The app is ViITUAL GIBBS 5.0 the dongle is a ADB unit also I can use it on a Griffin iMate, but I want to use it on my G5 PM it doesn't boot OS9 and the dongle needs to boot at start up. So I have to boot 9 to use it, I have plenty of dual boot OS9 Tiger machines, but I'd like to include the use of my PM G5s also, hence the need for a dongle crack.
