I was going to ask whether it's possible to prevent the titanium series from waking when lid is opened under OS X Panther. Then I found out you can type in Terminal: "sudo pmset -a lidwake 0". I seem to remember this was possible to set in Energy Manager in the Powerbook G3 series with Panther. Bu

When I press cmd-shift-fn-power, the green light switches on and the fan starts spinning forever; this only stops when I press the key combination again. I had a WS I with those symptoms that a bad PMU. I have a WS II (even more dead) at my disposal. I remember, however, that someone on the list

The best thing to do would be to bring it to an Apple Store if you have one near you or to an authorized service provider. The LCD is brighten by a light, basically, so it is possible that something is developing with the backlight. The "problem" is that it's not exactly dark or unreadable. (*) W

Before doing that, just make double sure that pressing F2 doesn't brighten it back up, and for good measure, take a look at the brightness slider in the display control panel. Thanks, but I double-checked it all many times. Everything's maxed out. Marcin Wichary e:\> [EMAIL PROTECTED] w:\> w
