Re: Energy saver problems under Jag?

2002-09-24 Thread Joe Ellis

I'm having similar problems with my Pismo Powerbook (400 MHZ). The symptoms
seem similar to yours, but also if I close the lid to force it sleep, while
the light pulses, the hard drive aparently does not go to sleep; it will
make noises like it's accessing data but I have no idea what. Has Apple had
anything to say about this?

Subject: Energy saver problems under Jag?


 Has anyone else noticed their powerbook won't sleep under the energy
 saver pref? My bronze will sleep under the sleep command, and wakes up
 without problem (faster than 10.1.5), but won't sleep if unused for any
 length of time set. The screen will blacken, but the sleep light
 doesn't pulse, and a touch of the trackpad (which won't wake a book
 from sleep) brings the screen back. A friend's Bronze has the same
 problem. It even showed up in the new TiBook in the Short Hills, NJ,
 Apple store. So far I haven't heard anyone else with this problem.
 Settings have no effect on the problem, either under AC or battery.

I'm a novice at this stuff, having just bought my old Wallstreet on 
E-Bay, but I can shutdown, sleep, etc., by pressing the start button and 
selecting what I want to do. Maybe that doesn't work on other models or 
operating systems.

J Callahan

It's been a standard since the 1400 powerbook.

The problem is the operating system and how it handles the command. I 
just officially gave up on Jag until my book gets sent in.

Recheck your Energy Saver settings.  Do you have any of the checkboxes 
marked under the Battery Power options tab?

Could it be a power manager problem that resetting will fix?

No problem here on my Pismo. It will sleep even with Entourage, which is
checking new messages every 10 minutes.
