The 6100 supports up to 9.1, but you must install it from a 9.1 disc. You cannot boot a 6100 from a 9.0 install disc (even a retail one), so you can't install 9.0 or update to 9.1 …

I think the PMU may have been corrupted also. I know you have reset it but maybe not waited the 5 seconds. Here is the power manager reset for the Lombard: PowerBook G3 Series (…

I personally only care up to the point that it helps keep the community active and it is nice to see people doing this sort of thing. But aside from that it is hard to get involved…

There's some issues with it due to hardware incompatibilities (I think it's based off the SAM440ep install disc), but it'd be fun to at least get some form of AmigaOS4 running on a…

While you're trying out stuff, you could also give the hacked AmigOS 4.0 install CD that works on the G4 Mac Mini a go. See how well it works. I got it off your server so you shoul…

We need a variant of :?: if we want to have all startup icons represented. We need one that goes from ? to X to ? to represent what happens when a bad disk is placed in the driv…

All you are doing is taking off the very thin layer of yellowed exposed surface, which after a few years will yellow again anyway. The bad part is you can expose blotchyness and mo…

Use to have this problem on CRT monitors when using certain adapters, or having the refresh rate set to a rate the monitor could not deal with. Problem was fixed by simply changing…

It really is worth it. Click to expand... I concur.

I really wanted to upgrade my Sawtooth Click to expand... The original stock video card for a Sawtooth is a Rage 128 Pro. Same as your new card?

If you turn the computer on with the back removed in a darkened room, can you see a blue electrical discharge ("corona discharge") around the top of the EHT transformer? If so, th…

Follow-up in a year or two, and then maybe I'll consider if there's still no reports of brittleness or cracking. Click to expand... What's with the continued fears here? To me…

You don't even need the hubs for this sort of thing. Click to expand... I would like to use a hub so i can hide it and so if i get some more of my macs on the network i can jus…

No, I haven't seen any evidence of that. The screen's bright and clear; there was no wobble at all, as far as I could tell. If a deaf man were to start up the Plus, he would perc…

Which was a bummer because we specifically *wanted* a hub for the application in question. (don't ask.) Click to expand... Non-invasive packet sniffing? Stress testing using an…

Depends on the nature of the "fizzling" sound. Could be a grounding problem. If the sound reoccurs, try opening it up and loosening and retightening the grounding plate screws and…

Why did I say wheelie bin? Because that's what HE said. Turned out to be a large tub, about three quarters full. I'm kind of glad in a way, because, I wouldn't have had the spac…

You need a hub or a cross-over cable rather than a standard drop-cable. Click to expand... Never suggest to people unfamiliar with basic home networking to get a hub. Always sw…

That's sort of the case with my Performa 578. Except, the fizzling sound stops when you have an active window open on the desktop - if you don't, then the fizzling sound returns.
