original driver, and the worst was that the graphics were kinda slow, so 
slow that I erased the whole HD and reinstalled Mac OS 9.2.1.
I've been very happy ever since.
You may well want to reconsider. 10.1 and 10.2 should have really been 
numbered 10.1 and 10.5, a la 8.1 and 8.5...there was that much 
difference between them.

OSX 10.2 is quite a bit faster, more stable and more compatible with 
lots of stuff than 10.1 ever was.

Mac OS X on WallStreet

2003-05-29 Thread macnifico
A few months ago I installed Mac OS X.1.5 on my WallStreet II, 266 MHz, 
256Mb, 20 Gb.
No problems, except that it doesn't support the DVD player or the USB 
and FireWire PC Cards that I have. My PC Card modem was supported only 
in v.X.1.5 with a generic driver that didn't had the speed of the 
original driver, and the worst was that the graphics were kinda slow, so 
slow that I erased the whole HD and reinstalled Mac OS 9.2.1.
I've been very happy ever since.
But IF I get another, newer PB, I want to install X.2.x.
But not on my WallStreet.
Best regards.
