Hi all. I have two PowerMAC G5's running MorphOS 3.18
One is 2.0 GHz PCI-e version
One is 2.7 GHz PCI-x version
I recently installed MorphOS 3.18 on them. I have noticed some things
1. The rdesktop application won't connect to my windows computer via the RDesktop GUI. Nothing happens. BUT, using the command line I can connect. When I run it in FULLSCREEN mode and move my mouse to the top centre of the screen (to bring down the menu bar) the entire system freezes. This happens on both PowerMACs.
2) I have added the Wookiechat icon to the panel, but when I try to delete it it hangs the panel app "application is mediating". In general I think deleting icons can cause panel to hang sometimes.
3) On the PowerMAC 2.7, if away from the computer a long time and the screen blanker shuts off the monitor, it won't come back on. I know the computer is still running because if I leave music playing I can still hear it. The only recourse is to power off/on the machine. The graphics card in this machine is an ATI 9650 Pro 256MB and I was using feathers screen blanker. I think it happens on all blankers though.
Has anyone else seen these issues?
Thanks!
Darren
