This device series (Synchrotech parts PCM-CR-U1ECF2, PCM-CR-U1ESM, PCM-CR-U1EMMC) has been tested with several USB 1.1 and 2.0 compliant systems running Windows XP and Mac OS X (versions 10.1.x), and has worked with out of the box without any additional driver installation. Both operating systems provide generic support for this reader, and no further software should be required. In the case of the Memory Stick reader (PCM-CR-U1ESMS), some Windows XP installations may require additional driver support. These drivers are provided on the CD-ROM and are also available for download on the product page.
The PCM-CR-PC1IC2 works because it uses a Texas Instruments compatible PCI-1211 CardBus Controller (or equivalent PCI-1410), which is the same CardBus controller that Apple uses in its CardBus capable PowerBook G3 and PowerBook G4 models. When the reader works it requires no additional drivers or software, as Apple's PC Card stack treats the reader as it would the slot on a PowerBook. This means that any PC Card that is supported under Mac OS on the above mentioned PowerBooks should work with the PCM-CR-PC1IC2. It also means cards requiring additional driver installations on a PowerBook will need the same drivers with the PCM-CR-PC1IC2, and may or may not work (we have not tested any like this yet). We also tested the reader with an older PCI Power Macintosh (7200/90), but the PCI card was neither recognized correctly, nor worked. We suspect that this is a 'New World' versus 'Old World' ROM issue, but have not verified if this is the case.

Once you have downloaded your new driver, you'll need to install it. In Windows, use a built-in utility called Device Manager, which allows you to see all of the devices recognized by your system, and the drivers associated with them.
Normal wear and tear can be expected. Wireless capable with a PCMCIA wireless card slot (wireless card is included). It has been tested , it is in good working condition. It has COA sticker for Windows XP Professional and Windows XP Professional and all the drivers are installed. It comes as shown in the picture with a Power Adapter. Guaranteed against DOA.
Some potential customers will be disappointed that Emu still haven't come up with the promised multi-channel WDM drivers, although they aren't alone in this (Echo haven't yet provided them for their Audiofire range, for instance) and most applications now support the high-performance multi-channel ASIO drivers anyway. There is also still no GSIF driver support, although you can run Gigastudio 3 via a Rewire connection instead, as I've been doing with my 1820M.Here is a high-level input signal after the Soft Limit option is activated.

When I bought it from an auction house I did a paper cutout the same size, and marked the thickness measurement on top. Then I compared that to my existing laptop (a Toshiba Satellite 4030CDT) The difference was about 3 cm on the width and depth, and the thickness is 26 mm compared to 50ish. That simple statement does not demonstrate the "tinyness" of the Dell. It's positively weenie!
I've had good and badness wrt speedstep. A nice fellow named Gordon Farquharson said this for kernel 2.6.16.1 :I also have a Latitude L400 running Linux. Your L400 page helped me out when setting it up. I thought that you may like to know about a possible resolution to the speedstep-smi issue. Check out: _bug.cgi?id=5553 Power APM and ACPI are both functional with this laptop. However I have lots of learning still to do.The lid switch only turns off the display and the backlight... it doesn't shut the machine off. You can also press Fn-F1 to turn off the monitor.The suspend key doesn't do anything.There are no warnings when the battery life drops. All you see is the power charge light go yellow at 10% remaining, then start blinking at 5% remaining.However:thionite:> acpi -Vc Battery 1: charging, 32%, 00:48:36 until charged Thermal 1: ok, 60.0 degrees C AC Adapter 1: on-lineOr when discharging acpi returns this: Battery 1: discharging, 100%, 02:57:09 remainingAnd when the fan is running acpi returns this: Thermal 1: active[1], 72.0 degrees CI'm now running 2.6.11.12 and this behaviour has changed. You can use acpi to turn on or off the fan. I'm not sure what the values represent... more testing required.thionite:/data# echo -1 > /proc/acpi/fan/FAN0/statethionite:/data# cat /proc/acpi/fan/FAN0/statestatus: onthionite:/data# echo 3 > /proc/acpi/fan/FAN0/statethionite:/data# cat /proc/acpi/fan/FAN0/statestatus: offValueResulting fan behaviour-1Turn FANx on - no thermal sensing.

Swapping batteries confused my machine on an older kernel.

My two batteries were 2622 and 1882 mAh when I got the machine (about four years old) and after a year they're at 1775 and 1423 mAh.

Alex Korchagin is a champion! With his advice I got CPU scaling working. Here's his advice:Go to kernel configure screen and enable these: [*] CPU Frequency scaling [*] Enable CPUfreq debugging CPU frequency translation statistics [*] CPU frequency translation statistics details Default CPUFreq governor (userspace) ---> 'performance' governor 'powersave' governor --- 'userspace' governor for userspace frequency scaling 'ondemand' cpufreq policy governor --- CPUFreq processor drivers ACPI Processor P-States driver AMD Mobile K6-2/K6-3 PowerNow! AMD Mobile Athlon/Duron PowerNow! AMD Opteron/Athlon64 PowerNow! Cyrix MediaGX/NatSemi Geode Suspend Modulation Intel Enhanced SpeedStep [*] Use ACPI tables to decode valid frequency/voltage pairs [*] Built-in tables for Banias CPUs Intel Speedstep on ICH-M chipsets (ioport interface) Intel SpeedStep on 440BX/ZX/MX chipsets (SMI interface) Intel Pentium 4 clock modulation nVidia nForce2 FSB changing Transmeta LongRun VIA Cyrix III Longhaul --- shared options [ ] /proc/acpi/processor/../performance interface (deprecated) Then compile all that stuff and reboot ;)When you reboot, run "depmod -a" -> this will update modules' dependencies..To enable speedstep add this line to your system startup script: modprobe speedstep-smi smi_port=0xb2 smi_cmd=0x82 smi_sig=1Your speedstep is now enabled! Check it out with "cpufreq-info" command.There are special utilites called "governors" which scale your bus speedautomatically. I don't use them.I have 2 scripts which control speed:ethereal # cat scripts/fullecho 700000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_setspeedethereal # cat scripts/emptyecho 500000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_setspeedAnd I use them when I want to. You can use governors if you want..p.s. don't use throlling (from 0 to 7, you wrote about it), it only slows themachine and doesn't save any power :(The cpufreq utils referred to are packaged as cpufreqd and cpufrequtils in debian. cpufreqd deals with governors automatically for you if you want CPU scaling handled that way.
Parts related to this machine Optional parts include spare batteries and PSU, the Advanced Port Replicator (APR), external floppy drive and CDROM drive, external protective "Media Bay" shell for the floppy drive and CDROM, and any number of USB and PCMCIA devices.
