The router's connected through DHCP to my DSL modem, it basically runs at factory settings all the time except for the SSID is different. Are the MTU settings the same on all the computers? The MTU is the number that's usually either 1500 or 1492, and all the computers should be the same duplex, like half-duplex or full-duplex, and the same speed. In OSX it's all in the Network settings under ethernet, if they are all on automatic then that eliminates my idea, because they would match the settings from the router. They probably are, because I have no idea what an MTU is or how it would be different from one machine to the next... I have a Linksys wireless router, and there are two subnets, one for wireless and one for ethernet. This will be the same on all routers. I use static routing, with as few computers as you and I have it's easier to configure. You can go into the router and change from DHCP to static, give each computer a different address, (i.e. 192.168.1.x), then go into the network settings of each computer and make them static and give them one of the addresses you just put into the router. The router interface, when my wired machine goes down, will say it's still connected, with a different address than the iBook that's interfering. And sometimes it doesn't cause a problem, like if I start pinging the router from the wired machine, and keep it pinging while the files transfer, for some reason... Try making the computers all static, all you need to do is tell the router which addresses (192.168.1.x) have computers (routing table). I am guessing you mean by the interface a webpage. It can be disconnected from the internet if that's what you mean, that has nothing to do with transfers between computers on the subnet. The iBook MUST have a different address from the hard wired computer at all times. Maybe you could try ftp instead of appletalk. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: Use External FW drive as backup boot drive for Powerbook?

I would like to use that external drive as a backup boot drive in case my main drive dies on me some day (i.e. so I could hook up the external drive and boot off of that and copy files off the Powerbook onto the external FW drive before shipping it off to Applecare). Can I do this? How would I tell the Powerbook to boot off of the external drive? If so, What's the best way to install OS X onto the FW drive? [note: all I am looking for is a very minimal installation so I can just boot it and hook up the Powerbook] TjL Simply plug in the drive, format it, and pop in your OS X install CD, select the drive for install, and install OS X. It's a no brainer. Once OS X is installed, you can select the startup disk in System Preferences. If, for example, something is corrupted on your internal drive in your Pismo and you need to boot from the Firewire drive, then after you press power on your Pismo (make sure the external drive is plugged in and powered up), hold down the shift key until you see a blue screen where you will be able to select a drive to boot from.

Replacing hinges on Titanium Powerbook
OK, like many, the hinges on my Titanium Powerbook have failed. As I understand it there are 3 basic choices. 1. Replace the whole screen. 2. Risk taking the LCD apart and replace just the hinges. 3. Create some make-shift hinges. Well option 1 is out, WAY too expensive to replace the whole screen. Option 2 I'll pass on since it seems to be a very difficult operation and there is a good chance I will screw it up and be forced into option 1. Now option 3 sounds great.I found this website ( http://www.photo.is/titanium.html ) which describes how to make your own hinges for about $10. Only problem is I have neither the parts nor the hand-eye coordination to think that I could do this. What I want to know is there anyone on list who after taking a look at those instructions think they could make a set of these hinges for me. I am willing to offer either $25 cash or a Quadra 660/AV I have sitting around. Hope to hear from someone.

Keeping it at this level setting is plenty loud enough now for me to hear System Alerts, interface sounds, and iTunes playback. If I adjust the volume up to even half, it can be heard annoyingly in another room. I have no idea when exactly this happened or how. I tried the key-combination resets and the reset button in the back, none have corrected the loud volume. Has anyone experienced this or heard of this before? Is this a PRAM battery issue? What happens if you turn the sound off? And then on to the minimum setting again? -- Clark Martin Redwood City, CA, USA Macintosh / Internet Consulting I'm a designated driver on the Information Super Highway -- Hi Clark, Thanks for writing back. No volume level adjustment has any affect on the start-up chime. I used the slider in Sys Prefs pane to (1) lowest before off, (2) all the way down to off, and (3) muted sound, then restarted and each time chime was very loud. Once desktop comes up, the volume seems to be where I last set it, which it still quite loud at the lowerst setting. Previously, I set the volume to three segments using the keyboard volume keys for average comfortable listening for myself. Now, one segment is too loud. I am quite stimied by this. My Pismo is over 4 years old now, and a couple times recently the battery has completely died on me before I could charge it. I think it even died once beyond the point of holding the Pismo in Sleep mode. I think the volume anomaly started soon after that incident. So, I wonder if the internal battery (PRAM) became drained as well, and is now shot. Scott Sure sounds like a PRAM battery issue. How long have you allowed the Pismo to charge undisturbed? Let it sit overnight either off or asleep, then see how it does on a restart. In any case, the Pismo PRAM battery is easy to replace.

Re: A question regarding OpenGL. . .
OpenGL generally isn't user-configurable, except via the preferences or options dialogs of programs that use it. You could try messing around with it via the OpenGL Driver Monitor or OpenGL Profiler (in Developer/Applications/Graphics), but there's not much point in doing that for most people. Under OS X, OpenGL hardware acceleration is fully supported on any machine with a Rage 128 or better (that's Pismo or later for laptops, and BlueWhite G3 or later for desktops). If you have an AGP card with 16MB or more VRAM, parts of the GUI will be drawn using OpenGL. All the iTunes Use OpenGL button does is use OpenGL to speed up some of the 2D drawing operations. If you've got 16MB or more VRAM, the difference should be noticeable. Cheers, Ben On 29 Jan 2005, at 20:29, Zoltan Batiz wrote: Is OpenGL user configurable? Or is this one of those background things? And is there a certain (gulp) video ram requirement just to make it work? Or is it always working? I was enjoying the Visualizer in iTunes today and noticed that under the options button, I had clicked Use OpenGL. . . which spawned this thread.

Re: ibook help- no idea why its not working!
Similar symptoms, different results. Tried assorted fixes (TechTools, Repair Permissions, etc) so Brought iBook into Apple store, had tech look at it, from the start-up or actually lack-of start-up it was determined it was the Logic Board. He took the iBook gave me a receipt, said about two weeks and a possible HD re-initialization (already did back-up). 6 days later (regular days not business days) had my iBook back and all info still on the HD.

Re: iBook not playing nice on the network!

I am guessing you mean by the interface a webpage. It can be disconnected from the internet if that's what you mean, that has nothing to do with transfers between computers on the subnet. The iBook MUST have a different address from the hard wired computer at all times. Maybe you could try ftp instead of appletalk. It does have a different address, every time I look in the information thing it gives the address of every machine connected, and they're not the same. They generally seem to get the same address they got the last time each time they connect, though, so it's more or less static I guess, even though I didn't set it that way specifically. Are both computers on the same subnet mask? This is 255.255.255.255 in mine, it is 255.255.255.0 on yours (I looked at the manual) and both computers need to have the same mask. I think DHCP takes care of this, though. It's hard to figure out your problem. I can only get Appletalk to work one way between my iBook (on wireless) and G5 (wired), the one that mounts the drives can only do the transfers. I never bothered to waste the time to figure out how to get it to work both ways. I can use Appletalk both ways between my Linux boxes and G5, they are both wired. It would be a good idea to try one of the Networking websites, dslreports.com is a good one. You can find out what problems your particular router is giving other people. Upgrading the firmware can help, or not, it depends. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
