[G4] Follow-up: Quicksilver Won't Auto Sleep

[Mel Krewall]

Have you tried removing any USB and/or FireWire hubs or equipment? I 
know I have had problems with an external FireWire CD-RW keeping my 
computer from sleeping. Simply changing the order of the devices in the 
chain made a difference, but having them plugged in at all could be a 
problem. Likewise, third party PCI cards can create a problem with deep 
sleep. Try removing any you might have installed to see if that will 
solve your issue.
Good luck,
Mel
