Q: Can run PB G4 as server with display closed?
Hi folks
I have an OBG Powerbook G4 1.5 GHz 2G RAM running OS X 10.5.8, that I want to use as a server hub on my AirPort net for various external HD Backup drives. Is there a way to keep the laptop awake with the display closed? I have a 1TB TimeCapsule router set up and the 1 USB port is already being used to run a LaCie 3TB. I want to store large FCP and iMovie files and a large iTunes library on this drive for runtime access. Any ideas or thoughts are greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!
All the best,
David

Hi All,
Thanks, this is no longer an issue! It was dealt with in this forum:

I happen to have an old VGA adapter that I can use to null the screen.
All best,
David
