Re: Wi-fi card for OS X on Wallstreet?
I used a Buffallo card with my WallStreet. Always worked fine, I made use of the IOXperts driver which ran the card. Faultless performance and a decent range and it worked well with external aerials as well.

Re: Limewire
As I see it Limewire is only as shady as the individuals motivations for using it. Yes it can be used to download illegal music and the like but it can also be used for perfectly legitimate purposes, such as patch downloads for older software titles and the like and non copyrighted images. There is also the ability for creative users to share stuff they have created themselves etc. I personally find it the best of the bunch in terms of P2P clients.

Re: Lombard freeze was: replaced HD no modem
Isn't there a reset button on the Lombard, I think its located with the ports at the back (I've never used a Lombard, my WallStreet was similar but it was a key combo to do a heavy reset). Hold the reset button in for ten seconds and then see what happens. Ideally I think the battery should be removed for this procedure, there should be a catch under the front of the laptop (front left) which slides forward, this should make the battery pop out (I'm basing this again on my experience with a WallStreet model but I think the principle is similar, if I'm wrong someone please step in and correct me).

Re: Lombard freeze was: replaced HD no modem
Sometimes the power management settings get a little messed up, these are to the best of my knowledge stored on a dedicated chip which looks after things like battery life and so forth. One of the consequences of the this happening can be a machine locking in sleep mode. In terms of removing the battery, flip the machine over so you are looking at the underside, I think you should see a moulded flap that you can move to pop the battery out if you need to do so.

Re: replaced HD no modem

Re: Wallstreet not behaving
You lift the keyboard and right in front of you there is a ribbon cable that I believe is something to do with power management (although I could be wrong). It's approximately where the space bar is located when the keyboard is in place and it's orange in colour. On occasion it looked like it was in place but it had become unseated slightly, I pressed it firmly back in place and all was good. Adi On 13 Feb 2005, at 01:35, Hector I.

Powerbook Wall Street 266Mhz Problems
Hi, I was wondering if anyone out there could give me a bit of advice. My old Powerbook WallStreet 266Mhz has endured something of a hard life but has always toiled away on my behalf relentlessly. However recently and without warning the hinges sheared and took out the video ribbon cable (the left hand side cable as you are facing the machine from the front). I sourced a pair of hinges and a replacement video cable at reasonable cost and set about replacing them. I was very careful in replacing the ribbon and the hinges (the ribbon is a fiddly job but I got it in place so it rested in the intended way). However when it came to booting up the machine the screen is still dead. Could it be possible that in tearing the ribbon it's possible that the screen could have been knocked out as a result. Prior to the cable getting torn, the display was perfect and never gave me a moments trouble. It seems as though there is no power to the screen whatsoever. Has anyone on the list got any ideas to something I could have disturbed during the process of stripping and rebuilding the machine. The machine still boots on an external monitor just fine, but if at all possible I would like to get the old thing back in working order. It's still my favourite Powerbook.
