[ADMIN] Testing... Is this thing on?

2004-03-31 Thread Mailing List Manager

Hi Everyone,

The server took a lot longer to upgrade and rebuild than I 
had expected.


Everything is almost back to normal with the list. The 
mirror site needs to fill up again, so there are a few 
things missing on that front.


You may not be able to post to the list for a while. The 
DNS system needs to filter through some of the changes we 
made.


ozmac.com users can now just go straight to 
https://mail.ozmac.com You don't need to worry about the 
port number any more.


Other than that, thanks for your patience.

- Matt

 The ibook is 800 Mhz G3 [bought December 02] 640 Mhz of RAM

After resetting the power manager [1] - have you had an opportunity to
test a known-good battery in it?

If you regularly use it unplugged, your battery would be nearing the end
of its useful life anyhow, but this test should tell you a bit more.

It is backward compatible in both directions in theory. In practise,
some USB controller chipsets don't like some USB device chipsets,
especially early USB2 device chipsets. 

I've had no problems using USB2 devices on 1.1 systems and vice versa,
but others do report issues. I'm surprised to hear it won't work on
/any/ of your tested systems, though - perhaps the USB2 chipset in the
disk enclosure isn't as standards compliant as it could be?

Cool iiNet usage meter for your menu bar!

2004-03-31 Thread Rod Lavington

Hi All!

I noticed this little app on Versiontracker this evening:

http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/22537

For those of us who use iiNet, this shows how many gigs you have left for
the month, or how much you have used.  Just sits up in the menu bar.  Very
cool!

Better than Ebay

2004-03-31 Thread Vladimir James
The de-cluttering goes on.

Jaz drive 1MB (SCSI) w/3 disks; installation floppy; power cable.

NetComm Roadster II 56k modem; Mac cable  driver; plug-pack.

PalmHUB-5E Ethernet Hub w/5 RJ-45 ports; manual; AC adapter.

Must go together. All worked well when last used with G3. 

$40.  No guarantees, no returns, no support. 

Email me.

Guess this means the server's back! How's Panther Server going Matt?

BTW, any chance of having a link to the _new_ list archives added to the
wamug home page? I know they're in the email headers, but without being
in the archives I can't check what the headers are.. ;)

monitor slows laptop

2004-03-31 Thread David de la Hunty

Can anyone advise on this?

I have been using my 333 bronze powerbook (running 9.2.2) with an 
external 17 Apple monitor and USB keyboard and mouse. It is ideal for 
me to be able to move from one setup to the other during work ie 
sometimes directly entering data on the laptop, and typing (letters 
etc) on the main keyboard and monitor at other times.


The computer always runs slower with a monitor attached - particularly 
Appleworks and others. Every window or screen redraw is slowed and 
happens TWICE when the monitor is attached, and scrolling down a 
pulldown window is also much slower.


Does anyone know why this happens, and is it likely to be different if 
I get a different monitor eg flat panel one? Or will I be faced with 
the same thing again?


Thanks -

David de la Hunty
