Just to clear things up, this offer was for Thinkpads purchased before
15 Jan 1996. A flyer was included in the box detailing how to fax/mail
the form in to receive your free copy of the Smartsuite CD.

A month after having ordered 6 TPs, I read in a newspaper a TP ad where they
promised RayBans for purchases made before a certain date. I got my six
pairs of RayBans w/o any problems.
There is nothing to forgive you, try it!

Message-Id: <2.2.32.19960325111011.0086b904@denver.ssds.com>
Greetings,
When I hot swap the battery under Windows95 on my TP755CE, the
battery level indicators indicate the battery state of the battery that was
removed, not the new battery. However, the system will still continue to
work, and the low battery alerts (anoying sound, blinking battery light)
indicate when the new battery is about to die. Is there something that
needs to be done to get the system to re-interigate the new battery, or is
this a known bug.
Regards,
-+Chris

Subject: Solaris x86 (on a TP 755CX)
Message-Id: <199603251527.IAA29776@cobra.opt-sci.Arizona.EDU>
Anyone managed to configure x86 to work transparently in
2 modes (in a Dock 2 with ethernet and standalone without
ethernet but using a PCMCIA modem for PPP)?
I would be interested in anyone's experience and in asking
questions of someone who is more of an expert than I. I
have had x86 loaded for about 2 weeks (used little).
(Have much more experience with Solaris 2.X on SPARC!)
(755CX w/ 40 MB RAM, 1.2 GB disk, Solaris x86 2.5 with du1
and 800x600 256 color SVGA display patch, OpenWin patches,
use NIS on local subnet - not on notebook as it hangs, ...
Have Warp/Warp connect on another 1.2 and on SCSI in dock
but need to run some fortran stuff in the field which is
currently in Sun SPARC fortran and figured a port to x86
would be easier than getting and learning OS/2 Fortran, etc).
Thanks,
Stu

hi
i was directed to this mailing list to get an answer to this question:
i've got a thinkpad 755c with 20MB ram and a 540 MB harddrive.
i'd like to put linux on the machine. I've got the "bare" boot disk and
"color" root disk for linux 3.0.0. i can get the machine to boot up from
the floppy usint the ramdisk floppy=thinkpad option, but when i run fdisk
to partition the rest of the drive for linux and swap, the fdisk program
complains that the number of cylinders is 1047 which is larger than 1024.
printing the partion table lists the drive as
16 heads, 63 sectors, and 1047 cylinders...i don't know if this is true and
I can't find this information using dos's fdisk..
do you know the correct geometry for this drive and if there's any other
"unique" things i need to know to get linux and Xfree86 up and running?
thank you
-_- duane

In the Linux distribution directory somewhere, there's a DOS program
called dparam.com. Find it and give it a shot. It should give you
the parameters your BIOS is remapping the hard drive to.

Subject: need help with W95/LPT1
Message-Id: <3156D2F0.2C63@cadvision.com>
I tried something in that I found in the Compuserve Canon forum - I changed
the LPT1
device to "de-select" automatic settings in the resources tab in my control
panel. This
unfortunately caused major problems. i reversed what I did and lost my LPT1
port completely. I tried re-installing new hardware and this did not work.
I then
tried reinstalling W95 (by running setup.exe off disk A) but my system hangs.
I am
using a thinkpad 360c laptop.
I would call IBM Helpline but they usually wash their hands of any W95
problems.
Does anybody know what I can do to get my LPT1 port back up and running?
Thanks in advance
