The SSD hack works just fine under Tiger.

I have been offered a 1GHz PowerBook G4 12" Alu
and it has damage to the casing which means repair
and RESPRAY!!  And it won't be silver.   :o)

Re: 12" iBook (new) - external monitor resolution ?

[Ben Dyer]

Screen Spanning Doctor 
(http://www.rutemoeller.com/mp/ibook/ibook_e.html) works on all 
Radeon-based iBooks and eMacs, including the latest models (it also 
works on the iMac G4 thru G5). I have had it installed on my iBook 
G4/933 since the day I got it, and it works flawlessly.

Presumably, the iBook supports much the same resolutions as the Mac 
mini does with VGA -- up to 1920x1080.

Cheers,
Ben

It's written right there at http://www.apple.com/ibook/specs.html and I 
personally thought it's one of the most-known differences between iBook 
and PowerBook lines...

although I think there may be a hack that allows it
(at least on some models.)

On my iBook I can only do mirroring, at 1024x768 or less.  This is a 
current model 14" iBook.
NOT as mirror, as an extended desktop.

AFAIK the iBooks don't support desktop spanning, although I think there
may be a hack that allows it (at least on some models.)  I think you
have to buy a PowerBook to do desktop spanning.

Thats correct. I just bought the new ibook. The oinly thing is that you 
need a min. of 10.3.5 OS to boot. That means that Norton & Disk Warrior 
won't boot because they have OSX 10.3.2.

12" iBook (new) - external monitor resolution ?

[Larry le Mac]

I am thinking of buying a brand new iBook when it comes with
Tiger (saves me buying it seperately), though I have a question:
If I connect an external TFT screen, not as mirror but expanded
desktop, what resolution can the iBook 12" 32MB VRAM go up to
on that screen ?
