Shreve Systems should be called Thieve Systems Chris Wood I have to agree, Shreve Systtems has been ripping the Mac community off for years! You shouldn't do business with any company that charges a 30% restocking fee when they send you the wrong part! Don't take my word for it. A Google

Re: LC II as a server?

2003-08-28 Thread Marten van de Kraats
An LC or an LCII makes a great little headless server. To get around the need for a monitor to boot, I made a small flat-bottomed U-shaped jumper out of a paperclip, just large enough to short pins #7 and #10 on the monitor connector. That makes it think a 640x480 display is attached. I don't

Hi Marten, I guess more ASCII-art is in order!:-) Looking at the *back* of my LC that has the video jumper in place between pins 7 and 10: Pins are numbered from RIGHT to LEFT: 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 o X o o o o o o (The X's mark the two pin-holes that are jumpered) o o o o o X o 1

Hi, In regard to my earlier question on how to clean the nozzles of a StyleWriter II: I am afraid I didn't express myself clearly, this is a StyleWriter II that hasn't been used for about 5 years, so I am afraid that I might need a special cleaner. I want to know if it is possible to clean the

Hi Clark, Pins 4 and 11, huh? That's quite interesting. My choice of shorting pins 7 and 10 was from information gleaned from Apple, at: Technical Note HW08:http://developer.apple.com/technotes/hw/hw_08.html Video Pinouts: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=9089

Actually, my LC II works without any jumpers installed. I have a setting wrong in the networking. Does anyone know how I can shut it down cleanly without a monitor on it? Any remote tools available at 7.5.5? Thanks, Winston -- From: Clark Martin [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Vintage Macs [EMAIL

pin 7 and 10 work for me. Thanks, Bob. Now I can finally put my fanless LC to work as a server. Since sleeper puts the hard disk to snooze after only one minute it truly is a silent server that only awakens when it is called for duty. Marten -- Vintage Macs list nanny

What is sleeper? That is a control panel that allows you to have the hard disk set to sleep automatically. This way you can reduce heat, noise and energy usage. Marten -- Vintage Macs list nanny -- Check out the System 6 Heaven:
