Modem keeps redialing in Jaguar
Hi there, With a new imac I find the modem keeps redialling after disconnection. Even if I have switched all applications off. I have to put the computer to sleep to stop it!

Re: Subject: Re: RAM needed for OS X on Lombard
gf sciacca said at ÒSubject: Re: RAM needed for OS X on LombardÓ. [19/Jan/2004 01:46] It runs fine (and by far more stable) under OS X, but not half as fast as under OS 9.2.2, specially when using many apps at a time as I do. Special concerns (in my case) are very slow Finder actions, terribly long apps launching time, slow window scrolling and Mail annoyingly long deadtimes (even when it is the only application running). Plus, I lost use of the internal modem under OS X. Word processing is fine, forget image and sound editing/processing, way faster under OS 9. Perhaps 512 MB of RAM would improve on all of the above. On the bright side (and most importantly), software installations and configurations, peripheral support, external hardware compatibilyty and so on are vastly improved. Having heard repeatedly that Panther is faster, you'll be better off than me. I'll give it a shot myself. Perhaps I'll re-gain the modem as well. 10.28 on a 233 wallstreet is good with 512 MB RAM Email still fairly slow. Mailsmith is a lot faster, and so is Musashi, than Mail, Thunderbird or Mulberry. I have control of the internal modem. The System Prefs/Network must be configureed right. Select 'show printer/ modem and delete enteries. Then select 'show internal modem and make sure your entry is there. CLick apply. Cheers, John PLum -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Even Apple's email client does this; my chess internet programme, auction bidder, all the same: 'modem connection problem reported', 'check modem connections' and no successful action from these applications. The settings are correct however. And I may even be connected, manually. I restarted in OS 9 with same settings and applications, no problem.

Does anyone know where I can obtain version 3.0 from, or does anyone have a copy for sale out there? do you mean running in simulation mode? i.e. virtual pc I've seen that a University in the US has/had MapInfo running on their Macs but don't know which version they use or if it's still available - MapInfo can't/won't reply to my emails. Above question applies. What about other GIS/mapping software? A really decent bit of kit is MFWorks, from a Canadian company. The other option is the opensource Grass project which can be installed on CD. DO google searches for either. regards, John -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: OSX on Wallstreet.
MY G3 mounts an OSX install disc. You may try pressing c (or is it d?) at start up to force it to select the cd. CD-RWs are not recognized by the internal g3 cd tray. A peripheral device may recognize them. Don't worry their not particularly useful, in my opinion. 23/12/03 9:46 am -0800 Krevnik [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Something else this machine is doing is not recognising CD's, in particular, CD-RW's. It also will not always mount the OS install disc. It has done this with both the OS and X discs. Regards, John Plum -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
