I can run it dual-head 1280x854 + 1920x1080, or mirrored 1280x854 + 1600x1900 (upscaled and blurry, yuck). It won't let me turn off the internal LCD at all, unfortunately. In dual-head the GUI is indeed less responsive, but I find that overall the system is 10x more swap-bound, especially with just a couple tabs open. I'm contemplating going the IDE->CF route for faster swap, and/or maxing the RAM at 1GB, but I feel that this would just defeat the spirit of the challenge. Perhaps the ultimate solution is to finally spend less time browsing the Internet xDheadcrash wrote: ↑Sat Jul 13, 2024 11:27 am I had a peek at your G4 shenanigans, and it sounds like a pretty nice setup, for sure! How well does it drive that monitor? I've found the OS getting sort of micro-stuttery and not very responsive if you drive really high resolutions. At least when I ran dual 1080p monitors on my G5 Powermac I had that issue. Could be GPU-specific though I suppose.
Also, no matter how much it swaps/stutters, iTunes keeps playing smoothly. The same can't be said of Music.app on M1... ;<
Nice, I'll give both a try!
