Grunt groan - don't know if I'm gonna make it for the new year - sys hung while watching a movie - didn't like the restart and now is not using altivec which slows it down 100% ..
P'book 667 G4
Not too familar with altivec... I know it's an enhancer for Mac, like SSE2 and SSE3 is for the PC, but after that, it's *shrug*
Perhaps one of the others on the team, know of Mac peculiarities....
I do know, in the brief period that I had a G4, OSx, there were a few programs that did not play well when they were started up in console mode, from a cold start. Perhaps shutting it down, making sure Altivec is running ok, and then restarting... and then giving it 10 minutes or so to adjust to the system clock...
Other than that... *shrug*
