Re: Pismo won't start up
Can anyone give me some other possible causes for this symptom? Okay, based on my Lombard experience, reset the PMU. It's done by holding the little button between the telephone and VGA connectors down for about ten seconds and releasing it. Then, plug 'er back in and try again.

Re: Pismo
The fastest Pismo upgrade I've heard of is a G3/800, but I'd go with a G4/500 over any G3, because of OS X being optimized for the Altivec instruction set of the G4. However, in my humble opinion, the G3/500 in the Pismo is pretty good, even after working with various G4 machines and even a G5 or two.

Otherwise, the fastest CLOCK SPEED CPU you'll get is a G3 from PowerLogix. They made 900 MHz and 1.0 GHz G3 upgrades, but as far as I can tell, they've been discontinued.

Re: Pismo problem
Wanda, I'm assuming you didn't drop it or anything of that sort. So I'm going to assume you're also changing one piece of hardware at a time and noting meticulously which went in and didn't boot up the Pismo. Assuming also you didn't mess with the RAM (hard not to with the Pismo since removing the processor card requires removal of the top slots of RAM) I would guess it may be something not seated properly like when you put everything back and didn't push down hard enough on the processor card to make a good connection with the motherboard. I've been inside my Pismo a lot and the few times it didn't boot, it was something like that. Sorry if I'm stating the obvious sometimes when 'panic' sets in, you just don't think straight. Take a break and start over. Change one component at a time. Peter On Wednesday, October 12, 2005, at 04:56AM, Wanda K. [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Pismo people.

Of course, this is topic is so completely off-topic for this list... Having said that, let me contribute to the collective delinquency! ;-) I own three Wallstreets (a 292, a 233 series II, and a 266). None of them glowed out of the box (not in the same way as a Pismo, anyway, which can be seen in a normally lit room in the daytime). A Wallstreet might faintly glow if you view it from the rear in a completely black environment, but that's only by accident. That's because the foam and mylar sheet between the backlight and the logo aren't 100% opaque (they're close to it though, maybe 95%). On one of my Wallstreets, the only modification necessary to make the logo glow was simply the removal of a mylar sticker from the backside of the logo. On the other, I needed to remove the sticker and trim back some of the foam spacer to allow the light through. I haven't bothered to make the third glow. In very bright direct sunlight with the LCD at lower backlight brightnesses, sometimes there will be a yellowish blotch in the center of the LCD where the sunlight shines through the logo more brightly than the backlight lights the LCD. Setting up some LEDs around the logo is a simple thing to do. I've investigated the possibility of moving the sleep LED to the logo (or adding a 2nd LED in addition to the primary LED) There's plenty of space between the plastic of the lid and the backlight.

Re: Pismo...upside down logo
PowerBook G3s glow. Not very brightly, but they definitely glow. Also, clamshell iBooks were supposed to glow. They decided right before production to make them not.

Re: Pismo...upside down logo
Anyone see this thread as a tad silly . . . errr, no? Hmmm . . . right then . . . I think cutting out the old logo, the new hole being a larger 'upside down' . . . err, right-side-up logo is the cleanest solution. As for the 'insert' to use in the new larger hole - I've checked all the 'Book display-back Apple logos from clamshell iBook to 17 AlBook and none are large enough to cover a WS/Lombard/Pismo's old Apple logo's outline. Everything I have from dual USB iBook and first gen TiBook up to the revs A/B 12 and 17 AlBooks are identically sized, but the clamshell's Apple is the largest of all by a small margin. Therefore, unless there's some 'Book I've overlooked, one would likely need to fabricate a new larger Apple insert for that factory look some of y'all seem to crave. How about using the Apple logo inserts from the side of a B+W form-factor desktop? Now there's a statement! Sadly, color choices are limited to blue and a couple shades of gray. Hmm, I don't have any recent Apple desktop displays, are any of those logos appropriate? Just had another (silly) thought or two . . . if one cut out the old Apple's surround as a circle, one could fab some sort of spinning/rotating thinga-ma-bob where one could turn the Apple anytime to any orientation one desired. Now how's that for a complete solution?!?! G Oo, oo, how about having it motorized somehow, so that it turns 180 degrees when you open the lid!?!!? And back again when you shut it?!?!?! Or even just constantly whirls when ever you have the lid open?!?!? Alright, nobody steal that idea, that's a winner that one is!!

Re: Pismo...upside down logo

Patience, a steady hand and a willingness to work with plastic. Draw a perfect square around the logo. Cut it out.

Re: Pismo...upside down logo
place Pismo logo side down on a good color copier copy cut out the logo with enough background color to cove the original logo treat the surface with spray acylic or laminate glue over top of old logo in any direction you want it alternative glue the botton of a snap on top of original logo glue a hammered thin piece of lead or solder wire to the back of the bottom edge of the new logo glue to of snap to the new logo copy made above lubricate top of snap with something like WD-40 snap on to top for protection from rub against other objects - glue a clear plastic or glass dome such as the glass/plastic on analog watches (from a cheap watch) over the logo/snap apparatus. if the snap is lubricated adequately and free moving, the weight (hammered thin piece of lead or solder wire) should be pulled by gravity downward keeping the logo upright with regards to the ground when opened a lightweight spring could be added underneath the logo to return it original (or desired) position when flat cost:: snap, glue, sping, cheap watch, color copy - under $10 the envy of other Pismo owners with logos that appear upside down when open ? ...but probably not price less - Original Message - From: Yersinia [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: PowerBooks powerbooks@mail.maclaunch.com Sent: Friday, May 27, 2005 9:59 AM Subject: Re: Pismo...upside down logo Howard writes, Tell them that the logo is right side up--it's all those years of using a Windows-based machine has just got them turned in the wrong direction. :) Of all the replies so far, I like this one the best, actually. ;-) However...seriously...this thread just made me take a look at my 5300c.

Re: Pismo HD question
I am considering buying the following drive from Googlegear.com because of positive reports on it that I have seen here. I am just making sure this is close to the one reported, if not the same. It is a bare drive. How problematic is that? This is the first laptop drive I have purchased so my knowledge is clearly limited: IBM Hitachi Travelstar 40GNX 20GB ATA-5 2.5in 5400 rpm mobile drive Thanks a lot. I had one that I installed into a Lombard and it worked out fine. It's a little noisier than the 4200rpm, not much, but I think I'm also more sensitive to that sort of thing.My wife's Pismo is blissfully silent with the slower drive. btw, this is a better question for the G-books list. --- JSH TiBook You're right.

Re: Pismo Problems
Drew, IIRC you may want to check the extension which loaded right after the Apple Audio Extension (or maybe the one right before). On my Pismo, sometimes it's not been the extension whose icon you see last, but the one that was in process of loading that caused the problem (or else, the extension right before AAE, and it conflicted with AAE). HTH, Jim It seems to have been AAE. Disabling it seems to have stopped those particular errors. Curiously, the problem (with the same OS) doesn't occur on my Wallstreet. As for my other problems, I think I've nailed it down to a faulty 512MB RAM module. I'll be contacting OWC later to see what can be worked out - it is supposed to have a lifetime warranty...
