1) CTRL-ALT-DEL now shuts the system down after I edited /etc/inittab 2) no modem what a pain! I did "modprobe macserial" which told me that the modem is on tty00. I installed minicom so I could confirm if the modem was being seen. It is. I tried setserail, pppconfig, pon. pon never worked, but after setting the modem to tty00 so minicom can see it pon now complains that it has an "unrecognized option '/dev/tty00'. Note that ttyS0 never worked - although it seems it should!
Any ideas? I spent a full day doing battle with man pages and docs trying to get the modem to work. 3) X windows is on hold until I get everything else working. 4) "sudo" is installed and working lsmod shows that I have the isa-pnp module installed. Surely I don't need this on an iMac? Sound is working! I installed mp3blaster so I can listen to music. The only problem I have here is that the sound comes out of the built-in iMac speakers as well as the external speakers. Perhaps the mp3blaster website has an answer to that one. Dave Turner
