Macs are only more susceptible to spearfishing because the monitor

Oh no! I THINK that BOTH USB ports in my Mini died! :-O Is this
possible, they could both go at the same time? Or am I missing
something? OK, here it is...
This is the same Mini from the other day (1.5 GHz/1 GB RAM/Tiger

Macs can act all weird when they don't have a kb and/or mouse attached.
Try it stand-alone: connect a known-good keyboard and mouse to the Mini.
Reboot the mini in safe mode. See what happens.
WOW! It worked FINE stand-alone! :-O It booted up in Safe Mode

And why haven't you updated to 10.4.11?
My Quicksilver 867 DOES run 10.4.11. I bought the Mini SPECIFICALLY
because it had 10.4.2 on it and included 10.4.2 system CDs, ON PURPOSE

Okay update -- all seems to be good now.
Was having problems with safe booting (three times total, holding shift
and power to boot up gave me that same Bluetooth nonsense with the stuck
cursor), and I had forgotten about OPTION-restart. I should also

It might well have been a problem with the KVM switch. That would
account for the stuck cursor (no mouse connection), the failure to
safe boot (no keyboard connection) and possibly the bogus bluetooth
mouse (maybe, because it didn't see a wired mouse and figured you had
Hiya Listers,
Can anyone tell me why my G4 1.5 GHz Mini (OS X Tiger 10.4.2,
deliberately!) thinks I have a Bluetooth Mouse and insists I produce it?
I had to restart my Mini because it locked up when I plugged my USB
external HD into it (something I've done successfully before), but along

Try going into the bluetooth prefs and turn off blue tooth.
No can do. :-( I can't do ANYTHING with the Mini the way it is now. The

I can't just zero a drive. I always have to look first! LOL
Now we KNOW why you kept saying just zero the HD in the prior posts --

I think your problem is pretty simple. It sounds like you've connected
a DSL router to a switched network directly, and it doesn't work this
way.
