Re: MCE Wallstreet optical EBM
Also . . . the thought has occurred to me there might still be a market for optical EBMs for these older 'Books. Anyone care to comment on the business case for producing a few hundred EBM kits (maybe just EBM shell and IF PCB, sans mechanism) that could be used in both Wallstreet and 3400/Kanga? Good find, Dan! I can't speak for anyone else, but I'd pay for such a kit... Providing it's priced reasonably, of course. That would probably be under $50 for me, considering that these 'Books are rapidly becoming vintage. How much do you think it would cost to have a factory whip up a few hundred of these boards?

All other connection attempts, except those that have specific rules in my Little Snitch setting, should render a Little Snitch dialog. This doesn't happen. Ok. This is curious. Wouldn't calls for the net get logged somewhere? I'm not sure where actually. If you have ppp logging enabled it's in /var/logs/ppp.log, iirc. They must succed when I'm on steady connection, as there is no LS dialogs so I think whatever calls there are (if that is the reason), they must be within the Little Snitch Rules I have. There is also the possibility that there is no call, but a setting that keep telling my machine to use the modem. The silence online is an indication of that there are calls, but when I'm online I keep the modem turned off in Network, because Safari and other apps for some reason goes there instead of going to the only live connection, so it's possible whatever is calling only wants to use the modem. This is likely because the modem is at the top of the network connections list?

Re: MCE Wallstreet optical EBM
I'd buy one or more. The major difficulty I see is sourcing the connector; it's a Foxconn part that was discontinued years ago.

Blank disks not recognized
Aloha Group! My first post although I've been lurking for quite a while and have learned loads. Tried my local user group, but so far no solution. This is a new problem for me -- I've never seen it before. Whenever I insert a blank disk in my PowerBook (Pismo) or in my external QueFire burner, it is not recognized. Tried three different blanks, and none showed up in Finder or anywhere. But when I inserted the same disk in my iMac G4 (Manapua), it pops right up with a message asking what to do with it. Things I've already tried: checking the CD/DVD System Preferences, Repairing Permissions, restarting, and logging on as another user. CDs with information on them are readily recognized. And when I tried using Disk Utility to make a disk image out of the disk I want to copy, the program makes the requested disk image, but then the Burn icon is grayed out! What is going on here? My system looks like this: PowerBook G3 400 576 MB memory 40 MB internal HD 160 MB external HD Matsushita internal CD/DVD drive QueFire External Cd-RW drive External monitor and keyboard Airport network System 10.3.8 (Imac is still running Jaguar) Thanks, Cheryl P.S.

Hi Cheryl, I am having exactly the same problem with my G4 Al PB. It is not reading blank disks that my friend's PB is able to read instantly. This only started happening for me recently and I called Applecare. I have not been able to figure out why it suddenly started doing this as it was working perfectly before. I have tried all the things you have - i.e. repair permissions, checking preferences etc and went through all of that again with the Applecare tech before they agreed it was probably a hardware problem. I won't know until I get it in for them to check over but have been sick for the past couple of weeks so haven't been able to get it down there yet. It is possible you have a hardware problem but it is quite possible we are both unaware of some other sort of solution. Amber -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
