 ATIccelerator II 1.0.b6   Free Overclock ATI graphics cards.
http://thomas.perrier.name/index.html
Requirements: Mac OS X 10.3 and ATI graphics card not older than the Rage 128 
by: Thomas Perrier
Editor Notes: ATIccelerator II comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY.
Description: ATIccelerator II can change ATI graphics cards frequencies live, on-the-fly, under Mac OS X. It's much more sophisticated and convenient to use than ATIccelerator I for the following reasons: no potentially dangerous flashing required, no cumbersome three-steps process (dump, modify, then reflash ROM),  no need to reboot for every frequency change, no OS 9 required (that's right, G5s and other recent OS 9-free Macs are now supported!)
What's New: Version 1.0.5a: Bug fix - many OEM cards weren't properly identified. (No need to upgrade from 1.0.5 for users with retail cards, or correctly recognised OEM cards).

swim3-0.96 Free Floppy driver for OS X.
http://www.darwin-development.org/floppy/
Enabler for using floppies in older systems. Doesn't work very well.  It was designed for folks on Beige Macs running OSX for the internal floppies. Perhaps you can modify it. I would like to have a fixed version. This driver is for Apple-branded floppy hardware as used in the PowerBook G3 Series (Wallstreet and Mainstreet/PDQ), the Power Macintosh G3 (beige), and others. This driver is -not- for third-party floppy drives of any kind. Third party drives are either USB devices or ATA devices, while Apple floppy drives are raw Sony, Mitsubishi, or Panasonic drive mechanisms attached directly to the motherboard controller. This driver will not help you in any way with third-party devices, so don't even try.
