Thanks for the reply. I've actually looked in this document, but it doesn't explain the process for the the G4 iBook. I have in the meantine found how to do it. Need to hold down shiftctrloption and press the power on button. The iBook shuts off quickly, then reboots with reset PRAM i.e. date and time will be reset. I had to do this because my trackpad stopped working after I clean it. For some reason resetting the PRAM made it work again. I know others have experienced the same problem. The PRAM must hold some trackpad calibration info that gets corrupted if the trackpad is cleaned. Thanks anyway...
