Re: Undeliverable mail: puzzing redirects
I ran into this exact problem. What I found out was that I had incompatable fonts installed in my system. I had to boot Font Book and remove all third party fonts. These fonts not only bounced my emails, but also made Safari do some crazy things. If you haven't installed/downloaded any fonts at all, then it's something else. Hope this helps, Zoltan On Jun 6, 2005, at 11:22 PM, William Webster wrote: Listen, I wrote these goddam emails on my own iBook.

Re: Tibook display pinout

Nice idea, but from what I know not practical. Every LCD variant requires a specific driver set (controller) - hardware _and_ firmware. Even closely similar LCD panels may need a separate firmware, and an oddball panel like that of the TiBook likely would require custom programming. So you'd need an appropriate LVDS hardware driver plus the programming to get the HW to drive the TiBook LCD. Neither is cheap (so far anyway.) google - lvds lcd controller I'll gladly be proved wrong, but having participated in a considerable amount of discussion on this very topic, I've yet to see a reasonable and cheap solution.

Replacement power adapter recommendations?
I'm looking at replacing a dying iBook G3 dual USB's power adpater and wondered if anyone had any recommendations. Macsales.com has a number of models, and I suppose I'm specifically looking for any reasons not to get the cheapest they've got: http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Micro%20Accessories/ACADPTG4/ Macally, a name I've at least heard of, has one there for $40, but it's only 40 Watts and even has a message in the description that it'll be a slow charger: http://eshop.macsales.com/item/MacAlly/PSAC4/ Still, there's something to be said for knowing who is making your product, I suppose, which is part of the reason I'd rather not go to eBay (I've gotten some questionable stuff from there -- and some great deals, of course!). The iAdapter 2 looks the nicest, but at $55, likely way too much for me to fork out if I've got a good $35 option. Anyhow, anyone have any experience with these, on an iBook or another model?

Pismo Safari Mail problem
Scott wrote: Mike, As routine maintenance? I am just curious, what needs maintenance in OS X? I used some of those maintenance programs with Jaguar a couple years ago and found they did more harm than good. I did not have any problem in the first place, I just used the programs because I fell for the sales pitch and didn't know better. Anyway, they messed things up more than they fixed anything. So I never used them again. I've never had any problems in OS X. All I've heard and read about OS X is that those maintenance programs are unnecessary and from my experience that is true. So my suggestion is don't even use those programs. OS X is pretty good at taking care of itself. Scott It is good you have not had problems. I have had problems occasionally. For example, files on my desktop having the wrong label. When that sort of thing happens, I run Cocktail to clear caches and repair permissions, and I run DiskWarrior. If it finds the directory is messed up, I let it replace the directory. That usually helps. What surprised me about the current problem is that DiskWarrior and the other programs didn't help. Laurent says it is a file corruption problem. Reinstalling the system cured it. Mike -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: Replacement power adapter recommendations?
Pull it out of the center and Radio Shack had a replacement for mine, and I believe Dell also sells the same cord that looks like Mickey Mouse. If you are talking about the cord that goes from the supply to the computer, you have to crack the case to replace it, but that too is fairly easy. Also, if you don't wind up the cord into the Yo Yo, it will never break, as that is the cause of 95% of all the issues with this power supply. Electronic supply stores have those plugs and all you have to do it solder the wires where they were on the original. Only had to do that once on my daughters Laptop, when she didn't listen to my advice about winding the cord up, both of mine have never been a problem. Tom Oh?

Pismo memory ? and dead machine ?
Pismo has been running great.But with only 192 MB of RAM was over due for more . Bought 2 -256 MB chips online (ebay) from a Power book parts place I'd heard of. Stated it was 1 in low Profile RAM could be used in either slot . It is in fact 1 1/4 in RAM . No big deal if that size will work in both slots? OWC sells 1in low profile fits both slots , 1 1/4 in low profile no mention of working in lower slot and 2 in high profile (top slot only) I put the new RAM in one in each slot and the Pismo refused to boot . I finally put the old RAM back in (bottom slot RAM is 1 in) and the machine is still dead :-( The only odd thing I did was by mistake I removed the heat sink from the CPU . I didn't realize the heat sink and cpu card would lift out as one piece. I put back together carefully and put a very small amount of thermal grease on the cpu. I have lots of experience with desktop machines and have replaced cpu's and you name it in them. This is really my first Power book. Any ideas? I don't have a clue what to look for. It all looks good to me. thanks Will S -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

I know that it is scary but you really have to push hard to make sure it is properly seated. Try to apply pressure in the lower right corner because that's where the connector to the motherboard is. -Laurent. -- Laurent Daudelin AIM/iChat: LaurentDaudelinhttp://nemesys.dyndns.org Logiciels Nemesys Software mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] flowchart n.: [techspeak] An archaic form of visual control-flow specification employing arrows and 'speech balloons' of various shapes.
