 Subject: Re: Help with drivers
 
 I have looked all over USR sites for a driver for a 56K PCMCIA modem model
 XJ/CC1560. And I have tried all over for a driver for Farallon PCMCIA
 network card. I have tried the patch that was listed on here the other day.
 Nothing works on either of them. Can anybody suggest something else. I want
 to use them in a 1400C
 Thanks

 Not true.  PowerBook 5300's catching fire was a wide=spread problem with
 production machines, and a serious issue, necessitating the Apple REA
 program, under which some folks to this day are still sending their units in
 for retro-fitting.

Not the case, the REA was to cover other specific problems, plastics, screen
cables, motherboard power socket.

And the REA is over.

For the modem, most scripts work for most modems. Pick a usr one, and 
try it. If it continues to not work, it could well be a dead modem.

 Hello,
 
 I'm looking for a video converter for my PB 1400c. My machine has the

 I've been all over eBay and other sites with no success. Does anyone have a

 In lieu of not finding one, I'll be looking for a reasonably priced older AV

Not sure what you are asking for here - a video card for the 1400 - well I
have both 16 and 8 bit versions and they aren't that rare, if I've
mis-understood let me know off list.

Re: Video converter for a PB 1400c

2002-10-05 Thread Andrew Kershaw

You need a scan converter: DB-15 - RCA or something, right?  You want 
to present on a TV.  You will still need the PB1400 video out card for 
one of these to work, since it plugs into the Mac's monitor port and 
pretends a TV is a valid monitor.

Look for something like the Focus Enhancements L*TV:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItemitem=2059796869 

Or if you are looking for that 100% Apple setup, try the Apple 
Presentation System:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItemitem=2058203935

Scan converters are a dime-a-dozen on eBay.  If you use the right 
search string, you'll probably come up w/ 10 - 15 of the things.

Peace,
Drew

AV PowerMacs (was Re: Video converter for a PB 1400c)

2002-10-05 Thread Andrew Kershaw

 In lieu of not finding one, I'll be looking
 for a reasonably priced older AV PowerMac
 with AV 'out' and 'in' RCA jacks.

Ken, FYI about older AV macs:

NuBus AV class macs can't simulscan.  That is, when outputting video, 
it's either output through the AV-out _OR_ through the regular 
monitor.  One or the other, but not both at the same time.  Of course, 
if you use a dual-monitor setup using the on-board video, that might 
not be a problem for you...

The Power Mac 8500 is the same way.

I don't know about the 7500/7600, but I'd guess they behave the same 
as the 8500 (their more expensive sibling).  (Actually, I seem to 
recall that the 75/600 series don't have video-out at all, but I could 
be wrong).

Pretty sure the Performa (5xxx/6xxx) line doesn't have video-out 
either.

OTOH, the 8600 and Power Mac G3/AV can simulscan.  

Just in case you were still thinking about getting an AV Mac...

I've got two - a 6100AV and a G3 MT/AV.  I LOVE the video 
functionality of both, and the G3's RCA audio-out is pretty useful in 
a mid-range Hi-Fi system for digital audio playback.

Peace,
Drew

pb 1400c showing 100MHz

2002-10-05 Thread Travis Glaab

I've recently purchased a 1400c, and am trying to adapt it to my humble
needs.

I had assumed it was a 117mhz, but the Apple System Profiler is reporting a
603ev @ 100MHz.

Does is still qualify as a 117?

Is this going to give me any trouble as I look to upgrade it(accelerator
card, RAM, or otherwise)?

2002-10-05 Thread alan_oneil

ok, now don't get mad at me. here's another nonrelated 
(well, sort of) question for everyone (especially 
applescript or program savvy) out there.

I know it is common sense that you need system 7 and 
4MB of ram in order to browse the web. what i want to 
know is if anyone has ever seen a remote control 
program for macs that will allow you to control a 
server's desktop and, obviously, run remote programs 
(ie netscape) on that server, only using your mac as a 
dumb terminal to display a (probably slow-refresh) 
screenschot of the server's screen? something like vnc?

Or if there is a way to make an applescript on the host 
server to listen for any remote commands (ie something 
like go to www.lowendmac.com or whatever that would 
be in applescript [i'm no programmer]) and do them in 
netscape, then save the result as a teachtext file 
which could be accessed remotely via your dumb 
sys6 terminal. anyone know if this is feasible idea?

oh, by the way, i think it should be able to do all 
this with the lightning-fast speed of localtalk, all of 
around 200kbps (wow!)
please reply off list as this is not really pb-related.

thanks a lot you guys

alan

I'm not familiar with vnc but I do know of a program called Timbuktu 
http://www.timbuktupro.com distributed by Netopia. You'd have to look 
at older versions to run on older Macs but it does fill the bill as 
you requested. It's easy to set up and runs well even on older Macs. 
I control my server with my PowerBook G3 Series (Lombard) but I used 
to use a PowerBook 1400c (not for surfing though).
