that cheap chinese products, in the EU these would probably not be allowed, just for the inhealthy offgasing. I bought a replacement bellows for my Linhof large format camera from china and it took almost a year till the chemical stench was gone. sorry for OT

..photos?

installed Puma 10.1 on the hdd, it runs better than Jaguar, trackpad now works but ethernet istill isnt recognized as expected..well

did your 1400 soga/glue repair go well? I often found the little noses of the caps broken off on my 1400 machines..

well no doubt that Jaguar or any more modern OSX run better on an iBook clamshell/white iBook/Tit..they do quite well with mSata/IDE combo..that was not the point. The Kangas are one of the rarest PBs that are out there ( only 6 month in production) and Apples earliest generic G3 in a PowerBook...

nice display..I think the 5300c's active matrix screens fits very well to the 190.. I installed Os8 via bluescsi and then did the 8.1 update, it runs quite ok with 24MB, and I prefer it over 7.6 a bit more because it has better networking the broken off battery connector..though it is very...

Well actually I was referring more to the behaviour of the SD card..meaning why is the old hdd still working better than the sd card with the jaguar install

installed the SD-IDE adapter combo again in the machine ( after formating it with SD Card formatter) and copied two installed partitions over to the SD..it works but the SD is behaving a bit strange.. it sometimes has problems copying larger files and the OSX Jaguar install didnt work this time...

good luck with your 5300c, post some photos of it.. I couldn't remove this crusty accumulation of battery electrolyte off the connector and also not sink just the whole powerboard completely in vinegar because of sensitive parts..

well I actually got this from Adam Savage on YT , he's a pro special effects technician ( MythBusters/star wars): minute 10:00 and yes, I was sceptical about this because basic superglue holds just so-so..but adding some baking soda (natriumhydrogencarbonate) to it, it immediately creates a...

I wanted to take a deeper look into the broken off closing hinge, not actually wanting to disassemble the display because it's in good condition (apart from the scratches). But interestingly I found that the broken off hinge nose was still stuck inside the display. so I tried the...

some RAM comparison 128MB from 3400c, not recognized in Kanga at all Kingston 64MB recognized in Kanga Memphis 96MB recognized in Kanga silkscreened text says Hooper PB3400

the idea with the needle is also not bad..I actually was trying to glue a tiny strip of a steel spring at the side, but the baking soda method works now. Jaguar 10.2. is up and running..well kinda..slow and trackpad is not working, maybe theres a little trackpad app? ..and ethernet are not...

ok, that infamous baking soda-and-superglue method actually works..not pretty but solid now fumbling around with XpostFacto a bit

Oh I got lucky..found a Kanga very cheap, wasnt expecting much from.. but: it runs..even has a RAM expansion card in it, 128MB in total..awesome just removed the green Varta PRAM battery, it even still has the back door. the back cover is a bit scratched up and the closing hinge has broken...

-edit-

the battery connectors on the 190 board just had some little green spots on them, I scratch them with a sharp hobby knive..they just chip off the connectors from the battery bombed 5300c from two weeks ago looked much worser, it wasnt salvageable, it just fell apart- if you only had one or...

cleaned out all the old grease on the rails etc, it works now, great..it only doesnt want to eject cds now, only with a needle
