Caleb, did you reset the PMU?
Resetting the Power Manager
PowerBook G3 Series (Bronze Keyboard)computers have a
reset button located on the back of the computer behind the
I/O door. Press the button once to reset the power manager.
The PMU is located (AFAIK) on the main logic board. There is a
identical complete working PowerBook. It makes things so much easier to
have known-good working parts to swap in and out for testing purposes.
*/Not not-all-that-helpful advice*
SARCASM Does a PowerBook 190 count? I've got two of them, one
complete and one in pieces, if that'll help test Lombard
parts
I've found the problem. I have another 60g
drive I use as a FW External backup for my Pismo. That drive will boot
in the Lombard. I believe the problem is a bad Toshiba HDD. I'm going
to contact them for a replacement.
Thanks for everyone's help and patience.

It really depends on the card. As I can attest, the easiest ones are
the Broadcom-based cards, because they use Apple's Airport drivers.
However, they're all easy to setup, with the right drivers. Pop in, set

I've been warned not to use my Lombard on a soft surface (like a
pillow).
Apparently it vents a lot of heat out the bottom and can't do that if
it's got no airflow underneath.
Watch another movie with the 'book on a hard surface
underneath the laptop when in use. As Andrew says,
don't use a pillow. With a Lombard, even a hard surface doesn't
provide the best ventilation but it's better then a pillow for sure.
You may be lucky that you didn't damage the processor at those
temps. As I recall, that is what leads
and
stabilizer works great

I'm looking to move up from a 3400c to a Lombard or Pismo and want
your advice as to which to go for, or if there is a significant real
world difference.
I've combed the LEM site and EveryMac, but want more than just specs to go by.
I'd like to be able to surf the web wirelessly, write
I really liked my Lombard, until I got the Pismo, Firewire, the last
requirement for Tiger. They were both 400 MHz models, I can't say I
see a big difference in speed. Bit built in Airport and Firewire have
me on the Pismo over the Lombard laying at my feet. That and it's
dead again, I
Absolutely not interchangeable. Different connector, different ram
sockets...
Holy MACkeral! Look at the new 'Books!

Hi,
I seem to remember someone offering a G4/500 or 550 upgrade for the
Lombard series, but I can't seem to remember which company. I know the
WS I and II have available upgrades from Sonnet, but I'd like to bump
the Lombard up.
Also, are there any heat issues with Lombard/Pismo systems
Dear listers, and, more specifically, fellow Lombard users,
I've got my Lombard in my lap, as it virtually lives in my recliner.
However, I was watching some video in VLC when I felt things getting
hot. I then fired up TemperatureX and saw that my Lombard was running a
smokin' 183 degrees

I know this subject has been talked about a lot on this list, and I went
back and checked the archives, but am still having a problem I can't
resolved. I have a 400 mhz Lombard with 320 Mg ram and a 40 Gig Hard Drive.
I have been trying to install OS 10.2 and it keeps crashing or freezing up
