Re: Internet jiggery pokery
Easiest solution is to trawl eBay for an internet router that supports connecting a modem to it. Some companies still make them, but they aren't cheap. :P Four main varieties. 1 All in one with modem, router and hub or switch. 2 Two in one with modem and router and an ethernet port. 3 Two in one with router and hub or switch and a serial port. 4 Just the router with a serial port for a modem and an ethernet port to connect to your hub or switch. Modems to connect to these must work with a PC, even if you're connecting the box to an all Mac network. I'd stay away from the few external modems that will not work at all with a Mac. USR made some PC only modems and there's a few others but I've never actually encountered any but a couple of the USR ones that won't work with Mac. = http://www.junkscience.com All the Junk that's fit to Debunk! __ Do You Yahoo!?

That's basically a bit of heat resistant fuzz glued to a bit of plastic and held against the fuser roller. Most of them in older printers and copiers were soaked in a silicone oil. Eventually the fuser cleaner gets clogged with toner and/or the oil gets used up so you have to replace the thing. Generally you should replace the fuser cleaner at each toner change or refill. It is possible to get a rebuilt print drum cartridge or in some cases you can replace just the wiper blade if the OPC drum and other parts are OK. It depends on how the thing comes apart and whether or not you need special tools to avoid damage while taking it apart. The fuser cleaner is most often easily user replaceable, generally under a lid or a flip up panel accessible after the printer or copier is opened up. Look for a HOT warning lable.

Easiest way for sure, just make sure you dont assign the same ip twice. :) Let DHCP take care of any additions to your lan. In this way you can route services to other machines and take the guess work out of changing your uplink machine.

Re: Ripping Video
--- Marten van de Kraats [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Anyone around here know how to get the contents of a video tape on a hard disk, preferably using some old Mac? I know absolutely nothing about this stuff. First off you'd need a Mac with AV or Audio Video features that include AV _input_ and the ability to actually capture the video and audio, not just the ability to run it through the Mac's monitor and speakers. Given that, you're looking at capturing at best 320x420 resolution and using old codecs because any video capture hardware built into NuBus Macs either can't handle the newer ones or software capable of using them doesn't exist to run on them. Even the high-zoot NuBus video capture cards that can do 640x480 at 30fps are limited to the older codecs because of the software thing. About the best NuBus video capture system ever was the Media 100. That puppy took two slots, used a custom breakout cable and the hardware was serialized with each copy of the software keyed to the individual board sets. So unless you get the COMPLETE Media 100 NuBus setup it's completely worthless. I think Media 100 had an upgrade discount to the PCI version if you sent them the breakout cable from your NuBus Media 100 system. I wish Media 100 would release a version of the final NuBus software that isn't locked to the hardware serial and plans for building a breakout cable. That would not cut into their current market because 99.999% of video professionals would sit around waiting for an old NuBus PowerMac and old software without all the latest and greatest FX to chew on their data. It would definately be a big PR coup for the company. :) (It would also make all those sets of NuBus Media 100 boards minus cables and software suddenly worth a few dollars!) On the cheaper end there were some other NuBus video capture cards but I think they're mostly restricted to working with System 7.1 through 7.5.5. Radius made some, so did Cinepack but they dumped the hardware end to concentrate on codec development. Does the LEM videocard list have anything on NuBus video capture products? At any rate you aren't going to be using DivX or MPEG2 or MPEG4 on any NuBus Mac. And it would be very tedious going on anything pre G3 or even the sub 400Mhz G3 range, though you _can_ install a nice PCI capture card and OS 9.x.x on any PCI Mac with a 603/604 and make things work. If you have only one or a few tapes to convert, your best bet is to have some shop do the capture and either put it on DV tape or some DVD recordable that will playback in a normal DVD-ROM or DVD player. If you have a big box of tapes to do then it's worth spending the money for a decently fast Mac (or PC) with a 60+ gig drive and a DVD recorder. (I've seen them hit the $200 mark recently!!!) Or you can go the DivX/MPEG4 route and use plain old CD-R. I've seen some DVD rips to DivX on CD-R that look thisclose in quality to the original. 640x480 resolution is all you really need for playback on a TV. Some people like to use 800x600 for PAL TV but the native resolution for DVD is something like 720x480 for all the major TV systems. DVD playback on a computer doesn't care if its for NTSC, PAL, SEACAM or whatever and usually it's possible to convert the video and shunt it to a composite or S-Video or SCART (common in europe) analog output to display on a TV or record on a VCR wherever you are in the world. On the PC side, the market of freeware utils for ripping, encoding, converting, disabling Macrovision etc, etc is HUGE. There's an app called DVDx that can rip and compress a DVD faster than realtime on an Athlon XP or Pentium 4. It can also do other video files so it's not just for ripping DVD movies. I don't know what's out there for the Mac that doesn't cost an arm and a leg. There just doesn't appear to be much interest in non professional video software for Macs. For a starter, pop this search into dogpile.com +DivX +Macintosh And you'll find what's out there for use with the DivX codec. Note that DivX has nothing to do with DivX the scheme for renting encrypted DVDs that you'd pay for then get to watch as much as you wanted for 24 or 48 hours, then you'd have to pay again or upgrade the Disc to gold which allowed unlimited playing. (That is, unlimited until the DivX scam when belly up and they'll be shutting down their server soon if not already, which will turn all DivX discs into instant coasters.) So if you want to be _cheap_ AND up to date with video, get a PC box. If you want to do this with a Mac, contact someone who specializes in video capture, encoding etc with Macs. :) If you decide to go PC on this project, start with www.divx.com and get their DivX 5.0 codec. = http://www.junkscience.com All the Junk that's fit to Debunk! __ Do You Yahoo!?

Re: auto painting macs-- is he that good?

(here's the demo page, so you can all go look at the work, for reference:) http://www.applefritter.com/hacks/mercury/index.html the answer is, yes, chris, he's *that* good. he has an auto body shop of his own. he brings mercedes' and lexus' [mercedii and lexii?} over to our back yard and sets up his compressor and his mask and paint and brings these poor gouged, wounded creatures back to their sleek, beverly hills fine shine with spray and hand rubbing until they look like they just came off the showroom floor again. i've watched him work and asked him one day if he could repaint my bike frame, and he said sure, any color i wanted..then the bike disappeared. but on a further day, he said he could pretty much paint anything i wanted. i was out there with a can of spray paint one night, retouching a rusted and flaking case of a computer my kid found, and he came walking thru on some other errand and saw me, and paused to remind me he could do that for me on the compressor, if i didn;t want to keep having to buy cans of spray paint. so the reminder comes back around, every so often, and I'm incubating ideas for him. my buddy fell into the dream with me, earlier today, and got himself all excited with ideas of custom painting old macs and pc cases as a novelty he could do down on the beach boardwalk. now he's off ruminating on acrylics and textures, and patterns and where to get raw materials and how to get the word out so people will come look. he viewed the skinz site with me, and was irritated with what he felt was the tameness and predictability of it. he's thinking much more passionate, dark, intense expressions. so maybe we've hit on a new pastime. arting up old macs. why the hell not? if they're out of warrantee and saved from the trash, who's to say we can't? this is venice! this is expected, here. and macs are for the right brained, creative types, no? janet, reporting live from bohemia-by-the-sea http://community.webtv.net/mensabrains/BADCODE -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

*that* network question
OK, nobody seems to get my drift so I obviously explained it about as well Donald Rumsfeld ;). Heres what I have at the moment: 4 machines all using TCP/IP, 3 using OT, 1 using OS X. All machines have static IPs assigned using the DHCP module in IPNR All machines have a DNS name assigned through Mac DNS All Machines are also setup to share via AppleTalk All Machines talk fine over both AppleTalk and TCP/IP. The only modem is attached (built-into) my iBook I dial up to my ISP through this modem. DNS DHCP are administered from my LCIII, which runs MacDNS and IPNR *already*. This machine runs 24/7 and never is disconnected but will probably be replaced by my IIci when I get it as the IIci has the option of 2 NICs. When I am at University I use my friends Linux server, which routes from a Windows XP machine connected to ADSL (which Is how I know it can be done), to do the above instead as it's already set up, I only set up DNS, DHCP and stuff on my network at home to fill the gap while I'm not at Uni, but I graduate in June so I will need it permanently after that. I could buy a modem for my LCIII (a serial 56k that works shouldn't be *that* hard to find right?) or the IIci I am buying (same thing really). On the other hand I could work out how to do the following: Using IPNSX I can broadcast the Internet connection over the network with the following conditions: DNS and Router for all TCP/IP clients have to be set to the iBook.

Re: Internet jiggery pokery
I've used DHCP to dynamically assign IPs on a LAN, but I much prefer using all static IPs then going through a router, either a dedicated router box or a computer running internet routing software to bring the internet to the LAN. That way I know who's whom on the LAN and it's easy to troubleshoot with pings and route traces. I use DHCP for convenience more than anything. I use DNS to identify the machines clearly, I hat having to remember which machine has which IP. I can't afford a router. I have several Macs so I'll use those instead, they are substantially cheaper and I have the stuff I need already for the most part :). Using Win2K or XP Pro it's easy to turn on or off internet sharing on any TCP/IP connection. I don't think you even have to reboot. How does internet sharing (took Apple long enough) do in OSX? It's not yet in OS X. I am using a free beta software from Sustworks. It does the job, crashes on occasions but is, as a result, just as good as Windows XP ;). I think it is expected from Apple in 10.2, it's not like it's hard if you wrote the OS. -- Mark Benson Vintage Macs List Nanny aka silicon_valley_pirate_uk (Yahoo!

Heres what I have at the moment: 4 machines all using TCP/IP, 3 using OT, 1 using OS X.

The only modem is attached (built-into) my iBook I dial up to my ISP through this modem. DNS DHCP are administered from my LCIII, which runs MacDNS and IPNR *already*. This machine runs 24/7 and never is disconnected but will probably be replaced by my IIci when I get it as the IIci has the option of 2 NICs. When I am at University I use my friends Linux server, which routes from a Windows XP machine connected to ADSL (which Is how I know it can be done), to do the above instead as it's already set up, I only set up DNS, DHCP and stuff on my network at home to fill the gap while I'm not at Uni, but I graduate in June so I will need it permanently after that. I could buy a modem for my LCIII (a serial 56k that works shouldn't be *that* hard to find right?) or the IIci I am buying (same thing really). On the other hand I could work out how to do the following: Using IPNSX I can broadcast the Internet connection over the network with the following conditions: DNS and Router for all TCP/IP clients have to be set to the iBook.

Mark, OK, let me see if I understand this correctly: 1- You have a bunch of LocalTalk-only Macs 2- You use IPNetRouter 68k to route IP to said LocalTalk Macs 3a- In certain situations, you use a Windows box to route from LocalTalk to Internet (via IPNR) 3b- In other situations, you use an iBook running IPNetShareX to route from LocalTalk to Internet (via IPNR) Perhaps we should start with a question: What is your end goal? I would guess that it is allowing your LocalTalk machines Internet access no matter how they are connected -- i.e. via Windows or via OS X. Since you have all of your machines already configured to access Internet through IPNR, there's no need to reconfigure ALL OF THOSE. Simply tell IPNR that its default route is your OS X box instead of the Windows NT box. Also, there's no need to reconfigure your machines to use your iBook as DNS. Either run a caching DNS server on any one of them (and don't change which one) or tell them to use ANY DNS server on Internet. ANY one. It doesn't matter which. Just remember: the farther away the DNS server is from your machines, the longer it will take to resolve names. But... ANY one will work. Unless your ISP blocks outbound DNS queries, but that's *highly* unlikely. I think what you have is a very workable situation, but that you're likely complicating it. As I said a moment ago, we should probably start by answering the question What is your end goal? Eagle -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Mark Benson wrote: Easiest way for sure, just make sure you dont assign the same ip twice. :) Let DHCP take care of any additions to your lan. This is why I use it, it's much less stress. So your base 4 machines all have static addresses assigned by you on your intranet. The ibook on dialup would have a second subnet (not the right word?) that gets its dynamic address assigned by your isp. Since you run IPNR you can route the traffic from internet to your intranet. As you assigned your ip addresses on all your machines manually, the DHCP module works fine with your intranet and you can plug other machines in and be given a dhcp address (dynamic) by IPNR. As you know the static addresses of your base machines, configuring them to run services, whether the ibook or the LCIII is the uplink, serving should be easy. If you said yes to these then I dont understand your actual problem. sorry. I should think so. I take it by the below comment I *am* looking at a 2 sub-net system then Yes you are running 2 subnets(?). Do it properly and IPNR on the LCIII should be able to serve over the modem/printer port to a nic-less classic while the the ibook is doing the dialup. You could run another classic server along side the LCIII. :-) If the ibook had the ports to localtalk the classic you could do it that way using a three sub-net config. Good thing the classics only browsing text or you would not be happy with the speed on dialup. A old pc with 2 nics and a flavor of linux can be handy also. Sorry, haven't been on dialup for sooo long I forgot. ;) You should know what I meant.

Re: Personal LWntr printing on LC475, CCII
From: mart [EMAIL PROTECTED] If I'm not mistaken, The NTR version of the PLW has a slider control to adjust the amount of toner (Regular PLW's don't have it). Open the engine room door; it should be located just above the toner cartridge. Thanks, Mart. It actually reduced the greyness of the page, but didn't get rid of it. It's nice to know that the slider control is there though. :) I guess I have to keep a lookout for a new toner cartridge, like the fixyourownprinter.com guy (Moe) suggested. Funny that they don't sell them. FWIW, the fuser tested okay with an ohm meter when it cooled down. I still suspect the spongy black roller below the fuser assembly because is keeps getting filled with toner dust. Someone pointed out (JEff G.?, Greg E.?) that they might need replacing. I got this at a bargain and just can't afford to pour anymore into it unless I get another one to play with. Thank you all for your help.

Re: Ripping Video
The heatsink is to transfer the heat from the CPU to the air, and the fan moves the air away and replaces it with cooler air. The heat transfer is limited by the 'narrowest' part of the system. If the heat can't get out of the chip it would soon look like a dim light bulb. If the air can't get out of the case it will soon be like a small oven, and things will fail. Heat is the enemy. Some of the Windoze machines have fans mounted on the chip heatsink itself, as well as a fan to cool the box! Some even have Peltier devices mounted on the chip, a very inefficient method, but it works. Keep those fuzz bunnies clear of the fan opening ;-) Is it warm in here or is it just me?

Re: Ripping Video
I think the IIci/Q700 has the inverse problem to the Quadra 8xx and 8x00 Macs. Not so good (although, like the SE/30 is has it's charms ;) ) outside, roomy and well made inside. Anyone who has use a mighty 8 will know it's not a nice case to work in but it looks coool :). The classic Mac case I most despise above all else is one they used for the Performa 630 and others like it.

Re: my internet problem
That may all be true, but it won't improve the speed of file serving with system 7. Yes but in that case System 6 won't do much for it either because it ultimately depends on the hardware, a you rightly say. A 68k Mac struggles to saturate 10baseT anyway (unless it's a late Quadra, that can saturate it just) neither my SE/30 or my LCIII(475) come close. System 6 makes a whole lot of difference. You won't believe how much better it is than system 7 at I/O stuff. It is a totally superior server OS. I can't help it. It is just the truth. System 7 is very inefficient. Mmmm... We are not talking about a file server here. We are obviously talking about some routing device In that case you are better of with system 7.1 or higher indeed. Erm, he whole internet thing in the title was a minor give away wasn't it ;). Yep, but in the text you were constantly talking about a server. The machine you are using isn't a server. It is a Mac running a software router. I said: system 7 sucks as a client OS. I used 7.6.1 as a desktop/client OS for a while on my LCIII(475) before I got my Quadra and it was solid there too. No it wasn't solid. Maybe compared to 7.5. You gonna rob a bank for me are you? I can't afford a router, I deem it unnecessary as I have all the hardware (with a little purchasing) to do it now and can save myself £100s and rescue another IIci and a Rocket and put it to good use. M... I take it you are not the one paying the electricity bill in your household. Otherwise you might think a bit different about it... 7.6.1 is pretty solid, though not as a rock, not compared to OS X anyway. That's a bit unfair, comparing it to Unix ;). It's not as solid as 9.1 if yo want a modern comparison but it's pretty close. It doesn't even come close to Mac OS 8.1. And if you like, I can also give you a not so modern comparison... I happen to know this OS that is much stabler still than 9.1, but I guess you already know which system I'm talking about. -- Check out the System 6 Heaven: http://www.euronet.nl/users/mvdk/system_6_heaven.html Subscribe to the LEM system6 list: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] - -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Mark, he has a point here. The IIci sucks electricity like nobody's business. What I still don't get is where the heck the need for IP addressing on an internal, not-connected-to-the-Internet, LAN is coming from. If you need to do file sharing in the absence of the iBook, you can - just not over TCP/IP. But file sharing over TCP/IP is outrageously slow (especially compared to just AppleTalk over Ethernet) anyway, so there's *no advantage* to it. Any other use that's been mentioned so far in this thread would require an Internet connection, thus necessitating the placement of the iBook *back* into the network.

Re: Internet jiggery pokery
Well I solved that - IPNR talks MacIP :). I found a bit in the docs for IPNR (which I have read but to no avail) on sharing to LocalTalk Machines, pretty cool :). Remember I suggested that you read Amber's site about networking? That's why - she covered this in her pages. :) http://archaic-apples.shauny.de/index.php?category=Macintoshsubcategory=Intl+S ystem+SW About 2/3 the way down the page, has pictures and all. Far better description than the gibberish I type. IPNR's tools for doing this did not work for me but I was looking at the network the wrong way. Configuring it by hand helped me work it out. Doh. Only being able to route appletalk over one port at a time is a limitation stopping you from using the modem/printer ports at the same time One MacIP config in IPNR covers both ports and you choose which through the appletalk CP I. forgot sorry You dont need MacIP when using IPNR over Ethernet so you can point appletalk else where. -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

The frame rate starts to drop off though. I think it's 4-6fps for that size. 320x240 is fine, you can't really get any more quality out of a VCR video if you make it any larger. The only thing that would make it a problem was if you wanted to watch the video on a big display :). DVD is 720x480. Super Video CD is 640x480. 320x240 is almost, but not quite as high a resolution as standard Video CD.

Subject: Re: my internet problem From: Mark Benson [EMAIL PROTECTED] In-Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Message-Id: [EMAIL PROTECTED] My server runs 7.6.1 and goes and goes and goes and.. you get the idea. I have 3 System 7 machines (LC - 7.0.1 from it's original install disks, SE/30 - 7.1, LCIII(475) - 7.6.1 and solid as a rock)... Is that 7.6.1 with or without PPC code?

TigerDirect.com has some too but for some reason only their printed catalog tells which works for Win and Mac. I think Dazzle has one with a firewire passthrough plus all the analog video hookups for doing DA/AD conversions and it ain't near $250. = http://www.junkscience.com All the Junk that's fit to Debunk! __ Do You Yahoo!?

Re: Swedish keyboard with US system?
Thanks for the suggestions, and yes, I've found these old system at the suggested website. However, the files I receive after download are not possible to open. They are listed as *.hqx files on the website, but nothing happens when StuffIt is started. I get no disk images as I suppose they should become in the end. Have I missed anything here? --robert -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
