Pardon me for this comment, not helping with the OSX-problem on the 9500: Won't the necessarily slow bus speed on the 9500 make it a tad slow for OSX? My "pure" G3 is not a racer with panther, and it is a REAL G3 (althought of the gray desktop unsupported type)? I have a 9500 sitting around. Cool box, but damn noisy and a nightmare to get at the disk in front and to change the PRAM battery....
Sure, the 50 MHz bus speed is a bottleneck, but then most people would classify the only slightly faster 66 MHz speed of a Beige G3 a bottleneck compared to the iMac G5's 600 MHz Bus. In any case, my PowerMac 7600 G3/350 and 7600 G4/400 are both fast enough in 10.4 to keep up with email, web surfing, Office and other non-power user OS duties, but then both have PCI Rage128 video cards, which speed up parts of the UI considerably.
