Re: Dark pismo
From: Wanda K. I have got hold of a pismo that does nothing. not any thing. good power supply, push the button. nothing. where do I start. If you (or anyone else) recently opened the Pismo to add RAM or a hard drive, you might want to check whether the processor card is properly seated. And you probably want to join the G-Books list, which is the LEM list that covers G3 powerbooks and up, including your Pismo. We can handle an occasional G3 question here, but this Powerbooks list is really for pre-G3 machines. Here's the G-Books info. You might want to start by searching the archive, as this subject has probably been addressed quite often.

Cmd-Opt-P-R to reset the PM. Cmd-Opt-O-F to get into Open Firmware, and then issue a reset-all commmand, to make sure. If -P-R or -O-F don't function, you have bigger problems. I'm confused: wasn't cmd-opt-P-R the combo to reset the PRAM, or was this only on Compacts/desktops? ACFX44501, you are one of the most knowledgeable persons on this list, sorry to intervene with this question. Apologies. Opened mouth before engaged brain. Shift + Fn + Ctl + Power-on resets the Power Manager on PowerBooks. If you are having trouble with your batteries, and you are on a Lombard or later, then Open Firmware commands may be of help. Essentially, OF is a FORTH-like interpretive language, and it has a shell, of sorts. reset-all is one of the available OF words (interpreted commands). I am just beginning my new world experiences, what with the recent acquisition of an eBay Lombard/400 MHz/DVD and a local flea market BW/450 MHz/DVD. Also, a planned upgrade to 10.3.9, via 9.2.2, from 9.2.1. Advice and warning for Lombard/Pismo owners ... Although I have had VERY good results with Samsung 5,400 rpm, 8 MB cache drives in my Wallstreet II PBs, these WILL NOT work in Lombard/Pismo PBs as the Samsung drives WILL NOT throttle back from ATA-6 (nor will the newer Toshibas, either). Get a Hitachi/IBM 5K80 series, instead. The sweet spot for laptop hard drives is now at 60 GB, with Samsung drives coming in at about $85, and Hitachi/IBM drives coming in at about $90. -- PowerBooks is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
