No in Norway we do not have area codes. The first two or three numbers does not indicate where you are in Norway. It used to indicate on which network you are. But that was up until 1. November 2001. Now you can take phonenumber with you to a different network provider. > Sorry, folks, if this is off topic, but I find it very interesting to > discuss that here! It is. I found out not long ago that the bug in Ericsson's phones where it would not log on again after it was out of range has been fixed in the latest firmware version. The problem was that if you had "Preferred services" set to Gsm _and_ Gprs it would not log on again to the network. This only happend to T39/T65/T68 used on Telenor which uses Nokia hardware in their BS. This problem should now be fixed.

Does it also offer a choice of real gallons and American ones? Do these programs do anything a very simple spreadsheet can't do just as well or better? I would recommend rolling your own. Start with the simplest way to do what you need - you can always get more fancyful later (i.e. in my case adding foreign currencies or oil for my two stroke) and you will have the advantage to always know exactly what you are doing and not having to put up with other people's ideosyncrasies.

Go to http://www.palmtop.net/links/links.htm and look! Unfortunately, this doesn't work.

They occasionally appear on ebay. I got mine together with a 170 MB PCMCIA hard drive for my old Omnibook 430. However, the big disadvantage of these adapters is that IDE is not hot-pluggable. So you have to restart your computer everytime you want to attach / detach a flash card. And, of course, you must have access to the IDE port, either using a removable hard disk mounter or by leading an IDE cable out of the computer case. But OTOH this is a very fast and reliable method to transfer data to / from a flash card.

I've been carrying around my trusty HP200LX since mid-1995, and I've been carrying around a digital cell phone for a year or so. So I finally got around to trying to connect the two, and I figured that my experience might be useful to someone, someday. Here's my equipment: HP200LX 8MB DS HP serial cable Audiovox CDM-9000 (tri-mode CDMA cell phone) Audiovox DIC-4000 data cable (mid-$40's on eBay) Ratshack 9-pin null-modem adapter and 9-pin M-M gender changer Verizon Wireless has a free service called Mobile Office. This is different than their paid Mobile Web service, which lets you use a web-enabled phone as a web browser. Mobile Office lets you connect to their circuit-switched network at 14.4Kbps, when you're on their digital cell network, without using a separate ISP. You do, however, consume normal plan minutes when connected. I connected the phone to the HP, and tried issuing "AT" commands via datacomm. No luck, until I disabled the "lighton" TSR that let's me use Daniel 's excellent LCD light. Then I fired up WWW/LX 2, and tried calling my ISP. I used the init string "ATZV1S7=90", which I found in Verizon's .inf file for their Mobile Office windoze software. I set the Baud to 19,200. It worked, on and off -- I'd often have to recycle the HP and/or the phone. Then I tried changing the Dial string to #777, which uses the Mobile Office ISP (and connects very quickly), and couldn't connect at all. Finally, I downloaded and installed WWW/LX 3, just for laughs, and sure enough it works perfectly -- both with my ISP and the #777 one. Once I told Post/LX3 my ISP's login and password, I was good to go for Email. WWW, ftp, telnet, ping, and even the ftp server all work. I'm ordering WWW/LX 3 right away. I hope someone finds this useful. And thanks to D&A Soft for their excellent software!

As outlined in an earlier post this week, my connection set up is... 200LX ---> HP serial cable (F1015-80002) ---> HP null modem adapter (5181-6639) ---> Mouse The MOUSE.COM driver loads ok in DOS, but I too get no response from the mouse (no cursor movement, no mouse clicks). I know the LX port works, as it use it with Transfile & Intellisync almost everyday, and I have the port set to ON in DOS mode via Setup. So, if this problem is indeed a case of the mouse not getting enough power from the LX serial port, could those who have managed to get mice/trackpads/trackballs/etc. working with the LX share with us what BRANDS/MODELS of these things they are using?

Make sure no other PC programs/hardware are trying to use the COM# of the serial port. 2. Make sure your 200LX serial port is on. 3. Set the LX serial port speed in Filer to nothing higher than 57600. 4. I know you don't have to be in Server mode on the LX. I'm not sure it hurts, but you may want to try connecting just by being in Filer with the serial port active. Good luck. J. P.

I have of course enabled a DOS mouse driver on my games console (Win98, bells, whistles, internet, etc.), but under DOS I never use it at all.

When I began to use an Atari Portfolio (before giving that up for an LX last year) I first began to use Lotus mostly because the Calculator was useless (as in the HP IMHO). But after I found how simple some things - and especially stuff like mileage and cost tables - can be done there, I have never bothered to program for things like that any more.

Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" LXer's, I have good news to report about the problem with the Microsoft mouse, the details of which I reported earlier today (see below). Well, I just went to drawer full of Microsoft serial mice in my lab and picked out another and connected it up as below - and it works!!! As far as I know, all the mice I have are good (they have all been used on other systems), so it may be useful to note the info about the mouse I had earlier today that did NOT work with the LX and the one that DOES. So, here's the info: + mouse that would not work - "Serial - Mouse Port Compatible Mouse", part no. 55305 + mouse that does work - "Serial Mouse 2.0A", part no. 50674 Hope this info helps, Martin G. Ramirez ==================================================================== LXers, I seem to be having the same problem right now with a Microsoft serial mouse. As outlined in an earlier post this week, my connection set up is... 200LX ---> HP serial cable (F1015-80002) ---> HP null modem adapter (5181-6639) ---> Mouse The MOUSE.COM driver loads ok in DOS, but I too get no response from the mouse (no cursor movement, no mouse clicks). I know the LX port works, as it use it with Transfile & Intellisync almost everyday, and I have the port set to ON in DOS mode via Setup. So, if this problem is indeed a case of the mouse not getting enough power from the LX serial port, could those who have managed to get mice/trackpads/trackballs/etc. working with the LX share with us what BRANDS/MODELS of these things they are using?

Here is a paragraph from one of its text files: "These files contain SHAREABLE SOFTWARE for EasyNet's ShareLan computer networking system - a two-user version - ideal for lap-top to desktop connections. EasyNet ShareLan (ESL) is a full PEER-to PEER network system for two PCs. EasyNet ShareLan will allow two PCs to share, programs, disk drives, Ram disks and printers connected to either machine, even if the machine you want to contact is currently in an application such as wordprocessing or accounting. EasyNet ShareLan is a full MULTI-TASKING, MULTI-USER network system." I don't know how fast the simple Zip serial transfer program on SUPER is, but Easy-Net will only run at a maximum speed of 56K. I know that the LBL network software that I used on my HP200LX long ago was much faster than that, but the setup for Easy-Net truly *is* easy. I'm currently without the necessary hardware to test the Easy-Net software and will only have email access for a while, but if anyone would like to check out how it works on their HP200LX and would be willing to post about the experience to this list , I would be happy to send the archive to them as an attachment to a private email. (Sorry, I have no idea where or when I found it. It might have even been uploaded to my old BBS, long ago) Cheers!

So, here's the info: It may be a matter of power consumption. The LX's serial port doesn't provide the same voltage and current as a "normal" serial port. Thus the power which can be sucked off the port is much much lower than the power you can get out of a PC serial port. I will use your mouse info on my RS232-page if you agree (http://www.daniel-hertrich.de/rs232 in the mouse section). Maybe this helps others to avoid frustration.

You can "upgrade" your shipping to as much as you're willing to pay.... Details: The KeyMate is the adapter kit that allows you to use any keyboard w/ your LX. It takes an internal 9 volt battery (not included.... I would, if I had one in my gadget room), or the INCLUDED A/C adapter (looks like it's U.S. voltage only and is really small). This kit also has an IR input that works w/ WinCE devices (only) and the Thaddeus-provided disk w/ the LX driver. The Mini-Keyboard is REALLY cool. It's about 3/4 sized, membrane-mechanism KB w/ almost no use. Its big "draw" is the low current draw (sold to me by the KeyMate developer as the lowest power-use KB he could find ... the box says "Input Power: 5Vdc, 50mA"). The dimensions are listed in millimeters: 287(L) x 143(W) x 28 (H). I'll trust you to pull out your LX for the conversion! I used the combination once, prob. two-three years ago (when I bought it) and then shelved it saying, "That's cool, I'll have to use that more often." Well, I'm cleaning house and haven't used the combo and want them to go to a good home. The good news is that means they're "like new." I'll respond to questions on or off the list, but direct email will work fastest for me. I can accept PayPal [email there is: ttraymond@hotmail.com so don't be surprised], but postal money orders are fine. Thanks!! --tim PS.

He made a replacement for the >INT 13H disk services. But I guess the original palmtop Minix >was unstable. No, the original stock Minix 2.0, which also comes as CD-inset in the Tanenbaum's "Operating Systems" book, was the one crashing on the palmtop. R. L. Dubbs made his native partition experiment before Mack fixed Minix for the palmtop. If there is a list of Minix files, which needed to be modified to stabilize Minix on the 200LX, one could install Minix in a native partition, patch it and then run it OK. Did Mack Bagette tell us, which particular files were changed in Minix for HPLX compliance? I have only seen ready-made installs for DOS- guest partition. However Dubb's method supposedly does not help in implementing multi-partition flashcard support for 200LX, he said he was unable to make a second partition visible. I guess we could try to contact the Intel and Phoenix people, who made the 200LX CPU / BIOS, and torture them to reveal some info about multi-partition support issues. By the way, what kind of multiple partitions did you try to put unto the flashcard for 200LX experiment? 1., one primary DOS+ one extended DOS with logical drives inside 2., multiple primaries ? I have a crazy idea: use a real laptop computer to prepare a flashcard according to method 1., (primary DOS then extended DOS partition + logical drives) and then manually delete only the primary DOS partition with some hexa diskeditor. Then check if the 200LX still sees the logical drive(s) inside the extended DOS partition. If yes, you could try to put a non-DOS partition into the empty space, where primary DOS part used to be and utilize it for native Minix or ELKS or other OS which runs on 8086 (QNXv2, Xenix?)

The silver blue packaging thats supposed to replace the "old" red tops. This morning I checked the voltage and got an incredible shock. My LX said the voltage was 3.22 volts after about 10 hours of use. I removed them and checked the individual battery's voltages after 12 hours rest out of the palmtop with my multimeter and they register 1.72 volts a piece!!!!!! I did not check the voltages before using these battery's but the labelling says 1.5 volts. I want to know if there is any knowledge on the list as to how this much overvoltage might affect the LX or if it is designed to handle this overage.

MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain I, too, can report success. On my way home Friday, I stopped off at my local Value Village resale shop, and they happened to have an old serial mouse for $1. I got it and tried it out later Friday evening (about the same time Martin got his mouse to work!). It still didn't work, but its test program showed that the button clicks were recognized, but the pointer didn't move. I double-checked the port settings in Setup, and they were OK. I then thought to check the port in Buddy -- I had the serial port locked in Buddy. I unlocked it, and the mouse worked. My Appoint pen mouse also works, but a clone mouse that I have rebuilt as the circuit for a track ball here at work doesn't work (although the buttons are also recognized with this one). So, there do appear to be differences based on the mouse electronics. The clone mouse that works for me has a small circuit board, while the one that doesn't has a full sized board with nore discrete components. It also has larger phototransistors on the sensor wheels. So, if your mouse doesn't work, make sure the serial port is _on_ and _unlocked_. Even then, you might need to try a different mouse. BTW, I'm loading my mouse driver in Config.sys, and it works both in straight DOS and in DOS run from the Sys manager. It also works in Windows 3.0 using the standard Windows mouse.drv. Bob P.S. The Appoint pen mouse is a handy one to use with the LX, as the ball is on the end of a pen-like stylus. You can use it on small surfaces such as a pad or paper, or even your pants leg, as the ball is more exposed. It costs only $10 plus shipping from California Digital. The only drawback is that it is pink and says "Barbie" on it -- it comes with the "Barbie PC Fashion Design & Color" software package. -----Original Message----- From: Martin G.

Simply use it in a batch file like this c:\bin\syslog.exe "Starting Software Carousel" and in the logfile c:\syslog.txt appears a line with a time stamp and the message "Starting Software Carousel". This way you can collect all info from your system batch files, like nightly backups, or whatever. You can of course also log online runs with WWW/LX (although WWW/LX comes already with a logging feature ;-) )... Once the syslog file gets too large, simply delete it or zip it to another drive, and the next time syslog is called it will create a new file. http://www.daniel-hertrich.de/download GTX daniel -- http://www.daniel-hertrich.de/contact ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Mon, 4 Mar 2002 20:03:58 +0100 Reply-To: Michael Lennartz Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Michael Lennartz Subject: Just a question Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="ISO-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hallo all, is there anybody, who tried to use WWW/LX and POST/LX (and Arachne) on a Olivetti Quaderno XT (this with a 20 MByte HD) or the identical Highscreen Laptalk?

ACE had a version of it installed on the RAM cards that let you mount the (hidden) STACVOL.ACE file for roughly double the native storage capacity. But that did not have any more than a single partition. In fact, since it was a RAM card, it could not literally be partitioned as a Compact Flash or ATA Flash card can.

Slightly wrong again: The 'Hornet' chip in the 100, 200 and 700 is an extended chip with a 186 CPU core plus extra's such as serial i/o ports, pcmcia hw drivers, LCD driver etc all onchip. It does not 'emulate' an 186. It is really a '186 PC on a chip', just needing some line drivers for serial I/O, and a rom to boot from to work as a pc ( plus power of course...). The 700 has an extended 200LX rom, with SMS and FAX sw as well, plus a second PCMCIA slot (strictly I/O wired)..

Quite the opposite is true it has a lot of phone specific software on top of what the 200 has, fax and SMS mainly - although it seems to me that those programs are less well written and more carelessly and incompletely documented than the original HP ones.

I've been doing this for a long time with the following Rexx program. Call it from BAT files like: rexx ts Starting Software Carousel /** TS.Rex - TimeStamp **/ parse value date('S')time()date('W') with 3 yymm 7 dd 9 hhmm 14 . 17 dow 19 . file = 'C:\TS'yymm'.LOG' if arg(1) <> '' then call lineout file, dow dd hhmm space(arg(1)) call lineout file /* close file */ exit Besides being a nice language by itself Rexx can also act a super utility to make your BAT files more useful.

Hi all In Australia the term apprentice is used for a person who is hired to be trained in a trade and does some technical training at a college as well as practical with the company. ie apprentice plumber, apprentice mechanic etc. Intern is mainly used here for the medical profession as a term for a graduate that is studying as they work. ie mentors oversee their practical efforts after they have learned the intellectual stuff. There are similar positions in the arts (understudy) and the legal profession as well as copilot etc. I think the situation Daniel describes is where full time students go out to get some life experiences in return for a bit of pocket change. Here in Oz the students go out for work-experience sometimes for no money at all. They "test" professions they may be interested in pursuing for a career. That seems the closest I can think of. They can then apply for their first job quoting work-experience with xyz Company for x time and abc company for x time etc with references as to how they did.

Is there any known workaround? IIRC this can be done using IF EXIST A:\NUL PATH A:\BIN;... IF NOT EXIST A:\NUL PATH C.\BIN;... At least this works for directories. Otherwise lxcic may help you since it returns errorlevels depending on the card type inserted into the slot. So ask for the Flash card errorlevel and if true, you can be sure there is an A: drive. THEN you can use your IF EXIST to see if it is the correct card.

Here is what I collected from your replies: co-op: probably means a direct cooperation (on a certain project?) between university and company. Not meant here. No such direct relation, although the subject of my work is essentially the same as my studying subject. Intern: Seems to be something like "Praktikant" (Monica Lewinsky). That's something different I think. You have to be an intern(al?) for some time to be able to graduate. What I do is not a must. Educated cheap labor: That was the best! :-) "trifft den Nagel auf den Kopf" ("hits the nail onto the head"). work-student: My English teacher suggested "working student", but I don't think this is a common work. work-student is also a little strange... But it would be the most accurate translation. fellow(ship): too general in my opinion. trainee: Maybe kind of. But not exactly. apprentice: No. To be an apprentice here is an alternative to be a student. But I am also a student. Maybe co-op is still the best term, and it probably impresses most. ;-) I'll go for that one, I think.

What Daniel described was basically the an internship -- a student working for free (or for very little money, at least) to gain experience in their field. But what you described sounds more like an ordinary student summer job to make as much money as possible, even if the job isn't in your chosen career field. (presumably to help out with tuition and school living expenses). ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Tue, 5 Mar 2002 21:29:53 +0100 Reply-To: Axel.Berger@NexGo.De Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Axel Berger Subject: Re: A or nor A - how to ask the question?

Four successfully completed work terms are required for the granting of a Co-op degree. The first Co-op work term will follow completion of the 2A academic term." The students do not work on special projects, they are just part of the general company staff and treated the same way as other staff with a similar level of experience. Its good for the students because they make a little bit of money and get work experience directly applicable to their future careers. Many are in fact ultimately hired by the company they do their work terms for. The school likes it because the workterms enhance the academic studies of the students with practical experience in the field. The companies like it because they get a constant supply of cheap and (usually) keen young labour. Hope that helps.

My first association would be the one given by Axel, and I would assume "work student" (without a hyphen) would raise similar associations in the UK. "Working student" would probably also do, although, depending on the context, this could as well indicate the student was actively studying, rather than doing a different job at that very moment. The paid work of a "werkstudent" most often bears no relation to his or her study. My three daughters are post sorters and postmen in the weekends, one also did cucumber packing, street interviewing for Green Peace, and servant's work in a theahouse. My water-bound son works as a guide in a maritime museum, a watchman on a wharf, sailor on a tourist boat, etc. The money is used for "luxury", even an LX in my son's case. When I was at the University, in the 60s, I was lucky enough to get a job in one of the laboratories. Being a "werkstudent" then was to pay your living and study. Many of my friends would work as tomato pickers, dish cleaners, pizza couriers or, preferably, night watchmen (and meanwhile learn for examinations, being working students and work students in the same instance!).

An understudy is someone already fully capable who can take over if the performer is ill. A copilot is also a fully qualified pilot, able to do everything the pilot can do. Someone has to be in charge and that's the pilot, but they're really expected to be equal in ability, or nearly so. The company I retired from was in the stock market and we had intern traders. They were postgraduate students who came and did the job of a trader during the summer, but with much supervision. A few of them, when they graduated, came to work for us as traders later.

Our company looked for promising students and offered this as an opportunity. They worked during the summer and learned the business and we got to take a look at them and see if we wanted to keep them. I think the problem is that everyone is trying to attach shades of meanings to each word but they're often interchangable. I'm not familiar with co-op but I think "apprentice" and "intern" can be used interchangably. Probably intern is used more in professional positions and apprentice is used more in craft positions, but I think they're interchangable.

A solution that does not require duplicate autoexec.bat files or other workarounds is to simply move the A:\; to the end of the path statement and you will avoid the error. By placing it at the end of the statement, all your DOS calls in your autoexec.bat file follow the stream of the path, ie the search begins at c:\dos;c:\;d:\;d:\bin;c:\dos and then finally to A:\; but only if what you are calling via autoexec.bat hasn't already been found in the previous path string. If there is no pcmcia card in Drive A, you will not get an error unless you have a DOS call in your autoexec.bat that cannot be satisfied by the path string. Bob Bob Christopher .

From what Daniel and Geert have said, it sounds as if the German term refers to students who are working in some job, not related to their study, to make ends meet, raise their standard of living, or avoid taking out loans. I don't think either intern or co-op are appropriate since they describe work that is related to the career being pursued. Geert's description makes me think of the old song with the lines, "I'm working my way through college..." Seems like "working student" is the best match I've heard so far.

I can still read my flash card as drive A:, but none of the "new" drives will work. BTW, I have a 20MB SunDisk card with only one partition on it. Bob P.S. Win95 documentation says the CARDDRV switch is /SLOT=n, where n is the number of PCMCIA slots, but internally, CARDDRV says the switch is /PART=n, where n is the maximum number of card partitions.

Have you tried Goin' Postal? This is said to be easy to set up, needs not so much disk space, is free, and easy to handle. I don't know about its capability regarding different connection setup handling, but I assume it is possible to develop some mechanisms similar to setcom.bat used in the www/lx setup. See also http://www.daniel-hertrich.de/wwwlx If GP doesn't support such mechanisms by itself, you can maybe write some batch files which recognize the kind of connection, chooses the dependant ISP and modifies the config file of GP... No idea if this would work, since I don't know GP, but if it uses ASCII config files, this should work in some way.

Actually, GP is quite good at managing multiple dial-up methods. If e-mail is your only interest, it would be a good bet. If you also want Usenet news, you might have a look at LXTCP/PNR.

Take the 700LX apart and you can remove the datacard from it and end up with a second slot, but I don't think it works as a normal slot (i.e., I don't think a flash card works in it).

No it isn't, though quite hidden. When I first openen up my 700 I was quite surprised to find, that the phone is not connected via something customized and proprietary but rather a standard Nokia Cellular Data Card exactly the same as I had bought for my notebook. This being a PCMCIA card makes its connector a PCMCIA slot.

But I think it would be possible to let it hold a modem mermanently (since the Noia Datacard is something similar). Has anyone tried that? So if you swap often between a modem and a flash card, you could use a 700LX, mount the modem permanently into the Datacard slot (if you don't need the datacard), and use the regular PCMCIA slot for the flash disk. What does LXCIC say if invoked on a 700LX? Does it recignize the Nika Datacard in the second slot as well as any card in the first slot?

How is a second PCMCIA slot connected to the motherboard? Just in parallel to the first one? If so, it should be no too big problem to solder a CF card (or the innards of one) permanently to the PCMCIA contacts of the motherboard. Does anyone have a spare 200LX motherboard and a small CF card to try? Maybe it would even fit into the 200LX then. I have not taken a CF card apart yet, but if you don't have any memory expansion board in your LX, there is eventually enough room for the circuit board of a CF card.

How is a second PCMCIA slot connected to the motherboard? Just in parallel to the first one? If so, it should be no too big problem to solder a CF card (or the innards of one) permanently to the PCMCIA contacts of the motherboard. Does anyone have a spare 200LX motherboard and a small CF card to try? Maybe it would even fit into the 200LX then. I have not taken a CF card apart yet, but if you don't have any memory expansion board in your LX, there is eventually enough room for the circuit board of a CF card.

The ISA card has two Type II sockets, and a ribbon cable goes to a second pair that fit in a 3.5" floppy bay. If you're interested, I have another combo that doesn't have the sockets in the ISA card, just two sockets that fit in a 3.5' bay. I accidentally bid on and won both in my first time on Ebay.

CodeView is (was) the debugger shipped with the Microsoft compilers back in the days before everything ran under Windows. AFAIK it was never a separate product on its own. I don't have a copy handy so I can't tell you how big it is, but it should run on the LX since early versions ran fine on XTs.
 
Good luck finding it. If you can find a pre-Windows Microsoft compiler, you may be able to get it that way.

I have a 1995 vintage IBM 40MB PC card that has seen daily use in my LX. All of a sudden it failed today. I put it in the slot and the system can't read it.

If it is a mobile phone with data cable, it is probably a missing DCD line on the data cable. The only way to get around it is to either build your own data cable as I describe on http://www.daniel-hertrich.de/s25_hplx of connect the DCD line (pin 1) of the HP-side plug with another line which is "1" during the whole call (probably DSR, but I am not sure).

Now, a line syslog "this is written to the syslog file" is enough.

Thanks for the idea! Rexx is definitely a powerful tool and I wanted to learn it for a long time ;-) But for such a purpose, isn't it too slow? Doesn't the whole interpreter have to be loaded for just one ts call in a batch file? How big is the interpreter executable?

It can be dirty contacts, of course, as well as maybe a loose contact inside the card. All in all, if you can afford the money, I would strongly suggest you to buy aa new one, since your data is not safe anymore. Even if it is inly a loose contact or dirt, it can damage your file system seriously. If you don't want to buy a now card, first try compressed air to blow out dirt, then try a _very_small_ amount of contact spray, maybe applied with a needle to every hole.

It is worth leaving here all that Russel Hemery has said on this topic because it sums up precisely the position here in Ireland and the UK. There is no one word to correspond to Werkstudent. University students here get work experience in the manner he describes. The important part is that the work is related to their studies and the careers they hope to follow. "Co-op" in the UK and Ireland is the abbreviation for any co-operative enterprise, mostly consumer co-ops as reinvented ( Rochdale, 1844) in the 19th century. Members are charged the regular retail prices but have any profits credited to them in proportion to their purchases. Work-study in the UK and Ireland (and probably Europe) is Time and Motion study which was pioneered in the US by Gilbreth and Taylor and which involves the analysis and redesign of work methods.

There are other versions such as the that is included with IBM's PCDOS. Yes, there is a delay loading and running Rexx. Personal Rexx can be loaded resident to speed up loading but then it uses up memory. Basically you don't use Rexx for tasks where performance is critical. One advantage to Rexx is that it is an interpreted language. I can always look at the executable to see what it does; you may not be able to that with a .COM/.EXE if you've lost the source. Cheers...

Very weird. Weird, indeed.. Did you reboot BEFORE you began to comment something out and tried it after a reboot? Maybe you have started a program which stopped the drriver from detecting the hotkey(s) and after a reboot it would have worked again even without commenting out other TSRs.

How does LXCIC handle that? the PCMCIA card is accessed through Socket Services. The 200LX SDK says: From Socket Services viewpoint, the HP palmtop has one adapter (number 0) and the adapter has one socket (number 1), which is the PCMCIA card slot. LXCIC always only uses the socket number 1. I don't know, if the 700LX for example has a socket 1 and a socket 2, or if it has 2 adapters with one socket each, or if the built in Nokia modem card is accessed completely different. The SDK also states, that a Socket, which has been used for something else than a memory card, is reset to generic memory card operation after the card has been removed. IMHO this implies, that after removing the Nokia data card from the 700LX the slot should be available and setup for memory cards, which it is obviously not. Therefore I think it is handled different to the external PCMCIA socket.

Yeah I rebooted before and after each change. I made enough changes and reboots without carefully recording what I was doing that I don't remember each step now.

Still, I will tell about the pitfalls I encountered: For the much faster turnaround times on changing settings and the nice big screen, I prefer trying things out on the big machines first. W98 games console, DOS window: freezes everything including keyboard reset, requires hard reset. W98 booted to DOS without GUI: doesn't work. COM port seems to lose characters, can't dial. Now I got my ultimate DOS machine, a 486DX66 notebook with 8 MB, MSDOS 5.0 and WIN 3.11, which was given to me but not yet used in earnest. Very bad news: COM loses characters. In another terminal (DSZ in terminal mode) it became especially visible with AT&V: the first two or three characters of every line are missing! -> Any helpful hints for that one? I was hoping to use the thing for montoring undocumented serial connections with proprietary hardware drivers. The last thing I tried was the DOS window invoked from WIN 3.11, and lo and behold: success! So then I set everything up started it, dialled, got to PPP negotiation flash onto the screen, then hangup and nothing in the debug logfile. After thoroughly getting fed up with that I decided to try the HP after all. Setting up does require more patience! But the plus side of being very much slower: I could now read the screen and found: "DNS server not found" or something like that. Looking very, very carefully and zooming to the larges print I finally saw why: I had copied the files after the first trials and setup on the big games console. German keyboards have a comma in the numeric field. In Windows I have replaced that with the far more sensible and international point, but not yet found how in DOS. So, you guessed it, commas in the DNS instead of points! One problem remains, and that is one I am currently talking about with Steven Lawson: Of my four ISPs only one offers unauthentificated smtp access. Normally I use the smtp not of the isp but of the mailserver, either via smtp after pop or with password authentification. Perhaps he'll do something about that, if not I'm stuck with the one, which is one more or infinitely more than none. So now I can save scarce and valuable room on C: by deleting nettamer from there.

I would like to transfer appointment book entries from my HP95 to a Siemens S35i appointment book using the infra red link capabilities of both devices. Logic tells me that this procedure should be possible but so far I have not been able to progress beyond locking up the 95 (requiring removal of all power, reformatting drive 'C' and then restoring system using back-up contained on PCMCIA memory card) when trying to use ir.exe :-( Assuming I eventually have an application running on the 95 (am going to try the only other application located thus far [IR-Print v1 copyright (c) 1993 by Thomas Rundel] and format S35 data as a print file) that will establish some form of communication with the S35, the next issue is the format of what is being transferred! The idea I have is to mark HP appointment book entries that I want to appear in the S35 appointment list with a flag in the 'Notes' field (or use tagging function from within 'Notepad' application as developed by Charles Hayden) and then run whatever is required to effect the transfer and updating of the S35i entries. Am I expecting too much? Would an alternative to be use HP95 > Desk PC and then PC > phone application(s) using serial connections? Is the protocol for data transfer to the S35 freely available and if so where? Hopefully someone somewhere has ALL the answers for me (and anyone else interested in linking the two devices ! Looking forward to some the solution but until then, KEEP SMILING:-) All the best from Nigel R P.S.

When I fill in a day's food info, and then save to my user name, I lose all the data from the food. I can still see the list of the food I inputed, but non of the caloric values and amount are saved. I get this message, file fragmented or invalid file header a:\database.db4 I get that when ever I try to save or retrieve info that I placed into the program. I have it currently on my A drive, in a dos software carrousel area. There is plenty of room in the area. Also, I had the same problem when I moved it to the C drive. I have a 32 db speed machine. What it looks like is that the database.db4 isn't saving any info. I tried to manually enter a new food, and it wouldn't save it. any one know this software?

Could anyone open his double slot and look if the two PCMCIA slots are jsut in parallel or if there is more logic? If these slots are in parallel (only the Card enable / Card detect 1/2 signals are for one slot only), the Accurite driver might work. Otherwise, I don't see any way to make it possible to use an internal mounted CF memory and in addition use the PCMCIA slot as usual.

When you subscribed, you got a short introduction into listserv usage. This introduction sais how to order a reference card of listserv commands. One of these commands lets you change the subscription address. It was something like CHANGE HPLX-L newaddress or something liks that. Since I'm not sure, please have a look at the reference card.

SMTP after POP should be relatively easy to implement, but SMTP-AUTH requires more work. In case Steven will not implement one of the two, you could simulate SMTP after POP by once going online only with POP access and then going online once more using SMTP, if Going Postal allows that. But it dows only work if you use the same internet connection (i.e. don't redial), because your IP address would probably change and the SMTP recognizes you by letting the POP server store your IP address.

According to Tiqit, although this feature was previously considered impossible to engineer, the eightythree is not a concept product. Inste= ad, Tiqit says it has built ? a mass produced -- a fully functioning x86 handheld device out of cutting-edge but available parts, designed specifically for enterprise use and immediate production. The computer will be introduced at CeBIT, the world's largest telecommunications a= nd IT conference, scheduled for next week, March 13-20, in Hannover, Germany. According to the company, eightythree offers cl= ear benefits to the enterprise community. Workers reportedly gain increased mobility and function with a device that allows them to depend on a single operating system, and compan= ies can reduce their total cost of ownership. Possessing the storage capacity and processing power to enable the extension of many software services to areas formerly unreachable= , the eightythree also has the flexibility of using all of the software and hardware extensio= ns currently available in the mainstream PC market, Tiqit maintains. "This product will greatly accelerate adoption = and use of handhelds in the enterprise," said Ian Blasch, CEO, Tiqit Computers. "It uses stan= dard operating systems -- Windows XP, Linux or UNIX -- and is compatible with all associated applications, including legacy software. Almost anything you can do on a lapto= p or PC, you can do on eightythree -- only it is smaller and more mobile." The eightythree form factor is 5.4-in long, 4-i= n wide, 1.1-in thin and weighs 20 oz. It is the size of a large PDA, has laptop-quality screen resolution, SMS keyboard, thumb-operated micro joystick with mouse buttons, touchscreen,= a cardbus PC card slot to support all standard wireless modems, a USB port, a Secure Digital (SD) slot and internal speaker. Therefore, says Tiqit, it connects with other standard devices, from digital cameras to bar code scanners to docking stations. On the softw= are end, it incorporates all the applications you would find on a laptop or PDA, including vo= ice communication, e-mail, web access, PIM, enterprise applications and the ability to= download attachments. In terms of components, eightythree's CPU is th= e National Semiconductor Geode, 266-300 MHz, RAM is 128 MB or 256 MB, and there is a 10= GB hard drive. The screen is a 4-in 640X480 TFT (18-bit color) with touchscreen and= backlight. The external monitor displays up to 1280 x 1024 at 75 Hz, 1024 x 768 at 85 Hz= . eightythree is powered by an internal lithium ion rechargeable battery.

Hi Daniel, If a "References:" header is added to the mailbox template then, when replying to a message, POST/LX will send the Message-ID from the parent e-mail . While reading messages in POST/LX pressing "Alt-T" (T for "thread") and then "P" will find the Parent message (if it is still in the mailbox). When composing a new message then the "References:" part of the template is not filled and not sent. So, it works well. - Tony ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Tue, 12 Mar 2002 00:35:43 +0530 Reply-To: pksharma Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: pksharma Subject: Re: New DOS (Win, Linux, etc.) handheld MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Its a fully fledged complete working desktop equivalent but in a very small form factor .. a MatchboxPC ..

Is there some way to do a simple conversion using the > connectivity pack (or anything else)? I have neither 100LX nor J568 - my gear is 200LX an J720. The issue, I gues, is how to convert databases and appointments into PocketOutlook. You should use your desktop Outlook to import comma separated text databases. It is quite intuitive to assign the fields of one database to the fields in Outlook. In the next step you can sync Outlook with PocketOutlook and you should be set. I assume that you know how to create comma separated text files on the palmtop.

This might be an approach: a) Create a driver to catch requests to PCMCIA socket 2. When this is requested, instead of asserting CE1 and CE2, assert A9 and A10 of the PCMCIA slot.( Or any other two address lines). b) Rewire A9 and A10 from the PCMCIA socket to the CE1 and CE2 of the CF card. e.g. assert A9 and A10 (inverted?) on the PCMCIA, while pulling _REG high. ( The address and CE logic use exactly the same timings, so this should work. Then the second card is normally addressed and handled. OR: Find out which two lines on the Hornet drive the CE1 and CE2 on the second slot. This can be done by ohming out pins 7 and 42 of the second PCMCIA socket of a 700LX with the Hornet's pins. Connect these to the CF's CE1 and CE2, and they should work without problems. Alternatively, use a small i/o address coder for asserting IO read and IO write, and connect the CF to (mostly) the memory extension socket in 'True Ide' mode, again, CE1 and 2 to address lines. Needs a small IDE driver, but avoids most PCMCIA troubles.

The RIM Blackberry is about to be released in a GSM/GPRS phone version. It has an SMS style keyboard and is DOS based. If only it had a proper (100LX or 200LX) case and keyboard, a compact flash slot, and the ability to load and run DOS programmes, then Nirvana would be close indeed. Take a look at http://www.blackberry.net/ Having the technical ability of a stunted marmot, I would not even dream of taking on this kind of a project. However, would it be possible to cannibalize the Blackberry, stuff its electronics into a 200LX box, attach a standard screen and a card slot and then have a fully functional DOS based PDA - phone combination? Better yet, would anyone be interested in approaching RIM to see if they would be interested in producing such a desirable gadget?

I need suggestions on routines for utilizing and preserving data. Get a flash card (PCMCIA or Compact Flash), create an automatic recurring appointment on the LX to make a nightly backup copy of your primary data onto the card. Every couple of days (or weekly), manually copy the card's contents onto your notebook or desktop computer, preferably keeping each successive file in a separate directory or filename. There are some good variations on this scheme, but they are primarily icing on the cake. The important point is to make the daily backup automatic, and to keep long term storage of your backups in a separate location. The exact best way to do this will depend on the extent of your computer skills, and your available resources (ie, time and money).

I should be able to get the digests from there and use that acct to try to figure out why the boeing server considers some of the HPLX-L digests as spam. In the long term I have an open ticket with our IT group to look at the problem. If anyone has tried to reach me and ether I have not responded or you rx an error msg, please contact me at the cpt_kludge@yahoo.com address IN ADDITION to my regular address at joseph.buford@hsc.com or joseph.e.buford@boeing.com. This way at least I will know when I have missed msg's even if I have to pick them up from yahoo. The weird thing about the errors is that if someone tries to send a digest (that originally bounced to me) then it will still bounce even when coming from someone other than the HPLX-L listserv(ie:Laurence or Bob). Same thing if I send it to my boeing acct from my yahoo acct. However, if I split into 2 messages and send both at the same time to my boeing acct, they get thru fine. This seems to indicate that the size of the msg may be part(or all) of the problem. However, I have rx lots of HPLX-L msg's that are way larger than the ones that errored(ie:#42), with no problems. I also am subscribed to an Electric Vehicle list that usually has msg's >50K and I rarely have a problem rx them. If anyone has an idea as to what may be going on or any other help and/or suggestions, please let me know. Thanks Joe Buford __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

I have no problems receiving any email via GMX, just no list email are arriving. It is NOT related to GMX, because I have subscribed with other addresses (kanfu23 at onlinehome.de and mikeoldfield at gmx.net). No list mails, either. It is NOT a spam filter problem, because I disabled all spam filters at GMX, still no messages. So I think the problem must be at the list server.

I have no problems receiving any email via GMX, just no list email are arriving. It is NOT related to GMX, because I have subscribed with other addresses (kanfu23 at onlinehome.de and mikeoldfield at gmx.net). No list mails, either. It is NOT a spam filter problem, because I disabled all spam filters at GMX, still no messages. So I think the problem must be at the list server.

Infoave "wholesales" their services through lots of small telephone companies primarily across the southeast United States. My account is bpenick at pbtcomm.net. But they alias the email address using just the bpenick. Because of this they cannot use the bpenick part with any other local ISP they service, as it is already taken by me. Any email sent to bpenick at any of the other domain names Infoave hosts will show up in my mailbox. So in effect I have MANY email addresses with just one mailbox.

I have an HP200LX DS 32M that as of a few months ago, is going through batteries like there's no tomorrow. I'm changing them just over once a day. I'd estimate I'm getting about 2-3 hours out of a set. I believe when I first got the DS upgrade a few years ago, I would last at least a week or more. I know that DS palmtops use more battery life, but when I take out the alkaline batteries and test them (with a battery tester and the one built into the battery), they're still good!

Here is how: 1.) copy APPMGR.DAT APPMGR.BAK (backup) 2.) start Datacomm (or what you like) and transfer APPMGR.DAT to your desktop. (I do this because I'm using Xtree Gold and it's too big to carry around on my palmtop. Xtree has a HEX editor built-in. You could use Debug, but I'm not that good.) 3.) Using a HEX editor (Xtree) find the first letter of the application you want to remove in the APPMGR.DAT file. (first letter includes & if used as a hot-key "tag") 4.) Count back, using the first letter as Zero, ten(10) characters. (remember, the & counts as a character if it's used to underline (hot key) the first letter of the application title.) NOTE: Depending on the location of the application on your desktop, you should see (in the 11th position) a value (HEX) that corresponds to the location of the application on your desktop. 5.) Starting with the 10th character ( -10 from the first char of the application ) Overtype (replace, not delete) the next 115 chars with 00 HEX (zeros). WARNING: The APPMGR.DAT file _must_ remain the same length! ANOTHER NOTE: You won't have to put zeros in all 115 characters, it looks like only the applications that have notes use the last part of the "slot". 6.) Save the new (edited) APPMGR.DAT file. 7.) Transfer the new APPMGR.DAT file to your palmtop. (put the new file in the c:\_DAT directory) 8.) Re-boot the palmtop. (a re-boot causes the Desktop to re-read the APPMGR.DAT file.) 9.) Open the Desktop (MORE key, you know :) 10.) Look at the location of the application you targeted, it should have no title and a random icon. 11.) Move the selector box to this "weird" icon and press the delete (DEL) key. 12.)

I'm probably not getting the maximum charge that I should, but who has 16+ hrs to spare in the day waiting for a battery to juice up anyway?

I don't know if it's really a superset, or just that implementations of dhcp include support for bootp for backwards compatibility. The dhcp setup at my work will be not be configured to answer bootp requests though. In the wattcp source, when tcp.cfg is read, if my_ip= is followed by a 'b' or a 'd' it turns on bootp support, thus my assumption that "my_ip=dhcp" should work. I have tried this and it didn't work, so I am trying to figure out if it is a problem with lxtcp/wattcp or with the network. Only Win98+ is supported at work so I'm on my own troubleshooting this.

Wondering about the differences, I did a "dir *.* /s>1x_rom.txt" on the single and "dir *.* /s>2x_rom.txt" on the double. started looking for the differences. For whatever it is worth and for whoever is interested, here they are: Hope this displays OK. In the 1.00A version all the directories in D: are dated 3/25/94 and in the newer one they are dated 9/30/94 There are just 5 files that have any differences: CCMADE EXM 50742 04-07-94 5:15p CCMADE EXM 50742 05-23-94 3:13p MAZE EXE 29669 02-17-94 9:34a MAZE EXE 29779 05-06-94 9:11a CCMAIL INI 781 06-07-93 3:46p CCMAIL INI 781 05-06-94 12:09p CABUS HLP 14323 03-08-94 3:10p CABUS HLP 14323 05-26-94 11:14a QHPUS HLP 52488 04-19-94 8:26p QHPUS HLP 52488 09-22-94 11:40p The only one that changed in file size is Maze.exe. Wonder why that one changed? Does anyone out there have a ROM version 1.01A to see what differences that are there? What was the official release date of the 200lx? I know it was before 9/30/94 because I purchased mine on 9/27/94.. In the Omnigo 700lx there are an extra 14 files and newer dates to many.

My SC installation allows DOS sessions with 541,296 bytes of memory; is that enough for your app? SC's expense is a bit of memory (so you only have the 540k above) and disk and/or EXM space to hold the paged out sessions. I set aside 4M of T2T disk space for 255 TREMM 16k EXM pages which is where I have SC swapping to (because it's faster that way). Is SC worth it? YES!!! It's a toss up whether SC or my 32M upgrade is more important. (Either one is more important than the double speed upgrade.) Cheers...

All I (and you) need, is a *documented* format, i agree with you : All we need, is a *documented* format but it's not always that simple. Exemple : It's now about 15 years i use computers. I've written documents in formats .doc(MS word) .wps(MSworks) .cwk(Claris works) .sdw(Star Office).... I now use Linux and Star Office. When i want to re-open old documents with Star Office, i can only open .doc documents, but not Works and Claris documents. If i send a document to someone using MS Word, i can't send him a .sdw (Star Office) document. I found that one of the common file format to all these word-processors is RTF format. So when i create a new document i save it also in .rtf format. If i change my mind next year and want to use again Word i'll be able to reopen my jobs without re-installing a word-processor (and sometimes the operating system) For address-books, the problem is worst. I use HP95LX phone book, kab (the KDE address-book), i have used outlook express, netscape. I still use sometimes Pegasus Mail. There is no common file format you can use between all these programs. The most common (and text-based) are .LDIF and .CSV If i could find a common file format to all those adress-books, i will use it, do believe me...even if it's Bill Gates who creates it !!! My advice : for text documents use .RTF or .HTML or plain text for printable documents(not to be modified) use .PDF for adress-books .LDIF or .CSV Axel, if you don't like Bill Gates, why use Windows 98 ? ;o) @+ -- Marc BERLIOUX Win98 is called Win98 because after the system crashed 98 times, you have to reinstall. ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Fri, 15 Mar 2002 12:51:13 +0200 Reply-To: Daniel Hertrich Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Daniel Hertrich Subject: HPLX Users Database (2nd time) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit grrrrr - I have received about 10 password requests by now!

Don't worry about that, the capacity is only used to generate sensible starting values anyway. After starting (auto-something) and while it is already charging you can adjust them with . So just give it a couple of tries with 600, 900, 1200 mAh and you'll have an idea, what ABC-LX would consider sensible for 1600 mAh. BTW I have found my ca. 900 mAh NiMH (as measured in another charger) a bit difficult.

Thanks - I sure got that wrong - according to www.worldtimezone.com/daylight.html nobody uses the LMFS that I put in!! Probably nobody ever did either. The DST built in to CLOCKS is a bit simplified. But now CLOCKS can interface with WorldTime, this is not such a problem, as TIMEZONE.DAT can be adjusted from year to year. Ah, I see, if D:\_SYS\TIMEZONE.DAT is copied to C:\_DAT then new entries can be added and WorldTime picks them up! Hmm, maybe I should use that TIMEZONE.DAT format for CLOCKS, even when it runs standalone. Yup, especially as the DST can change from year to year - we don't want to be changing them in too many places. Today it is "3M", the 3rd Sunday in March, and we have just gone off Summer Time.

Sorry. ;-) Well, of course 95LX users whould have access to the data as well, so what do you think is the best option to convert the GDB to easily? I think we should maintain only the GDB and everytime we release a new version convert it to a 95LX-readable format and offer both versions for download. Can a GDB easily be converted to the PDB format in some way? Easiest for us is of course to simply dump the data to an ASCII file.

Ethernet Card: http://www.socketcom.com/product/ethernet_card.htm I used the Ruggedized Low Power Ethernet PC Card Solution part #EA0914-337. I used this one due to the mobile nature of the 200lx so I would not have to buy a dongle when it breaks. This card is ALSO CF compatible and uses a PCMCIA adapter to work on PCMCIA machines. The PCMCIA adapter ships with these cards! The card costs $106+shipping from CDW.COM http://www.cdw.com/shop/products/default.asp?EDC=323951 The following drivers are used to operate the card. LXCIC <-- card services LXEN2216 <-- ne2000 compatible driver LXTCP <-- tcpip network stack WWW/LX <-- web browser I also use LXFTP, LXPING for network troubleshooting. Thanks for all the help!

I don't have a 95LX, but I don't use the built-in database program in my 200LX, either. It would be really helpful if the database was also made available in a password protected zipped up ASCII file. This would even work for those who don't actually have an LX and subscribe to this list for the hard to find DOS info. Even better.. is there a simple standalone DOS based utility freely available that can convert a GDB file to an ASCI file? Cheers!

Bob's "master" HPLX_Listmembers DB can be made to maximise those 2 in the following way: 1. remove the checkbox "[x] offers support" and use the space for "skills" reason: there is noone listed who has skills but does not want to offer support, and the space can be used for 2 rows (edit smart clip definition), and is not wasted in the datacard. Bob Lowe shows a cross in his checkbox but then states "skills not specified" (rather confusing) 2. remove the 2 "00" in front of README and replace with a space; rename in subsets the German "Alle Eintraege" to "All Database Items" reason: looks better, and not everyone speaks German 3. edit the subset "People offering support" list (non-data card) by removing the column "e-mail" and replacing it with "skills", then resize the two remaining colums to 10% for "name" and 90% for "skills" reason: it makes it easier scrolling for skills needed, especially for HPLX100 users without a data card 4. Modify the whole database (filer F) to remove the [x] checkbox and extend the e-mail box to accomodate up to 3 e-mail addresses; rename the "location" item to "interests"; put a & before the "S" in skills to easily get to reason: the checkbox is useless; Ken Hansen is mentioned twice and Stuart Grey's 2nd e-mail address is in the notes F3 "comments"; there is no "location" entry for anyone, but entries for "interest" can easily be found - everyone has a hobby! tab 10 times to get to skills is tiring 5. delete 2 of the 3 versions of the skills "database programming/LX basics" (take care that all are connected to the remaing version) and replace the 2 with "EXM programming" and "Carousel"; remove the "skills not specified" and replace with "misc.skills" reason: let the Japanese get some credit, and get some support from Ed Keefe and Hal Goldstein, and last not least let the doctors and mechanics fix your ailing mobility and moving equipment. :) ---- If dear Bob has no time i am willing to 'borrow' the "master" for a day and return it 'improved' .._._ wie steht's Daniel - kannst Du dem Bob mir vertrauen? :) :) :) Nathalie - grabbing the 'Remocon' to fall asleep in front of the box ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Mon, 18 Mar 2002 23:32:55 -0600 Reply-To: Theodore Heise Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Theodore Heise Subject: Re: HPLX312.GDB In-Reply-To: <004901c1cf04$c596d5a0$c5170950@oemcomputer> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII On Tue, 19 Mar 2002, Nathalie Bugeaud wrote: > ...rename in subsets the German "Alle Eintraege" to "All Database Items" I thought the German was sort of cute. -- Ted Heise West Lafayette, IN, USA ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Mon, 18 Mar 2002 17:51:33 +0200 Reply-To: Daniel Hertrich Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Daniel Hertrich Subject: Re: CF inside HP200LX MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Hi Dzon On Mon, 18 Mar 2002 16:12:20 +0100, Dzon wrote: > There are rumours that the compact flash medium's life is not as long as I > thought, ie neverending :). How long can I count the CF card survives when > used regularly as a hard drive? If you use it for a non-multitasking system like the DOS on the 200LX, you can consider it to be immortal, if you buy a modern CF card. I think they are rated at about 1.000.000-10.000.000 write cycles (and unlimited read cycles) per memory cell, so calculate yourself: if it should die after 100 years, you must do at least 1.000.000/100 = 10.000 writes per year per cell, this is 27 writes per day or about 1 write per hour PER memory CELL. A 128 MB CF card has 128 * 1024 * 1024 * 8 = 1.073.741.824 memory cells..... Since you are usually not writing periodically to one specific cell, but you fill up your card with a few programs, so the first half of the card is only written once a yer maybe, and the rest is written far more often, but never as much as required to wear it out, I think this limit is not so important anymore. Differently however if you use such a card as a harddrive in Linux or Windows systems, since there a specific range on the drive, usually even a specific partition under Linux, is used as RAM swap space, and this is written very often under some circumstances, the limit can become very important there. So the best you can do for your card is in all cases to make sure that write cycles are applied to different ranges on the card. This can be caused for example if you sometimes copy a large program folder to another location and delete the original folder. Then a large amount of space becomes free for your data files which you work on and newer copies of these data files are written into that space instead of where they have been written before. The new copy of the large program folder will block the range where data files may have been written before. This is all a statistical thing, and you can never be sure, a memory cell may even fail after the 10th write or it may fail not before the 100.000.000.000th write, but as always, we must use and work with the statistical numbers. Personally, I never care about this limit in the way I described above (moving large fixed data blocks), I also never care about using my rechargeables efficiently, because I think the amount of work and thinking which is necessary for this kind of maintenance is far more than the amount of money and maybe time to simply replace the dead CF card or battery. Of course, this is only true if you always have a recent backup!

For a regular connection (HSCSD or justplain 9600) you do not need a special version of WWW.exe. But if you would like to use GPRS you need one. The T39/T68 has a bug in the implementition of PPP in GPRS thats why you need a special Www.exe. NOTHING wrong with Www/LX but it is the Ericsson. I hope this helped.

There is no phone book manager. But there is Robot/LX and the robot script "phone.scr", which enables you to download or upload the whole phone book via WWW/LX and Robot/LX. So you can download it, maintain it with a text editor and upload it again. Or you can use the 200LX built-in phonebook as the "master" phone book and let my program PDB2PHN create a phone book which you can then upload to the phone. This is what I do. http://www.daniel-hertrich.de/pdb2x Or you can write an own phonebook maintenance program in the Robot/LX scripting language. Since all phnone book maintenance can be done voa AT commands through a cable or IrDA interface, this is theoretically possible.

Actually, a PCMCIA network card in a double-speed 200LX can do around 450-500kbps.

FWIW, Socket Communications no longer directly sells the LPE in a PCMCIA form, which uses about 65ma peak. It now sells it's compact flash LPE with cf->pcmcia adapter. Peak power consumption on this card is rated at 19ma (if i remember right) which makes it very light on the batteries, and I believe lxcic has the capabilities to turn off the power to the pcmcia slot as it is. What does this add up to? A quick search brings up the following maximum typical power consumption for cf memory cards @5v/@3.3v during a write: 115/115ma http://www.longshin.com.tw/Company/Products/Download/FLASHMEMCARD.PDF 32/20ma http://www.emjembedded.com/products/flash/compact.html 25/25ma http://www.evalue-tech.com/evalueweb/products/specifications/ACC-CFC.cfm Socket lists the power consumption of the lpe (ea0914-337 et al) @3.3v active: 19ma ftp://ftp.socketcom.com/ea/lpepcdatasheet.pdf So the ethernet card is just about the same as the average cf card doing nothing but writes. Even with both active, you're likely to get more than an hour of battery life.

However, some modification of the case would be necessary to get the LAN connection out, so you could also add a small slide switch to manually turn the ethernet card on and off. Another possible alternative would be to combine two CF cards in a single PCMCIA card. I think the dimensions are OK, but some additional electronics and software probably would be needed. One can dream. -----Original Message----- From: Feher Tamas [mailto:feher.tamas@2FKFT.COM] Sent: Tuesday, March 19, 2002 3:52 AM To: HPLX-L@UCONNVM.UCONN.EDU Subject: Re: 200lx ethernet adapter Hello, >>SocketCom Ruggedized Low Power Ethernet >>PC Card Solution part #EA0914-337 > >An ethernet card like this gets my vote as a prime >candidate for occupying an internal "Slot2", if one is >possible.

I have one of the early 10 meg Sundisk (now Sandisk) cards and it came with a program called wear that looks for any sectors that are slowing down on writes (that's how they wear out) and swaps the contents of those sectors with the contents of fast sectors, letting the card wear evenly. It's called wear levelling. Anyway I've run it once or twice a year and each time it checks and says that the card doesn't need wear leveling yet. I suppose that means nothing has slowed down yet. This is one of the early technology cards that was rated at something like 200,000 writes. Or maybe it was 400,000. I forget. Todays cards are rated at 4,000,000 writes. I used this card heavily for a number of years and then about 2 or 3 years ago I moved it to the 200lx I keep by my desktop computer to remember websites, passwords, software registration codes, etc. Also phone numbers. I guess it's had only light to moderate use since then. As far as I know it's still perfect. In recent years I do grit my teeth everytime I run wear.exe. Someday it'll give me bad news. :) As I understand it, when they do wear out they lose their ability to write to the worn out sectors. But they can still be read and the rest of the card can still be written to. So, with a little tinkering with Norton's editor the card should still be safely usable for years after it begins to wear out.

There is another issue which I think will extend a CF's life. DOS, starting with release 3 (I think), started selecting where it would next write on a drive by searching for free space from where it last looked. Previously it always started from the front of the drive. The purpose of this change was to keep from over writing deleted files right away and therefore allowing un-erase to have a higher chance of success. I remember reading about this change but I never looked into the details to confirm it actually does as I described. If it does work this way it will assist in prolonging a flash card's life by not always writing to those available sectors near the front of the drive. Cheers...

Thanks Daniel. I had already studied your pages, but I still can't make it work. I include below the relevant parts of my www.cfg file. It may very well be that I'm doing something fundamentally wrong with www/lx. I used to use it together with Post/LX daily, but the last year or so I haven't been using it and have forgotten all the setup details. That's why I thought it might be a better idea to try to see if I can establish an IrDA connection at all with my phone, and then move on to www/lx once I get that working. So I downloaded the IR.EXE program and tried it out, just to see if I can send an AT command or perhaps send or receive a VCARD. But I can't make that work either, so perhaps my phone setup is wrong, although I can't find other settings for the IR in the phone except to switch it on or off. The LX does see the phone, because it reports it is "Talking with T39", but after a few seconds it reports "IrDA connection failed". ************** www.cfg start ******************* ; Configuration file for WWW ; A.

MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain MEMCARD requires the Microsoft Flash File System Driver (MS-FLASH.SYS) in order to work with Flash cards. (This information is in the text in MEMCARD, which can be read using Notepad on an Windows machine, or Debug or other programs under DOS. I use DR.COM, an old PC Magazine file utility.) MS-FLASH probably needs some other card and/or socket drivers to work, but I haven't tried it out you. BTW, I was able to download an OB450 version of MEMCARD from http://24.237.160.4/files/omnibook/ob425/Software/ROMcard/. I also have versions of MEMCARD and MS-FLASH from a Toshiba laptop I also have. MEMCARD looks a lot like FDISK when you run it: you can view, change or delete partitions, which can be MS-DOS or MS-FLASH. On an SRAM card, you are limited to MS-DOS partitions. If I have time today, I plan to try out MS-FLASH, as well as some Phoenix Card Manager software from the Toshiba. The PCM suite includes an ATA card driver that looks promising.

ATA cards use a PCMCIA ATA driver, and copies sectors to buffer memory, linear cards are mapped into memory ( a bit like EMS), and directly addressed, almost exactly like the internal C: RAM disk. Totally different drivers. Hence, if the 'memory disk'driver can map/page internal memory as C:, and a Sram partition as A:, it may very easily map another Sram partition as B - .

Anyone know what the available switches are for the built-in FDISK100? "FDISK100 /?" gives a terse message, and other things I have tried, such as "/2" give an "Invalid switch" message.

The value is used to generate a "reasonable" set of starting values, and it is CERTAINLY not cast in stone, rock, or any other hard mineral. I believe this is also explained in the manual (I am not sure any more...) Regarding "Autotune": This is an APPROXIMATE process - just _something_ to START with. You can BYPASS it altogether and use other values which people have had reasonable experiences with and you will still get good results even without autotuning. E.g. Stop charging when voltage hits 2.95V, or when you charged 15 hours, or when the voltage has not changed in 3 hours. Start charging at 2.50V (my favorite. You can go lower, but that means you deplete the battery more before beginning to charge it up again.) If you find that these values do not give optimal results (whatever "optimal" is!) then tweak these values and learn from your own experience which is the best setting for YOUR set of batteries (did anyone mention that batteries change? Any pair can display VERY different behaviour from another pair! And they even change over time!) Lastly, so many people perceive that ABC/LX is TOTALLY accurate and that it can produce 100% accurate results with batteries. That is not so. People sometimes think this program will make their batteries work 100% consistently from charge cycle to another. That is not so - the batteries are chemical "factories" and they are affected by so many variables: Temp, rate of discharge, manufacturing inconsistencies, and so on. And then I have this "pet" gripe: I see people spend hours on research (I do not know that you did this). They will measure batteries: charging, discharging. They will devise scientific-level experiments and demand accuracy of 1 minute per whatever. They spend huge amounts of time chasing another peak voltage, another 5 minutes per discharge cycle. In truth: We designed ABC/LX so it REMOVES all this nonsensical waste of time (Sorry Battery researchers - I really feel that this pursuit of another minute, or even 20 is simply a waste.) The point of the program is to give you a tool that will do your work for you. It will sit in the background and monitor the status of the battery. When it deems that recharging is needed, it will do so. Otherwise nothing. It will provide you with GOOD OR BETTER results. Sometimes even EXCELLENT. But mostly it will give you good service and save you time and take out one item OUT OF YOUR LIFE that you need to worry about. All you need to do is monitor it for awhile, decide what is a reasonable set of parameters, and let go! Maybe once every 6 months re-visit your parameters, watch the battery for awhile and decide if a change is needed. Consider all this time NOT SPENT on tweaking the parameters daily, or several times per day as our gift to you - a valuable gift of time! Take the dog for a walk on the beach, maybe read a story to your child, or take you beloved to a concert, a movie, or just a walk. So this is how to use ABC/LX: Monitor briefly to see that you get reasonable time from the batteries. If it is 11hrs and 10 minutes, or 10hrs 57 minutes is just not worth tracking in detail (IMHO). Set up the parameters (or use the values above). Use your palmtop in good health. When you see an adapter, plug it in. ABC/LX will decide for you if it should be actively charging or not. You can use your time to DO WORK on the palmtop.

It seems to work well, and can even fire up my Eudora (and presumably even my Post/LX on the desktop. My Palmtop broke physically) two-tree weeks ago and I am reduced to Eudora on the desktop (which I like a lot.) (I will eventually also set up POST/LX on the desktop for some fast email runs. What I have been doing in Eudora is very strong filtering: If any header contains "mortgage" or "insurance" or "domain names" etc - then delete that email item on the server, and the copy on the machine move to folder "??TRASH??". There are several other such very broad filters, such as words used by porno sites, casinos, viagra and other pharmaceuticals dealers, and things like "DVD copy", "targeted mailing", and so on. Of the 200 emails daily received in all the email accounts, about 150-190 are trash. They end up in the ??TRASH?? folder. I use the ??TRASH?? folder as my last resort: I go over it fairly quickly once a day in case a real email got filtered by mistake, then I delete the entire batch at once. This seems to work out well to stave off the assault of spam without adding much time. I have long been looking at some way to send back an indication to the spammer that my email address is a dead one, and MAILWASHER seems to be the tool for this. I just wonder if that bounce somehow reveals that it was created by Mailwasher. I like that it lets me check emails up front, even see the whole text, if necessary. Nice tool. Thanks for the tip.

Comments: To: flora@MINPOST.NU In-Reply-To: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed Rolf, The files where messages andattachments are stored (such as mail.i) are essentially readable because they are ASCII. However, there is a separator between messages containing binary characters. I routinely open the .I files in editors such as PE and MEMO, as well as Word, Notepad, etc. I am not sure what the last part is - what do you mean extracting .DOC files from the message files? If you mean attachments, then yes, just press CTRL-M and the attachment will be saved as the file name it was attached with and you can then process it with whatever opens .DOC files. (I presume you do not mean MEMO-style .DOC files.) There is a program called VIEW which will open .DOC files and strip the formatting and just show the contents and it can be directly activated to view .DOC files - see the www.dasoft.com webpage for the trick on this. If I made too many assumptions and missed your meaning, let me know. Avi (from sunny, really, Minnesota!)

Here's how: Run the registry editor: Start->Run->regedit Edit the following key: My Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Command Processor\CompletionChar Set the key value to 9 (ASCII for TAB). exit the registry editor and restart your command prompt window(s).

If it follows the full 802.11b standard (wireless LAN), it cannot be so little power consumption that it can be driven in the LX (because the TX power of 802.11b is already higher than the power the LX can provide).

There is no phone book manager. But there is Robot/LX and the robot script "phone.scr", which enables you to download or upload the whole phone book via WWW/LX and Robot/LX. So you can download it, maintain it with a text editor and upload it again.

The one purchased from Nokia (DLR-3P) does work. It requires installation of the Nokia modem on your laptop, for your laptop to be able to communicate via that cable.

There are a lot of differences in the way a PC handles a floppy drive and a hard drive. The Oliveti BIOS expects to find the floppy drive(s) in a certain place. The BIOS is probably just like any other PC BIOS and expects what it finds there to be an actual floppy drive. Since the flash card presents itself as an ATA device the BIOS probably treats it automatically as a hard drive. A: and B: are reserved for floppy drives. That's why the first hard drive is C: whether there are 1 or 2 floppies. The 200lx, on the other hand, is designed to treat the PCMCIA slot as a floppy drive. That was probably it's primary intended purpose and the BIOS was probably designed with that in mind.

You need the null modem connector because the cable is meant to connect the HP to another computer, so the send and receive lines are switched from what you need for the mouse. Next, plug the mouse into the null modem connector. Unfortunately, this cable combination is a bit unwieldy, but is necessary unless you can make a short regular serial cable (HP to DE9 male). I load the supplied mouse driver (APMOUSE.SYS) in my Config.sys file. Add the following line to your config.sys file, adjusting the "C:\" to match the path were you have APMOUSE.SYS: DEVICE=C:\APMOUSE.SYS Note that there are no spaces in the line. Make sure that the serial port is turned on. If you use Buddy, make sure it is also unlocked in Buddy. Reboot the computer with the mouse connected. During the boot process, you will get a screen message that the driver has or has not been installed properly. You can use the test program that also comes with the mouse to verify that it is working. -----Original Message----- From: Marta Pierce [mailto:Marta1@attbi.com] Sent: Wednesday, March 20, 2002 11:57 PM To: HPLX-L@UCONNVM.UCONN.EDU Subject: Barbie Design Center With Pen Mouse Hello Listers, Okay, I just recived my barbie mouse.

I just checked J and R Computer World and for $199 or less you can choose from a number of drives. They even have 40 gig drives at $179 and $189. These are new prices. I have a 6 gig Archos Jukebox which is a good mp3 player with a hard drive and it also works fine as a portable hard drive. J and R doesn't carry the 6 gig model but they have the 10 gig model for $219.

I know exactly how you feel. Last spring I flew into Boston to attend a conference. My flight arrived late in the evening. I was exhausted, but tried reading e-mail on my 32M HP200LX during the cab ride to the hotel. Finding the light too low, I set the palmtop on the seat next to me, intending to look at it as soon as there was more light. Well, you guessed it. I was tired enough that I didn't think about picking it up, and didn't realize what had happened until I was checking in at the hotel and the cab had left. I called the Boston taxi lost and found and posted a reward for the unit, but I never heard anything back. The three days of that conference were a nightmare--I ended up with a fistful of handwritten notes to be trancribed later. The worst was being without contact information and e-mail. I called Thaddeus from Boston and had a new unit the day I returned home. Luckily I had a recent backup, so I only lost about a week's worth of work.

I know exactly how you feel. Last spring I flew into Boston to attend a conference. My flight arrived late in the evening. I was exhausted, but tried reading e-mail on my 32M HP200LX during the cab ride to the hotel. Finding the light too low, I set the palmtop on the seat next to me, intending to look at it as soon as there was more light. Well, you guessed it. I was tired enough that I didn't think about picking it up, and didn't realize what had happened until I was checking in at the hotel and the cab had left. I called the Boston taxi lost and found and posted a reward for the unit, but I never heard anything back. The three days of that conference were a nightmare--I ended up with a fistful of handwritten notes to be trancribed later. The worst was being without contact information and e-mail. I called Thaddeus from Boston and had a new unit the day I returned home. Luckily I had a recent backup, so I only lost about a week's worth of work.

One of my other interests is Shortwave Radio. I recently happened upon the ILGRadio site. HTTP://www.ilgradio.com/ ILGRadio has a database of Shortwave broadcasters, worldwide. ILGSTLAN.ZIP at this site, contains individual databases in LINUX text format, for broadcasts in English, French / Creole, German, Arabic, Italian, Dutch / Afrikaans, Portuguese, Russian / Ukrainian, Spanish and "Nordic" (Danish Icelandic, Norwegian, Swedish, and Finnish). You guessed it. I just had to have the English broadcast database in my palmtop for on-the-go listening. I have written a program that converts the ILGRadio LINUX format databases into something that GDBLOAD can accept. I used my program and GDBLOAD (available on SUPER) to convert the ILGSTENG.TXT English broadcast database into ILGSTENG.GDB. There is a catch here. In order to get the ILGRadio database, you need to register at the ILGRadio site. The bad news is that it takes a few days to get a Userid/Password for download. The good news is that it is free for noncommercial use. I can't give away the ILGSTENG.GDB database, but I can give away the tools to create it. If there are any other shortwave listeners on the HPLX list that would find this of benefit, I can clean it up and make it available. ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Fri, 22 Mar 2002 11:39:24 +0800 Reply-To: Adrian Ho Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Adrian Ho Subject: Re: Happy Ending (Was: The saddest day in my life) In-Reply-To: <20020321220308.C20538@shot.org>; from matrix@SHOT.ORG on Thu, Mar 21, 2002 at 10:03:09PM -0500 Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii On Thu, Mar 21, 2002 at 10:03:09PM -0500, Francois Gurin wrote: > Much to the surprise of the mta employees who helped get > the bag back to me, nothing was at all was missing!

You might want to take pictures of them as well. It's easier to show them to the people you talk to, than try to describe them when possibly in a state of panic, semi-coherent, or (when in a foreign country) don't speak the language. Heck, most parents do so with their kids -- not primarily to aid in searching for them when they go missing, but it's useful that way too.

So it seems to be time to collect all our hardware skills and use it not longer for upgrading the HPLX, but for downgrading newer machines. ;-) For example dimming the backlight, making processors slower, replacing color with b/w screens, replacing WinCE ROMs with DOS ROMs....

Well, let`s be honest about one thing: None of those people was ever planning to run a public service, they were out to make money - yours and mine.

Sorry I've been gone so long. Been super-busy with work! I am trying to get my 200LX online via PPP. ALL I NEED IS TELNET. Period. I need to be able to get online via PPP and TELNET OUT to my shell on twu.net. That is IT. I do not need to do e-mail, FTP, Web, etc. on the LX-- ONLY TELET. However, this goal seems elusive! I have had great success via NetTamer on my laptop-- with the SAME copy of NetTamer and the SAME PCMCIA modem (Noteworthy 14.4 xjack) I am trying on the LX. It works on the laptop-- on the LX, it dials out, connects, logs in, then FREEZES (I need to ctrl-alt-del to get out of it) when it sets up the nameserver's IP address. If anyone could help me with this NetTamer problem, it'd be much appreciated. I already e-mailed the nettamer people. ---------- I have also tried using the DOS PPPD/chat package (the one that is a port of the Linux PPPD and chat). I can get it to dial out, but the chat package is (as always) a bitch to configure; that, however, is not my problem. I can manually log in using COMTOOL, then ctrl-C out of it and run EPPPD.EXE. It loads into memory, resident at the 0x60 vector. I then try running: * NCSA Telnet's "TELBIN.EXE" (which crashes with a math error, and says "Cannot find command interpreter - COMMAND.COM not found". I then must reboot, obviously.) * NCSA Telnet's "TELPKT.EXE", which freezes the machine. No error, it just freezes. * Minuet, which tries gathering Network info and then does nothing. It does NOT freeze-- however, it also does not telnet, or do anything else useful. :P * IBM's old "MS-Kermit" Kermit program, which seems worthless. It supposedly has a telnet client built in, but hell if I can figure it out. I try the 'CONNECT' command, and help under that section of the program mentions several things about telnet; however, I cannot seem to telnet into twu.net!

Balance your checkbook with Quicken? Also use it to track your credit cards. Spend a few free minutes playing a Curtis Cameron game. You don't have to complete a game in one setting if you devote a Software Carousel session to it; just switch to it as you want. Use Secure Device to create a small encrypted logical drive.

I'm not sure about this.......... :(( This is the part about eBay that I don't like. :((( The purchaser has to send money in an irrevocable form like a cashier's check or money order, the seller cashes the check, and then supposedly the seller sends the product. The only aspect to all of this is that it would be hard to rip off more than a few people before the eBay controls catch up with the seller. Nevertheless, there is much more protection for the seller than for the buyer. I do know a couple buyers who were defrauded on eBay, but they had used PayPal and were eventually protected by the credit card company that was used with PayPal, but not by PayPal itself. eBay gives the buyer no protection - "let the buyer beware". Oh well, we'll keep hoping. I don't think that I will do this again, at least not with someone who has only 2 sales on eBay like this guy. One always hears stories like "I found it on eBay - good price", but I wonder what the fraud rate is. -insert end- nat ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Sat, 23 Mar 2002 23:12:34 -0800 Reply-To: hplxmail@YAHOO.COM Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: A Meshar Subject: Re: Need a Thaddeus 56K Modem Driver In-Reply-To: <5.1.0.14.2.20020322085132.00a86e30@pop.mail.yahoo.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed Thanks to William for a fast response.

One is a defective 95LX (mainboard OK, screen has with a loose contact, needs pressure to begin to work, but is otherwise OK, hinge defective, case defective). Only good as a spare part holder. The other one is a 200LX with 3 MB RAM (upgraded, original 1MB) in good condition, with only two little problems: The latch springs are broken, I have fixed that with a little piece of foam stuffed under the latch, and the screen has 4 missing pixel columns, which I have tried to fix, but was unable, because it was the first screen which I _tried_ to fix and I made a mistake... :-( now a few pins of one of the screen ICs are unusable. See pictures. The effect of the 4 missing columns is not _that_ bad, the LX is still well usable. For you list members, I also ship within Europe, not only to Germany, as the auction says.

I can't actually disagree with you but a lot of us remember that, while you were paying the high price for Compuserve (so did I) we were also using the not very well known internet. There was no WWW then. There wasn't anything you could pay for. But there was a lot of really good content provided by people who worked hard on their own time to put it there. It wasn't commercial content. You couldn't buy things on the internet. But there was good solid access to information. Now everybody thinks the internet is the WWW but all the real meat is still there. There are newsgroups (still the best information source on the internet), listserves like this one, email. There is gopher, a menu system that linked everything on the net like the WWW does except that it was just a text roadmap, not a lot of hype. There is archie that can find files anywhere they might exist on the internet so you can find what you're looking for. There are games like MUDs that are probably more elaborate than anything you'll find on the web or in a computer store. Not more flashy but far more intricate and feature filled. And all you need to access this stuff is an ascii terminal. Free stuff done by people who had no interest in making money was what built the internet. It truly brought people from all over the world together, person to person. Just like this listserve does. Anyone who wanted to could join a group or form their own group to create something new for the internet. And a LOT of people did. It was all created by the people using it. It's all still there but what will eventually kill it is the commercial success of the WWW. More and more controls will be needed to protect that and our access to the internet will be controled and reduced and confined, eventually, to the point that we won't be able to acces those things that nobody today is being told about anyway. I enjoy the commercial uses of the internet and it's happening and nothing will stop it. So there's no point in complaining about it. Except that one of the most beautiful things in human history is being turned into one of the most successful things. That's painful and lamentable.

I installed it today, configured my copy of WWW/LX 2.2 per Avi's message of December 19, 2001 and it works just great! The only difference in method is that I created the MochaPPP section and the MochaPPP_Script section in www.cfg by hand, and was able to get MochaPPP to install in \Program Files\MochaPPP by creating the empty directory before I ran Setup (for the second time - since it failed when the directory did not exist.)

Because comp gives stable state and the other player only make it unstable. If the first player give you the stable state 5 nubmers stay the same and you can substract just one from bigest number and wait the other player to make mistake... Trivial stable state is x,x,0,0,0 because if the other player makes it x-n,x,0,0,0 you make x-n,x-n,0,0,0 The other trivial stable state is x,y,x,y,0... If you want to play just rem all prints except 60,450 and 490 (there are few remed prints from debugging also...) As you will see stable state is when all columns of binary presentations of the 5 numbers has even numbers of 1's (test line shows it). There is no the end of program, just CtrlC...

Well, it seems you have done all the right things. I use a 192MB Sandisk CF card in my 200LX, so we know the card size is not a problem. There used to be some issue with the Master Boot Record on flash cards used in the LX. You may want to use FDISK100 to set up the card. FDISK100 is located in D:\bin on your 200KX.

Now somethig longer: First I soldered all 50 wires to CF card (uff) then I started to solder it to 200lx, but realized that it is really dangerous because mean time my soldering device became dead and I dindn't want to kill 200lx with a spare soldering device. So I took one my many Olivetti quaderno spare motherboards and unsoldered a PCMCIA slot from it. Then I disassembled a PCMCIA-CF card adaptor and connected this PCMCIA slot to it (soldering 2*68 wires - uff uff) Finally I had a PCMCIA to CF and PCMCIA adaptor. Now the test: CF card first modem last: no sucess. CF card was sometimes readable sometime 200 lx freezed Modem first CF card last: no sucess modem was detected by lxcic, after an isertion of CF card a CF card taken over a socket one (detected by LXCIC) but nothing was aceessible. Similar results with CF - SRAM combination and CF - FLASH card combination. I also tried LXCIC2 and DSLOT.SYS. LXCIC2 never detected a card in a socket 2 Conclusion: 2 cards cannot work in paralel in 200lx. It may need some additional hardware which is in ACCURITECH double slot adaprtor, or different connections of some signals. Please note that card detect 1 and 2 signals are according to what I have seen connected together and grounded in every card. BTW: any owner of accuritech doubleslot adaptor willing to look what is inside?;-) Radek I appologize for possible worse readability of this text.

Essentially, this is the only place where the access to PCMCIA slots differs. All else is parallell. I am getting a 700LX soon (tomorrow) , and will try to find out what the CE1 and CE2 of the second (Nokia Card) slot are connected to on the Hornet chip. It may be that there are CE for the second slot somewhere connected to official PCMCIA NC (not connected) pins on the first slot of a 200LX, and that these are rewired in the Accurite, but I guess that the Accurite uses address lines, as these use identical timing as CE lines.

Any info is greatly apprecaited. Thanks... I use a 48MB Sandisk CF card in my 100LX, so 32MB is not too large. However, there are some brands of CF cards that do not work as well as others with the 100LX. I don't know if that is the problem. Or, perhaps the CF card has to be set up with D:\BIN\FDISK100 and then formatted in the 100LX to work in the 100LX.

I still get plenty of spam in my regular email but that's from other sources. I'm more bothered by the spam in the newsgroups themselves. As for the long belabored messages, that's always been there. It's nothing new. Maybe you're in groups where that's become more common. The groups I frequent are mostly about programming and old computers and a couple concerned with using graphics programs. I also sometimes read some literary newgroups. These are as good as ever. Better in some ways. A lot of the people on them have been on them for years and have more to contribute. Alt.lang.asm is one of my favorites. There is a continual discussion of "proper" programming methods and how they're affected by the various tools. And sometimes it bogs down with everyone repeating the same things in different ways. But then it gets fresh again. There is also a LOT of help given to young programmers learning asm and I find that fun. Comp.lang.forth covers the same ground over and over a lot but with new approaches and there are always new topics and ideas. All in all I think this might be the most intelligent group of people I've ever encountered. (other than thos one, of course). My interest in forth is marginal but I've been reading and enjoying this group for years because of the quality and depth of a lot of the discussion. The sloppiest newsgroup on usenet is probably alt.folklore.computers. The discussions get silly. They drift off topic. Some get very lengthy. But I was a programmer for over 30 years and a lot of people on that group were programming years and even decades before I started and there are discussions of computer history that are just beautiful, very often by people who were there. I'd say that 60% or 70% of my time spent on the internet is in usenet.

A few years ago I bought a very old Mac at a garage sale. I know nothing about Macs. I went to a Mac newsgroup and asked if anyone knew how I could upgrade the OS since I couldn't find software that worked on the old OS I had. The computer had no terminal program so downloading a new OS wasn't one of the options. I got pretty much the same reaction you did. I don't care if a few jerks want to laugh at me but they wouldn't even talk about my question. So I went to a Mac IRC channel and again I got the same reaction. Even though I stayed polite they kicked me out and banned me from the channel. That exists. No question about it. But there are good newsgroups, too. Lots and lots of them.

Well no, not really. The adapter that was with it when I bought it has a nominal 9 V 400 mA, but is admittedly not genuine HP - I never saw one of those. The http://www.hplx.net/faq.power.html says: > I have an adapter that is 9V, 300mA, and another that is 12V, > 500mA, and both work fine. So I had a range of 9-12 to start with and as my 700 LXs use the Nokia charger which at a nominal 12 V is regulated to a constant 10.8 V I chose something near that on the lab supply. But you are probably right - I'll keep the lead and plug from the 9V supply and look round the spares box for one with better suited values.

For the time being both show the same behaviour which is consistent with what the faq led me to expect: Turning the supply down whnen charging will make them toggle charge on and off continuously at around 9.3 V. But neither is the screen affected nor the voltage reading in the bottom left corner. With charging off and in the config screen I can make them switch from adaptor to battery power and back by lowering votage slightly below and above 9.0 V. So the blackening of the screen and knocking voltage metering out of kilter (I presume the latter is the reason and the first the result of some automatic contrast adjustment) may be triggered by an adaptor with rather low voltage but it does seem to be a fault rather than a normal reaction. As long as I can avoid it I won't mind too much but it is a bit of a worry.

You found a way to format the card that I had forgotten about. To get the maximum amount of DOS memory on the 200LX, you can turn it into a pure DOS machine by stopping System Manager. This is more than just closing it and going to the Top Card screen. To terminate System Manager, close all your applications. Then press the "&... MORE" key to open Application Manager. Then press Menu and then the A key and then the T key. Read the warning screen and then press ENTER. This will make your 200LX a "pure" DOS machine. To restart System Manager, type 200 at the DOS prompt. Vic Roberts On Mon, 25 Mar 2002 11:17:38 EST, Harb Lill wrote: > Vic, > > I believe you put me right on target, though I did stumble a bit.

Being a terminal, it would have no real OS. Instead, it would work with any platform for which the open-source host software has been compiled (Windows, DOS, Mac, OS X, Linux etc. etc.) and to which a base station tranceiver has been attached. So, for example, you could dial in to your Mac at home and run the applications that are on that machine, then later dial into your office PC running Windows. Also, it would have no local file storage, because any changes would be made directly to files on the host machine. So, no need to synchronize your pocket machine with your desktop machine! It would have a greyscale screen that echoes what is displayed on the host machine's monitor. It would have a thumb-operable keyboard and some kind of pointing mechanism, any manipulation of which would be echoed to the host machine. Specifically, this device would be have a size and weight somewhere between a Palm and a 200LX. It would get at least 10 days of heavy use from commonly-available batteries, which could be recharged inside the unit overnight.

I was going to use it, along with some odd hardware laying around, to make a docking station, but never did follow through with the project since the simple serial cable worked just as well. I don't remember what I paid for the shell, but its been gathering dust for quite a while now. If you would like it, just send me your snail mail address in a private email and I'll send you mine in a reply. How does a $5 bill + postage sound? I would really like to see *someone* make good use of it. Cheers!

MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit I've been a vocal odd man out on the list several times in the past when the question of double speed came up and I would speak in favor of SINGLE speed. ...and then I didn't take my own adice. My old single speed is now my backup and I'm using a double speed as my primary LX. So, how do I like it? Was I wrong? (Were you right?) ..Maybe.. I must say I like the quicker sorts and packing within wwwlx. I do several email lists and a couple of newsgroups (1 VERY active) so sorting and repacking is something I end up doing often. However, I can't think of anything else that is REALLY GREAT about the extra speed. I can notice a few other things running faster but either not enough faster to rate as GREAT or they're tasks like backup that I tend to start and let run while I do something else. On the negative side I think I have noticed a bit of reduced battery life. (I use throw aways.) I haven't had it long enough to have a good feel for battery life yet though so final evaluations are still on hold. Another, more important negative, is the display. With the double speed it seems I can't make the contrast high enough without also making the display seem dark. I'm having to settle for semi-washed out but not too dark. It works but is less than GREAT. I'll continue using my 2X and refining my reaction to 2X speed. Maybe after a couple of months I'll try switching back to my 1X to see how the loss of speed will affect me. I'll let the list know if/when I try. My feeling now is it isn't worth it; I think I could switch back now without feeling as I lost something important. To be continued (in a few months)... Cheers...

I've never heard of this problem before, and none of the palmtops I've ever seen have had any difference in display quality with the 2x upgrade , except for the well-known problems that occur without the speed driver installed, which results in the screen being shifted two columns to the right and, on some models, becoming completely unreadable. But those problems only exist when the driver isn't running. ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Tue, 26 Mar 2002 02:27:39 +0000 Reply-To: Russel Brooks Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Russel Brooks Subject: Re: Sandisk 64Mb CF not recognized Comments: To: HiLill@AOL.COM MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Harb Lill wrote: > I just tried the CTL-ALT-DEL reboot, but alas, it had no affect.

However, with the continued government pressure and attempts to reform and regulate the hardware and software industries, readers should be informed and aware of these new laws which will no doubt impact all of us. Senator Hollings is attempting to regulate hardware and software development.

There is a mailing list discussing these issues here: http://lists.microshaft.org/mailman/listinfo/dmca_discuss ----- Forwarded message from Declan McCullagh ----- As a bonus, here's a section-by-section summary of the bill: http://www.wired.com/news/politics/0,1283,51275,00.html And a collection of info on the Consumer Broadband and Digital Television Promotion Act (CBDTPA): http://www.politechbot.com/docs/cbdtpa/ -Declan --- http://www.wired.com/news/politics/0,1283,51274,00.html Anti-Copy Bill Slams Coders By Declan McCullagh (declan@wired.com) 1:25 p.m. March 22, 2002 PST WASHINGTON -- America's programmers, engineers and sundry bit-heads have not yet figured out how much a new copyright bill will affect their livelihood. When they do, watch for an angry Million Geek March to storm Capitol Hill. A bill introduced this week by Sen. Fritz Hollings (D-South Carolina) would roil the electronics industry by forcibly embedding copy protection into all digital devices, from MP3 players to cell phones, fax machines, digital cameras and personal computers. But the Consumer Broadband and Digital Television Promotion Act (CBDTPA) would also wreak havoc on programmers and software companies -- both those distributing code for free and those selling it. No more than two years and seven months after the bill becomes law, the only code programmers and software firms will be able to distribute must have embedded copy-protection schemes approved by the federal government. To put this in perspective: The CBDTPA would, if enacted in its current form, have the electrifying effect on computer professionals that the Supreme Court's decision in Bush v. Gore did to some Democratic Party members. Legal experts said on Friday that the CBDTPA regulates nearly any program, in source or object code, that runs on a PC or anything else with a microprocessor. That's not just Windows media players and their brethren, as you might expect. The CBDTPA's sweeping definition of "any hardware or software" includes word processors, spreadsheets, operating systems, compilers, programming languages -- all the way down to humble Unix utilities like "cp" and "cat." "The definition will cover just about anything that runs on your computer -- except maybe the clock," said Tom Bell, a professor at Chapman University School of Law who teaches intellectual property law.

That would be cool, indeed. I know where you are coming from, Bruce. :-) I used to run a one line BBS long ago and I used to be able to do that from any computer with a modem and terminal program with doorway mode. It worked great when I had a DOS program running in a full screen on my home computer. I requires a dedicated phone line only for that computer. It did not work when my computer was running something in a normal Window, though. I did figure out a way to reboot my computer at home from a remote terminal if it was not running DOS or a DOS program in a full screen window at the time. (My home computer was setup to reboot to a full screen DOS window, where I could launch any DOS program I wanted to run on my home computer.) Unfortunately, to access and use a Windows program in a window remotely on a home computer requires much more than just a simple terminal program. Also, I'm afraid that a wireless unit would require far too much energy to run for 10 days like that on a single charge. Even for one using a modem and phone line, that would be a rather tall order to fill. I would have a great time with a wireless hand held plain terminal that could be operated for 10 days on a single charge. For that kind of access, I would gladly find, install and use only DOS programs on an old home PC dedicated as a host for that very purpose. I already have a DOS program that competes pretty well with almost all of the Windows programs I use. Cheers!

Some screens are simply worse than others, mainly in contrast. Maybe swapping the screens (ir the motherboards, that's easier) is the thing you need in order to combine the good screen with the fast motherboard. Another thing you could try: Mack's double speed driver allows adjusting the refresh rate with a hotkey. Try to switch throught the rates, maybe you find one which lets you adjust the contrast better. > To be continued (in a few months)... I'm curious!

To better understand what I'd like to see in a pocket wireless terminal, think of a 200LX with a built-in cellular modem and higher resolution display, running something like PC Anywhere or Timbuktu to control a desktop host.

I've had four 200LXs; two were new SS, one was new DS, and one was a used DS. One of the new SS units had a noticeably sharper display than the other three. I had it upgraded to 32M and DS by Times2Tech and did not notice any change in the display. After upgrade it was still better looking. By better, I mean it had higher contrast. The other three are all pretty comparable. Unfortunately, the one with the best display is the one I lost in Boston last year. :( -- Ted Heise West Lafayette, IN, USA ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Tue, 26 Mar 2002 22:39:41 +0100 Reply-To: Axel-Berger@NexGo.De Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Axel Berger Subject: Re: Is 2X worth it?

Daniel & others, My DS LX is a 2M LX I purchased used from a post on this list from Floyd Smithberg when he decided to give up the LX because of his eyes. While I tested it to be sure it was Ok I never really used it before sending it in (many months later) for the 32M + DS upgrade. To start with I don't think the display was as good as my other LXs. I don't think the DS upgrade helped it any either but since I have little experience with this unit before the upgrade I am probably blaming the upgrade far too much; expecially since so many others have DS units with good displays. So... ignore my display comments but the rest of what I posted still stands. It'll be interesting to see if I become as fanatical as the rest of you DS owners over time. I'll try playing with Mack's driver keystroke options and I've also downloaded Stefan's DSPEED drive to try it too. Cheers...

The Internet was never "free". It just seemed that way to the small group of us that had access at no cost to us. The Internet was initially designed to connect government, university and industrial research labs. Almost every person associated with one of these organizations had "free" access but the Internet backbone was paid for by the US Government and each university and industrial lab had to pay for their own connection. So, our "free" use was being subsidized by our government, university or employer. There are few things of value in this world that are totally free.

I realize that. I did have free access a long time ago before I even knew there was an internet, thanks to my room-mate's brother. I didnt know what it was. It was just a lot of email and newsgroups on an Amdahl in Canada. The university always posted the bill as I signed off but I never had to pay for it. It was usually in the hundreds of dollars. Ever since that I've had access that I paid for. I was referring to things on the internet being free. I paid to get on but that was it. There was no way to spend money on the internet. At least I didn't know of any. It was a big wide open world full of things to do and things to learn. There weren't many fences. I was free to roam. Maybe you like it better when everybody pays his way. I like that too, in principle. But I remember how nice the internet used to be. It's more important now but not nearly as nice. I kept a shell account for a few years after I got my first SLIP account. But the graphics and the color and the mouse lured me away. Nobody to blame but me. It's the way things go and I went with it. By the time they shut down the shell server at my ISP I wasn't using it that much anyway.

One reason seems to be that too many newbies have been led to think of "the internet" as a huge anonymous machine spewing out answers insead of a huge bunch of individual people quite willing to help if you ask nicely. The second is that with the advent of colour all notions of netiquette have gone down the drain. In sci.energy, which used to be very worthwhile and sometimes still can be, two thirds of all posts show me a full screen - or several down - of all quote with no content. I have mostly given up scrolling down, although sometimes what follws might be worth reading. It goes against the grain, but if people insist on full untrimmed quoting (including the quotes included, which include ...) then (and only then) top posting is the lesser evil. MausNet, my old-style BBS network and gateway to usenet (this way I can at least use a decent reader) used to be different, but by now there is a huge brain drain and dieing of boxes and the chances of actually finding someone knowing more about the questions I have than myself are getting lower every day.

It's more important now but not nearly as nice. [snip] I think we both agree that it is reasonable for us to each pay for basic access to the Internet. As for the types of services available on the Internet, I would argue that much of the free and creative stuff we both remember is still there. It may not be as visible due to all the commercial activity, but creative people are still writing and posting free or low cost software and the newsgroups are all still free. The fact that newsgroups have become populated by too many thoughtless people is, I believe, due more to the huge increase in the number of people on the Inet then to commercial activity.

I don't know why your Datacomm scripts do not work, but the old DOS version of Kermit runs well on the 95LX, 100LX and 200LX. I am referring to the Kermit terminal emulation and file transfer program, not just to the Kermit file transfer protocol that is built into many other COMM programs. Kermit used to be freeware produced by Columbia University. In the old 95LX days I posted a version of Kermit 2.2 on the HPHAND forum on Compuserve. It was so small it ran well on my original 512KB 95LX. It has a great and configurable VT100 terminal emulator and good scripting. I then moved on to Kermit 3.1 for my 100LX because the scripting was a bit easier to use. If you can't find Kermit 2.2 or Kermit 3.1 on SUPER or elsewhere, contact me at VicRoberts@earthlink.net and I will send you copies of each.

On alt.lang.asm they sometimes try to keep it general and not centered around the x86 cpu but for the most part the people there are x86 programmers and examples are usually given in x86 code. The difference is small. There are some long winded discussions about the "proper" way to code and the proper way to organize a program. I usually enjoy these for a while and then ignore them when they get repetitive. A lot of the discussion, on both groups, is about how to get some particular thing done. Randy Hyde is on both groups and his no longer so new HLA assembler (High Level Assembler) becomes a topic from time to time and that gets interesting. It's not just the usual "how much should an assembler do for you" discussion but that's usually it's starting point. What keeps both groups interesting is the knowlegable people that frequent it. A few jerks participate now and then and sometimes one is so loquacious that I'll stop reading till he goes away. But not usually. It's normally a pretty polite group. Not as polite as this list, but then not many lists are this polite either. I do follow both, but not all the time. I'll read one or the other for a while and then drift away and then come back and follow them again. The only groups I read every day are the Tandy group (I have some model 100/102/200s) and and the HP48 group and most of the time, comp.lang.forth and comp.os.cpm. All in all I probably read the asm groups about half the time. Comp.os.msdos.programmer and alt.msdos.programmer are also pretty good sometimes. I don't follow them but I read them and get involved in a thread or two sometimes. Every couple of weeks I'll read comp.graphics.algorithms, which is often over my head since my math is limited, but I learn a lot every time.

While the CDDTPA will have a pretty big effect on the net, that's not really what it's about. This is about every computer, connected or not. It's about DVD players and, if they're computer controlled, cars and washing machines. And it's about programmers. I sure hope the EFF gets involved in this but if they're the only ones or even the main ones, we're in trouble. This is a lot bigger problem than that. The whole electronics industry and everyone who uses electronics should get involved in this. I do agree this isn't a forum for political issues and discussing it here won't accomplish much. But I think some small discussion of it from time to time to keep everyone aware of it is probably worthwhile. This law will definitely affect 200lx users. I hope others agree. Others, do you agree?

I have 3 200LXs and a 100lx and 2 95LXs and I used to have another 95lx which my nephew now has. None are DS or modified in any way. Each has a different looking screen. I have green and brown, as you do. The 100lx color tends more toward gold. It has the best contrast. But the best of all was the 95lx that my nephew now has. It has a beautiful bright golden screen with great contrast. One of mine has little enough contrast that I prefer not to use it except in very good light. It was my first 200lx. I finally got tired of the screen and bought another one. The third one was just a good deal I found in a pawn shop. ($95 for a good as new 2 meg 6 years ago).

The good stuff is still there and I still use it. But it's days are numbered. So are mine so I guess that's ok. :) I do think the huge increase in the number of people in the net and commercial activity go hand in hand. They're the same thing. More people makes commerce possible and potentially profitable and commerce draws more people. Change happens. This is the way of the world. I'm not complaining. I don't argue with thunderstorms, either. But it saddens me to see some of the changes. It saddened me when the high winds in a thunderstorm blew down the shed in my back yard last summer.

At a time when the general population could not get private internet access from the island of Oahu Hawaii, a group of us pulled together and eventually found access to the internet through the University of Hawaii's free online library system. We found a way to tunnel through the endless maze of menus within UH Carl system and then on to most of the nation's freenets from where we could do almost anything and access almost anything in text mode... all from a little island in the middle of the Pacific. It left all of us in awe! We were never able to download anything with Kermit though that connection, though. I think it had something to do with a marginal 7 bit connection somewhere down the line. That didn't stop us from doing massive screen captures from various newsgroups and other interesting places. ;-) I used to post my screen captures on my BBS for all to check out. I paid for only one thing that I found while online at that time, and that was a transcript for a specific television show. I don't know if that was located in the UH's local library or somewhere else on the internet, though. Later, when a lucky few actually got more direct (although long distance) access to the internet, I setup a multi-user soup reader on my BBS and regularly got copies of current soup packets from friends. That allowed anyone on the island with the simple terminal program "Banana Com" (with doorway mode) could remotely use their account on that soup reader and a small amount of tightly controlled storage space on my hard drive to follow a small select group of newsgroups. As a feeble attempt to relate this thread back to the HP200LX, if I had known about the HP200LX back then, I would have been able to access all of that from a HP200LX. Sorry. I couldn't help jumping into this thread one last time. This string just brings back such good memories! :-) Cheers!

I like these systems where the provider offer a basic service for free but if you want more, you have to pay. So they win because they reach a lot of people, and we win because we can have a lot of small services for free. In that case it is not the government whi pays, but these people who want to use the advanced services. Typical example is my email provider GMX. The basic services they offer for free are more than enough for me. Okay, no large attachments accepted, but for that purpose I have another mailnox at a provider where I PAY for the service (and email is only a secondary service of them, main service is the DSL access and web hosting). Of course these free basic services are all on a best-effort basis, no guaranteed services. But usually it works.

The other pins on the Nokia card slot are not matched with pins on the PCMCIA 1 slot, except ground. So this appears a dead end. So what is possible: a) Assuming that the LX's use word access on all PCMCIA cards - Mux A0, CE1 and CE2 s.t. A0=0 asserts CE1,2 on the first slot, A0=1 asserts CE1,2 on the second slot, and link a driver accordingly. You need to handle requests to both PCMCIA socket 1 and PCMCIA socket 2 b) Abuse (as previously hinted) A24 and E25 as CE1 and CE2 for a second card. This means thou canst not use linear memory cards over 16MB in the first slot... ( or, not use more than 16MB linear). Use a small driver which, when requesting a slot 2 access, raises A25 and A25 as well. You only need to catch request to PCMCIA socket 2.

(and the long quote. But the message is so old I thought it should be repeated.) I certainly do not mind. In fact, the situation is worse than indicated in my note below. I can state from first hand experience that if you insert NiCad batteries backwards into a 95LX (easy to do because of the non-standard layout of the spring contacts with respect to the positive battery terminals) you will burn out the reverse battery protection circuit. One weekend morning many years ago I had smoke pouring out of my 95LX when I did just that. NiCad and NiMH batteries have lower internal resistance than alkaline batteries. If short circuited they will provide higher current than an alkaline, even though their open circuit voltage is lower. The reverse battery protection circuit in the 95LX is not designed to withstand this higher current.

MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Hi friends, good news about the EMI problem ( http://www.daniel-hertrich.de/emi ) I have disassembled an Omnigo 700LX and really found another IR receiver design in there! So HP was aware of the EMI problem, too, and solved it: They used an IR transceiver chip instead of the IR LED and the photo diode combined with the external circuit. AND: They shielded all the stuff with metal. The transceiver chip looks like the HP HSDL1001, but I am not sure about this. See http://www.daniel-hertrich.de/700lx Another new aspect is that a German LX user (not on this list (yet)) has sent me a _very_detailled_ description of how he interprets the 200LX IR receiver circuit, and how he would try to solve the problem. I will try it with his suggestions. Maybe this weekend, maybe later. But be sure that I'll report the results! Other thoughts about the EMI problem: I don't think we should invest too much time and effort, because actually the EMI problem is only relevant to Siemens phone users. Ericsson and Nokia phones have stronger IR ports which lets us put them in more distance from the HPLX's IR port, so the phones cannot cause EMI anymore. But if a solution can easily be done, as the suggestions of that LX user seem to show, we should of course make it perfect and offer the solution on the web. The 700LX solution is not easily applyable to the 200LX. I have tried a similar thing (using a Temic TFDS6500 transceiver chip) some time ago, and it failed. But of course it _may_ also be possible with a huge amount of effort. I definitely won't do that, though.

Trying to work out what they're talking about does burn the carbon out of the old cylinders at times. I've even worked up enough nerve to post there. Great way to look like a fool. Every once in a while they come out with a real gem. Though my programming has fallen off of late, it's still good to be familar with the problem solving techniques. You've pointed out some groups that might be worth a look. Thanks. And the news server I get posts from seems to only get about half of the posts. That can make getting sense out of a thread problematic. This group (HPLX) has a better mix of interests than most anything else on average, and it's varied enough to wade through the extraneous posts. So I guess it has a good standard deviation as well as a good average.

The only differnce I see between CF and Flash card is different voltage used /5 - 12V/ which means different power supply of 200lx is used.

In order to take it step by step I am concentrating on connecting the two using Andreas Garzottos IR.EXE, to see if I can establish a connection and perhaps transfer for instance a vcard. My LX is a double speed 200LX. According to the documentation of the IR.EXE program an appropriate baud rate should be 38400, but if I try that nothing at all works. So I set the IR.CFG file to [oget] Mode=4 Baud=19200 I make sure the infrared port in the T39 is set to "ON". I tell my T39 to send my own business card via infrared. I then start the IR.EXE program on the LX with the following command line: ir oget > vcard.vcf The IR program replies: IR/LX 0.2 by A. Garzotto, Sep, 1999 Opening IrDA for OBEX receive... Talking with "T39"... IrDA connection established (9600 baud). Closing IrDA connection... So on the LX it seems like everything has worked (although I don't understand why it reports 9600 baud), but the T39 display says: Connecting... then after 2 seconds: Connection failed then No device found Search again ? The vcard.vcf file that has been created in the LX is empty. I know that the LX sees "something", because if I remove the T39 from the line of sight it never gets past the "Opening IrDA for OBEX receive..." message. Am I missing something obvious here ? What am I supposed to see if this works. Can the infrared port be disabled in the LX ? On the other hand as described above the LX seems to see the T39 alright, so that's probably not the problem. Is there a handshake problem ? Is this setup very sensitive to the relative position of the devices ? I have tried holding them up almost against each other (obviously with the IR ports facing each other), I have tried placing them with a distance of 30 cm, and I have tried anything in between. I know that some people use this all the time, so if somebody could let me know if this is supposed to work "out of the box", or I need to tweak some settings somewhere, I would appreciate it. ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Thu, 28 Mar 2002 17:52:25 +0100 Reply-To: Lillebjorn Nilsen Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Lillebjorn Nilsen Subject: FLUFF: Netscape 2.11 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable For most of my communication needs I use my trusty 200LX.

When I wanted to cancel my account they asked me if I wanted to continue the accout on a by-call basis and since that was exactly what I needed I agreed. Now I really pay nothing, except when I'm travelling and using their service (which is only once for a few weeks per year). Maybe somply call them, say you want to cancel your account, and if they want to go on to delete your data, quickly say you have reconsidered and now don't want to cancel it anymore. ;-) Then ask directly for the by-call service. > Can someone provide details on this?

The surcharges are horrendous though. I live in Asia, and when I travelled, the surcharges can come to more than US$1 per minute. Then they started to cut down the network. So I unsubscribed. Compuserve will most probably keep the surcharges on non-CIS networks since they have to pay access fees. And they probably make a bundle on the mark up.

MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Hi everyone, Nigel R from sunny South Africa again! I came across the Siemens IC35 device awhile back and wondered if it could be as useful as my 95LX but physically smaller... I even hunted down a SDK pack and lots of other related info (including a PC based emulator) but seems the device never became popular(?). I may have a chance to acquire a new unit at a low price now that locally there is (or would seem that way) no support or active promotion. Does anyone have any experience or comments relating to the IC35 and if there would be any value in interfacing to the HP palm? The physical size of the unit is certainly more practical than many other PDA's but applications seem to be limited...

Did you always wait for 2-3 seconds after power on before measuring the voltage? At least the Sundisk cards should power down by themselves after some seconds (my 96 MB CF card does). LXCIC/S can also tell you, if your card powered down. Access the card and call immediately LXCIC/S. It will tell you "Card powered". Then wait for 2 seconds and call LXCIC/S again. My Sundisk CF now reports "Card power down". Indeed you have to run LXCIC from your C: drive and your path should have no A: references, otherwise loading LXCIC from the card or searching the card would always power it on.

I used the IC35 for a few days, and I can only say, that it is IMO a good organizer and SMS keyboard for a Siemens phone. AFAIK it also has an email client, so it may be good for email either. But the keyboard is really crap, compared to the HP palmtops, and the lacking DOS compatibility makes it far less flexible. So I sold mine again.

When I first saw it, I thought is was a kind of chemical reaction of the case plastic with something else, until I looked from a bigger distance and saw it is a world map. What you _also_ have on the case plastic are these little stars (left of the left hinge, for example). Mine is a SG60... unit, that seems to mean that mine is really an early machine (beginning of 1996) and only three weeks later they produced them without this decoration. How about other 700LX owners? Do you have this world map on the keyboard frame? What are the serial numbers of your machines? > Second question: I have a Nokia Infrared link JLP-1.

I don't know. I have never seen a Nokia datacard before I bought and npened this 700LX. But another thing which was interesting about my 700LX Nokia data card is that it seems to be made from plastic, nut fro mmetal, as PCMCIA card are usually made. Maybe this is a special edition for the 700LX. But then it is strange that they left the conector. They could have removed it, because it's not needed in the 700LX.

No. The voltage the resistor would reduce the 24V by would vary depending on the currect the LX needs (Ohm's law). You need a voltage regulator, or simply buy another AC adapter.

Maybe this is a special edition for the 700LX. Mine is made out of plastic, too.

My DSL connection is by Verizon, but I connect to a local ISP. In short, it is not only possible, but great! I bought a LinkSys 4 port "router" (~$80) to connect the LAN to the DSL modem. On the 200LX I use the Accton Ethernet Drivers (by Yoichiro UENO) from SUPER, and the LXTCP suite of apps. With this setup I can run ssh, telnet, pop, nntp, and smtp directly from my palmtop, but I usually just use lxtelnet to log on to my Linux box, and then work from there. If you decide to try something similar, I'd be glad to help answer questions as best I can. -- Ted Heise West Lafayette, IN, USA ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Fri, 29 Mar 2002 19:48:05 +0100 Reply-To: Axel-Berger@NexGo.De Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Axel Berger Subject: Re: using the 200LX to write and get email with a Verizon ADSLconnection MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit You will always be able to plug in a modem where the phones go.

You cannot directly connect the 200LX via DSL to an ISP, because there is no PPPOE (PPP over Ethernet) software available for the 200LX. However, there are several other ways: 1. If you have an Ethernet card for the palmtop, you can buy a DSL router, which lets you connect whatever computer you like via Ethernet to the DSL line. The router does all the PPPOE stuff and to the machines it looks like an Ethernet connection. 2. (cheaper): You can use your desktop computer as the router. This means the desktop computer must be running everytime you want to connect the 200LX to DSL. Then simply connect the palmtop via serial cable to the desktop. If you run Windows, MochaPPP does the routing job, and if you run Linux, PPPD and IP masquerading / forwarding does all you need (see http://www.daniel-hertrich.de/internet_sharing ). 3. Of course you can still use a modem to connect the 200LX via analogue phone line to the ISP. I don't know the details of the DSL service you plan to use, but usually you still have the base band phone line available for normal phone calls, so you can use a modem, too. If they convert your analogue phone line into an ISDN line, you would need a special ISDN-analogue adapter to connect a modem....

I think this was what the original question was about, actually being able to access email from anywhere, not just over the DSL line. Yes, you can use a modem over the same line as DSL, but the problem with some ISP's is that you no longer have dialup access if you go with DSL. With my previous ISP, I was allowed 10 hours dialup a month. With some, dialup is available, but at an added cost.

I rejected the design by software because the circuit should be suitable for realtime and it should work outside of a computer. The circuit was not built by me, only simulated (using the simulation software eletronic workbench, a mixed mode simulation software based on a Spice-core). So, the circuit will probably work, but it's not guaranteed. Therefore, no printed circuit board exists (so far), it might be available later.

If the LX always drew a constant current then it is possible to just use a resistor (although you might have trouble finding one of the necessary calculated ohms). Since the LX does not pull a constant current, any resistor will drop a varying amount of voltage which means the LX would see the remaining varying amount of voltage. If the voltage swings were too great you could exceed safe levels for the LX. A good AC adapter is CHEAP insurance.

We got them from a company that is probably going out of business. I do not believe HP will introduce a replacement any time soon. MobilePlanet sells the 720 for $899. We will sell them for $775. We've already pre-sold 30 to one customer, and we don't expect them to last very long. If you wish to trade in HP 100LX, 200LX, or 1000CX for the HP 720, email wayne@thaddeus.com and he will give you an extra $50 credit over what we would normally pay.

And, if I can remember back that far, that is also what I did for Food analyst and why I had some of those peculiar directory/subdir structures due to the hard coded paths in the original versions. If I recall, though, the dictionary has some kind of "execute in place" which makes it impossible to merely copy the files even tweaking the innards of the programs to look for files on other than the hardcoded card. ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Sat, 30 Mar 2002 08:49:28 +0100 Reply-To: Yves Leurquin Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Yves Leurquin Subject: MindMap/LX Crash MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hi, I am now using MM/LX extensively to take meeting notes on the fly.

Aside from 200.EXE and associated applications, the only other programs in memory are an old Buddy TSR (version 2.1a), ZANSI.SYS, KBUF128.SYS (although I've tried unloading these in case there are interferences---no luck). There are also some drivers associated with the 64MB RAM upgrade and the doublespeed upgrade. I've not removed these from memory for hopefully obvious reasons. Could the problem be here, though? With the utility below installed at either COM1 or COM2 as documented (I've tried both, but the driver complains when I attempt to use it with COM2), I'm trying to print using the 200LX IR port to an HP LaserJet 6MP and having no luck in spite of trying many solutions. I've seen several posts in the archives of this list on doing the same, but none shed any light (no pun intended) on my dilemma. What I have tried and the results: I've tried printing to the same printer using an IrDA laptop and get success, so I know the printer and its IR port work. I've tried connecting two 200LX machines together using their IR ports and get success, so I know that the IR hardware and software on both 200LX's is working. Both of these 200LX's have the 64MB and the doublespeed upgrades. Could the problem be associated with timing and the communications over the serial ports? I thought that the doublespeed driver corrected for this... Redundant check of the IR port of the 200LX using a standard video camera indicates light being emitted from the IR port, so I know with extra certainty that the IR port on the 200LX is working (thanks to Peter W. Borders on this list for this idea). Using the JETUTIL.EXE utility included with the software below, I get a message indicating that the driver is enabled. Using the 200LX setup utility, I've configured the printer (F3) to use each of the IR port, the COM1 port, and the COM2 port (I'm guessing that the JetEye driver would like this setting to be COM1 and for the driver to be installed at COM1, but that is not clear to me from the driver docs) for Interface, the HP LaserJet printer driver, and various baud rates (from 300 up to 19200). With the above settings in the 200LX setup utility, I tried printing to the LaserJet 6MP from the MEMO application. No success, but I can see light being emitted from the 200LX IR port if I observe with the video camera. With the same characteristics in the 200LX setup utility, I've tried printing to the 6MP from the Lotus123 application and get no success, although I do see light being emitted. So, I'm at my wit's end. Does anyone have this working? If so, any thoughts on what I'm doing wrong? If you by chance have this driver working on your 200LX and haven't a clue as to what I'm doing wrong, would you mind sending me the details of your 200LX setup utility (for printing, ie. baud rate, interface, printer driver), the printer setup characteristics from Lotus123 (by touching "/PP" and reading the information following the word, "Interface"), the relevant lines from your CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT, and any other details you think might be helpful? I'll be forever grateful. FWIW, I seem to have discovered that immediately after a reboot (with printer settings in the 200LX setup utility as above), an attempt to print from MEMO does generate light at the IR port. However, if I start FILER, then switch back to MEMO and attempt the exact same print operation (no other changes to any aspect of the 200LX), the same print operation generates NO light at the IR port. If I then switch back to the FILER and quit the FILER, then try to print, I still get no light generated at the IR port. It seems that starting the FILER operates a toggle switch that only toggles in one direction (to turn the IR light from enabled to disabled). I halfway expect this sort of behavior with Buddy 2.1a loaded (there is a handy feature to turn off the comm ports with the touch of the + or - keys), but I get the same behavior with or without Buddy loaded. Any idea what's going on here? Does FILER run the d:\bin\serctl command or something? Sorry for such a long post, but I figured more detail is better than less.

MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT Dear all, Today my already battered 200LX/2MB suffered a fall from about 5ft (1.5m). It was in closed position and landed flat on a a stack of 70 sheets of paper on the floor, then came to rest lying upside down. The battery compartment door and the 2 AA NiCads were ejected, but the PCMCIA card remained in place. The long slope (wedge), which is situated between top of keyboard and the screen rod, was separated from the rod about half of its lenght. The LX now seems to be dead, the only sign I got was two short beeps when I plugged in the wall adapter and even this did not repeat. I managed to put the screen rod into alignment with the base unit by pressing firmly, but it did not help. I took the machine apart, but I cannot see anything suspicious. Maybe the keyboard is damaged (including the ON key) or the screen is malfunctioning? I did not yet open these, because I assume the cover plastic sheet may not stick again after a removal. What would you recommend trying, in order to revive this 200LX? I have a basic handheld electric multimeter, a 50W soldering station with digital temperature dial and the set of tooling / accessories, commonly found in a home. Thank you in advance, Sincerely: Tamas Feher. PS: I feel the LX case designers should have opted for a latch mechanism with two hooks, one in both corners. The single centre latch does not seem to really hold the two shells together and allows for deformation / twisting of the whole palmtop. ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Sat, 30 Mar 2002 11:12:18 -0600 Reply-To: Hal Goldstein Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Hal Goldstein Subject: Re: Databases for the Database Repository Comments: To: Daniel Hertrich MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain Hi Daniel, Sorry for not responding.

Do you speak of pixel lines, filled from left to right and from top to bottom slowly with obviously random pixels? I get this behaviour if I press keys too fast or in a non-functional order (menu - e - o for example, maybe only when I press menu twice or so... I haven't found the real reason yet). I'm running MM/LX 2.0 under Software Carousel, with SC swapping to EMS.

Are you using Accis or Datacomm? I don't use Accis and don't use scripts with Datacomm but still use Tapcis for HMI access and believe I can long in manually with Datacomm. (I can probably get you the Tapcis login script.) You do remember that the login must be done with 7-bit odd parity I believe. Have you tried your new password with CIS software or with any Web browser at www.compuserve.com? If you have never logged in with your new password it is possible that you mistyped it when you changed it or the Caps Lock key was on.

If you use the the windows dialer, just for once doing it their way, and it still doesn't work, the helpline might understand your questions. Another thing that should work is datacomm: use compuserve.dcf from ROM and the provided script. It not not in ROM as I misremebered so I think I typed it from the handbook.

But you were talking about fooling around with a regulated variable output power supply and using 10.5 volts and having some troubles. I was trying to suggest that you use the nominal spec. I also understand that a 10.5 volt supply would most likely work fine. But at the lower voltage (than the nominal 12 volts), the power supply conversion circuits inside the palmtop have to draw more current at that lower voltage and could therefore run hotter. Also, HP's own AC power adapter puts out 12 volts, so I read that as an indication that 12 volts is the best to give to the 100/200LX. I have been using HP's regulated 12 volt adapters for many years - since my first 100LX one month after they were introduced - and have never had a problem.

All you need is lxcic and lxen2216, same with an accton card, see super and lxeth.hplx.net. I put them both in a directory on my command path. that way I can use them from both my lxtcp setup and www/lx. If they're not on your path you could always invoke them with full path. No real magic.
