Will it be possible to activate nap with the so called chud tools in leopard using an mdd 867?

Hello Raeshao,

What I would do is post this problem with the L3 cache not showing up in Leopard to xlr8yourmac.com - They might have a solution to this. I bloody hope so, if I am about to get Leopard I too, need nap mode, although before I discovered nap mode on this G4 MDD DP 1.25, the temps never exceeded above 130 degrees and that was way before I put in a pci fan and another med-size fan under the front drive cage.

Since I bought this mac in prestine/brand new like condition from a local neighbor, he told me it has been running stable and never had he experienced any overheating at all with it.

I guess I was lucky.
Although, I'd like to replace the case fan in here with a better pabst fan.

I'm guessing here, but I think the problem with the cache showing as unavailable in CHUD 3.5.2 may be a reporting / display issue, rather than the caches really being turned off or disabled. I'm running Leopard on a PowerBook G4 1.5GHz and the CHUD Tools display the cache as off when the preferences panel is first clicked. But the machine still appears to be running at full speed.

Now, if I flick the CHUD option to 'on' (512KB L2 in my case) - no change. Flick it back to 'None' and things slow right down. Turn it back on, speed is restored, quit and reload system prefs, check the Hardware panel... and it's saying 'None' again.

It's definitely having problems, and I really hope someone can fix it properly, but I don't think there's a performance hit here.
