs.com - the Toshiba

[LIB] Need an opinion on a Lib L1 please

2002-03-06 Thread Jon C

Date: Wed, 06 Mar 2002 08:46:28 +
From: "Jon C" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Subject: Need an opinion on a Lib L1 please

Hi folks

A Libretto L1 has just appeared on ebay UK:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2007802556

It appears to be a high-spec L1 with 256Mb ram & 30Gb HD, plus extra 
battery, case and 2 power adaptors.

The sellers got a reserve on it (it starts at GBP 950 but that's not the 
reserve); what sort of price would a 1 month old L1 go for?

Thanks in advance

Jon

Subject: Re: [LIB] UK stockist of 50/70/100/110 batteries

Lets get this straight.  The guy at this web site sent me a battery for my
digital camera on approval (which he didn't have to do) complete with an
international pre-paid label to send it back.  Within ten minutes of me
telling him via email that the battery didn't fit he sent a second battery
to try out.

He might send out the wrong battery; he might have the wrong description on
his web site; he's only human like the rest of us (unlike certain bots I
could describe).  But I'm damn sure I've never seen a company that includes
a pre-paid label to send the product back FOC if its wrong from anywhere on
the planet... (yet).

One 'narked Jon.

Hi Konrad

I've got a L110 running Win2k SP2 and the Win2k hibernation works fine 
with my libby...

As far as I know, the Toshiba hibernation is disabled by Win2k's ACPI.  
Also the Win2k hibernation data is stored in a 64mb file on your Windows 
drive rather than at the end of the disk Toshiba's hibernation puts it.

Subject: Re: [LIB] A couple of questions

Hi Chester

I've got a 110CT running Win2K Pro - it works just fine.  Takes a bit of
time to boot up, but as suspend & hibernate work fine you shouldn't have to
reboot too often (hopefully!)  This 110CT of yours - it does have 64Mb yes?
I hate to think what Win2K would do with *only* 32Mb..  Win2K Server on a
Libby?  I would guess that's not a great idea.  I had Win98 before I
upgraded to Win2K; it also worked fine but I had too many BSDs (Blue Screens
of Death) for my liking.

Actually, I've got Win2k on my L110 -- no overclocking,
64 MB of RAM -- and I'm really happy with it. I've installed
Professional and turned off all the crap I don't want 
running, but haven't done anything more complex than that.
 
At this very moment, I have a dial-up connection to the
Internet, and an SSH client (putty) connected to my Linux
server. I'm using about 5% of the CPU, and 50 MB of RAM.

I've got a (64mb) 110 running Win'2K with a IBM 20Gb HD & it runs fine.  
The HD is formatted as follows:

C: 7.79Gb partition (formatted in DOS before installing Win'2K)
unallocated 102mb partition for hardware hibernate (created in Win'2K)
D: 10.73Gb partition (created in Win'2K)

Folks,

I don't think I can make the 9th of December meet - getting back to my

Could do the 15th with no problem however..

Nope, you do not need external power for the Belkin USB adapter - I've had a Micro$oft

Hi Jon,
 
My Libretto is a 110, does the Belkin's PCMCIA USB adapter
requires external power? Can I attach a USB mouse without
attaching external power to the adapter?
 
CarVal
 
 
 
 
 
Hey Carval
 
I'm using Belkin's PCMCIA USB adaptor and it works fine on my 110CT
under Win2k. However the Belkin card requires CardBus slots, so you
need to have a 100CT or above..

Hi
 
I have purchased two TV tuner, the first one
was a PCMCIA tuner (Nogatech) it was junk.
It was several years ago, I don't know anything
about there newer models.
 
The second one was a USB Lifeview tuner, I paid $79,
(http://www.lifeview.com/Sales/Catalog/catalog.html)
 
This one works a lot better than the PCMCIA model, it work
without power on my larger notebook and desktop, on the Libretto
I need the PCMCIA to USB adapter my is a ADS model that
requires power. But the tuner also requires, the tuner come with
a pass through ps/2 connector to power the tuner. With that power
to the tuner, the adapter work without power.
It work great, the W2k interface works better than the Win98.
 
I'm looking for a PCMCIA to USB adapter that
requires no power, so I can use a USB keyboard and mouse
without power. If anyone know of model please post brand name?
 
thank you
 
ps I think the tuner now goes for $59

Re: [LIB] Stuffed a 20Gb drive in my 110CT

2001-11-12 Thread Jon C

Date: Mon, 12 Nov 2001 17:03:32 -
From: "Jon C" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Subject: Re: [LIB] Stuffed a 20Gb drive in my 110CT

Fubar,

Yep.  If Win2000 wasn't running, the Libby would "hardware hibernate" as normal.

As I found out today, Win2000 doesn't always gets the chance to hibernate...

What happened was I set up Win2000 to hibernate when the battery power hit 1%.  (Silly 
me!)  However my 110CT decided to hibernate via hardware before Win2000 had a 
chance...  So it is possible to have a hardware (i.e. Libby) hibernate in Win2000 but 
only when the user is silly enough to set the power-off-when-battery-is-dead option to 
a silly value...

But as I left a 100mb empty partition at the end of the "normal" 8Gb limit, the 
remainder of the drive was fine after I stuffed my Libby in the mains.  Win2000 wasn't 
too happy however.. :o)

Interesting!
In fact, fascinating!!
I find that's often the case - something grabs my interest, and then -
slowly - it dawns on me just how far out of my depth I really am, and this
realisation warrants an immediate upgrade to "fascinating" status :-)
 
So, let me get this right.
If it overheated while Win'2K was up and running, no problem.
But in the event (maybe very unlikely event - but maybe...) that for
whatever reason, Win'2K was not up and running, it'd trash the area at
8.~Gb?

Re: [LIB] MSIE 5.0 and up with W98 on L70?

Subject: Re:  [LIB] MSIE 5.0 and up with W98 on L70?

Just found a guy at work here using a L50 with Windows 2000 installed, 
and he demonstrated using Powerpoint 2000 and IE 5.01 running whilst the 
Libby was on a LAN.  It wasn't lightning quick but it wasn't sluggish 
either. 

His Libby 50 has 32mb, standard 810mb HD and is not overclocked.

Seeing that yesterday made me upgrade Win98SE to Win2000 on my L110 
yesterday evening.  I'm surprised and rather impressed that Win2000 on a 
P233Mhz, 64Mb Libby works well - hibernate & suspend work EVERY time - 
Office 2000 (yuk) works faster (can it getting any slower?!) and 
everything apart from the Freecom CDROM drive updated fine...

They were only (!) £50 each a month back - www.microwarehouse.co.uk had 
one in stock (they took 4 weeks to get mine).  They suggested that 
Toshiba were "holding back" stock because of the 50% off offer - it  
finished on the 28th of Sept.  

Oh, and Neil...  Feel free to mail in English cos that's all I understand!

Neil,

Don't bet on getting L110 batteries in the UK - I only just managed to 
get 3 of them after Toshiba UK's 50% off September Sale...

Re: Portege to accompany Libretto.

Mike

I've had three hi-cap 100/110CT batteries on back-order for three weeks now - it 
appears Toshiba either don't have many of these batteries in the UK - or don't want to 
sell many of them!!!

Subject: Portege to accompany Libretto.
 
Dear Listers,
For those in the UK, PCWorld are selling off the top model Portege 3490CT
for less than 1200 pounds, a few weeks ago they where 2000 pounds !
I could not resist at that price and bought one this afternoon.
The nearest form factor to my 50CT, weight, if not footprint (B5).
However 700Hz PIII,128MB Ram(256max), 20GB, 8MB graphics.
 
My 50CT has been my only computer for over 3 years, the lack of USB and the
640 x 480 resolution just too limiting for my only everyday PC.
 
However I will not be packing away the Libretto just yet, it will now spend
more time in my car linked to my etrex GPS, playing MP3's, and used with my
Siemens SL45 mobile phone via IR for remote e-mail access on the road (while
stationary !).
 
Back to the Portege, as Toshiba UK are selling half price Portege batteries
as well as Libretto 100/110 batteries, I will be buying a few.
Are lithium ion batteries better used in cycle, or are they okay to be kept
in storage for the 'future' ?
 
Cheers,
Mike.
