alright you guys, ive looked all over and cannot find anything in the prefrences of OSX. I have 10.4.6.

My problem is the fact the PMG5 turns on with the mouse being clicked when its been put to sleep. Normally, this hasent been a problem for the last 3 years but I just got two new kittens and they like to go everywhere. At nights, I usually let my G5 sleep and they jump on the desk and walk over the mouse or so and in middle of my sleep, i hear it Rev Up and brightness comes from there. 1st time I thought maybe it was a portal or something but it was just 4:30 in the morning, pitch black except my LCD screen being bright as all hell. :D

So anyways to just have it turn on from touching the screen or the power button on the PMG5, instead of the mouse too?
 
Just be glad you don't have a trackball mouse. The slightest movement will cause them to turn my G4 on. I resorted to runing the mouse upside down before going to bed.
 
1. Get rid of your cats ;)


2. Get a wireless mouse, and when you're done for the day, put it in a drawer or on a high shelf.
 
:p bah! I was hoping I was just missing some kind of feature. Well thats kinda odd, seemed like such a simple idea in a prefrence to be able to to choose how to wake up your unit. I mean hell, you can tell it to wake up when you plug stuff via Ethernet Cord and such but cant controlt he mouse :confused:


hahah yea, about the cats, last thing they do is listen to me :eek: 2 Kittens @ 12 weeks just like to run wild :D
