I don't have your model, but here's how it works on the PowerBook (Firewire) and the PowerBook G4: hook everything up. with the lid open, power on the computer. immediately close the lid (be very careful in doing this). (apple recommends you just use a USB keyboard with a power button) Somewhere during the boot sequence, it realizes that the lid is closed, switches the built-in off, and drives the external. The only kbase article I see about this refers to the PowerBook G3 Series (Bronze Keyboard), article #58334 <http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html? artnum=58334>. I don't know if this applies to your powerbook, the PowerBook G3 Series. -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
