Re: Battery time on a wallstreet under OSX
Gary, [EMAIL PROTECTED] said: My Install CD is 10.2.4 and I installed the upgrade to 10.2.8 from the Apple update site. When? If this is recent I would STILL reinstall with the 10.2.8 *COMBO* updater. Is this what you did or did you go 10.2.5 10.2.6 before the 10.2.8? If this is what you did I would reinstall everything including Open Firmware resets, as I said earlier. I did this Combo updating for all of the 10.2 incremental updates and never had the problems many others were talking about, including early adopters of 10.2.8 before that was reissued. It's possible you have a problem with your battery unrelated to the early battery problem of 10.2.8 and that updating somehow triggered the error. Have you also recently taken apart your machine? What other actions have you done? My battery time on my WS II remain at about 2 hours with 10.2.x and 10.3.x. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: Battery time on a wallstreet under OSX
Actually I believe I just went straight to 10.2.8 My machine was attached to the net at the time and the window popped up saying it found the various updated software for my machine and 10.2.8 was listed. I told it to install. Gary -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

You haven't installed the old wrongly build of 10.2.8. I'd do a complete reinstall with reset of PRAM and Open Firmaware resets and then use the 10.2.8 *combo* updater if I suspected the 10.2.8 had problems. I had no probs with 10.2.8 combo on my WS II. Running 10.3.3 now with the help of XPostFacto 3a14. Much better than 10.2.x. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
