26 May 2006 | Schlex Said:
I found a nice bug:
MacSaber only works after a reboot of my Powerbook, not after a cold start.
I have tested it 3 times.
I hope this helps.

Schlex,
This is a problem with your PowerBook’s firmware. Unfortunately, a reboot is your only remedy at this time. With the release of the MacBook lines, I doubt they’ll revisit this further. However, there is an in-depth discussion about this issue here.

27 May 2006 | Jake Said:
I dunno…swinging my brand new $1,100 MacBook around definitely seems like a bad idea to me :-)
27 May 2006 | Brandon Said:
I just downloaded v 1.0, and nothing happened when i lifted/lowered my PB (12″, 1.5 GHZ), only side-to-side motion worked.
Great app though!
27 May 2006 | Chris Said:
igot an SMS -2 error with the debugger… i use a 17″ PB 1,67 Ghz
27 May 2006 | Ian Said:
Brandon,
That is by design. The Apple motion sensors only detect side to side and front to back motion. It can’t directly detect straight vertical drops.
To others,
I can’t really help you unless you provide all of the information in the debug screen.
If you have an iBook and it doesn’t work, your machine simply isn’t compatible. I may be able to do something with the PowerBooks with the debug info.

Hi there…I thought my husband would love this but it doesn’t seem to be working. I thought we had the 1.5 GHz powerbook with backlit keyboard and 8X superdrive but the lightsaber doesn’t seem to be doing anything. You wrote above that including the debug info might allow you to help get it working. The debug output is:

Does that mean anything to anyone? Can anyone help me to get this to work?

02 June 2006 | Elzeviro » Life with a MacBook Pro Said:
[...] Another detail I don’t happen to like (and yeah, I know I’m nitpicking) is the plastic frame around the DVD slot. Looks like El Cheapo stuff, and it’s definitely far from being pleasant to the eye. The same goes for the rubber band on the screen hinge. Now that I mention the hinge, then, I have to say I found it quite bit weak: there is basically no way to carry the Macbook with the screen halfway closed, something I used to do a lot with the Powerbook when moving between meeting/conference rooms. Probably the display is just too heavy, but the final result is a swinging screen that tends to either snap your fingers or slam itself wide open, pulling the laptop from your hands. Given how this makes MacSaber nearly unusable, you can clearly see why I just don’t like that: getting my ass kicked on a Jedi battle by 15-inchers is just a shame. [...]
02 June 2006 | Matt Schriock’s Blog » Smackbook Said:
[...] I found this neet little gimmick on the net. I sort of managed to get it to work on my powerbook, but it is a little too sensitive. It works because the last few generations of mac laptops have built in motion sensors designed to protect the hard disk incase of a drop or sudden impact of a lacrosse ball. Well, some apple geeks tapped into this motion sensor and decided to use it for a slightly more entertaining means. Someone else decided to use the same technology to make a macsaber. [...]

[...] La valeur des capteurs SMS peut être récupérée, laissant la place à des applications plus amusantes. Par exemple, le logiciel MacSaber émet des sons de sabre laser StarWars lorsque le Mac est manipulé. Plus bluffant: il est possible de gérer plusieurs bureaux virtuels et de passer de l’un à l’autre en tapant sur le bord de l’écran comme le montre la vidéo ci-dessous. [...]

[...] A chi non è mai capitato? La vostra spada laser preferita vi si spezza nel bel mezzo della battaglia interstellare per il dominio dell’universo? (non sto pensando a doppi sensi.. eh!?) Non c’è problema! La soluzione ve la da il Guglie! Ho trovato un programmino eccezionale che vi salverà da questo grave pericolo. Dunque per prima cosa dovete possedere un portatile Apple… non ce l’avete? Allora siete finiti! …per tutti gli altri, il programma si trova qui. I portatili Apple possiedono delle funzionalità hardware per la salvaguardia delle testine dell’hard disk… per dirla in parole povere, ogni qualvolta il portatile si trova in una posizione critica o sta per cadere… un sensore di movimento si accorge del imminente impatto e mette al sicuro le delicate testine del disco fisso al fine di evitare danni ancora maggiori. I valori rilevati da questo sensore possono essere letti tramite dei registri ed utilizzati per le proprie applicazioni… che Nerd che sono! Comunque, in giro si trovano diversi software del genere… ho recuperato una bolla da carpentiere per rassicurarmi che la mia scrivania sia proprio in regola (e ora mi sento meglio), un giochino con delle biglie, SmacBook, un switch screen… dai una pacchetta a destra per switchare a destra e viceversa. Infine quest’ ultimo MacSaber sfrutta il sensore per simulare una spada laser… e a quello che no potuto vedere, alcuni entrano proprio nella parte… in modo inquietante… Non vi consiglio di installare questi software, in quanto io non gli ho ancora provati e non so come vanno, ma se avete un po’ di tempo guardatevi questi video… da non credere!

Needs 1 more feature – for when you quit, retract blade sound.
Also, I wonder if it’s possible to have MacSaber force the HD to sleep (and a note to quit other apps that might be using the HD), to save abnormal, and probably damaging, wear on the HD. I had an old PB I moved around a lot, and carefully, while running, and eventually the HD made nasty noises whenever I moved it.

I have a 15″ 2GHz Macbook Pro. Got MacSaber 1.0 a few weeks ago, and left it in my system. It worked fine. Anyway, I had nothing to do yesterday, so I opened it up– it didn’t work. No matter how much I swung my Macbook Pro around, the roll stayed at 153 and tilt at 64. Force is stuck at 0 0. :( Upgraded to 1.1, but it still doesn’t work. (It does make the standby lightsaber sound, though.)
I recently upgraded a bunch of stuff– iTunes, Quicktime, FrontRow, and IMovie. Could it be the upgrades? Downloaded an SMS widget, Level Widget, and that doesn’t work either. So, is the problem with my sudden motion sensor?
