Not possible. This depends on Internet Config, and under classis that

No, I don't know where that's coming from...there are no USB 2.0 drivers

LOL, I went and bought a USB floppy for those rare times I had to 
deal with a floppy, it was cheap enough and happened often enough it 
was worth it to me.

But specifically on issue, I thought 10.x (or at least 10.2.x) didn't 
need a driver for support of USB 2 cards?

Send it in to Apple immediately.  That sounds like a bad backlight, and you
are within your 1 year warranty period.  Also consider buying Applecare for
it to extend your service period.

Re: USB 2.0 Adaptec Card

There are several USB 2.0 cards that do work in OS X ... PCI cards that 
is, one made by I/O Gear. With PC Cards I am not so sure but I would 
not be terribly surprised to find drivers outside of the company that 
made it. When it comes to OS X Open Source is doing great things, look

Sounds like a classic case of a bad backlight. If it's 6 months old, 
Apple will fix it for free.

I'm pretty sure OS X doesn't support USB 2.0.  USB 2.0 devices will 
run at 1.1 speeds using Apple's drivers.

I know Orange SAID they were going to have 2.0 drivers for their 
cards under OS X, but I never checked back as I don't have OSX so 
can't get that speed anyway.  I don't know about other makers of 2.0 
cards.

There are no USB 2.0 drivers built into 10.2.3

If it's running, it's at 1.1, since that's all you've got.

I've had the same problem in the past with my internal; I even went so 
far as to replace it with a GV internal modem, which (more or less) did 
the trick. Most of the time, the modem would work at lower 
compression/speed, but the net is a difficult thing to wrestle with at 
28.8-33.6. The strangest thing I found was that the modem would work 
perfectly in select locations, and very poorly in others. I can only 
form the hypothesis that the locations that worked consistently had a 
perfect telephone signal, while the others did not.

Hope your troubles work out.

Re: PCMCIA volume not Recognized on Pismo

[Jim]

Phil,

Yeah, I've tried the restarting thing, with the card inserted.  For the 
record, I've also tried zapping the PRAM and resetting the power 
manager.  It just doesn't show up.  I like your idea about mounting, 
but since Jaguar will mount flash media in PCMCIA cards, it seems 
perplexing.  I would love to know how your "drive shuttle" works (or 
doesn't) under Jaguar.  Is yours the Apricorn "EZ-Gig" variety?  Or 
what?

Anyone else?  TIA.

USB 2.0 Adaptec Card

[Byron Gardner]

Will this work in 2.0 speed on a PB G3 Wallstreet running 10.2.3?

Do I need new drivers? If so, where to get them?

OR or the 2.0 drivers already built in 10.2.3?

Any way to determine what speed the card is running? (1.1 or 2.0)

Thanks,
Byron

She's inside her warrenty period, I would suggest she take or send it in, I
seriously doubt that it's software; this sounds more like a hardware
problem. Does moving the screen, i.e. more open or closed make any
difference? I would contact Apple support and go by their recommendations
which I will venture to guess would be to get it to them for a look-see.

Jim, I have one of these drive shuttles - and indeed it used to work 
just fine under OS 9.

Now, I haven't used mine in ages (laziness, I guess) but I'm beginning 
to suspect that OS X isn't recognizing the card as something with which 
it needs to do something.  You know how when you connect a FireWire 
drive the volumes on it get automatically mounted?  Well, I think that 
perhaps automount is run when you insert this card.

Two things, the first of which is relatively simple.  Have you tried 
restarting your powerbook with that card inserted?  Second, I wonder if 
there isn't a Terminal command that might need to be run to get the 
volumes to mount.

hmm... *ponders*

help! powerbook backlight problems

[frank hebbert]

I asked for help on the x4u list on this topic, but got no replies...

The problem is described below. It has now occurred four times, three times
in the last 20 minutes.

Extra info - Powerbook G4, 6 months old, running 10.2.3. When the screen
goes dark, I can open System Prefs and move the brightness slider - but
nothing changes. The screen stays dark.

Please help!

Frank

computer-to-computer and software base station are two entirely different monsters.

in OS X 10.2 on the iMac, go into sharing and go to the internet tab. turn on 'share 
ethernet connection with wireless computers' (or similar).

The Lombard should then see the Airport network like any other Airport/WiFi network.

Notes from the List Mom

[Dan Knight]

We've been having problems with the LEMlists mail server since January 6. 
I downloaded a boatload of email last night (well over 100 messages after 
first culling spam), discovered how many digests I'm missing, and have 
already sent out requests for those.

I also have 10 days worth of listmom messages to wade through, which will 
be my top priority once the morning site update for Low End Mac is done.

Just a few reminders:

* If you can't unsubscribe or change subscription mode, contact me or one 
of the nannies (only the busier lists have nannies).

* There is nothing we can do about the warning messages saying Maclaunch 
was unable to deliver messages. This is out of our control.

* If you can't post to the list, you should get a bounced message 
explaining why. The main reasons are:

  1. You are sending from an unsubscribed address.

  2. You are sending styled text or a message with an attachment.

You can only post from a subscribed address, and the server has been 
instructed to refuse anything other than plain text email.
