Re: max_charge and pmu reset on Pismo
You might want to reset all your hardware through Open Firmware. To do
this, when your PB boots, hold down the Apple-Option-o-f key combination
and at the prompts, type:
reset-nvram
reset-all
I remember some folks reported having success with this for new batteries
in an iBook at www.macintouch.com
