Make sure you have the right System Folder and Extension folder?  If 
you have multiple System Folders and put the extensions into an 
inactive one they won't show in chooser.  Select one of the drivers 
and do Get Info.  It's Kind should be Chooser Extension.

Try temporarily disabling PDD Maker GX.  It's possible it's confusing 
Chooser and causing it to stop listing other devices (possible, not 
likely though).

What are the printer drivers that don't show up?

HI,
As wrote from Gregg E. you can use Nero to burn these images.
You can download all 3 images from:

ftp://auxanon:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/

only a transfert for IP ad limit to 10 Mb/s

you can use netscape to do it, pasting this address in the navigator,
o user wget like:

# wget -c  ftp://auxanon:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/
AUX_3.0.1_Install.toast_image.gz
(126 MB compressed GZ for a 400 MB installationCD)

(19 MB SW update to 3.1)

(the links are splitted, you must to put it in a line)

Note that mac os cut the names due to the limit to 31 carathers.
I have download all images from linux, renamed ad burned from a old 8200

I am trying to burn it on a Windoze machine. I noticed that Aladdin Expander
can decompress gzip files. Once I do that, can Nero burn the resulting
.image file and write the disc copy image to a floppy? Also, what should I

Re: Mac Color Classic

2002-09-29 Thread J.S. Garrison

 Hi all,
 
 I have a Color Classic very very clean (it seem new).
 But with System 7.1 is slow and accept anly 10 MB of ram.

 there is a way to have more of 10 of ram without change the mainboard?

 ciao,
 MaX


Sorry, no. A Color Classic is an LC II. It wil only recognize 10MB of RAM
and runs at a dismal 16Mhz.

You CAN place another logic board inside. The Mystic Upgrade, Stuart Bell's
baby, is a logic board from an LC or Performa 575. Much faster.

 Hi all,
 
 a friends of mine have some 16 Mb simm to sell:
 
 4 have some chips Samsung KMM5916000T-8
 and the other 4 have chips marked KM41C16000AT-7

 can i use these simm i a Mac IIci or in a SE/30?

 ciao,

If they're 30 pin simms. Great in the SE/30. The chips are not completely
matched, but if like-kind fours are placed together in the sets
of slots you'll get 64MB at 80ns access.

Oh, in a IIci same story applies.

Re: more A/UX

 brilliant, i will give it a go - i have a friend who has a G4 tower

 i gather it runs fine on 030's... which i have one of... but it would 
 be
 nice to try it on the powerbook...

Unfortunately Apple developed a/ux for only a subset of machines made - 
mainly those that could be used as servers, which leaves out every 
powerbook (even with FPUs). The ability to run on the hardware isn't 
there. Same with the 660AV and 840AVs with their different architecture.

The relevant bit from the FAQ though, is:


G.02)  What's the minimum system I need (CPU, disk and RAM) to run A/UX?

A/UX 3.0 works on the MacII (with PMMU _or_ 68030 upgrade with FDHD 
ROM's
installed), IIx, IIcx, IIci, IIfx, SE/30, IIsi (with 68882 chip) and the
Quadra 700|900|950 computers. A/UX 3.0.1 (and later) adds support for 
the
Q800 and Centris Machines (the Centrises _must_ have the real 68040 
w/FPU -
See QA #G.03). A/UX will run on the Quadra 610 and 650s (recall that 
A/UX
requires the _real_ 68040 chip!) with a little bit of work.

A/UX will NOT run on the PowerMacs, any AV machines, any PowerBooks (or
portables), the LCs, the Duos, the ClassicII, the Q605 or on the Quadra
630... It is recommended that you NOT run A/UX 3.1.1 on the II, IIx, 
IIcx or
SE/30 machines, since their MacOS-compatibility is unreliable under 
3.1.1.

Recall that A/UX _is_ UNIX and thus contains some very hardware specific
drivers. It's for this reason (and not Apple not doing things 
correctly) that

printer cables???

2002-09-29 Thread Yvetta Williams

I am trying to set up the Apple laserwriter II NTX printer with the Apple
IIci computer.  The apple talk cable that I have on my other older mac
doesn't fit on the IIci.
 
There is a printer cable port on the printer and on the computer.  The port
on the computer has an arrow going up and another going down below the port.
(I think this is a printer cable port)
 
There is a wide SCUSI and a narrow SCUSI port on the printer.

Anyone have any suggestions as to which cable I should use to get it
working??  Thanks   Yvetta

Sound and the LC

2002-09-29 Thread Mike Mellor

Hello - 

I recently rescued an old LC.  It works great, except for the sound.  When I first 
started checking the LC out it was running 6.0.7 and the sound was very low, but 
audible.  

I upgraded to System 7.1, which gave me a sound control panel.  I opened the sound 
control and had to adjust the slide bar to the top to hear any of the sounds.  I tried 
hooking up external speakers, and about all that I could hear was the hum.

What do I need to do to get my LC (plain LC by the way) to play sounds?  My initial 
intention is to use it as a kids' game machine, so sound is pretty important!

Thanks.

Mike

Use RAWRITE for DOS to write the boot disk image

 Sorry, no. A Color Classic is an LC II. It wil only

 You CAN place another logic board inside. The Mystic

 Much faster.

The LC/Performa 520 or 550 board will also work.
Pop a 550 board in and it's identical to a Color
Classic II. :) 33Mhz 030, easy upgrade to 36meg RAM
or more if you want to spend more on one SIMM than
the computer is worth. 36meg is plenty and the 32meg
72pin SIMMs are fairly cheap.

Do you have the three wire AppleTalk cable? You'll
need the 8 pin Mini DIN AppleTalk box. Alternatively
you could get a pair of PhoneNet boxes and use
standard phone cord between them. Probably get that
whole setup for less than one regular AppleTalk box.

 There is a wide SCUSI and a narrow SCUSI port on the
 printer.

What are the symbols next to those connectors?

The wide SCSI port is probably a parallel port.
Have a closer look, should be numbers in the plastic
on the connector. (Real little ones.) If the highest
number is 36 it's a parallel port for PC use.
If the narrow SCSI port is male with pins it's
a serial port, also for use with a PC or other
system. Might be able to connect direct to it
with a Mac, skipping the AppleTalk or PhoneNet.

If it's a female connector with holes, then it's
a SCSI port to connect a hard drive for font storage.

Re: Sound and the LC

2002-09-29 Thread Spiritus ex Machina

HI, Mike,

I just checked out the sound on one of my LCs, also running 7.1. The
behavior of the system I checked is consistent with your description. I
needed to use amplified (powered) speakers to get a significant sound
volume. Have you tried powered speakers? Also, be sure that the sound port
contacts are clean and that the plug for the speakers is clean. Good luck.

Sp00ky

Hello -

I recently rescued an old LC.  It works great, except for the sound.
When I first started checking the LC out it was running 6.0.7 and the
sound was very low, but audible.

I upgraded to System 7.1, which gave me a sound control panel.  I
opened the sound control and had to adjust the slide bar to the top to
hear any of the sounds.  I tried hooking up external speakers, and
about all that I could hear was the hum.

What do I need to do to get my LC (plain LC by the way) to play sounds?
My initial intention is to use it as a kids' game machine, so sound is
pretty important!

Thanks.

Mike

Isn't this about the case with any Mac or personal computer? Don't 
you always need powered speakers to get a decent sound?

Control of the sound volume has been part of the control panel since 
about system 1. In 6.07 sound can be controlled via the control panel 
'general'.

Greetings, Marten,

You observed:

Nope. I've used a mix of powered and unpowered speakers on my Wintel and
Linux boxes with SoundBlaster and ESS sound cards. I think it may have
something to do with the features of the particular card: some cards have
separate speaker and line-out ports; some have a single, combined
speaker/line-out port. I've got a low-end PC (P200MMX, 64M, Win95) that I
use for teaching; it's got a generic ESS card with a combined audio-out
port that drives a pair of small, unpowered speakers just fine. Another
Wintel machine (AMD K6/233, 96M, Win98) drives a pair of unpowered Infinity
speakers through a SoundBlaster 16 ISA PnP card. But the next box over, a
Red Hat Linux 7.2 system on the same type chasis as the Win95 box but with
the same sound card as the Win98 box needs amplified speakers (Altec
Lansing ACS5). You figure it out, 'cause I sure can't. insert puzzled

Most older PC soundcards with one speaker jack have
one or two jumpers to select line level out or
amplified output. :) E-mail me off-list and I'll
see what info I can find on your cards.

As for the low sound level on the LC, probably
grungy contacts between the built in speaker and
the logic board and same on the speaker jack.

Try using a pencil eraser to gently polish the
speaker contacts on the board and speaker.
