Hi all,
Last week I conquered a PM 9600, which I plan to use as my main OldWorld machine instead of my 9500. It has 860 Mb of Ram and a 300 MMz G3 upgrade card, so I bet I could install 10.4 on it just for fun, using XPostFacto.
Everything went fine (grey Apple, verbose booting), until the installer window loaded: the screen is horizontally split in two. The upper part acts just as it should do: I can click on things, move around the windows, launch the utilities, etc. But it's not high enough for me to reach the OK button, which is below.
Then there is a 2-3 pixels black horizontal bar righ in the middle of the screen, and the lower half looks weird: same blue background, and an empty menu bar. When I try moving windows from the upper part to the right, assuming the lower part is a kind of "extended desktop", they do indeed appear in the lower part, but completely messed up, so I can only see mixed pixels and colors.
Has anybody seen something similar? I tried googling and searching the XPostFacto support forum, without any luck. But I don't know if I made myself clear nor if I'm using the right words…
