Re: Energy saver problems under Jag?
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?

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. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: Energy saver problems under Jag?
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. Regards, J Callahan -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Maybe that doesn't work on other models or operating systems. 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. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
