Re: Router problems, seek suggestion

Laurent, I don't have a suggestion for your router problems, but I'm having a weird problem with Cox since I switched over from Roadrunner. Our Cox system is configured to hand out IPs like candy, and I have a Linksys WAP which doesn't do NAT. (I bought it before I joined this list) Anyway, Cox

Good thing you didn't install that 500mHz Sonnet card, huh? New information: Upon looking a bit closer at the System Profile, I just noticed that my new/used PowerBook G3-300 runs at 450. Apparently there is some sort of upgrade card inside. Funny that the eBay seller didn't mention

. Everything appeared to be fine, but printing to video I lost audio. I just got tiny bits and pieces of audio. Is this a RAM issue? Is 192MB not enough? Could it be my Firewire card? Any advice on any of these topics would be sincerely appreciated. Dan Lovejoy -- G-Books is sponsored by http

James, If you can somehow get your 250 to Phoenix, http://www.pbparts.com does a great job with these sorts of repairs. He doesn't charge for labor, just for parts, and it's very reasonable. I am a satisfied customer. Do you ever get to the States? -dhl James Cox wrote: When I restart my

Jeff- This seems consistent with a hardware failure in your something something (I can't remember what it's called, but it provides power to the screen.) The same thing happened to my ThinkPad from work with turning down the screen brightness being the same workaround. I would get it repaired

Sonnet 500mHz upgrade + Firewire question

2002-05-21 Thread Dan Lovejoy

On a related note, does anyone know of a way I can put my WS PB into Firewire Target disk mode (I have an OrangeLink Firewire Card), or something like it? I have some digital video work to do at home which my PB can handle, but the files are on my work machine. Thanks. I think I've read

OS X to OS 9 restart?

2002-04-03 Thread Dan Lovejoy
Hello everyone. I have a Wallstreet 300/192/30. When I get a kernel panic or something untoward happens and I have to restart, my machine boots back into OS 9. Ack! I have OS9 on a separate partition. I don't want to install it on my OS X partition and I don't want to repartition and start over.
