10.2.8 problem

[tk4two1]

I've been searching all over to find a fix for 10.2.8 on a beige G3 that the screen goes black while doing certain tasks like repairing permissions and software update. Does anyone remember how to fix this? I used to know but have forgotten due to the fact that I only use 10.3 now.

this also happenes when you have the screensaver or turn of screen on "never"?

Still does it. its not the screensaver. it has something to do with a video driver or something. I just can't remember what it was exactly and how to fix it. I happened to almost everyone with a beige G3.

It's a bug with OS X:

I don't remember there ever being a fix, though. Apple has some things you can try, though:

That seemed to work. Thanks Hoss
