A recent post to this list suggested that some kinds of sleep problems could be cured by booting into "open firmware" and resetting nvram. The key combo is supposed to be cmd+option+o+f keys while starting up. Is there a particular trick to this? I have tried this a dozen times with no success, am I holding my tongue wrong? Will a Pismo boot into open firmware or is it an urban legend? After upgrading my trusty friend to a G4 500 MHZ processor to go along with its' roomy 40 GB drive, I am still having a problem getting it to sleep (it won't). I've already replaced the power manager in hopes of fixing it to no avail. Anyone got a suggestion? The thing is sporting a fresh new install of both OS 10.2.4 and 9.2.2 with no change in symptoms so I have pretty much ruled out a software problem with the possible exception of the firmware thing.
