James,

Smilar problem installing Panther on my Lombard. Removing top slot RAM allowed the install to take place. More pertinent to your situation perhaps, I recently had a conversation with a Wallstreet owner who said this worked:


I read about someone installing XPostFacto on a Wallstreet and having video
problems until they removed a video extension.

 So, I restarted in OS 9.2.2, opened the Jaguar system library and removed
the following extensions:

  ATIRadeon, ATIRadeon8500, ATIRadeon8500DVDDriver, ATIRageProGA,
ATIRage128, ATIRage128GA, ATIRage128DVDDriver,ATIRadeon8500GA,
ATIRadeon8500GLDriver, ATIRadeon9700, ATIRagePro, ATIRage128GLDriver,
ATIRadeon9700DVDDriver, ATIRadeon9700GA, ATIRadeon9700GLDriver, ATIRadeonGA,
ATIRadeonGLDriver, and ATIRadeonDVDDriver.

Since removing these extensions, I've been able to repair permissions
for the first time, import folders of photos into iPhoto, create a Movie and
render it for 14 hours in Toast 6, and burn a DVD without a lock-up, color
vertical lines, or a black screen - Hooray! The newer video extensions
required for the newer Macs conflict with my older LT-G card. Been running for a week without problems.


Also, if you're running Jaguar, this might work for you:

1. Open Terminal (/Applications/Utilities/).
2. Type:

sudo mv /System/Library/Extensions/AppleNDRV/ATIDriver.bundle /Users/Shared/

Note: There is a space after "mv" and another after ".bundle".

3. Press Return.
4. Type: sudo touch /System/Library/Extensions
5. Press Return.
6. Restart the computer.


Good luck, hope this helps. . . the usual disclaimers apply here. -- Rick Smykla [EMAIL PROTECTED]
