Re: ot noise canceling/isolating headsets
I just purchased the etymotic 6i's and was very disapointed in them. I could never get good bass using either type of tips.

Re: WiFi
I guess the responses to my post sum up the the core question. Which card brands will work BOTH under OS9 and OSX?

Problem with Wallstreet HD install
Decided today to try to get a little more life out of the old Wallstreet by putting in a new hd. I had a 30g Hitachi i bought six months ago and stuck it in. Holding down the C key I tried to boot to the 10.2 disk, but only got the flashing question mark. This made no sense so I tried resetting pram, power manager, tried an external keyboard, used a zip with 9.1 on it, and diskwarrior but no luck. Thinking I must have damaged something, I took the new drive out and replaced the old. It started up and I was able to boot the 10.2 disk. Put the new drive in an enclosure, hooked it up to my G4 and formatted and partioned it. Back into the Wallstreet and the same problem. I have installed a number of drives over the years, but this has me stumped. Its got to be something simple I'm overlooking - a real forehead smacker.

Re: WiFi
I guess the responses to my post sum up the the core question. Which card brands will work BOTH under OS9 and OSX? I'm very impressed with the AeroCard Plus from MacSense. Comes with drivers for both OS'es, and seems to have a somewhat stronger reception than the Orinoco Gold in my Wallstreet. Gene, a.k.a.

12 Powerbook as external DVD player for Television
Hi, It seems as if this ought to be easy but I'm confused. What specific parts/cables to I need to hook my Powerbook up to a television so that I can play DVDs (commercial) and see/hear them on the television? The KB articles I've dug up are vague. I have an Apple Video Adapter but I don't know if it's the right one. I don't know if I originally bought it for my iBook. I found the following in a KB article: With the release of the PowerBook G4 (12-inch), Apple has revised the Apple Video Adapter. This Apple Video Adapter looks similar to the earlier Apple Video Adapter. The later Apple Video Adapter model number is M9109, while the earlier Apple Video Adapter model number is M8734. Apple will no longer sell the earlier Apple Video Adapter. However, there is no model number on the one I have. I don't know what the difference is. Given that I have the right one, what do I do next? What is a composite video port? If I use and S-Video cable, do I still need to do something else to get the sound to the television? 12 Powerbook 1.5gHz, SuperDrive Thanks, Meg -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: 12 Powerbook as external DVD player for Television
Thanks for the very clear explanation. I believe that I have the appropriate cables. But the one thing that still isn't clear is do I have the correct video adapter? Do you know if there's a way to tell? With the release of the PowerBook G4 (12-inch), Apple has revised the Apple Video Adapter. This Apple Video Adapter looks similar to the earlier Apple Video Adapter. The later Apple Video Adapter model number is M9109, while the earlier Apple Video Adapter model number is M8734. Apple will no longer sell the earlier Apple Video Adapter. They look the same in the picture.

Wallstreet issues
Has anyone figured out a way to get the fan on a Wallstreet to actually run during operations ? The WS seems to run pretty how with either the G3/300 or a G4/466. On a separate note, I am having some trouble with my new G4/466 upgrade from Daystar. I noticed after running a few minutes under OS X 10.3.9, the unit would lock up the first time it went to sleep. Under OS 9.2.2, the unit would lock up within 60 seconds of booting. This did not appear to be a heat issue. After installing the XLR8 software, and using the write through cache setting, the lockups under OS X stopped and the unit runs fine in X. I did the same for OS 9.2.2, and it didnt improve anything. I tried an entirely different hard drive with 9.2.2 on it, and the same lock up occurred. I made sure to enable power conservation under both OS versions. it also doesnt seem to be RAM related. This appears to be some sort of software issue with OS 9 and a G4. Has anyone run across this type of problem before ? thanks, Mad Dog -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Has anyone run across this type of problem before ? Only when I used an old TravelStar HD. It would do exactly as you describe. Doubt this is a software issue.

Re: Problem with Wallstreet HD install
I would try to boot into 9.2.1 first and then partition the hard drive with the 8 gig partition and then install OS X this should work fine Shaack Ben Woodard wrote: Decided today to try to get a little more life out of the old Wallstreet by putting in a new hd. I had a 30g Hitachi i bought six months ago and stuck it in. Holding down the C key I tried to boot to the 10.2 disk, but only got the flashing question mark. This made no sense so I tried resetting pram, power manager, tried an external keyboard, used a zip with 9.1 on it, and diskwarrior but no luck. Thinking I must have damaged something, I took the new drive out and replaced the old. It started up and I was able to boot the 10.2 disk. Put the new drive in an enclosure, hooked it up to my G4 and formatted and partioned it. Back into the Wallstreet and the same problem. I have installed a number of drives over the years, but this has me stumped. Its got to be something simple I'm overlooking - a real forehead smacker. Could someone please tell me what I'm missing here? __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
