It has AGP and is therefor a Sawtooth.

If you have two mac laptops, I did this on my recent vacation. take the laptop with the working ethernet, and then have that laptop share internet over Airport. It worked every tim…

Yikes!

2) I did end up doing the firewire target disk thing for transferring the files I wanted to, right now. Worked fine. [...] Click to expand... Why not try booting the iBook off …

Sounds like a Sawtooth.

Ok didn't want to start a new thread so I just changed the topic of this one. I want to identify my G4 Power Mac, and hope you can suggest some cpu upgrades both aftermarket, or wh…

1) I am using a patch cable. I haven't yet looked for a twisted pair in the tangled drawer. 2) I did end up doing the firewire target disk thing for transferring the files I wante…

A good spraying of freon could be helpful in removing any remaining tomato residue and all the dried up conductive minerals left behind from the water and possible residual toothpa…

Why not just use Firewire instead? Click to expand... You stir up an interesting idea by mentioning FireWire. Why don't you put your iMac into target disk mode, connect it to…

Why not just use Firewire instead?

It's the weirdest thing. Both the iBook and the Lombard are on 10.3.9. I am not using a hub, just connecting the two computers with a cable. This cable works to connect the Lombar…

make sure it has an internal 6 pin FireWire port, then you know it is a Sawtooth. Oh, and the GBE models have a tall rough silver coloured heatsink on a chip behind the ethernet po…

None of my iBooks have ever had a truly bad Ethernet system, but my original BlueBerry iBook has the little retainer tab broken off of the jack, so I must be certain that the conne…

Thanks ealex79, I just replied to your PM. We are referring to a hybrid system folder that was constructed using Mac OS 8.6 off an iMac restore CD and ROM 2.5.1. I'm certain that…

Failure of the iBook to connect with either of two other Macs that connect happily to each other argues either bad hardware or bad software in the iBook. What OS in the iBook? Ca…

What I meant by cleaning the whole board was that I used a soft toothbrush with a little water. I did let it dry completely and even used a hair dryer on the low setting to make su…

I think perhaps we need more detail on what you mean by "cleaned the whole board"

Did you get my PM? Did the stuff I sent you work/helped?

It will connect fine over localtalk to a ppc machine running Classic (and NCU) under X.4 or lower if the network is run through an Appletalk Router.

UPDATE: uninstalled the offical driver, loaded the open source one, rebooted, and still nothing. Could it be because I have the RXTX library installed? I had to install it or the …

Mike, I have completely dismantled a G3 AIO before. It took me a couple of hours, and is kind of a pain, but it can be done. The nice part is the analog board slides out after yo…

Ok I did a upgrade to 10.4 from 10.2, but it didn't seem to like it so I want to try and format and then install 10.4 but it now didn't boot from the DVD drive. What do I do? *Upd…

Tiger has all the drivers for the Radeon 7000 so don't panic, it's not a great card but it is much better then the 128. Your G4 can take a mix of PC100 and 133 and you should have…

Ok I updated to Tiger and now it works fine, I have some questions as a new mac user. Is the PCI Radeon 7000 I popped in fine? I didn't install drivers. Doews Tiger already have go…
