I have no problems with the IBM Ethernet II Credit Card Adapter. It retails
for about $200(US) but can be had for a lot less if you shop around.

Hello,
I'm looking for a pcmcia-ethernetcard for a tp 755cx (24MB,500GB),
which should work with OS/2 and Linux.
Who knows which work/don't work/are preferable?
Thanks in advance!

Given the recent spate of pranks involving people being signed up for
mailing lists against their will (Rush Limbaugh and Emmanuel
Goldstein were both victims with the result being 300+ messages an
hour) I think we should steal a good idea another list I'm one uses
Namely adding to the header:
X-Comment: TO UNSUBSCRIBE: email "unsub poly" to listserv@lupine.org
Obviously we should tailor it to let people know how to unsub from
OUR list, but you get the idea. If you're not familiar with the way
SMTP handles headers, you don't see this unless you make a specific
effort to do so - it's not displayed normally.
While many people won't think to look there, it makes sure the
information is available to those in the know.
Just a suggestion.

I'm considering a cdrom drive with an IDE pcmcia connection for my
ThinkPad. Can someone comment on how the speed would compare to an
arrangement using a SCSI pcmcia adapter, say the Adaptec 1460?
Thanks,

Subject: Zenith Z-player
Message-Id: <Pine.A32.3.91.960327170913.30814C-100000@red.weeg.uiowa.edu>
Hello,
I recently bought a Z-Player for my TP701 (well, the price was good).
After adding a couple of switches to the pcmcia drivers, I can see the
cdrom under DOS and windows. Trouble is, I can't stop the audio portion
of the Z-player from interfering with the Thinkpad's built in audio
(sounds won't play when the Z-player is plugged in). I could disable the
TP audio, but if I did that I'd only have sound when the Z-player was
attached (wouldn't I?).
Does anyone know of a way to keep the TP audio and just use the CD-ROM
portion of the z-player? I asked IBM and Zenith but they didn't know if
it was possible.
TIA,
Michael

Message-Id: <199603280051.QAA29809@netcom9.netcom.com>
When I enter suspend mode on my 755cx under windows 95,
either by hitting alt-f4 or by selecting "suspend" in the start menu,
the screen blanks and a moment later the disk spins down as expected.
But much later--like minutes or hours--the disk starts spinning
again (with the screen still dark). This doesn't really seem
like suspend mode to me. Any advice? Thanks.
PS, I'm using w95 because of a project I'm doing for work...
the UI is slick but I'm still eager to switch back to Linux...

There was a problem with the listserver for the ibm-java lists so they now
have the list server append the following to every message posted to the
list
quote mode on .....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
To unsubscribe from this mailing list ( ibm-java-os2 ), please send a note
to
majordomo@hursley.ibm.com
with the following message in the body of the note
unsubscribe ibm-java-os2 <e-mail address>
quote mode off .....
This is quite painless since they do it automatically and it is impossible
to miss since it is an extra sig and not in the header.

Well, my IBM one works fine (Linux/DOS/Windoze, but I'd expect OS/2 would
be fine, considering it's IBM).

Don't get a Xircom for OS/2. They never finished their OS/2 Card
and Socket Services driver (after releasing their initial OS/2 driver
2 years ago). What this means is that if you pull out the card while
OS/2 is running, it'll lock up; ditto if you insert it. If you come out
of hibernation, the card also does not get reinitialized, so you have
to reboot OS/2. Hopefully, their 100Mbps card will have better OS/2
support, but I doubt it...

p.s., IBM's ethernet card works for the above test cases if you use fixpack
17...

I third the request. I had a couple of stores that I called to try and get
it, but I have had no luck.
To stop the flow of requests that may come into me, here is one of the
stores that supposedly has this magical adapter:
Micro Sense, Inc.
370 Andrew Ave.
Leucadia, CA 92024
800-544-4252
Just ask them for a 2.5"->standard IDE connector for a thinkpad hard drive.
I believe it was less that $20. If someone actually can get through to
these guys, can you post the manufacturer of the part and the part number?
I called the store a few months ago, and asked them who made it. They
wouldn't give me the manufacturer, and would only say 'Oh, it's somebody up
the coast.' I have been searching for this holy grail for a while.
Be warned, there is an external adapter that they may try to sell you.
While the internal costs about $20, the external costs about $200. If
someone already has an internal adapter, please send me the manufacturer and
part number.
