Hello Nicholas,

I also have had to give up my trusty old G4 dual with 10.4, but only
because of hardware problems with
the Mac, but before then, I had to 'shelve' the Powerlinc USB because
it just totally broke.

So I've not had a chance to run the Plink on the iMac (have two of the
24" models).

But the kind of problem you're having smells much of a USB type of
problem that I THINK
has been resolved in later versions of XTension.

What version are you running now ??
