ADB Hot-Swapping on Wallstreet -- reference
Ken ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) and I were discussing last week whether ADB peripherals on a Wallstreet PB could be safely hot-swappable. At that time I didn't have any clear-cut references to support my position. I since have run across the following unequivocal notation. I'm offering it so that those that are interested will note that this wasn't just a WAG or merely my opinion (neither of which is worth a whole lot :-)). http://db.tidbits.com/getbits.acgi?tbart=05941 Apple's PowerBook G3 Series - one of the last machines to ship with ADB ports - enabled hot-swapping of ADB devices, as noted in the developer documentation linked below. http://til.info.apple.com/ techinfo.nsf/ artnum/ n30935 http://developer.apple.com/ techpubs/ hardware/ Developer_ Notes/ Macintosh_ CPUs- G3/ PowerBookG3Series.pdf http://til.info.apple.com/ techinfo.nsf/ artnum/ n21042 Cheers, Bob -- If replying privately, please include my name in the To: address, so that my filters won't send your reply to the trash. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: iBook or PowerBook
From: ShaunOtter [EMAIL PROTECTED] Key question: Is your 17 TFT's (or any other monitor you may eventually want on your iBook) native screen resolution higher than your proposed iBook's?

Installing OS X on Lombard
Rumors go that one should be able to install OS X on a Lombard (400 Mhz). However, in spite of numerous tries with different configurations of RAM ( from 64 to 384), no success yet. During installation the book invariable freezes and it does so irrespective of whether I try to install 10.0, 10.2 or 10.3. I've heard X is quite picky about it's RAM: does that mean all three sticks I have are corrupted?

Procedure For Unplugging (Was: Dead Pismo)
If I can isolate a salient point perhaps hidden in this excerpt. I really don't want to hijack the thread, but this is a issue that very few G3 PowerBook owners seem to know. I was told when I first purchased my Wallstreet (was it in the owner's manual??) to always unplug the power cord from the PB first, then unplug the AC adapter from the wall. I don't know when, or if, this has changed concerning the subsequent PowerBooks. Maybe Kyle can pitch in and let us know.

Re: To iBook or AlBook, that is the question
From: Ben Dyer [EMAIL PROTECTED] The GPU may not seem like it's too important, but under Tiger, none of the iBooks (nor the Mac mini, for that matter) will support CoreImage. Very valid point! So this includes the 12 PB G4 1GHz ??? --- The DVI out is another big thing -- if you want to upgrade the LCD (or if the current one has a DVI connecter), it's much better to go DVI-DVI (or even DVI-VGA) than VGA-DVI. Yes, I had thought of this. --- Also, PowerBooks can (officially) take more RAM (up to 1.25GB No, the same: http://www.apple-history.com/frames/body.php?page=gallerymodel=ibook_g4_lat_04 http://www.apple-history.com/frames/body.php?page=gallerymodel=pg4_12_dvi --- An extra 10GB hard drive space is not huge either way, but you'll probably hit the limits of the 30GB drive reasonably soon, so at least the 40GB gives you more time to upgrade. Not for me as the PowerBook/iBook won't house any file storage, I will have my server for that. The *Book will act a bit more like an NC.

Re: Dead Pismo
Good morning all. I used the old paperclip method and opened the CD drive and inserted the Restore CD and hit the power key and the system booted up to OS9. The battery shows one light and so I tried to boot up from the internal HD which has OS 10.3.6 . I get the big apple no spinning wheel and it just hangs with the big apple showing. I get the usual start up sound as well. After waiting 5min or so, I give up and press the power key+apple+control to restart holding down the C key to start again from the Restore CD and it will do this. How frustrating. Any suggestions any one? The other thing to consider would be the PMU. I'm thinking about all the components that have to do with power management. The PMU and/or the Sound Card are the most likely culprits of your problem. I'm not so sure that the logic board would be at fault. That's not to say that it couldn't be but... As for the PMU, it is separate from the mb. Follow this link to see a picture of it: http://www.powerbookmedic.com/Power___Charger_PMU_Battery_Board_Pismo- p-16137.html It is on slide 22 at the 'take apart' link I sent you yesterday. There is this from xlr8yourmac.com about the PMU reset: ...Most often it is due to a dead cell in the backup battery, or just a corrupted PMU. The problem is that you can't reset the PMU correctly from a dead backup battery. You can zap the PMU, which will get the backup battery charging again. Then reset it in a few hours when the battery has some charge. The steps are below. If this doesn't correct it, then they most likely have a bad (not just dead, but bad cell) battery that is corrupting the PMU on its own. The first suggested fix is an accurate set of PMU resets as follows. RESETTING THE PMU A corrupted PMU (Power Management Unit) board can cause many sleep/startup issues. The PMU is the Power Management Unity of the system. When the batteries are completely drained, draining too fast, or a battery with a bad cell exists, or if the AC adapter is unplugged from the wall, but left connected to the PowerBook, the PMU can become corrupted If the internal motherboard backup battery has become completely drained, then a 2nd PMU reset will be needed about 4 hours after the 1st PMU reset and the system has been plugged in for at least an hour (once the motherboard battery has enough power to reset the PMU properly). The first reset (due to a dead MB battery) wipes the PMU. The second reset (using the charged MB battery) rewrites the PMU with long-term firmware. Before resetting the PMU, check all connections. If possible. Put the system to sleep and insert a known good battery, then test. Reset the PMU as follows: Unplug the AC from the PowerBook. Eject the battery(s). Depress the PowerBook reset switch ONE TIME (in the back by the modem, marked by a white triangle). Wait 10 seconds. Replug the AC. Reinsert the Battery. Restart the system. After the system has had about 4 hours of plugged in time, repeat the PMU reset as outlined above. This will rewrite the correct PMU code using the trickle from the motherboard battery's charge to do the writing. If the system still does not charge/drain/startup correctly. You can try a hard motherboard reset. Follow the same instructions above, but after #2, lift the keyboard and unplug the motherboard battery (lower right above CD bay, three wire connector), wait 10 minutes then proceed. After running for an hour on AC, do a normal PMU reset. Best regards, Gary Dailey DaystarTechnology.com A. M. G. D. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: Dead Pismo
Get a copy of DiskWarrior as fast as you can and run it...It will probably take quite a while to do so but hopefully it will work for you...I had similar problem in July of '03 when my Pismo acted that way...I was able to get it started once in a while in OS9 but X just hung there...When I got DW it took a while for it to load from the CD but it finally did. The fact that it starts from the Restore CD shows thatthere is power etc...It sounds to me like the HD got really corrupted...As I said, I thought thatI had hardware problems also and it turned out ok..The Pismo is still running merrily except for that [EMAIL PROTECTED]* LG DVD drive that died...Hope this helps!!! Regards, Mike K CHARLES RICHARDS wrote: Good morning all. I used the old paperclip method and opened the CD drive and inserted the Restore CD and hit the power key and the system booted up to OS9. The battery shows one light and so I tried to boot up from the internal HD which has OS 10.3.6 . I get the big apple no spinning wheel and it just hangs with the big apple showing. I get the usual start up sound as well. After waiting 5min or so, I give up and press the power key+apple+control to restart holding down the C key to start again from the Restore CD and it will do this. How frustrating. Any suggestions any one? The other thing to consider would be the PMU. I'm thinking about all the components that have to do with power management. The PMU and/or the Sound Card are the most likely culprits of your problem. I'm not so sure that the logic board would be at fault. That's not to say that it couldn't be but... As for the PMU, it is separate from the mb. Follow this link to see a picture of it: http://www.powerbookmedic.com/Power___Charger_PMU_Battery_Board_Pismo- p-16137.html It is on slide 22 at the 'take apart' link I sent you yesterday. There is this from xlr8yourmac.com about the PMU reset: ...Most often it is due to a dead cell in the backup battery, or just a corrupted PMU. The problem is that you can't reset the PMU correctly from a dead backup battery. You can zap the PMU, which will get the backup battery charging again. Then reset it in a few hours when the battery has some charge. The steps are below. If this doesn't correct it, then they most likely have a bad (not just dead, but bad cell) battery that is corrupting the PMU on its own. The first suggested fix is an accurate set of PMU resets as follows. RESETTING THE PMU A corrupted PMU (Power Management Unit) board can cause many sleep/startup issues. The PMU is the Power Management Unity of the system. When the batteries are completely drained, draining too fast, or a battery with a bad cell exists, or if the AC adapter is unplugged from the wall, but left connected to the PowerBook, the PMU can become corrupted If the internal motherboard backup battery has become completely drained, then a 2nd PMU reset will be needed about 4 hours after the 1st PMU reset and the system has been plugged in for at least an hour (once the motherboard battery has enough power to reset the PMU properly). The first reset (due to a dead MB battery) wipes the PMU. The second reset (using the charged MB battery) rewrites the PMU with long-term firmware. Before resetting the PMU, check all connections. If possible. Put the system to sleep and insert a known good battery, then test. Reset the PMU as follows: Unplug the AC from the PowerBook. Eject the battery(s). Depress the PowerBook reset switch ONE TIME (in the back by the modem, marked by a white triangle). Wait 10 seconds. Replug the AC. Reinsert the Battery. Restart the system. After the system has had about 4 hours of plugged in time, repeat the PMU reset as outlined above. This will rewrite the correct PMU code using the trickle from the motherboard battery's charge to do the writing. If the system still does not charge/drain/startup correctly. You can try a hard motherboard reset. Follow the same instructions above, but after #2, lift the keyboard and unplug the motherboard battery (lower right above CD bay, three wire connector), wait 10 minutes then proceed. After running for an hour on AC, do a normal PMU reset. Best regards, Gary Dailey DaystarTechnology.com A. M. G. D. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Fingers crossed this will! At first i thought that it was my system but i can receive mails no problem and also send to everyone else no problem. So i blamed my ISP because they said they could not give me online support in OSX or even useing a Mac as they had no tech's.

Painting AlBook ???
My PB vs. iBook decision is nearing it's end and I'm leaning towards the AlBook.

Unfortunately it has a US keyboard (I'm in Sweden) so I am actually considdering repainting the keys too, which makes the whole thing a lot more interesting...

Dented AlBook ...
Yes, I know I keep firing these mails, but I feel it's better to keep mails with subjects and topic names seperate as topics seem to stray real easy... Anyway, I have received a photo of the damage to the 12 ABook, but am unsure of how this affects it. Apparently there was a mobo change (with receipts) and it's working fine, but how fixable is the front cover ? Anyone interested, mail me and I'll send the small photo, as I can't send it to the list, and nor do I have a place to upload it at the moment. Larry _ Express yourself instantly with MSN Messenger!

Re: Installing OS X on Lombard
If you get a single stick of PC100 sdram at 128mb and put it in the lower slot 10.3 should load fine. PC 66 and PC133 are no good it must be 100. I do not know why but that was the only way i could get panther on my 400 Lombard when i had it. After the install i just put the ram i had back in and it was fine running but for the install it had to be Pc100 sdram. vicki -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Then there's a couple of possibilities: the maclaunch servers are down, or not responding. the maclauch servers may be set to ignore your email servers as an antispam measure. Usually this means that your ISP has been put on some RBL or another for sending spam, or your ISP's reverse DNS wasn't working. DNS resolution means you enter mail.maclaunch.com and the DNS servers give the computer the numeric address it needs to properly send the message, in this case 157.238.133.140. Reverse lookup means you send the DNS servers 157.238.133.140 and it should come back as 'mail.maclaunch.com'. Many spam servers do not properly do this, so a number of antispam filters block messages from hosts that do not match both forward (name to number) and reverse (number to name) lookups. Again, not *your* problem, entirely, though it clearly affects you.

Browser issues
Hi listers, I need your help I noticed that my road worrior, powerbook g3/300/384/OS 9.2.2, was running slowly and freezing for periods of about a minute or more - sometimes less. To say the least it was very frustrating.So I had this bright idea (it seemed bright at the time) why not reinstall 9.2.2. So I did a clean install. Now I can't log on to the net using either netscape 7.02, 4.76, 4.79 or IE 5.1.7. The strange thing is that the remote access connects without any problems. It's the browsers that do not connect. I'm using all my previous settings and just to make sure I rechecked with verizon support. He advised me to call apple since every setting is correct. Okay you bright people out there surely one of you must know whats going on. This is my road worrior and I hate to be only logged on when I'm home. TIA, Pete. __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Even more Pismo Problems!
Yes, this is the same 2000 vintage Pismo I've been writing about for the last couple months... Initial symptoms were freezes and eventually wouldn't boot at all. After replacing the hard drive and a fresh install of OSs 9.1 and 10.2 it was working better. In fact at times it would go for a few hours without freezing. But the freezes are back, even after I took out the processor card and reseated it. I did note some dirtyness where the processor contacts the heat sink though, and like another listmember's my case is also mysteriously cracked.

Re: Even more Pismo Problems!
Thanks James- the PRAM battery shows normal voltage so I haven't replaced it. On Sunday, January 16, 2005, at 09:35 PM, James Sanderson wrote: PRAM battery. It seems that replacing it solves a number of issues, though not your mysterious crack. j sanderson On 16 Jan 2005, at 21:23, Dyna wrote: Yes, this is the same 2000 vintage Pismo I've been writing about for the last couple months... Initial symptoms were freezes and eventually wouldn't boot at all. After replacing the hard drive and a fresh install of OSs 9.1 and 10.2 it was working better. In fact at times it would go for a few hours without freezing. But the freezes are back, even after I took out the processor card and reseated it. I did note some dirtyness where the processor contacts the heat sink though, and like another listmember's my case is also mysteriously cracked. Any suggestions? thanks, Dyna -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: Browser issues
Whenever you use a browser you need a DNS address, DNS stands for Domain Name Server. This is a big computer run by a company or university usually that provides something like a phone book of all domains that allows your browser to find where to go for what you are looking for. My suspicion is that you didn't put one in there; go to Control Panels, TCP/IP, pick which interface (ethernet or WiFi card or 56k modem), and where it says Name server Addr put 206.124.64.253, that's one of Verizon's DNSs.

To say the least it was very frustrating.So I had this bright idea (it seemed bright at the time) why not reinstall 9.2.2. So I did a clean install. Now I can't log on to the net using either netscape 7.02, 4.76, 4.79 or IE 5.1.7. The strange thing is that the remote access connects without any problems. It's the browsers that do not connect. I'm using all my previous settings and just to make sure I rechecked with verizon support. He advised me to call apple since every setting is correct. Okay you bright people out there surely one of you must know whats going on. This is my road worrior and I hate to be only logged on when I'm home.

Unfortunately it has a US keyboard (I'm in Sweden) so I am actually considdering repainting the keys too, which makes the whole thing a lot more interesting...
