Hi, Does anyone know if it's possible to dedicate say 2 or more cores on an octocore system to a designated application? I know there is the renice utility but that doesn't dedicate certain cores to processing a task, it just sets priority.

Hi, I reset the firmware, but I still get the yaboot bootloader at startup. I've been trying to find some instructions on how to remove yaboot, but I have come up with nothing. any suggestions? I tried posting at the yellow dog forum.

any suggestions on the best way to reset the firmware? can I do that in the terminal app from the Tiger boot cd? what about removing the grub loader? thanks in advance.

Hi, My Blue and White G3 will not boot after it stalled upgrading to 10.4.6. In addition for some reason now... and old yellow dog linux grub loader is booting up on restart, which prevents me from going into single user mode. So I need to remove the grub loader. I tried fishing around...

Hi all, I'm running postfix, qpopper, bincimap, and squirrelmail on 10.3.9. postfix and qpopper work fine. I can send and receive mail with them. I setup bincimap so I could have an IMAP server for squirrelmail. I finally got IMAP up and running and the squirrelmail test file gave ok...

well it was the Sonnet Encore card that was causing the crashes... It was the last piece of hardware that I swapped out... I haven't crashed OS X since removing the Encore card (I've been running the system pretty much non stop for 5 days). Sonnet's support site states that any PCI cards...

I have 20 GB's of free space on the startup disk. so that's plenty. system hasn't crashed yet.. hopefully I've isolated the problem to the Sonnet processor card. we'll see.....

well if it does crash I'll swap in the 128 DIMM's. it's been 6 hours without a crash. I'm on my ibook now and I'm monitoring the Sawtooth box with ssh and VNC... I don't run Norton Antivirus so that can't be it. It's a clean install - I don't have any kind of 3rd party software running...

well I'm back to the original configuration for my Sawtooth with the exception of a 3rd party 512 MB DIMM. so I'm poking along at 400 Mhz and with the lame ass ATI Rage video card with 16 MB of VRAM. this system is so slow now that I experience extreme physical pain just trying to get...

Ok, I pulled the upgraded Nvidia card from the G4 and installed the Original ATI Rage AGP card. I also pulled (2) 128 MB DIMM Memory chips from the system. I left the 64 MB factory chip in and a 512 MB 3rd party DIMM. Well my system didn't crash for a day. Then today is crashed about 5...

Yes I think it is hardware. I ran TechTool Pro on the system and it found no problems with the hardware. but it is mostly likely a hardware issue of some kind. I'm hoping it's one of the Video cards. I guess I'll have to start swapping out hardware.

One other think to note. I'm using a Western Digital Drive which is not the original drive that came with my G4. Could that be the source of the problem?

I had another hard crash today. I booted up the system and left it at the login prompt for about 30 minutes. When I tried to login the system was frozen. I checked the console and system log and found nothing that can track down the crash. here's system.log right before the crash. Mar...

Hello all, I'm running 10.3.8 on a Sawtooth G4 with a Sonnect 1.2 Ghz upgrade card. I also replaced the original AGP ATI card with a Nvidia GeForce2 32MB Vram. And I have a Rage ATI card in one of the PCI cards for dual monitor support. I also have an Audiowerk2 card installed in...
