I've been looking at this and would like to clarify my understanding
on this point. You can only use the special Nokia serial cable and
gNokii with Nokia phones which support data connections and then only
if you're in a part of the country where you are getting digital
service. Maybe everything in Europe is GSM (digital) everywhere and
there's no Analog, so this isn't an issue? In the US GSM is not very
widely available at all, other services such as TDMA and CDMA are more
prevalent and older style Analog connections are what you get if you
get outside of the larger cities at all. I this situation, a PCMCIA
modem connecting to your cell phone is absolutely necessary if you
want to guarantee you can use it *everywhere*.
I'm sure I don't quite have the whole picture yet. I'm trying to
piece it all together from the sketchy documentation available on the
web.

You've summed up the situation pretty well there :-) Europe is almost
exclusively GSM -- there area few older analogue networks still running but
I believe most of them will be switched off quite soon, if they haven't
already. Almost everyone (if not every*where*) in Europe will have GSM
coverage.
As for the phones, most of the high-end Nokias, and handsets from other
manufacturers, emulate a standard modem, so while you need a special cable
to plug into the phone, you don't need gNokii or anything else to make use
of it -- it looks just like any other serial port device. Most of these
handsets will also talk IrDA. My Nokia 7110 is an example of such a
handset. Older models, like the 5110, don't have the modem emulation and
need special software to use them for data connections.
If you're going to be using mobile data a lot, I'd definitely recommend a
higher-end handset (Nokia 6xxx or 7xxx, or one of the Ericsson Rxxx). That
should 'just work' with any device with a serial or IrDA port.
Cheers,
Scott

Yes, the WEP configuration RID's have been added independently after
Lucent (WaveLan) and Intersil (Harris) developed the chipset jointly.
So in both API's the RID's are different from each other (not only
that, they also have a different meaning on PRISMII) and if you try
to enable WEP on the PRISMII it'll simply crush the card (at least
my Nokia card is wedged afterwards).
I have documented all differences in both API's and are on the way
of putting the additional code into the driver.

Not yet, AFAIK. There's a project to do this listed at:
http://www.posi.net/freebsd/drivers/driver-info.phtml?ID=4
but I'm not sure what progress has been made recently.

On the Sprint CDMA network, you can run digital to a modem somewhere
in the bowels of Sprint, and then at 14.4kbs to any other modem.
I've got a serial data cable that makes my Motorola StarTac look
like a 14.4 modem to my laptop, complete with AT/DT command set.
But, I'd have to say I like my Ricochet much better. :-)

Yes, that's right. I've been talking with Australia's mobile
telecomunications network in mind. We've phased out Analog completely.

I run W2K on my ThinkPad and I it does the job for me. At least, I don't
have a utility ps2 on my notebook. If I used it, I would'nt have the
possibility to have two different hibernation files - one for FreeBSD and
one for W2K - on my ThinkPad?

Oliver

Oliver,
I'm not sure I understand your response, but hopefully this will help.
On my TP600 the hibernation file is a file within the FAT partition of
Win95. The BIOS can find this file if I suspend to disk from Win95 or
from FreeBSD. Under either operating system, I press Fn-F12 and the
system suspends to disk.
see http://www.pc.ibm.com/qtechinfo/PFAN-3VXSNV.html
[which says you need a fat16 or fat32 partition, not just ntfs]
Did you search your harddrive for the file ps2.exe? It is possible
that it is there, but not in your path. On my TP600 the file was at
c:\thinkpad\ps2.exe.
see http://www.pc.ibm.com/qtechinfo/RMIE-3AXE3E.html
[which has the ps2.exe install download]
IBM ThinkPads have good support at www.pc.ibm.com, including a fine
search facility. Check it out.
On the other hand, I should point out that FreeBSD's apm -z (or zzz)
only suspends to RAM. That's why I use the Fn-F12 combination. Don't
let that discourage you, unless IBM removed the ability to suspend to
disk from the keyboard on your T20.
Greg

Yes, I'm usually long-term committed. Have been doing qmail-ldap for

Is this on insertion into a laptop? I had this problem as well, and
the problem wasn't the card, but the fact that my pcmcia needed to
have an IRQ assigned to it.
I did this by changing my pcic line in my kernel config to read :
device pcic0 at isa? irq 5 port 0x3e0 iomem 0xd0000
and recompiling. There are apparantly other ways of doing this.
Unfortunately, I don't know if the card you are discussing is
supported, sorry.

Jeremiah,
If the Sony card implies a Sony laptop, then you definitely could use
an irq on the pcic device.
There are three ways to assign an IRQ to the pcic:
1) the "long" way: rebuild the kernel with
device pcic0 at isa? irq 9
2) the "Peter" way: update /boot/loader.conf with
machdep.pccard.pcic_irq="09"
3) the "Greg" way: update /boot/loader.conf with
userconfig_script_load="YES"
and /boot/kernel.conf with
ir pcic0 9
q
This method assumes your kernel has device pcic0 and not just device
pcic. This is true in GENERIC kernels.
[The userconfig solution is generalizable to the various devices (with
unit numbers) in the kernel, with at least the following commands:
di sio1 (disable)
en pcic1 (enable)
po pcm0 0x530 (set port)
ir pcic0 9 (set IRQ)
dr pcm0 1 (set DRQ)
iom pcic0 0xd8000 (set iomem)
ios ata2 16 (set iosize)
f pcm0 0x10 (set flags)
ls (list all configurable devices)
q (last line)
This is very handy on those older machines where it takes a long time
to rebuild the kernel. Try boot -c to get the whole picture.]
All examples above assume irq 9 is the one you want to use. Substitute
as appropriate.
Greg

With the help of one of the list's most helpful people, I've been able to
get my WinBook FX up and running like a champ. But, I'm having a strange
problem with it as far as graphics goes...
When I'm running anything under XFree86, if the screen gets closed down
onto the rest of it, when it gets opened back up, the graphics are basically
skewed to one side and the session becomes totally unusable. Is this a
common thing? If so, is there a fix for it?
Other than that, I'm happy to report that the "Little Laptop that Could"
now can... *grins*

IrDa is not supported in FreeBSD, but you can use the infrared adapter as a
serial port to communicate with the phone. Some phones (e.g. Nokia 6110) use
a subset of IrDA (IrCOMM) that makes this possible. You have to use gnokii
though to connect to the phone.

Yes, it is supported. It just looks like a standard modem PCMCIA card.
It does not need anything special, and the default install should

Panagiotis is correct. As long as your IrDA port is detected
as a sio, you can use this as your modem port.

guys, i think you are talking about different things here:
1) suspend-to-disk by bios functions:
- needs own partition or contiguous file in (fat) partition
- suspend is serviced by the bios (?)
- wakeup is directly supported by the bios
2) hibernate support in w2k
- does not need anything except w2k installed on a sane partition
- works only in w2k
- suspend is done via mem/reg dump in the w2k kernel to a specific
file on the w2k boot partition
- wakeup is supported by w2k's bootloader which does not use bios
calls or whatever, but reads the mem image, sets up all the
protected mode structures and just starts execution where it
trapstopped where it was told to hibernate
- this is rather a debugger feature ;-)
some generic ideas on portable hibernate support:
- one could use the swap partition (it is used for crashdumps anyway, if
you enabled them)
- this could be implemented in ddb, since it already writes core files
to the swap partition
- resume support has to be built into the bootloader which has to load
the ram core from the swap partition, set up all structures and start
it
peter p: this could be somewhate related with your ideas on what-to-do
with corefiles, too -- thus a cc: to you ;-)
ideas? comments?

Hi Greg, Oliver,
IBM's Win2K installation hijacks the Fn-F12 combination to invoke the
Win2K Hibernation. The ps2 ? hfile gives the general purpose error message
of "Type PS2 ?". A ps2 ? shows a HIBernation option, but typing
"PS2 HIBernation" gives "This feature is not supported on this configuration".
This was a Win2K system on a T21 with a Fat32 1st disk partition. I've
used the Win2K Hibernate mode and I don't know exactly what it does, but
it doesn't use the same thing IBM did, as I still can't Fn-F12 from my
FreeBSD v4.3-RELEASE installation.
It tried using the PS2.exe from a Win98 T21 here in the office to set
up the hibernation file, but no luck so far. I've given up trying to
hibernate my T21 w/Win2K dual-boot.
Best of luck

Ken,
When you try Fn-F12 under FreeBSD do you get a sad beep, or no beep at
all? A sad beep can mean one of three things:
you have a network or modem pcmcia card plugged in, or maybe any pcmcia
card
you don't have a proper "hibernation" file/partition where the BIOS
expects it
you do have a proper "hibernation" file/partition where the BIOS
expects it, but you have since added memory and it won't fit in the old
file/partition
Of course, if IBM neutered the BIOS in this area we can forget about
it. I suggested to Oliver that he inquire to IBM and mention that he
wants to dual boot with Linux :) since they claim to support that in
many cases.
From what you and Karsten say it seems IBM may have disabled the old
BIOS method. Do you pop straight into the restore from disk on power
up, or does the BIOS give you the choice of operating system first?
Which MBR (O/S selector) are you using? Have you tried this with the
FreeBSD MBR, or is that even possible on this machine/BIOS combination?
[All my experience is with the FreeBSD MBR.]
Greg

Hi Greg,
I get no-beep on my win2k/4.3-release dual-boot.
I don't think the BIOS is missing it. I think it's the PS2.exe tool
for Win2K that's missing it. We have a T21 here that is a FreeBSD
v4.2/ Win98 dual-boot. I just confirmed that Fn-F12 from Win98
gives me the IBM BIOS screen and it hibernates to disk. Rebooted
into FreeBSD and Fn-F12 hibernates there as well. So it's the
same BIOS, just different OS's. I did try to copy over the Win98
PS2.exe (and ps2main.exe) to run under Win2K, but that failed
miserably (OS2 error pop-up).
All of these machines are using the FreeBSD MBR. (I confess, I experimented
with LILO once in my life, but I didn't inhale :-)
When I do a Win2K Hibernate, the OS is writing the hibernate file
rather than the BIOS. When I boot after a Win2K hibernate, I get
the bootany F1/F2/F3/F4 prompts and can boot straight into FreeBSD. I
take this to mean that the Win2K hibernate stuff is all at the point
of it's OS loader and completely independant of BIOS support. I know
the Win2K hibernate works on desktop machines, as well, which I think
further supports my theory that it's independant of BIOS. But I
don't mess with WinXX more than I have to...
Regards,
K^2

What happens if you switch the hard drives between the two T21's? [OK,
I know they are work machines and maybe you shouldn't do that :)] This
would be a nice test to perform, to isolate BIOS from Win2K bootstrap.
(Alternatively, the ThinkPad configuration tool can verify that the
BIOS versions are the same on the two machines I guess.)
Is it possible that the OS error was due to not enough files being
copied over? Or maybe the two schemes use the same file name, and this
could be overcome by booting with a Win98 formatted bootable floppy,
from which I sometimes run ps2. The hibernation file on my Win95
machine is C:\PM_HIBER.BIN. If the file names are different between
Win98 and Win2K, but the machines are the same in every other respect,
you could try copying the hibernation file from the Win98 machine to
the Win2K machine. If the BIOS is the same then it shouldn't care at
that point that the OS installed into the FAT32 partition is Win2K.
I wonder also if the Win2K problem could be solved by putting in a
FAT/FAT32 DOS partition in front of the Win2K partition, putting a
hibernate file on the new partition, then hiding it so Win2K doesn't
relabel C: -> D: etc. [OK ... again :)] PartitionMagic should be able
to do this. Since Win2K seems to be using its own bootstrap to resume
it shouldn't mind at all.

I'm jealous of that. I consider it a great feature that one could
suspend the WinXX session, dual-boot into FreeBSD, then go back and
resume the WinXX session.

Interesting ideas, but it'll be a while before I can try it.
Work getting in the way. I have limited access to the other
machine (and very limited time). I like the idea of copying the
PM_HIBER.BIN, though. The machine is identical to mine WRT Memory.
I set up my Win2K partition as FAT32 rather than NTFS with a plan of
using Hibernation. I learned the hard way about Hibernation not
liking NTFS with an NT v4.0 dual-boot TP600X :-)

When the screen is closed on the FX I believe it automatically switches
video output from the LCD to the CRT. It does this in anticipation of
you putting the machine into a docking station. If this is correct you
should be able to recreate this by using Fn-F12 to rotate LCD -> CRT ->
LCD+CRT (LCD -> LCD+CRT -> CRT?).
I don't know if it is exactly related, but others have reported that
the system is poorly behaved when trying to suspend from an X window as
opposed to the console. You might try the same Fn-F12 experiment from
the console. If that works better you may just need to switch to the
console before closing the lid.

I like my FX, although I like my Winbook XL's BIOS more. The FX had
230 days uptime as my gateway before I took it down for
experimentation.

I got the win98SE Dual-Boot machine after lunch today. Slapped it's
disk in my T21 and it hibernated from FreeBSD just fine, so BIOS is
not an issue. The hibernate file for the Win98Se is Save2dsk.bin,
a hidden file. Tried copying that into place on my Win2K(FAT32)
Dual-boot system and then rebooted into FreeBSD.
By the way, I was wrong about the beep. I keep sound off on my laptop
by default (I can't stand the friggin' Windows startup music). Turning
sound back on, I hear what I guess is a sad beep. Sorry for the incorrect
information earlier.
Anyways, I'm getting used to the suspend and 4.x boots past the ATAPI
CDROM so much faster than 3.x and previous that reboots are not
as painful, so the hibernate isn't a huge loss for me.
Thanks for the help and ideas,

Okay, I've got the freezing fixed due to the IRQ being assigned. Now I
simply have no driver support. I'm trying to figure out if the Sony Vaio
card is compatible with any other cards, or if perhaps there's a Linux
driver that could be ported. Any information ?

What do you have to compile to the kernel to make it detected? Do you
have to add extra sio port support?

Like I said, just allocate the right resources in the BIOS
and have the sio driver in the kernel. It should work.

Scuze the more than 70 char lines here...
Basically, take a look in your /var/log/messages and see if you see
something similar to this when you insert the card:
Jun 24 01:12:54 pan /kernel: pccard: card inserted, slot 0
Jun 24 01:12:54 pan pccardd[139]: Card "Lucent Technologies"("WaveLAN/IEEE") [Ve
rsion 01.01] [] matched "Lucent Technologies" ("WaveLAN/IEEE") [(null)] [(null)]
Jun 24 01:12:59 pan /kernel: wi0: at port 0x240-0x27f irq
3 slot 0 on pccard0
Jun 24 01:12:59 pan /kernel: wi0: Ethernet address: 00:02:2d:02:a6:7d
Jun 24 01:12:59 pan pccardd[139]: wi0: Lucent Technologies (WaveLAN/IEEE) inserted.
If not, don't dispair. Here is an example of an unsupported card :
Jun 25 16:49:20 pan pccardd[139]: No card in database for "Dell"("TrueMobile 115
0 Series PC Card")
To fix this, I copied the Wavelan bit of my pccard.conf and changed it
as follows :
# Dell TrueMobile
card "Dell" "TrueMobile 1150 Series PC Card"
config 0x1 "wi" ?
# config auto "wi" ?
insert /etc/pccard_ether $device start
remove /etc/pccard_ether $device stop
Now it works.
This assumes that the Sony card is a Wavelan OEM. This is a good place
to start.
