  You may need to find the keyboard drive for that Libretto.  Otherwise, maybe
try changing the keyboard type in Device Manager/Control Panels to see if it'll
show up.

  IRQ conflict with the modem & mouse perhaps?  You'll have to change the
settings of one of these devices to not use the same IRQ's at the same time. 
You usually have just IRQ 3/4 shared between COM1-4, so something had better
move or the modem/mouse won't work right.

Miguel,

I can't answer your keyboard problem: but AFAIK the com1 port itself is on 
the motherboard - the level conversion to RS232 levels is handled in a 
couple of chips in the expansion port - so if the machine sees the port it's 
likely it's the expansion unit that's dead. Anyone know if it's the same 
expansion unit as the 60/60/70? PN CAB0346A ?
In which case, I have a spare here in the UK...

Neil

a couple of problems with an L30

Subject: a couple of problems with an L30

Hi there,

It´s nice to read your mails again, after a (long) while.
Some things never seem to change, and as it happened before, I need your help.

The first problem I have is this: after taking the L30 to a Toshiba official repair 
centre, they deleted everything on its hard disk, therefore I had to install again W95 
(I used the Spanish version, as it's the one I have), and after doing this, some of 
the keys didn't work. I though that it was not so strange for some of them, because 
the keyboard is a Korean one (I don't know much about Korean, but it isn't Japanese, 
its letters don't look like the Japanese ones I've seen on the web). There are some 
others which should work, but they don't: the windows key, and the "menu" key (the one 
which has the same effect as clicking on something with the right button of a mouse 
-the lower one of the libretto). Does anybody know what I should do to make them work? 
Maybe there is a special driver for this type of keyboard, but I can't find it 
anywhere!

The second problem I have is that the serial port of the replicator doesn't work, and 
I don't know if it's a problem of the port itself, or on the contrary, it has 
something to do with a wrong installation (or the lack) of something. The strange 
thing is that the L30 finds it (the serial port) and automatically installs the 
drivers, but after this, I can't use the modem I have (it works correctly, as it's the 
one I'm using now with another computer, but it's not detected), nor a mouse (again, 
it isn't detected). The parallel port seems to work fine.
I don't even know how to check what kind of problem it has, as I'm the only person I 
know who has a Libretto. Any suggestion?

Thanks in advance.

Miguel
