    G4 + Adelie + Rage 128 + Action retro’s xorg.conf = no screens found

    Actually, that's just standard 4x AGP, not AGP PRO, which looks like this: To retain use of ADC, you can use this: https://www.ebay.com/itm/224816083711?

    G4 + Adelie + Rage 128 + Action retro’s xorg.conf = no screens found

    Honestly, i'd try a GeForce 2 MX before trying for a Radeon 9000 - cheaper to get hold of, for sure. Of course, if you get a Radeon, i'd go for the 9600 as used in the G5 models: https://www.ebay.com/itm/224274109458

    Tunnel vision on PB170

    Just noticed, its the same part number that's sold by applemacparts - so should fit :)

    Tunnel vision on PB170

    They're a reputable seller, I've bought case parts for my 6100 from them before. If I can have a part number for the panel, I'll do some more digging.

    Broken RAM socket on SE - replacement options?

    @wottle yes, get a desoldering gun, remove them, clean the holes, and then use these: https://www.peconnectors.com/sockets-pga-cpu-and-memory/hws9229/ They're a direct fit.

    Macintosh SE Won't Boot System 7

    @Zane Kaminski from Garrett's Workshop might be able to help you with a set of 4x1MB SIMM's :) Or there's Keystron, MemoryMasters etc

    Cube G4 450 running Adélie? Nah. OpenBSD maybe?

    I guess its the same issue as the other *nix/BSD distro's - the driver for the Rage is far too old to really work with the newer kernels. I'd be tempted to see how it works with older versions of certain distro's - say, from around 2008 or so.

    Power Macintosh G4 - 733

    I didn't replace the chips myself but @dosdude1 and @HrutkayMods have done similar before - just remove the old chips, install the new ones (in this case, iirc the cache chips might have also been replaced), then set the jumper resistors correctly. MO drives are usually plug and play, i have a...

    Macintosh SE Won't Boot System 7

    I'd actually say, check the serial side of things. We discovered a minor bug with the SE Reloaded when trying system 7, @max1zzz figured out we were missing grounds to the SCC chip. System 7 implemented a test for working serial, it seems.

    Power Macintosh G4 - 733

    Well, i finally managed to get hold of the dual CPU heatsink, and i've managed to, with the help of @Zane Kaminski , purchased two Dual 800MHz CPU cards for a quicksilver. These have also been further modified with a pair of G4 7455's, and overclocked to 1.2GHz running cool as a cucumber. I have...
