Keeping my own thread up to date for other folks to follow along. I bought some spare parts on eBay of a matching model PBG4. Here’s a photo of the PRAM module that lives by the DVD drive. These are “CGL2430” batteries from Panasonic. Wired in series, I think? 3.7V. At least one tab is both...

Okay maybe an easier question - it looks like these are a pair of tagged 3032 rechargeable coin batteries? And it runs them in tandem? I'm thinking of grabbing a few of the Panasonic VL3032-F2n to pair together, thoughts?

So I have a 1.33GHZ/17" Powerbook 5,3. It gets quite upset if the main battery runs out of charge. Boots to a shrill alarm unless I give it a few minutes to juice up, and loses date & time. Basically, exactly the expected symptoms of a dead PRAM battery. In these, the battery is on a board with...

Ok! I think I have it right now. This is why I treasure PRs in modern dev settings. #define kNumLines 50 // Can be higher for more linearity! #define kMoveToFront (WindowPtr)-1L #define kRandomUpperLimit 32768 #define kEmptyString "\p" #define kEmptyTitle...

Aha, well that fixed the bounding box issues, still seems to redraw the same pattern. My fault for copy/pasting and editing the repetitive parts. Can you blame me?

This is a frigging enormous code block, so I apologize in advance. I formatted a bit differently from the book, but functionally this should match. Not sure if indentation will carry. #define kNumLines 50 // Can be higher for more linearity! #define kMoveToFront (WindowPtr)-1L...

Regarding the last of the four exercises. Not sure if I’m missing something here, but I’m getting the same set of lines drawn on repeat. Is that a program limit, or did I skip a line on accident? I tried calling init in the main loop but boy does that make a mess. Maybe that and some cleanup are...

Nope, still a blank. Sometimes a single pixel or line at most. Not sure where this relates to the current chapter without sharing code. Maybe better in its own thread?

On my IIfx I get pretty much a blank screen. Are any of the drop down menus meant to be working? I can get a new scene, it shows a couple specks, when I click on that they go away. None of the menus seem to do much of anything.

It's interesting too in the second chapter we're reading. There's a lot of referencing to the Toolbox functions and those are, apparently, Pascal style. I bet this is going to trip me up more than once. Anyone else have to read through that part a few times?

I believe if you keep the machine offline during install, and use a key, it'll stick to that. Don't hold me to it though.

I think Creative Suite 3 or 4 should run on 10.4.11. I'm not 100% on how well at 466MHz.

New to this forum! Jupo talked me in to participating in this. My system 7.1 setup needs some love anyway. Still debating between the built in editor or BBEdit.
