I'm thinking about putting it in my car's trunk and connecting to some sort of in-dash LCD screen and a trackball and use it as a 15GB mp3 player .. Here in Brazil we have the robbery problem and we must camouflage all the hardware not to get them stolen, that's why the need to put it in the trunk .. My question is.. does anybody here have managed to make a Libretto wake up without using the power button..?? I can put my libby to hibernate perfectly in Linux but there's no way to wake it ... Pressing a mouse button to wake it would be all I want ... Any help?? Thanks .. JA Tavares

Re: [LIB] How many people have a U100 or U105?
Date: Tue, 10 Apr 2007 00:22:22 -0300 From: Jose Tavares <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: [LIB] How many people have a U100 or U105? In my opinion, as an owner, the new U105 can not be compared to an OQO or something like that... The new libby is a full notebook with a small keyboard but it's even easy to type on it.. It has enough power, memory, battery, etc, to run anything .. I bought it after talking to some teachers from my postgraduate course.. Some of them own Vaios 10.8", others have Dell and other 12" laptops .. All of them use their notebooks while traveling and while at work .. When there are available mouse/keyboard/monitor, they connect the subnotebook and use it as a normal desktop.. One minute after, they can unplug the subnotebook and walk across the campus or work anywhere .. Libretto called my attention as it was cheaper than Vaios here in Brazil.. So, I decided to buy my second libby after using a 70CT for 3 years and the quality of the hardware and the availability of spare parts was another topic I considered .. I'm happy with my U105 but I have to say that after the hardware problem I had with my U105, I got a little digusted... I described the problems in this list a few months ago... I didn't manage to solve it yet... I'm using network through a usb-to-rj45 adapter.. :( I use basically linux on both libbys and they are almost fully suported.. Power management is ok in both, and hibernate too.. I also wrote a page with my U105 config... There we can see some statistics on its views .. The page is a little bit outdated, but still useful... (I need some time to update it and to write a page for my 70CT..) The page is here... http://www.inf.ufrgs.br/~jaatavaresf/Libretto_U100/ JA Tavares
Re: [LIB] "State of the Art" on OS for the 100CT/64MB RAM

Both running basically linux, but with a dual boot.. 70CT: (32MB) - win98se + office2k + AVP .. AVP kills the machine.. - Debian Stable (Sarge).. Works ok.. If you want a faster access, use blackbox with dillo (browser).. If you want a better look for playing mp3, etc.. it's possible to run gnome as I really do.. Loading gnome is too slow, but once loaded, 70CT hibernates and returns fast for more than 100 times without crashing.. The BIOS does the trick.. I saw too much instalibility hibernating with win98se.. An issue is that with lots of packages installed, the dpkg system seems to ask for more than 32MB of ram but it's still easy to do package management if you exit X server and free the ram.. U105: - the original winXP almost untouched - Debian Unstable .. (has too much power to run anything, but I'm thinking in buying 1GB ram) I don't really like windows and I think libretto runs infinitely better with linux, so does any machine .. :P So, I recommend for performance linux with blackbox + dillo ..

As a user of U105 and 70CT, I have to tell you that the plain format of the keys is the worst.. In U100/105, que keys are plain and this is the problem.. It's more difficult to find exactly where they are by just touching them.. In 70CT the keys are deeper in their middle.. 70CT mouse has a better placement too. I'm using an external usb mouse everytime I find one available.. In my opinion, any mouse from notebooks doesn't offer the agility from a desktop mouse.. And the screen.. U100 screen is incomparable .. Never seen anything like that.. [] JA Tavares

Booted linux, start the screen mirroring to external display and then I run X in 1024x768, the resolution supported by my external display.. Guess what happened?

I'm trying to sell my 70CT because I think I'll not use it anymore.. It's in perfect conditions without any problems with screen, HD, case, keyboard, mouse .. About Linux .. Pick a dedicated machine, put Debian Stable and start to use it.. Start trying to do the things you usually do with free/open software.. Almost everything can be done with free/open software.. In a few days you'll be leaving your windows machine off.. :) No more hang ups .. I did this 6-7 years ago and a friend of mine said that I should pick up my best machine to put Linux and I picked up the worst.. After 30 days, I swapped the machines and put Linux on the best one for everyday use.. :) Don't use Linux as you use Windows.. Setup a user account other than root and use it!..

With your reply, I realized that I need to study and read more about acpi and pm.. :) The suspend made by BIOS is still available in later kernels but newer BIOS do no implement it neither have APM support.. What is STR? "suspend2" is a script available in hibernate and powersaved packages.. A little bit confusing.. Which one are you refering to? Are you refering to swsusp as software suspend?

I think I've read about people using it on new U100/105 .. The main concern is that you'll have to configure and compile a kernel 2.6 image to acquire full power management features.. The cpu frequency configured as dynamic is a good option .. Right now I'm using it with speedstep support and the battery seems to last longer and I can use it at 600MHz even with AC connected..

Reactivating this thread now that I bought mine and installed debian.. :) Which software are you using for hibernation? I installed "hibernate" and "powersave".. No success with both of them..

I think you'll have no access to power settings and your machine will be power hungry and too hot. Right now, I'm running debian with kernel 2.4 without the speedstep suport and it's fixed at 1.2GHz.. The problem is that from time to time the machine starts its cooler even if I don't give its processor any job.. As I see, this machine is made for running WinXP with it's energy support enabled or a linux 2.6.x with a special compiled kernel.. Other than these will cause overheat and too much power consumption.. I'm working in a kernel 2.6 setup for it and I'd like to see configs people from the list have made.. Please, mail it to me .. Have you ever thought about using some kind of emulation for running your Win98/DOS apps under linux? [] JA Tavares

I have one.. pretty good for my 400 contacts (with vcf backup), calendar, taking pictures, accessing simple www sites, taking notes.. The features of a Series60 phone are infinite.. You can even play games with lots of emulators.. You can watch divx movies too.. The battery lasts 2 days in normal use with this apps.. And it is resistent sufficiently to go everywhere with you.. And fits in your pocket.. etc.. etc.. :) A question for you.. Don't you think windowsXP is full-featured for your target app? It just needs a good processor and a big battery to stay up for just a few hours.. My Series60 gets its battery full charged in 1h20mins and lots of times I charge it for 10 minutes and it will give me more 3-7 hours.. Its battery is so cheap that I even care for it... I think the best purpose for OQO is it's capacity for conecting a usb keyboard and a external display .. Great for traveling from home to office for people without a internet connection and file server.. The question is that OQO is cool but has too much processing power that will give you too little battery.. I think too much processing power for it's bad keyboard/mouse, for not using it as a real computer.. Maybe a tuned OS would do better on this machine.. Linux? [] JA Tavares

I did the same as you and created a partition with 35MB in the beggining of the disk for the linux /boot partition.. I think that, if pmagic completed its job, and if you run fdisk and set windowsxp partition as active, your system will boot up. Then you'll have to use some trick for selecting XP or your DOS or will live with all the time changing the active partition.. I'm with my U105 for 15 days right now and the first thing I did was to create these backup dvds .. It clones recovery the data that is on the end of U105 HD.. All the software, windows and toshiba drivers are there.. The tip to create this disks is printed in one of the sheets that comes with the manual. In the manual there is a line that says this too. Anyway, take a look at the active partition thing and you can do what you was trying to... About recovering with the disks, there are lot's pages that warns that with you have linux + xp installed, by recovering you will have to delete the whole drive...
