Re: More wireless questions - Pismo Bronze

2004-06-18 Thread Peter Chastain
I use a D-Link DWL-122 USB adapter for wireless; it requires software 
(included of course) which it installs as a pref. pane.  It looks like 
a USB keydrive, but comes with a USB extension cord, so one can hang it 
from on high if necessary, for better reception.  I use it when I'm on 
the road (as a forester I'm on the road a lot); most Starbucks have 
pay-for wireless access, and of course there is always war-driving...

I don't need the fastest bestest gear on the block, but you-all seem to
share the same attitude of getting it working and keeping it for as 
long as
possible.

Recommendations for a Cardbus PC card that will let me use FireWire 
under
OS9. It does not have to be a speed demon, just reliable so I can 
connect
to a drive or other computer if needed.

What brand of card?
 I would prefer with dongle as to clear a wireless card I all ready 
have,
but I am open to suggestions.

What software is needed?
Thanks for all your help.

Re: Wallstreet processor mitch-match

2004-06-07 Thread Peter Chastain
George -
As I've stated, I'm using a Wallstreet 300 w/ 320MB of some generic 
brand RAM, no prob.  Running OS X.3.4 with help from XPostFacto.  I've 
been using OS X on it since it was first released, and can say with 
confidence that performance has steadily improved with each OS upgrade.
I have a 128MB RAM module from Newer that I replaced with a 256MB; 
you're welcome to it for the cost of shipping.  Can't guarantee that it 
still works, though, but if you want it I can package it in a 
static-proof pouch.  My e-mail is [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I am having all sorts of trouble getting Ram for my WS
300 MHz (perhaps a signal to forego OS X).
And this AM, my desktop refuses to work at all (8500
with NewerTech G3 300). Blue Monday!

Re: Partition with 10.2?

2004-06-06 Thread Peter Chastain
I use both FW and USB 2 cards with my XPostFacto'd Wallstreet 300 w/ 
10.3.4.  Both work great, provided I put them in the upper slot.
However, printing is broken, and VPC won't boot Win98; it has to be a 
saved image.

Do either work?
I didn't, but I don't see why one type of card should work (airport) 
and
not another. The buyer of my book plans to add USB via PCMCIA, so I'll
try and follow that.

Re: x on wallstreet

2004-06-06 Thread Peter Chastain
Nope, nothing special, outside of XPostFacto.  In fact, 10.3 was 
installed onto a freshly formatted and partitioned HDD.  Of course, I 
had to install OS 9 first, so it could boot in the first place.  OS 9 
and 10 are on different partitions, and even though my HDD is not over 
8GB, I installed 10 on the first partition, just in case.

WallStreet 300 pcmcia troubles

2004-06-05 Thread Peter Chastain
I have a Wallstreet 300 w/ 320 MB, original(?) 8GB HDD, and 10.3.4 via 
XPostFacto and 9.2.2 each on their own partition.  Regardless of which 
OS I boot into, the 'book won't recognize anything in the lower pcmcia 
slot except for the Apple DVD-Video card.  I've tried USB, FireWire and 
a mini HDD; none are recognized in the lower, although the USB and FW 
work fine when inserted into the upper (the mini HDD is type III, so 
fits only into the lower).

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
