turning on sound in safe mode?
I'm currently running 10.4.11 on a 12" Powerbook G4. The machine is 4 and a half years old and very near the end of its life, I fear. It's currently experiencing some severe hardward issues relating to video which prevent me from being able to start up in normal mode (I get a screen of grey jaggedy lines just after the grey apple boot-up screen). I'm on the road for 4 more months with no access to my install disks, so I'm afraid I can't re-install the OS (which would probably be the best next step).
In the meantime, I've found a work around for getting wireless to work in safe mode (in terminal, enter:
sudo kextload /system/library/extensions/appleairport.kext
then,
sudo kextload /system/library/extensions/appleairport2.kext
and bingo, you can start up airport through System Prefs)
and I'm trying to see if a similar fix exists for getting the sound up and running.
Any ideas?
