Correct. http://landonf.bikemonkey.org/2009/05/17
Maintainer says that
``My ability to provide 10.4 support is constrained without access to

And I do completely agree that browser plug-ins are not needed at all.

Are there any open source options for decent computer aided design

boards, electronic schematics, and some machine drawings -  
available for
Linux? I keep looking and even compiling but I haven't found  
anything I can
afford.  Yeah. . there are things like Pro-Engineer which are way

KiCAD may be what you are looking for. It's available for Windows,  
Linux and,

probably via Fink or MacPorts also for Mac OS X.

http://iut-tice.ujf-grenoble.fr/kicad/ – Authors' homepage.
http://kicad.sourceforge.net/ – at SourceForge (a Wiki basically).


You may find others. Most Linux distros will have some free CAD  
applications

in their corresponding repositories. I'd look there first.

Other sources include the Open Directory, like at dmoz.org:
http://www.dmoz.org/Science/Technology/Electronics/CAD/Electronic_Design_Automation/PCB_Design/


Problem will probably be that you cannot open your MiniCAD/ 
Vectorworks files
with other CAD software. But isn't there a way to use AutoCAD DXF  
files? They

are a defacto-standard, right?

Re: Will PowerPC be forever obsolete?

Hello,
	I noticed that when I download many of the Darwin 10 source modules  
that they have the capability to build for PPC.  I have not been able  
to get xcode to compile some of the modules in PPC and have not  
figured out how to bypass the xcode lockout.  I was wondering if you  
tried compiling darwin 10 for PPC and then only run the emulator for  
MacOS proprietary software?

Re: Is a powerPC G4 really powerful?

2010-05-10 Thread Frank J . R . Hanstick

Hello,
	Which PowerPC G4?  There are several flavors.  MPC-7450,  
MPC-7441/7451, MPC-7445/7455, MPC-7447/7457, and MPC-7448.
	Motorola no long manufactures µP's.  Freescale has now taken over the  
µP production of G4's.  G5's were and still are manufactured by IBM.   
I would like to see Freescale produce a non-µController version of a  
dual e600 core (the MPC-7448 core).
	I could not run Cinebench 11.529 because it no longer supports G4's  
(although I can run the CPU test since it does support 32-bit G5; but,  
not the OpenGL).  I could not find an earlier version of Cinebench to  
test the dual 1.73 GHz MPC-7448 in my system.  Does anyone know where  
I can get an earlier version?  The rating for Geekbench is 1398.  The  
OpenMark rating of the ATI Radeon 9800 @ 1440 x 900 x 32 was 9331.

To use the Standard LEM Car Metaphor, what you did was build a semi-

For one Rosetta is a useless lump of bits to a PPC machine. It is a

Leopard, despite it's name, is very nearly a rewrite of OS X. There  
is SO much under the hood that's different.

Hello,
	You changed drives?  I would check the connectors on the drive and  
motherboard to see if they are properly seated.  I had the same  
problem when one of the connectors was improperly seated.

Forward bay? i don't think where the drive is installed matters,  
theres only one cable in there... Also already tried the reset

Sorry I got kinda confused with a G4 MDD Maybe the moving the  RAM  
around will help you can boot 9 with 128.

Re: graphics card for Quicksilver 2002

Hello,
The Quicksilver has a 340 Watt power supply.

it has dual fans with a metal plate on the front of it.

the video card requires a power supply box of at least 240w. It  
requires a power plug like the ones used on cd/dvd drives and hard  
drives.

Hello,
	Actually no.  I have a PCI Radeon 9200 and a AGP Radeon 9800 Pro  
already installed to run three displays.
	The information was just to inform on a Quicksilver power supply for  
anyone interested.

Re: Best OS for MDD

2010-04-04 Thread Frank J. R. Hanstick

Hello,
	I upgraded my QuickSilver to a Newer Technology dual 1.73 GHz PowerPC  
G4 and have little problem beyond a protection violation once in a  
while; but, that is neither here nor there.  MacOS 10.5 does not  
support classic, so I have MacOS 10.5.8 on one drive and MacOS 10.4.11  
w/ OS 9.2 on another.  The system normally boots into 10.5.  If I wish  
to use 10.4 w/ Classic, I just hold down the option key when booting.

Tiger latest.


Why does everyone want him to run a nearly obsolete OS on his Mac?  
A dual 1Ghz system will run 10.5 perfectly well.

Well, I use Classic or OS9 once in a while. I don't
believe 10.5 supports Classic.
