Well I guess the OSX install just went too well to be true. I'm not certain what the problem is but I think it may be related to a corrupted Powerlogix Control Panel I installed from Versiontracker. Things haven't been fine since. :(
Anyway, I am having some System problems. Primarily, it often freezes during bootup. When I Cold boot, I often (not always) have to force restart at least 3 times. It either freezes during the spinning spoke process or the spoke just spins forever. It's acting kind of like a Startup Extension Conflict in the old OS. If I boot into 9.1 and then xpostfacto my way into X, then it usually takes but not always and I will still have to force restart. I also now have very occasional crashes while it's running in X such as with some action I take like closing a window, but those aren't very often. I was able to uninstall the Powerlogix CP with Will's help. I reinstalled a good one direct from Powerlogix but that didn't fix things so I deinstalled it again and have the Sonnet X software running right now. Because it was a corrupted Powerlogix Installer, I'm still wondering if there is something broken running around my system that couldn't get removed? I have tried running DW. I have also run the Disk Permission and Repair Utilities. While each fixed a few things, they didn't fix the problem, whatever it be. I have also re-run the 10.2.8 installer. Not sure this makes a diff but the X startup screen when using xpost is much cleaner then from doing a cold start or reboot. Usually then the vertical lines then are kinda scrambled. I am running an s900, G4 400 Sonnet card, plenty of ram and OS 10.2.8. I'm also using a TwinTurbo and am wondering if there is an app I was supposed to install for OSX as well? I am in X right now and is going fine but it would probably be good to weed out what is causing the problems cause they will probably propagate other issues if not. I appreciate any ideas that can be offered. How does one rule out if there is a Startup type Extension Conflict in X? Thanks, Dave -- SuperMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
