Hmm.  I'm using an iRock FM transmitter that I purchased from the local 
Apple Store.  Works great, but is a bit hard on batteries (AAA).  Make 
sure to turn it off when you're not using it.

Re: Wallstreet on OS X problem

2003-03-18 Thread Kris Dunn
I continue to have a similar problem with the same machine wallstreet 250. I
thought it was fixed because it has been running fine for the last week or
so.

However, yesterday the system locked up when browsing the internet. The
pointer stopped moving and the keyboard would not respond either. I ended up
having to used the fn-ctrl-shift-power to shut it down. Upon startup there
was a significant pause of silence after the chime followed eventually by a
pulsing hard drive and flashing question mark. Booting with the 10.2 install
disk and using the disk utilities I was able to repair permissions, so it
could see and access the disk, but it still would not boot.

I am currently in the process of wiping the drive and reinstalling. This
time I have partitioned the drive in hopes of possibly being able to recover
without reformatting. Would it be any help installing 10.2 on both
partitions? I do not have an os 9 disk and being a newbie I am not familiar
with os 9 anyway. 

I am also not planning on installing the 10.2.4 update this time to see if
that has any effect. Will I notice anything different if I do that?

Thanks
--Kris

I must say, I still prefer the good old CD to Tape Deck adapters. Reason 
being is that the adapters are a metal tape, which is the CD quality version 
of cassette. Much cleaner sound than the FM transmitters.

on long drives, i find the iRock works great. in and around any big

Pismo and open firmware trick

2003-03-18 Thread Joe Ellis
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.

Had the problem prior to the upgrade. And yes, I'm pressing the keys
immediately, both from a restart and from a full off condition.

In researching this problem; I got a PDF of the Apple troubleshooting and
disassembly guide and from what I can discern from it, the sleep state is
controlled from an IC chip called PMU99 and I suspect this IC is my problem;
however, the book is not clear on where this particular IC chip is mounted.
It could be on the Power Manager circuit card, the sound and power control
card or the main logic board. I've eliminated the Power Manager board
because I was able to try a replacement card to no avail. That leaves the
sound card or the logic board.

CardBus USB adapter

2003-03-18 Thread KADaggett
This message written: Tuesday, 18 March 2003 15:15:43 PST

Have had nothing but frustration getting a USB cardbus adapter to run in 
my Wallstreet.

Have a 300MHZ machine with 96MB Ram and OS 9.2.2.

Have tried two different brands. One (siig) advertises as operating at 
USB 1.1 with no additional drivers.

When I insert the card, the USB cardbus icon appears on the desktop and 
in a few seconds the system hangs, requiring a hard boot.

Same thing with extensions off.

What have I missed?

Ken

Use it up, wear it out, make it do or do without.

iPod in Car

2003-03-18 Thread Sk8rdi16
I have the iRock fm transmitter.  It is OK for a transmitter.  I now have  my iPod 
hooked to the auxillary input of my kenwood cd player.  Probably the best thing to do 
if you have any car audio experience is to buy an fm modulator.  They attach to the 
actual antenna of your car.  You can find them with RCA inputs.  This will work with 
any factory radios.

Re: CardBus USB adapter

2003-03-18 Thread Heok Hee Ng


Have had nothing but frustration getting a USB cardbus adapter to run in 
my Wallstreet.

Did you disable processor cycling in the Energy Saver control panel?

Re: Pismo and open firmware trick

 the pismo should definitely boot to open firmware and there's no real
 trick to it... just hold down cmd-opt-o-f and fire her up.

The trick is the keys have to be down *before* you hit the power 
button...which is a *heck* of a lot easier on a Powerbook than a regular 
Apple Design Keyboard, where the power key is about a half mile from 
everything else...

If you wait even as long as the bong to start it won't work.

Found the TechInfo document after I sent the message. Disabled processor 
cycling and at least now the machine doesn't hang. Still won't mount my 
digital camera. The camera mounts on the 6500 with a USB PCI card under 
OS 9.1. Annoying. 

Now to install the Epson 777i printer drivers on the Wallstreet and see 
if I can at least get that to work.

Thanks.

Replying to my own message, in a manner of a progress report.

Installed the Epson 777i drivers. Printer works well on the 6500 with a 
PCI USB card.

The Wallstreet can't see the printer. Offers no option with the USB PC 
card installed. Chooser only shows Modem/Printer Port. Darn

Use it up, wear it out, make it do or do without.

Connecting two AirPort cards

2003-03-18 Thread Eric D.
Hello, another question about PowerBooks and wireless:

(a) can two AirPort cards talk to each other, or do they need an Airport
Base Station?

(b) can two of any other PCMCIA wireless cards talk to each other, or do
they too need the (equivalent to a) Base Station?

(c) can Airport and non-Airport 802.11b or 802.11g cards co-exist on an
Airport wireless network?

(d) has anyone figured out how to get non-Apple cards into the airport slot?
There is a report on www.Macintouch.com (I think that's where I saw it...
maybe it was on dealmac.com's discussion forums (it was today I saw it))
that said it was possible to get a non-Apple card working in the Airport
slot (it just didn't fit properly) -- the Mac OS supposedly recognised it as
an Airport card.

Eric.
