I've just noticed that the energy saving features don't seem to work on my iMac G3 DV 400MHz.
I was planning on leaving it on overnight to re-sync my 3G iPod (which does not seem to work via firewire, only USB1 and I have created a thread about it with no suggestions so far). I find the screen glow annoying because my desk is next to my bed, so I wanted the monitor to automatically switch off. But, even after setting it to 1 min of inactivity, it did not work.
I have also tried scheduling startup and shutdown, and sleeping after so many minutes of inactivity, but these do not work either.
Do I need some kind of driver for this? I am running 10.3.9.
Looks like I'll have to put a piece of cardboard in front of the screen temorarily. 18GB over USB1 is gonna take all night
Any help appreciated. Thanks.
