G3 Powerbook control panels questions
Hello G3 Powerbook gurus, As a recent new owner of a PB G3 (Lombard, Mac OS 9.2), I've been on the lookout for and read several related FAQ lists, but still had a question or two about this new computing environment for me. 1. Energy saver control panel. I've always set the sleep setting to never on my various PowerMacs, not wanting to cause problems with longer WWW downloads, etc., getting by with just a screen saver. All that's changed now, particularly because of the occasional need to conserve battery power. Is it still possible, or advisable to set the Energy saver control panel to never? 2. Since I notice now an additional trackpad control panel, is the mouse control panel still necessary, or should it be de-activated in extensions manager? Thanks for any insight on these questions.

iBook vs PowerBook 12
Hi I am thinking about buying a new iBook or PowerBook. Basically what I want is to be able to use an external monitor preferably a pivot 15 or 17. I like to be able to see a whole A4 page at once. So my question is would the iBook suffice? Can it only mirror the internal screen or could it also turn it around to a pivot monitor? -Peter -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

On battery you definitely want it to sleep in a short time. You probably aren't going to be doing any long downloads on battery. The Energy Saver control panel has separate settings for battery and AC. I would still let the screen, drive and system sleep on AC. A Powerbook is a very dense collection of circuitry and while it hopefully won't ever overheat it still tends to run hotter than a desktop. Letting it sleep when it's not busy is a good idea. It shouldn't sleep while you are downloading. Sometimes I've run into problems where it won't wake from screen sleep. In those cases where I can identify the problem it has turned out that it was simply a program hanging and it only happened to have the screen asleep when it happened. When I have a persistent problem like this I do set the screen to not sleep. Then I have some clue what happened. 2. Since I notice now an additional trackpad control panel, is the mouse control panel still necessary, or should it be de-activated in extensions manager? It doesn't hurt to leave it active. It just controls the settings, the actual part that is using the settings is built into the OS. -- Clark Martin Redwood City, CA, USA Macintosh / Internet Consulting I'm a designated driver on the Information Super Highway -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: Does D-Link Router support Appletalk?
I purchased a D-link 614+ wireless router. The router does all internet stuff OK in both wireless and otherwise mode. I can even turn off the DHCP so that it can work in the network that already has an asante router going to the cable modem and other switches. HOWEVER, whether I am just going from port to port, or through the WAN port or through wireless, I cannot see any of the network. I cannot see the other OSX macs, or the OS9 macs or the appletalk or the usb printers. Yes I turned on appletalk and so forth. What's going on here? Does D-link not support some protocols?

Pismo 400,10.3.2 PLW NTR
Greetings and Happy New Year Lista's, A quick question for the cognoscenti in the groupI have a Pismo 400 and an Imac SE 400 that I have been using with 10.3.2 and a PLW LS via a Keyspan serial/usb converter. The systems have worked perfectly until the other week when the LS showed a scanner motor malfunction and diedI do have a PLW NTR that works perfectly with my Performa 5200 (8.6) and LC II (7.0?) and want to know if I can use it with the Pismo/Imac via the Keyspan converter.. I also have a Dayna Ethernet to Local Talk bridge unit that I got off the LEM list but there wasn't a manual with it and I can't figure out how it worksEvidentally Intel bought out Dayna and has ceased supporting any Dayna products. The NTR was used by my wife at her school and is in great condition and I have a couple of toner carts that I can use...The printer is rarely used because I dropped Earthlink dialup and switched to Verizon DSL in October. So how about it??? Anyone have any ideas or suggestions about the possibility of getting this combo to work? If this is deemed OT, I apologize in advance..Any replies can be sent off list if desired...
