Re: Firewire2Go ??
I use a Firewire2Go with my Wallstreet and it works with both OS 9.1 and 10.2.1. In OS 9.1, I have used it intensely with a digital camcorder and it never failed; but I could not use it to burn CDs with a Firewire CDRW drive (Toast kept saying that it could not write to the drive fast enough - even at 1x). In 10.2.1, I have not tried the camcorder yet, but just for the hack of it, I tried burning a CD at 24x and it worked like a charm. Luis Hi, All.

Re: upgrading expansion VST bay drives
Hal [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Has anyone had any experience opening up the VST expansion bay hard drives (pismo/lombard version in particular) and installing a larger hard drive? Yes, but I cheated: I got a VST case from a guy who had already opened it up, very tidily, and provided full instructions. A year or so ago when a VST Exp Bay HD went thru my hands (with a PowerBook I was working on) I noted that it didn't seem to be easily openable; I emailed VST/SmartDisk about it, and was told that they didn't support user upgrades. Then a few months ago SmartDisk had a big closeout sale on their VST Exp Bay stuff; I was too late to get anything useful, but soon noticed a lot of them appearing on eBay, in particular from one dankephoto, who'd apparently bought up a lot of VST Exp Bay HDs, taken them apart, and was selling the cases and HDs separately for a tidy profit. Well, I can't argue with such an entrepreneurial spirit, and the guy was very up-front with description/explanation and offered plenty of clear photos. After being outbid on one or two, I went ahead and Bought It Now, figuring I was willing to pay a premium for having the job made easy for me. Which it was; I now have a 20GB Travelstar in it. I thought he'd have sold all his stock by now, but recently noticed he has another for sale: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItemitem=2064939681 Check out his excellent assembly instruction page at: http://mywebpages.comcast.net/dankephoto/ebay/sdbay/ (Go to this page in iCab and you can save it to disk complete to open any time you need it.) If you have your own case and want to open it up, this should supply all the info you need. Note in particular that the four screws that attach the drive to the case are hidden by the vinyl cover on the bottom of the case; dankephoto did a nice job of uncovering the screw heads with little circular cutouts. My only caveat: some of the case screws screw into plastic, so can easily be stripped; be careful with them, and don't plan on opening the case too many times, it's obviously not designed for it.

Re: Lombard battery
The battery on my wife's Lombard will not charge. I assume the adapter's OK because the computer will run on it. Is this assumption wrong? Might there be some way to solve the problem short of replacing the battery? The problem is likely either the battery or the charging circuitry in the computer. I suggest that you see if the battery will charge in the other battery bay. Also, try the battery in another computer and try a known good battery in your computer. This should help you isolate the fault. Paul Thanks for the advice, Paul. Seeing if the battery would charge in the other bay was something that hadn't occurred to me. It didn't help, however, and I'm assuming the battery's shot. Do not have access to other Lombards or their batteries where I am. Guess I just need to buy a new battery. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Titanium IrDA
Listers, I¹ve been using my PB G4 550 for several months, no problems. I upgraded to Jaguar a month or so ago, still good. A week ago I sync my new Handspring Treo to my Titanium via IrDA, all good. Problem is that ever since that sync, my IrDA won't turn off. The icon in the menu bar flashes constantly, as if looking for another IrDA device. When I go to the IrDA menu to shut it off, it won¹t. Any ideas? This problem does not affect the PB¹s functionality, but I figure it¹s bad for battery life. Thanks! -Matthew -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Slightly OT: Scanning Software Question
Hi All - Got a software question for you. My wife wants to use an Epson 1200photo scanner with her Pismo running 9.1. She already has it set up with Omnipage pro to do text and really likes it. She needs to scan photo's, tables, images now and we are looking for a nice and simple scanning program to use with the scanner and 9.1. She will mostly be scanning pictures/charts/graphs from documents and pasting them in other Appleworks documents (she's a teacher). We think that even PhotoDeluxe is overkill for this and puts too many extentions, etc on the PB. Before you suggest upgrading to OS X and using the very nice and simple to use image capture program that comes with it, please be assured that I have suggested this and it is not an option for her at this point. So does anyone know of a simple scanning program for saving images that's compatible with 9.1, simple to use, and twain compliant for the Epson 1200 Perfection Photo scanner? Any help would be much appreciated and would help immensely in making me look good in this situation! Sam Strong Charlottesville, Virginia -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

You should check that the keyboard is down and the tabs are locked, as this can make keys work in a strange way if it isn't locked firmly in place. Tom *Every* *day* a different key is sticky on my Pismo and it drives me nuts! By far the worst case was when the space bar was sticking. I'm sure you can imagine how that would destroy one's typing speed. I find that if I just press the key a little harder than usual, it will make a click, then stop sticking.

Rage Pro fix for Lombard
What is the status of video acceleration of the Bronze (Lombard) powerbook under Jaguar. I applied the fix program to the machine when I was running 10.1. Do I need to do it again or is hardware acceleration built into Jag? Does the program RagePro Fix for Lombard work with 10.2 or do I have to do it manually?

Re: Firewire2Go ??
Thanks to all who answered. Judging from the reports of those who responded, it looks like my particular drive/card combo is the culprit. Unfortunately, I don't have another firewire device to test with the card at this point in time. I'll soon have a firewire burner to check the operation of the card, hopefully this will verify the card's operation. Either way, it sounds like I might benefit from a visit to eBay or the lem swap list, and pick up one of the recommended cards for OS X. I'll drop a line here again once I've confirmed whether the card is operational or not. Thanks again. Rick Hi, All. Undergoing a frantic effort to get my Cardbus Firewire2Go card to work with my Lombard Powerbook. In both OS 9.2 and X.2 my card is 'seen' by Apple System Profiler, but I can't mount my LaCie pocketdrive through it, even though it's independently powered. The same drive works fine hooked up to my G4's built-in firewire port. I've applied Newer's special 'enabler' patch (v1.01) for OS 9 (and removed Apple's cardbus enabler extension, as indicated by NewerTech faq), but it still doesn't want to mount in 9.2 Likewise, wondering if anyone's gotten the card to work in OS X Jaguar. Any help would be greatly appreciated. TIA. Rick -- Rick, I've heard nothing specific regarding problems with the card in OS X.2 from any site, this one included. My firewire to go card works if I'm importing/exporting DV, but does not see my firewire hard drive-which is new and has the latest firmware. I'm using a Wallstreet II 300. I'm going to buy a new firewire card and ebay the Newer card. I need a multiport card anyway. Ross -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: Wallstreet, partitions OSX

I tried once again to install Jaguar but got the same results. To be honest I'm using copies of my original Jaguar but as I said, they work fine on my other machines. Perhaps it doesn't like the CDR media but if that were the case, it wouldn't even mount to the desktop. Plus it's the same CDR media I use to make copies of my OS9.2.1 and OSX.1.3 install CDs. Also, when I hold down the option key at startup to get a selection of drives/OSs to choose from (ie. OS9 or OSX or install CD etc.), it doesn't work. Is there maybe a firmware update I should look for, for the Wallstreet? Not sure about what is wrong. There might be something wrong with the CD-ROM drive itself. Did you try booting with your original Jaguar CD? BTW, the option key at startup won't work because there is no firmware in the Wallstreet. Well, I got Jaguar installed from my original CDs. Guess the Wallstreet's CD-ROM drive didn't like the media I copied to (even though the copy worked in my iBook just fine). But it still won't wake from sleep properly. Adjusting brightness (via the control under the screen) doesn't work nor does zapping PRAM, resting power manager, trading out the memory (twice), switching settings while in OS9.2.2 etc. etc. blah, blah, blah. Guess I'll wipe the whole thing and install OS9.1. This will at least let me know if it's a hardware or OS issue. -Mark -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
