This had only been seen in the Beige G3 before. So this explains why you and some people have this issue. The "issues" seem to go on and on ;-) Yes, the Powerlogix software is a great gift for OSX on old World machines. It also means no one needs to do any pin soldering. XPF beta 17 does seem to be a step in the direction we are hoping for. Will S -- SuperMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
