Re: 933 mhz G4 Quicksilver Powermac OS Linux or OS X?
Howdy, I'd say it depends on what you use the computer for. Is it your only computer or one of 10(although I don't know how anyone would get by with only 10 computers)? If it is your main computer, then go with an up to date Linux, because of security. A 1st class firewall can help, but for some things, you need to stay up to date. I thought the Linux versus Mac quote was cute. I don't think that fully explains why Linux is so much better for most purposes. Partially, that is because a lot of Linux code is contributed by people who are paid to work on the system, just like Apple employees. It also does not explain why OSes with active and loyal contributers like Haiku and Syllable are not further along. All of these OSes have good uses and I would miss OSX, if I ever have to give it up. I suppose my G4 and an eventual G5 will wear out after a while. But, I don't think I'll ever have 30 OSX machines, like I have that many Linux machines now.

My theory is that they're *expecting* large differences and so are more open to the changes, while OS X is JUST close enough to OS 9 to be familiar and just different enough to mess you up.

Anyone tried Logitech's LCC 3.2?
Under 10.5.8 on my Digital Audio Dual 533, I've been using an Apple AL KB and Mighty Mouse with great success, and wanted to switch to my Logitech MX Duo KB and Mouse. I just tried Logitech's LCC 3.2 for my MX Wireless KB and Mouse ... I'm getting double characters when trying to use the wireless KB, and the mouse sometimes acts erratically. Removing the LCC installed apps, I get weird KB malfunctions such as no alt-Q to quit an application, but my Start/alt/option-Q combination does that task. Sort of like both the Apple Logitech KB and Mouse app's and extension's are working in parallel. According to an earlier G3-G5 post, which I found useful at the time, I tried to find the demonic Scroll Enhancer to remove it, but as yet don't see it: ... if you've installed LCC Scroll Enhancer, then you've added a VERY buggy evil InputManager to your system -- that loads into EVERYTHING. So the first thing I would recommend, is that you rip it out... To do this, you have to manually remove *ALL* of LCC Scroll Enhancer: /Library/Application Enhancers/LCC Scroll Enhancer.ape/ /Library/Application Support/Logitech/LCC Scroll Enhancer.bundle /Library/InputManagers/LCC Scroll Enhancer Loader /Library/ScriptingAdditions/LCC Scroll Enhancer Loader.osax The .ape might not be there, if you're using a more up to date version of LCC. After removing the above, go check your user ~/Library/ folder for the same. Then, Reboot to make changes be released all other softwares.

PowerMac G3- G4 Upgrade Aftermath.
Well the Yikes board slipped right into the BW. I did have to scrap they keyboard and mouse because they were ADB. I noticed on the Yikes board that there was a place for the connector to go. I don't know if putting the surface mount capacitors and swapping the plug would allow ADB operations? Wonder if anyone took the time to find out way back when? I have a USB keyboard. But it doesn't allow me to zap the pram or enter verbose mode. I haven't tried holding down the C key to see if it will boot off the CD. I have my doubts that it will. So.. It looks like I will have to buy an apple keyboard to get those features to work. Any suggestions? The old MB or Processor must have had something wrong with them. They were often giving me freezes and the multi-language page. I have been up with the Yikes board for 15 hours now without a glitch. When I get my esr meter constructed I will check out the yellow caps on the board. Who knows? The most common failure would occur when transferring files on the local network. For some reason a file over 800 meg would cause the G3 board to crash. (among other things). Thankfully that is gone now. Transfered 8 gig without a crash. I did transplant the memory and video card from the old board. Seems to be okay. Maybe the G3 processor can go into my old Beige G3 that is sitting next to it running Tiger. The yikes board and processor was cheap enough and very easy to swap. So all in all I think it was a worth while thing. Well thanks for all that contributed with Ideas. See ya on the web!
