This falls under the useless uses for an expensive computer.
Is it possible to use the IR port as a substitute IR remote control?
I heard that the HP-LX200(?) can do this, and was wondering if there
where any drivers/programs to do this for the TP755.
Tnx.

P.S. If I am successful, I'll post solutions back to the list.

I occasionally get the big red X dialog. The Details-> reveals that the
drivers are fighting like rabid dogs with the kernel. My experience has
shown that this is usually due to problems with memory addressing...
Comments?

I think it would be great to be able to send email to my computer
at home telling it to have the VCR record some show.
... of course, the thinkpad would probably be WITH me at the time...

Message-Id: <199603132144.NAA12215@netcom10.netcom.com>
Does anyone know a good place to get trackpoint caps?
IBM Direct still sells them, but it's a pain:
- they're $5.00 + tax for a pack of 3 (this is ok)
- they're out of stock, 2-3 week backorder (I'll survive)
- $7.50 shipping charge regardless of quantity (ugh!).
Unless someone has a better idea I might order 10 packs or so
in order to get the shipping overhead to reasonable levels.
Would anyone on the list want a pack or two then? I probably
just want 1 or 2 packs for myself. Assuming I order 10 packs
and the tax is $0.40, the "group buy" price would be $6.15
per pack, plus I'd want you to send an SASE with your check.

Can the Y connector cable be used on the TP360CS to attach an external

there?

I have installed OS/2 Warp Connect on my 760CD, and everything works fine in
640x480. However, when I try to install the 760CD display drivers, the
machine hangs after copying some of the files. I have tried from the
floppy, and I have also copied the files to a directory on the HD, and
installing from there, but no better luck.
Anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks,

I managed this fine by FOLLOWING EXACTLY the instructions in the 755C
sorry 755CD, manual. Following the instructions exactly is critical.

Hello,
Has anyone tried using the "Thinkpad Windows 95 Enhancement Diskette" AFTER
they have installed Windows 95?
Has anyone tried it?
I have the latest BIOS but I did the original Win95 installation on to my
755c "by hand". Most things work OK in Win95 now except I have never been
able to get the Win95 32 bit PCMCIA drivers to work, and I've had to keep
the original IBM ones installed.
Thanks

I have this Y cable on my 360CSE for several months now and everything is
okay. I can plug a PS/2 comptible keyboard as well as PS/2 comptible mouse.

Message-Id: <1483a980@doblegate.doble.com>
Hello,
The HP palmtops has software to allow the IR port to be a remote. So I
know it could be done.
A possibly better solution is that there is a VCRPlus controller that
connects to the phone lines and allows the user to enter VCRPlus codes
via touchtone phone.
The advantage is that it is one package for under $100 dollars. The
disavantage is you need to carry around a televison schedule. The
problem is if you forgot to set the VCR, it is likely you could not
remember to bring a TV Schedule with you.
With the tp755 and voice menuing system you could get around the
problem by writing custom software that would automatically get the tv
schedules and will announce tv listings through the voice menus. The
user selects the program and the unit sends the proper codes at the
proper time to turn everything on. This also allows the user to get
past the blinking 12:00 AM on his VCR as it is turned on through the
remote. In fact another nice feature would be one that sets the VCR
clock.

...and if you don't have a tape in the machine (or its near the end
of the tape), you're *still* out of luck. ;-)
