Hey everyone, How long does your iBook last in sleep mode? When I go to sleep, not plugged in, I can go from about 100% to 0% in about 9 hours. Is this normal? I thought sleep should be some sort of low power mode? Does anyone else have such short sleep capabilities? Is there something...

Well, I can tell you what it probably is, but not how to fix it :eek: You're getting an I/O System Error while trying to set an interrupt to handle the video card's Vertical Blanking [the 'vbl' part]. Your error, -18 is I believe a statusErr. Which would mean something like the driver for...

In my usage experience, I find VNC to be faster than PCAnywhere, you just have to have it tweaked. Turn off desktop background on the server, turn colors down to 256 on the server (I also turn the resolution down too, usually), bump compression up a couple notches on the client. Also...

Yeah, I bit the bullet last night and bought PlusOptimizer [ would have bought DiskWarrior too, but didn't want to wait for the CD just to get PlusOptimizer]. The graph of my drive was pretty horrendous...I also turned colors down to thousands, enabled window buffer compression, did the...

Here's a little trick when recording to your MD: Create a blank ~3 second mp3. When you're creating your iTunes playlist, insert the blank.mp3 in for every other song. MD automagically creates the breaks. :-) (Or search for QTPlay or PlayQT on versiontracker) I also remember reading a...

Haha, you guys crack me up. I'm so jealous of your startup times. It takes me > 6 minutes to boot up to login prompt [sometimes as much as 10], and then another 3-4 minutes until everything is loaded up. Starting up IE is about 65 bounces. All this on a 01 iBook dual USB, 384M, stock...

I do it all the time...helps to telecommute to the office servers. I actually prefer VNCDimension, fast, small, and seems to be more reliable than VNCThing.

Interesting, I've got a dual USB iBook (500), same specs, same system, etc. No major changes, no external devices, yet my startup times all seem a bit slower then your "slow" times. I can't figure it out, it takes about 20 minutes to boot up. I've searched through the logs, nothing of note...
