[iBook] ibook no video

[Howard Pettigrew]

Peter, not an expert by any means and it has been a while since I had  
anything to do with the clamshells, but as far as I am aware, the  
clamshells only had video out through a special plug and cable that  
plugged into the speaker socket. Sounds strange but if you put in a 3  
section earphone plug, you got sound and if you put in the 4 section  
video adaptor cable, you got video. The cable had three white, red,  
yellow RCA plugs on the other end and was designed to be plugged into  
a TV,etc but the resolution was pretty low (VGA) so it looked pretty  
ghastly - text on screen was a waste of time - unreadable. I don't  
know of any other way of getting video out of a clamshell. but any  
minute now, someone will pop on and tell me I'm wrong.
Hope this is of some help.
Cheers
