Thats your problem there. You can't use the network with 10.3.4. It hasn't been solved yet. if you can get back to 10.3.3 then your network will work fine.

Networking works with 10.3.4 :blink:

Start with the networking commented out in your config, boot OSX, delete all network cards, shutdown PPC, put networking back into your config, reboot OSX & reinstall cards.

(puts hand up) i have higher res then 1024x768 working

Use this

##

## Resolution

##

## 0: 640x480x8 (indexed)

## 1: 640x480x15

## 2: 640x480x32

## 3: 800x600x8 (indexed)

## 4: 800x600x15

## 5: 800x600x32

## 6: 1024x768x8 (indexed)

## 7: 1024x768x15

## 8: 1024x768x32

## 9: 1280x960x8 (indexed)

## 10: 1280x960x16

## 11: 1280x960x32

## 12: 1280x1024x8 (indexed)

## 13: 1280x1024x16

## 14: 1280x1024x32

##

## The indexed modes are unsupported.

##

## default: 4

ppc_start_resolution = 14

Adding # to the beginning and making it equal 0

Taking it out completely is the same thing...at least is should be.

Note to a moderator:

This topic is over 130 pages: this is a huge problem. I've read 99% of it all, but most peopel who discovered PearPC today and find this thread will NOT read all of it. There is so much to talk about with PearPC that it almost deserves its own forum.

I don't have any real good suggestions on how to remedy this. Maybe a quick fix is to close this topic, start a new one, and keep closing / starting new topics? That doesn't seem to work well for a long time period. Maybe a subforum would be good?

Anyone else wanna comment on this?

Only way that I can think of to fix this thread would be for someone to create a guide using all the important points...there's just too much to talk about though :unsure:

Wish I could get networking going but i'm on a network and my router is using the ip 192.168.0.1 so I can't enable ICS.

Change your routers IP to 192.168.1.1 or just bridge the 2 connections.

I'm glad I've been reading it since day 1.

Me too! But I just hadn't have internet access for a day and the pages jump from 98 to 135!

I've been on this thread since day one too... I read neowin every day, browse the forums, but I don't post as often as I should :-X.

I haven't seen the current PearPC GUI for Windows (someone made one I believe)... but I'm working on one. If all goes well, I should have shots tomorrow! My plan: make it look sweet, work well, and be bug free (oh wait, thats every programmers plan :-X).

Edit: I forgot to ask.. can someone attach (or upload and link) a properly unjournaled formatted 15gb hard drive image (zipped really small :D). I started out with a 3gb image, and well, I'm full. Is there a precedure to extend an image file? What about me adding a second image hard drive and copying/resizing partition? It would be a bummer to reinstall again.. lol

You can make image files in OS X and restore them on other hard drives. You would have to backup your current 3gb one to windows over a network and then restore it later.
