    DIY power adapter ok for Tiger, not for Leopard

    I recently detailed (in another thread) how I’d made a power supply for my Pismo using a stereo plug, an RCA plug, and an old Dell powerbrick. It’s still working fine, however when I installed Leopard on another partition the other day I noticed that there was an “x” in the battery icon and...

    Dashboard Launcher Widget for 10.4+

    Hi all, I've been working on a widget that acts as an app launcher (a la Launcher, Launchpad) for the dashboard. It's a pretty functional beta right now, but there are a few issues that still need hammered out before I can call it done for a real "1.0" app. I'm calling it dbLauncher, because...

    Live Streaming on PPC? Any hope for the G4?

    I've been restarting my classic mac collection! I have recently set up my Power Mac G4 MDD 1.25 DP and I was wondering if there was any live streaming software available for 10.4 Tiger, any version. My Mac technically can run Leopard, and probably Sorbet Leopard too, but anything past Tiger is...

    Been lurking for a while now just to cover my bases and not post an identical thread. I recently got my hands on a 2003 eMac, 4,4 800mhz. It's unfortunately got the CD drive and not the DVD drive, but the thing was $30 so 🤷‍♂️ I purchased some ram and a Mighty Mouse *cough* the best mouse...

    OSX version recommendations for 2005 eMac?

    I recently acquired a 2005 eMac for free (school was gonna throw it out) and it's currently running OSX Leopard 10.5.8. I've heard of the Sorbet Leopard project, and through some searching I've also found Shuriken Tiger. The eMac has a 1.42GHz G4, 80GB HDD and 512MB of RAM (planning to upgrade)...

    Invalid Disk Image With System Image Utility (SL Server)

    Hello, I am working on configuring Netboot on Snow Leopard Server. Previously, I had made a disk image of SL from a hard drive on a Mac with the OS on it. This image works, and when I mount it System Image Utility gives me options to create a Netboot disk image. However, when I mount a disk...

    Developing for Tiger and Leopard / PowerPC (a devlog)

    I thought I'd start a thread about how to develop applications for PowerPC Macs running Tiger and Leopard, as I learn to do so. (I know there is a programming-specific sub-forum here, but that's really oriented towards modern macOS / iOS development, so I figured this sub-forum is a better fit...

    Y'all have heard of Sorbet Leopard for PPC Macs right? But Leopard only runs on G4 and G5. not G3. So i was wondering. Could the developer of Sorbet Leopard make a version of Sorbet for G3 Macs with the same patches for the G3? Call it Sorbet G3/Tiger

    G5 won't accept OS 10.4.2

    I recently picked up a regrettable PowerMac G5 to stand in for my G4 Digital Audio which won't turn on. (I wish I had just replaced the power supply, but I was taken in by the G5's relative cheapness.) My entire purpose has been to maintain access to old files and applications, which I can't do...

Even with TenFourFox FPR 32 Intel on Snow Leopard (2.93GHz, 8GB RAM, NVIDIA 9600M GT 512MB) the modern YouTube.com is unusable due to how slow everything functions (even with uBlock legacy).
