The 74HC04 is an inverting buffer. The three pin black device by the red LED is probably a voltage regulator, since there appears to be a power cable. The silver item labelled 6.000 is a crystal. Assorted resistors and capacitors, and two diodes. Plus the LED of course. Is the big black block a PCMCIA connector, perhaps? -- Regards _ / ) "The blindingly obvious is / _)rad never immediately apparent" I hope I live to relive the days gone by Old Before I Die - Robbie Williams

Not really called for... > Maybe it was just me. I felt that by including the Cc: line in his sig. Dotan was dragging out the issue of Cc:'ing somebody's INBOX, a very basic etiquette violation, that just happen on a different thread. (I don't see the point of taking the time to start a topic, but not bother to check the list-mail box, and have someone Cc: your INBOX to inform you they put something in your list-box.) Also, it felt I had seen it before. Dotan once posted about how he would never post without doing the footwork first, then abruptly ended that post with two or three questions that basically equalled the first paragraph of the respective man pages. Anyway, I probably shouldn't have posted regardless. Seemed like a good idea at the time. :-) Finally got caught up on some sleep. -- Kind Regards, Freeman http://bugs.debian.org/release-critical/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
