Beginner CSS problems and questions

I'm trying to learn CSS, but first, I have to knock out this simple site for a client, CSS or not, asap.
Problem #1:
Here is the page: http://larrysullivandesign.com/sourceprintmedia.com/_contact.html
Here is the style sheet: http://larrysullivandesign.com/sourceprintmedia.com/sourceprintmedia.css
I want the email link the same font size as the text around it, which is:
class="bodycopy-content"
I don't understand why it appears in the text-links page bottom (class="link-typeA") size.
Problem #2:
Dreamweaver WYSIWYG shows the text links at page bottom in the #00F blue, (see attached jpg: "scrncap_DW_WYSIWYG.jpg) when clearly they should display only as the grey in the external stylesheet. In the browser, they look good. Frustrating, DW bug?
Problem #3:
I tried to merge all the CSS into one style sheet but no matter what I try, DW won't let me. Now I have 3 CSS categories. (see attached jpg "scrncap-csspanel.jpg") How come I can't have any/all style sheets in one?
thanks in advance!

Problem #1:
You have defined a font size (8px - which btw, renders extremely small on my 1440x900 laptop, suggestion to follow) for the "a" tag. Because of this any link regardless of where it is will be that font size. Personally speaking I would recommend taking the font-size off of the "a" tag in your CSS document and then let the other classes control the font size throughout your page.
Problem #2:
You defined a class fine, but links do not work on a class. They will always work on a:link, a:active, a:visited, and a:hover. With this in mind what you need to do to change the color of links in a particular area is to do the following:
.link-typeA a { CSS stuff goes here }
That will change the links in that class to have certain features.
Problem #3:
This has to do with code in the header of your page where you have re-declared link styles. Delete that from your page and you will be set
Now back to Problem #1 about the fonts. Your best bet is to use "em" to define your font size. Think of the EM like a multiplier. It takes the default size of the end-users settings and 1.1em would be 1.1x larger than the default font, 2em would be twice as large, and .5em would be half the size. This way your text is readable on all screens regardless of the end-users resolution.

Some problems and questions using OWB

For Igor or anyone who can help me :-)
Hello Igor,
Thanks for all your help concerning my mapping deployment problem! Now its working better ;-)
I used the OWB Runtime Assistant to create a new runtime target schema and i use the owner of this schema as user while logging to OWB.
Now i can create and deploy without problems mappings, tables, functions, procedures, packages, dimensions, views, materialized views, process flows (i have installed the Oracle Workflow Client 2.6.2.0.0 with OWF builder and OWF mailer ).
However I have still some problems and questions :-)
a) After deploying a mapping or process flow i can execute them from OWB Deployment Manager. How can i schedule the execution of a deployed precess without using OWBDM ? (I want to execute a process every day to perform ETL).
b) I think i have a problem deploying cubes. I create a cube in OWB, the validation is OK, the deploment succeds, but if i look with OEMC in the tree in the Warehouse OLAP section no cube is created. Only the fact tabe is created. If i look to the scripts from the Pre Deployment generation results i found DDLs only for TABLE, INDEX, UNIQUE KEY, FOREIGN KEY and ANALYZE object types, meanwhile during a dimension deployment i found also a DDL for the DIMENSION type object. WHY ?
c) If I look in the procedures of the new created OWB Runtime Target Schema I found 3 procedures which are in error and when I try to compile them I receive the following error messages :
- procedure WB_OLAP_LOAD_CUBE
PLS-00201: identifier 'DBMS_AWM.CREATE_AWCUBELOAD_SPEC' must be declared
- procedure WB_OLAP_LOAD_DIMENSION
PLS-00201: identifier 'DBMS_AWM.CREATE_AWDIMLOAD_SPEC' must be declared
- procedure WB_OLAP_LOAD_DIMENSION_GENUK
PLS-00201: identifier 'DBMS_AWM.CREATE_AWDIMLOAD_SPEC' must be declared
How can solve this problem? Is there any link with the fact that the cube is not generated?
d) When I first acces the deployed DIM in the OEMC tree I receive a message saying that the dimension does not have complete metadata as needed for use by Oracle OLAP services (because is created either in an earlier version of Oracle database or it was created by an an other application than OEMC) and OEMC automatically generates the default needed metadata. Is this normal ?
I work in an environment with
- Oracle 9i Database 9.2.0.1.0
- Oracle 9i Client 9.2.0.1.0
- Oracle 9i Warehouse Builder Products 9.2.0.2.8

Some problems and questions

I have some problems and questions about my MSI MEGA PC 180 system...
One problem is that MSI live monitor only works one time after every new installation then is just say "The URL is invalid" every other time I try to search for updates.
One problem is that one of the fans doesn't turn off when I turn of the computer and the only way to get i to turn off is to turn on the hifi mode and turn it off then the fan stops. And some times the fan can start after a while when the computer has been turned off.
There are two fans for the cooling of the CPU but PCALERT only shows the speed of one of them.. why? according to the manual one of the is called CPU fan and the other one is called sysfan but only CPU fan showes i PCALERT.
Are there no other way to control the Tv other than with the Home Teather system than I find way to slow if you use 1280x1024 resolution on the screen like I do. And are there no way to sort and remove channels in home teather? As i is now I can't move the channels in the order I want and I can't remover channels that the auto search thaught was channels but aren't?
An other thing that I find annoying is that the fullscreen mode of home teather doens't cover all off the screen it doesn't hide the systray and leaves a small but annoying kolumn to the right that showes the backgrund and that is very annoying to watch tv if you have a light backgrund because the kolumn are so bright.

Welcome Kabbo,
I see you agree that MC III is far from perfect. Perhaps you can try the combination of Media Portal and Ir2Key. Just read some of the other posts including "WinIRX.ocx internals/usage" by ddookie. Another possibility is to try Dscaler, but this program is only for watching TV.
Regarding the processor fans: its normal that only one of the two shows up in PcAlert; when you look closely to both fans you'll see that one has only a two-wired connection.
The problem of a fan not shutting down is new to me, I suppose you have checked the connections to your mobo?

Beginner's peeves and questions

I have just really started working in Muse this week and this is my beginner's list of things I think need to change or be included (save for font issues). I've worked in ID, PS and IL for over ten years and Muse does not feel like part of the Adobe family.
If anyone had answers to my questions or I'm missing some things, please holler! Thanks!

PlayBook .. problem and question

hi
I have a problem and a question
the problem is i connect my bold 9700 with the playbook by the bridge. it connected sucsseful and i can open the files, messeges, notes, calendar.. etc. the problem is the bbm cant opened. it stuck in the loading wheel screen. i wait for more than 30 min. but nothing happened.
the bbm version is 5.0.3.22
the bridge in the bold is 1.0.0.83
the playbook software is 1.0.3.1868
thanks

Well, I'm surprised that this is playing you up. Anyway, before doing anything else I'd try deleting ALL bluetooth associations on the BB and the PB, uninstall the Bridge App. Reboot both devices and try again. You never know...
If it STILL doesn't work:
I'd suggest a couple of things.
1 - I'm running 6.0.0.534 with no trouble - give that a go. Backup first, obviously.
2 - Try installing and connecting the Bridge before you restore all of your data and apps. If it works, then restore and try again.
I'm working on the assumption that either that particular OS is causing trouble (unlikely), or that there is something on your phone that is meddling with the Bluetooth connection somehow.
Good luck!

T30 Problems and Questions

Ok I have a T30 that I do not know what could cause the problem and thought I could post the question here and see what other users could recommend trying.
First off all Keyboard functions work properly.
Second the power button and such works properly
Now the led lights for power, hard drive activity, battery indication, these do not work.
I think the power button and these LED's are on the same board, although I could be wrong. But it just seems odd that none of the LEDs including the ones on the lower side of the display are working.
Any ideas on what could cause this? Anything I can check? All assistance greatly appreciated.

It's been years since I've last opened a T30. And even back then, I was not playing around with the fuses.
To make one thing perfectly clear: these fuses are *NOT* meant to be user replaceable and you're looking at a board level repair involving components that are beyond tiny. Unless you're very experienced with a soldering iron, you may just want to get a replacement board or an entire barebone T30...at today's prices, that's what I would do.
Good luck.

You cannot increase the font size of S60 3rd edition handsets as it is not a feature they support, you can however download an application called font magnifier from Nokia Software Market http://www.softwaremarket.nokia.com
You unfortunatlye cannot get WLAN for the E50-1 either as there needs to be hardware support for this feature too. The E50-1 was the entry level Eseries handset more voice centric therefore no 3G or Wi Fi.
As for the multi tasking, all S60 devices support multi tasking, simply hold down the menu key to open task bar, if you need to minimize an app and keep it running in the backround, simply press the menu key once when in that app, do whatever you need to then hold down the menu key again and select your previous app from the task bar to continue!
PS: Don't keep to many apps running to prevent slowness and?or freezing

Udev kernel 2.6 boot problems and questions

Hello there.. During these days I'm trying to install a new linux kernel. I have the insane Idea of installing an old kernel. I compiled the "new" old kernel and I can't manege to get it to work efficently..
I keep receiving a message this message during the boot.
Failed to start udev Kernel Device Manager
Although I followed the requirements for undev related to the kernel 2.6
Why am I trying to install and older kernel? Well, the my reason is simple: my laptop keyboard that it's so annoying.. Every once and then it's not recognized at boot and it force me to reboot the system even for 4 or 5 times consequintely..
With the kernel 2.6 I never had such problems and so I thought It was worth trying..
Another interesting question that keep coming to my mind is related to the kernel that it's been update after pacman -Syu.
I notice that in /usr/src there is a a new directory eithe the new kernel called linux-3.9.5-1-ARCH, well if I try to build the kernel inside thi directory I get a message
linux-3.9.5-1-ARCH]# make
scripts/Makefile.build:44: /usr/src/linux-3.9.5-1-ARCH/arch/x86/syscalls/Makefile: No such file or directory
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `/usr/src/linux-3.9.5-1-ARCH/arch/x86/syscalls/Makefile'. Stop.
make: *** [archheaders] Error 2
The linux-headers are seems to be correctly installed to me...
Any Idea or explanation or suggestion would be very appreciated.
Thank you

Arch userspace is too new to survive with an older kernel. This isn't going to end well for you.
If you want your keyboard to function properly, I suggest you file bugs against the relevant parties and work with them to get actually get it fixed rather than go down this bizzare rabbit hole.
edit: even our LTS kernel (3.0.x) is too old for Arch userspace.

K7N2-L motherboard problems, and questions!

I'm not sure if this is the right place for this, but I think it is.
I have a K7N2-L motherboard that is giving me fits! I can't find this board in the data base to try and trouble shoot my issue, either.
Here's my questions:
Problem 1) There are three empty spaces in the floppy drive connection (plug) of this motherboard. Two of the spaces are in the second row, and are side by side, and don't appear to have ever had pins installed. This may be normal. These two empty spaces (blue X's) correspond to spots that don't even have holes through the motherboard to even install any pins. However, the third missing connector pin does appear to have had a pin soldered into it (red X), but now there is no pin. Also, when I attempt to start the system, the motherboard does post and will allow you to enter the BIOS set up. However, at the same time, I get a "Floppy Drive - FAILURE" warning during this part of the start up. This indicates to me that the drive is not being detected, and it may be caused by the suspected missing pin (red X). Here is a crude visual of the floppy plug lay out in question. The green I's indicate existing pins, and the X's the missing pins. The blue X's are the ones that appear to never have had pins, but the red X appears to have had a pin, as it's soldered, but is missing. Please, note the notch at the top of this crude illustration for proper orientation of the plug. If you have any info on this, please, give me some insight as I can't find any way of referencing this problem.

Floppy Connector Layout
Problem 2) It's possible this problem is a BIOS problem, and could be corrected with a BIOS update. However, since I don't currently have a floppy drive, I can't update the BIOS. I've set the BOOT priority in the BIOS as, 1-Floppy; 2-CD-Rom; 3-HDD0. However, the board selecting the devices in the proper order, and thus I can't get any of my drive to boot from either a CD or a Hard disc. I do know that the processor I'm using is good, as it came out of another operating system board. The processor is an AMD Duron 1800/266 FSB. Here's what is being seen with the BIOS with regards to the processor. If, in the BIOS, I set the FSB to 100MHz the processor shows as a 1200MHz processor instead of an 1800. However, when I reset the BIOS FSB to 133MHz (as it should be) the BIOS now shows the processor as a 1900+. Neither of these is correct. Any ideas as to what may be going on?
Thanks in advance.........

Hi
I just checked 8 motheboards that I have laying around from MSI, Asus, Intel and Biostar. The pin location that you have marked in red does not have a pin in it. The ones that you marked in blue do have pins in them. If you are not the original owner, it may be that someone tried to replace a couple of broken pins and gave up.
A bios update should take care of the failure to recognize your Duron 1800. I have provided a link where you can see the later bios revisions.

VOD - Problems and Questions

I'm in VHO 7 and use VOD all the time mainly for the network shows and premium subscriptions. Been having a tone of problems with VOD not being updated for days/ sometimes weeks at a time on and off for these past 6+ months . Also have the bizzar hourglass icon which has taken the place of the 'new' and red triangle icons. None of the free titles show the avaiable until date. A big problem also is that many times the HD VOD does not match the SD vod - folders available in both sections will not have the same episodes or HD will be missing episode thats available in SD. I've contacted Verizon nearly every way possible, so now I'm turning to this forum to see if anyone else is having the same problems and to see if anyone has any support? Maybe by chance someone at verizon will offer an explanation? Twitter has failed, emailing them through contact us has failed, tech support has failed - what else is there?
I'd also like to know why verizon does not offer all the HD VOD available on the market? I have used Comcast, TImeWarner, and Cablevision VOD in the past and they all have a ton of free HD VOD from the networks that verizon does not offer. They even offer HD VOD of networks not even aviable in HD on the network. I sent the same message to the person who runs FIOSTV twitter and he replyed the with standard issue PR message claiming Verizon offers nearly all HDVOD available and its up to the providers. We all know thats a load of crap. I like the service or I wouldn't still be with them. Just do not like lame excuses and poor response to problems.

Hi we just went to a one bill with fios TV int and wireless and within the first week of service I was already on the phone trying to find out why I lied to too. vod is advertised as to be on demand within 24hrs of original air date but I wasn't receiving most of them for several days later if not a week later. So I called and spent several hours on the phone and all they told me was everything on their end was working fine and they put out a trouble ticket so I got a phone call and we talk and I said why I'm I not getting them on time and I was told bc it's up to when the tv stations release it to them and then they would release to us and I told them that's not the way vod works I told them to provide a service like that theirs a contract between Verizon and the carrier's so he said he would keep a trouble ticket and I would here something back within 48hrs I waited 3 days and I called back only to find that the ticket was gone they told me the reason for that was he put in problem resolved and we were no where close to fixing the issue so I spent more time on the phone with someone different only to here the same thing and I told them the same thing and he finally called someone else and he got back on the phone and said I was right the reason why I don't get vod on time BC I'm not in a high volume market Verizon has states and county's broke down into blocks and were I live is a low volume market so it doesn't get released to me within the 24hrs. But if I lived in a high volume market like a big city with lots of customers I would get it. After my one year contract I'm done withem. comcast has no issues with this problem in my area and that's were I'm headed and this is not the only issue I've had hope this helped

Beginner CSS multiple stylesheet Question...

Hi,
I am a complete beginner. I've followed through the Dreamweaver beginner 'Check Magazine' tutorial to create a site and it's straghtforward. My site is small, a tourist guide, basically a three column/main image homepage like the tuotorial and then around 25 pages featuring different places with identical main column and a thinner right column layout. (I've created a template for the 25)
My question is regarding CSS stylesheets. Now obviously I have used the CSS stylesheet to set the size and background colour etc of my Div Columns in the homepage as in the tutorial. But my 25 pages have different column widths and background colours to the homepage. Do I need to create a seperate stylesheet for each page?
Or does each div column get a different name on each page? (div#right_column 1,2,3 etc) Or I need to learn another step?
I've looked in the beginner guides and they all explain one stylesheet, but don't elaborate for when you start adding new pages and want to edit them.
I know I have a lot to learn! But I don't want to go further learning a bad habit or misunderstanding and wasting a lot of time when a simple answer would really help me at this stage. It's fine if someone knows a good guide or tutorial that covers this that they can link to as well.
Thanks in advance!

If I understand this correctly, your home page is the only one that has unique styles. The other 25 site pages share the same styles.
Create one external stylesheet for the 25 pages.
Use embedded CSS on the home page for styles that are specific to that page.
Embedded CSS goes in the HTML document between the <head> and </head> tags like so.
<style type="text/css">
unique page styles go here....
</style>

Resizing and editing Components Design - Some problems and questions at CQ5

Hello everyone,
I'm building a website application following the http://dev.day.com/docs/en/cq/current/howto/website_quick.html guide (using the cq 5.5). The thing is, when I drop an image component on the site and drop some image into this one, the component resize my image. Even if I double click the image component and change the size, there's kind of a "maximum" size. I don't wanna change this one by css properties because if my user change the picture or drop a new one in the page, the change will not be applied to this new one.
So, my question is, there's a way to configure the component to get the size i'm inputing on the dialog, without "limits"? Below some images of what i'm doing.
The second problem I found is with the "text & image component". I've inserted the "right" alignment for the image in the styles tab, but the image stays on top of the text, and there's nothing I can do to solve this in the input dialog. Don't wanna use the css for the same reason that I've explained before.
All the components are imported from fundation.
So, there is something I can do to change the design of my components?
Thanks in advance,
Matheus de Oliveira.

For the issue you are having with the maximum size there are couple of possiblity.
The firstpossiblity is that your CSS is enforcing a maximum size. So to check this take the src from you img tag and put in a browser and see if you get the original size or not. If you get the right size when viewing the image URL than you do in the page than the issue is CSS. Depending on how you have designed your site's CSS there might be any number reasons it's limiting the image size but whatever the reason it's an implementation question.
The second option is that design mode of the image component. The default install has a maximum image size set in design mode of the image component. Switch your page to design mode and verify that the maximum image size is not set in the design dialog.
A final option is that the DAM is enforcing the maximum size. In CQ 5.5 the default configuration is to create a web ready rendition with a maximum height and width fo 1200 x 1200. The out of the box components and the out of the box image rendering script will use this web ready rendition if it is present rather than the original image.
To check if this is your problem do the following:
Go to the workflow model console and edit the Update Dam Asset workflow.
Delete the step in the workflow named Web Ready Rendition
Upload a new image that is larger than 1200 x 1200 to the DAM
Try and use that image in an image component - it should display at the original size.

Library problem and question.

I'm sure that if I could check through the whole of the topic list and read all of the threads that seem to be relevant, I might find the answer,but I don't have enough time, and I don't know how to compose a search that would find me the answers I need accurately enough. I have two matters I need help with.
(1) When the betas of LightRoom came out, I thought I would give it a try as it seemed to do what I wanted in terms of importing my photos and maintaining a database. Fundamentally it does, but as a result of the experimentation I did, things are a little confused in terms of the library.
I'm using a MacBook Pro with an external desktop HD, and I have recently bought a 120GB "pocket" HD. I am now shooting in RAW all the time, but some of the photos in the library are JPGs from my previous camera. My plan is to use the pocket drive to store the photos on, with a back-up on the desktop external. What I am currently doing is using DNG Converter to pull them off the card and save them on the pocket drive. Then I import the DNGs into LightRoom and organise them in collections. However, I also have many many JPGs from my previous camera which I would like to import. They are rather scattered in terms of where they are located.
The Library is currently the one that I set up when originally trialling the beta; it is on the HD of the MacBook Pro, backed up to the desktop HD, but there is another library on that HD that I set up while experimenting which contains other photos which I need to bring into a single library. I really feel I need to redo it completely starting again from scratch so that I can bring everything together in a better organised manner. What would be the best way to do that? And what is the best location for the library database?
(2) The last time I imported some photos -- having done the DNG conversion and saved them to the pocket drive -- I then dragged them in batches to appropriate collection folders. However, for some of them, they do not appear in the folder I dragged them to, nor in any of the others ... they only appear in the overall "Library: all photographs" and "Library: Previous import". How can I retrieve them so that I can put them in the appropriate collection folder so that I can include them in the gallery based on that? The original DNGs are still in the folder on the pocket drive.
Sorry, this has been long and rambling, but I would really appreciate any help and advice.

Thanks for the reply Sean. <It sounds like you expect to be able to drag images from Previous Import into a folder. > I fear that is what I may have tried to do with these particular photos the first time when they got lost, but it is not what I normally do. I have a folder on the pocket drive called DNGs. Within this are a number of sub-folders for different sets of photos, Xiada, Longyan, Wuyishan, etc. When I use DNG Converter to take the RAW images off the card I have it put them in the main DNG folder, because for instance there may be some photos of flowers among them that I want eventually to go in the Flora sub-folder and photos of buildings that I want to go in the Xiada folder, even though all the photos were actually taken on the Xiada campus. When I import them into LR, they are found in a folder in the left pane of LR called DNGs. From there I drag them into the appropriate sub-folders, each time getting an alert about moving the photos on the disk. As I say, with the 9 photos in question, thinking back I may have dragged them from the "Previous Import". The result is that although the DNGs in question are invisible within LR, even though I deleted them rather than removed them, and I have gone through the whole process starting from getting them off the card again using DNG Converter, and they are now visible in the DNG folder in LR, when I drag them from there to the folder I want them in, LR issues an alert that "A file named P1000xxx.dng already exists at the destination" and doesn't move it, even though that photo is not visible. Again, as I said, on my desktop external drive, there is a parallel folder structure to the one on the pocket drive, and looking at the relevant folder using the finder, photos of those names are in that. I can delete them using the finder, but am worried that if I do so, the LR database will be corrupted. On the other hand, as they are there, but LR doesn't show them in the library, perhaps it is only the system that knows they are there and not LR, so deleting them will not affect the library. I guess the thing to do is to export all the photos in the library to a new location as DNGs with the metadata to XMPs, ready to redo the whole library set up from scratch fortunately I am only dealing with a few hundred photos, not thousands or tens of thousands and then try deleting them. If the current library is corrupted, then I can make a new one I was going to wait until 1.1 and do that anyway and if it doesn't then I should be able to do the move into the folders without problem. Also thinking round this, I should perhaps be using collections rather than folders anyway, so I must explore that for future reference. Mark in China

Alarm clock problem and question

My son is having problems with the alarm on his iPhone 3G. Sometimes it simply does not go off. He has tried resetting, it didn't help. I searched the forums and noticed that some other people have had the same problem. Perhaps the upcoming software update may help.
In the meantime, here is my question. There are several alarm clock apps in the app store. If he downloads one of those to use, will the battery drain be increased? He has heard that non apple apps like alarm clocks really drink up the battery life.
Any hints, clarifications, etc. greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

I'm in Iraq and I use my alarm daily, to wake me up. I haven't had a problem, until I updated my phone to the 3.0 version software. I'm going to try to email support to see if there is a fix coming out; and if not, to notify them of the problem. I suggest anyone with this problem, do the same.

DBT-120 Problems and Questions

I'm having two different problems with two different DBT-120s. The DBT-120 (H/W B3) which I've been using for nearly two years is suddenly working sporadically at best. The lights only come on for about 10-20 sec and then go dark, and the only way to lite them is to remove and replace it in the USB. I have to try this time and again for 20 minutes before it will finally discover my Apple wireless keyboard and mouse. The problem exists without regard to the USB port used, so that's not the issue. I suspected that it was simply failing after a lifetime of solid use, so I purchased another one. The new DBT-120, now H/W C1, lights perfectly but does not discover the keyboard or mouse at all, under any circumstances that I can determine. My system meets the minimum standards as listed on the packaging. I've also tried to update the firmware, but my system informed me that it was not needed.
Two questions: 1) Is there some underlying reason why the C1 120 will not work with my K/M, which were both the first such bluetooths released by Apple?
2) Am I right in assuming that the B3 120 was failing, or is there something else going on here?

I, too, have just encountered a significant problem with the DBT-120 (v. 3). It worked fine for several weeks (I purchased it from the Apple online store at the end of March), but, I think, BT was interfering with my Apple Airport base station, so I disabled BT--although I kept the DBT plugged in to a USB port. Yesterday I attempted to connect a new Mighty Mouse using the DBT-120. Nada. The light on the DBT-120 would not work. I plugged it into several different USB ports (and even my Windows laptop) and it still wouldn't work. I checked with D-Link. The technician told me the problem was with the BT software on the Mighty Mouse CD. I tried to uninstall the software, but I don't think I succeeded. At any rate, I believe the problem is with the DBT and have so advised D-Link. Awaiting a response. (There's supposed to be a year warranty. Apple, by the way, will not honor this; the company refers buyers of 3rd-party equipment to the manufacturer.)
The Mighty Mouse works fine on my G4 PowerBook, which has built-in BT.
I'm inclined to agree with one of the posts: Bluetooth, at least as an add-on to the PowerMac G5, is not ready for prime time.
