Pismo Panasonic LCD
There I was with my brilliant Keynote presentation and eager audience. Could not get contact between Pismo and the Panasonic LCD. Cable was the the same at each end, fitted the 15 pin D connector on the back of the Pismo. I tried shutting down each, restarting each simultaneously, and then each one first, etc, etc, per help instructions, but could not get a hint of connection apart from the led on the LCD blinking briefly when I clicked on 'detect displays' in System Preferences Displays. Only gave a precis of my talk, unaided, hopefully can connect present another day. Luckily crowd was very polite, only heard one muttering of must be Apple computers. Could not find the book for the LCD, not sure it would have been in English if I had found it! Anybody know what I was doing wrong?

Re: Pismo Panasonic LCD
Sometimes projectors seem to be particular about the resolution they are trying to project; the laptop and the projector have to match. We've had some difficulties at monthly meetings getting the presenter's personal laptops to connect to our projector (a Dell labeled projector - not sure if it's LCD or DLS). All encounters here are with Windows-based laptops. I assume your Pismo works with other projectors and external monitors? Regards, Bob Eye Dallas, TX P.S.

Re: Pismo Panasonic LCD
I think I had a similar problem with my Pismo/vga to LCD projector - this one was a Sony. However, it warned me that it couldn't support it at that resolution. Did you allow it to 'detect displays'?

Re: upgrading my WallStreet
From: david [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: upgrading my wallstreet I've been meaning to fix my 250 wallstreet for some time now, i've got the sound card/power supply part to replace, i'm getting more ram to install (2 x 256), and now i'm thinking... is it worth it to buy one of those sonnet crescendo upgrades? I can't say it's been especially worthile in the 3 years I've had the G4/500 upgrade. Perhaps burning CD's is faster, but not much anything else. And I had to upgrade from OS 8.1 to 9.1 or the CPU upgrade wouldn't work (but not a bad idea anyway :-) I also found out that I had to put a . before my Iomega extension or I'd get shutdown freezes. something neither Sonnet nor Iomega knew or admitted to. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Pismo DVD/CD drive ???
Good evening Lista's, My 3rd LG (POS!!!) CD/DVD drive has gone south.. Does anyone know if the Mat unit (drive and sled) is a perfect match for the Pismo as a replacement? I am really tired of screwing around with the LG to get it working...It hast to be ejected and smacked on the table in order to get it to recognize that there is a dvd or cd in it...Once it recognizes that something is there, it works fine..but it it's a real pain to do that every time and the rest of the family is really PO'd about it... If anyone on list happens to have or knows someone that has a working complete unit, please respond off line... My son has now installed Tiger on this Pismo and it seems to be runing like a raped ape!!

Re: Wallstreet pcmcia card
I just acquired a used ADS USB 2 port USB pcmcia card ( got it to enable a USB mouse, and smart media card adapter) It came without instructions. I plugged it in to the top slot, and a little empty box showed up on the screen. I tried both an apple usb mouse and a usb card reader, but neither showed up.. Then I pushed the tiny button over it and it ejected. An hour later the Wallstreet crashed for the first time (seperate email concerning) Any help? thanks much!, Del You might have to install the USB software. I cant remember where to find it but I think its USB Extensions 1.4.1 or something like that. Thanks for the reply, I looked up Apple Support, was ready to download when I read this on the 1.4.1 page Important: Mac OS versions 9.1 and later include a later version of this software. Installing USB Adapter Card Support 1.4.1 over Mac OS 9.1, 9.2 or later could result in the USB adapter card not working. Since I am running 9.2.2 on the Wallstreet, any different suggestions to get the card working? thanks, Del And thankyou to the 2 people who wrote helping me to get my Wallstreet restarted! -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Defective iBook logicboard for trash or?
I just replaced the logicboard in my daughter's iBook. I was wondering if the old board would have any value. It is a 1GHz G4 board. The only thing that was wrong after she spilled water on it was the display. I was able to boot it in FireWire disk mode so I would think that most components are still working. So, would it be worth to put it on eBay? I was thinking that some shop with a surface mount machine might be able to do something with it.

Re: Pismo DVD/CD drive ???
In a message dated 8/30/05 9:11:21 PM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: My 3rd LG (POS!!!) CD/DVD drive has gone south.. Does anyone know if the Mat unit (drive and sled) is a perfect match for the Pismo as a replacement? The MATSHITA (Panasonic) drive in the machine is obsolete, and Panasonic is not making any more tray loading drives. Every one has been replaced by the UJ-845-B, which is a slot loader, is +/- everything, and is two-layer DVD-R-R/W. Sadly, this isn't on Apple's approved list, so you will have to use PatchBurn to support it. A perhaps better choice is the Pioneer DVR-K05, which IS supported by 10.4, but is not by 10.3 without PatchBurn. This Pioneer drive has a tray loading variant. I have both of these drives in my Lombard and Pismo, and they are fine for DVD playing and CD reading and writing, but I have yet to successfully burn a DVD with these. The fine print on these drives is they work best with an 80-wire/40-pin cable, but that is NOT the way they can be installed in a laptop, although there ARE adapters which are intended for installing these drives in Shuttle type PeeCees, and which DO support 80-wire/40-pin cables. Perhaps this is the old multiword vs DMA issue with some of the PowerPCs? Anyway, I know of no currently manufactured drive which will accept the Lombard/Pismo bezel, and the same is true of the MCE drives for the Wallstreet. The tray loading Pioneer drive (DVR-K15?) is just enough different in the bezel attachment area that is is a NO-GO. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
