Lombard running hot/Pismo also

2005-12-16 Thread Paul K. Dezendorf
I had concerns about heat with a Pismo. I solved that problem by 
raising the Pismo up and also gaining more traction.


I found some large rubber bumpers (maybe an inch and a quarter square 
and half an inch high) - the same ones as used under objects placed on 
wooden tables - like the little ones used to keep paintings from 
scratching the wall.


I put 11 of them under the Pismo - four in front, four in back and 
three in the center - roughly following the internal structural 
supports.


The machine doesn't slide an inch (11 bumpers in a small area is a lot 
of friction), there is plenty of airspace underneath, and I've had them 
on for three years without replacement.


My two sons in Mac-related work wince when they see it - but I think it 
works.


Paul

Re: Lombard running hot/Pismo also

2005-12-16 Thread Caleb Cupples
My final solution was to pull the rubber pads off a monitor stand I had 
lying around. Mine are about 1/2 inch high and about an inch wide. I 
also wince when I look at it, but then I remember the cooling effects.


Thanks for all the help, everyone.

Lombard memory

2005-12-16 Thread B.L.
Hello there fellow G-Bookies
I have information that I need confirmed regarding the ram in the 
Lombard. I know there are two memory slots, I also know that the Lombard 
can take up to 512mb of ram. I also know or think I know that one of the 
ram sticks must be low profile in order to work in the Lombard. Am I 
correct in this knowledge. And if not then would someone on the list 
please enlighten me. If I am correct then would someone on the list 
please enlighten me as to which slot takes the low profile ram stick.
Thank you for all your assistance and information.

Re: Lombard memory

2005-12-16 Thread Caleb Cupples
Yes, there are two slots. One does have to be low profile, because the 
lower slot is located underneath the processor daughtercard.


Hope this helps.

Re: USB2 for Pismo - use a PCI Card?

2005-12-16 Thread Zoltan Batiz

Hello List,

Is there a PCI Card out there for a USB2 port that
works with a Pismo?  Are there any other options for
adding USB2 to a Pismo?

Thanks,

Barry




Barry,

I just use a standard PCMCIA card adapter which I acquired on eBay for 
under $20.00.  It works great with my iPod 30 gig video.  (I'm assuming 
that's what you want it for).  I'm running 10.3.9 on my Pismo and 1 gig 
RAM.

Re: USB2 for Pismo - use a PCMCIA Card?

2005-12-16 Thread Barry Muller
Zoltan et al.,

Thanks for the tips.  Its nice to see that there is a
cheap solution for this issue.  

Actually I need the card for a Canoscan 8400F that
purchased and then saw the spec for USB 2.0.  I'd
rather attach the scanner to my 1 GHz eMac, but looks
like I'm out of luck there as it only has Firewire and
USB 1.1 - and, as far as I can tell, no options for
rigging a USB 2 device up to it.

Zoltan, why do you use USB 2 instead of a Firewire
port to connect your Pismo to your iPod?

Re: USB2 for Pismo - use a PCMCIA Card?

2005-12-16 Thread Caleb Cupples
Allow me to answer that question. Apple dropped Firewire support with 
the 5G, or Video iPod, so Zoltan can't use Firewire with it.


Hope this helps,
Caleb

P.S. I use the USB 1 ports on the back of my Lombard to sync my 5G and 
I don't have any trouble.

Intel Macs (Was USB2 for Pismo - Use a PCMCIA Card?)

2005-12-16 Thread Caleb Cupples
Well, to be honest, I'm looking forward to the new Intel PowerBooks, 
just because I think Apple is making a good move. I love the PowerPC, 
but the x86 hardware runs cooler than the G4 or G5. The only reason I 
don't have one is because I prefer the Mac experience.

Re: Intel Macs (Was USB2 for Pismo - Use a PCMCIA Card?)

2005-12-16 Thread Caleb Cupples
I should clarify that my G3 runs cooler than any of my PC notebooks 
have, but the G4 is just plain hot, and not only in the styling 
department. Ask anyone who has used a TiBook or an AlBook for any 
length of time. Plus, the G5 has to have water cooling to run at a 
decent temperature. I honestly think that Apple on x86 is the right 
move, but I just hope it's smoother than the 68K to PPC transition. As 
an Apple fan, I'll remain loyal for a long time, however. I have faith 
in Apple's quality, which is why I'm waiting to go Intel with Apple.

Pismo start up problem

2005-12-16 Thread James Sanderson

Hi,

I just tried to install additional memory into a Pismo I just got. It  
was working fine before I tried to add memory to the machine.  When I  
tried to start up after putting  the memory in the slots,  I got a  
beep.  I tried again and got the same thing.  Figuring the problem  
was the new memory, I replaced the original memory and started up  
again.  I got the chime, but now the computer cannot find a start-up  
volume.  Tried resetting the PRAM a few times without luck.  Started  
up and went to openfirmware, reset the nvram successfully as the  
machine restarted.  But it still can't find a start-up volume.   
Decided to try to start-up from the Tiger DVD, still no luck.  Any  
suggestions?


Jim Sanderson

Re: Intel Macs (Was USB2 for Pismo - Use a PCMCIA Card?)

2005-12-16 Thread david
Not all G5 PowerMacs are water cooled - though that may have changed  
with the dual core machines. Actually my G5 dualie runs cooler than  
my Pentium machine (judged both by reported processor temps and the  
heat from the fans and the fans on my dualie almost run more than the  
lowest speed.) My aluminum PowerBook does run a good deal warmer than  
the Centrino notebook I have at work. However, before getting the  
Centrino machine I had a P4 notebook that ran just as hot.


What I'm looking forward to is a Mac notebook that gets more than 2  
hours from battery. The only thing I like about my Acer notebook is  
the fact that I get just over 5 hours use of it before having to swap  
batteries.

Re: Intel Macs (Was USB2 for Pismo - Use a PCMCIA Card?)

2005-12-16 Thread Caleb Cupples
I didn't know about the air-cooled G5. However, I do remember the G3 
Lombard and Pismo managing extraordinary battery life on one or two 
batteries. Then again, I'll be using my Lombard through the end of High 
School, so there. I'll have to check real-world life on mine, but I'm 
sure it'll keep up with a Centrino on battery life with a new one..
