Is this possible at all? It seems this is exactly what happens in the scenario of a netboot server… Basically, what i want is this: • I have: I've got a MacPro with 2 HD's, one of which (HD1) contains a partition that holds a large pool of Diskimage (.img) files, each containing a...

i'd like to extend this thread a bit by sharing my findinds in this field. i've been using screen almost permanently over the past years. it has become standard practice to log into remote machines using screen-sessions $> ssh -t hostname.tld screen -RD so most of the time i re-connect...

hi all, searching the forums didn't answer my question, so now i'd like to try your all-knowing wisdom… ever since leaving Tiger when switching to Leopard (long time ago..) i've really missed the simple Quicktime contoller you would find in the Finders' preview-column or inspector- and...

in debian i'm enjoying bash-completion, even when typing paths that are located on remote hosts (provided ssh-keys are shared). this is extremely useful, for instance when using scp.. however, this doesn't work on OSX for me, and i can't find where to configure this.. anyone an idea...

hi, i have an old pismo that still works great. it's running debian, and is used mostly as a portable a/v jukebox and tv around the house/kitchen/bath/bed... there's also a partition with tiger that i sometimes use. since recently, when i boot into OSX, there's no sound coming from the...

although i usually prefer using some fullblown editor for coding, i'm using textedit all the time for quick previewing of files, among other things. just turn off the html-parsing feature in TextEdits' prefs: (that is, turn ON the 'igonre rich text commands...' option)

ok…well, i didn't try removing the .kext anyways. in my case it's really something between the wifi-router and different connected clients. i'm not so what exactly, but i just setteled with a cat-6 cable. i'm not so fond of wifi anyways. a cable just works. as a side note, to test...

thanks for your responses, i think i tracked down the cause. it seems the mini just doesn't like it when there's a 802.11b client on the network. theoretically this would only bring down the entire network to a max of 11Mbit/s, but somehow the mini has a hard time understanding what's going...

hi i have a mac mini (intel) on which wifi-networking is really flaky when booted into osx. - it's not so much the actual transfer speed, but rather the "connection responsiveness". by this i mean that sometimes connections time-out, while a next attempt to connect succeeds in a few...

5 years and indeed no (definite) solution. as a programmer i've gained alot of knowledge on this subject, and in the mean time i've been able to fix some corrupt files. generally, IF a fix is possible, it's still alot of work to get it done. and already trying to find-out if it's worth the...

to round-up: the timeout-issue magically dissapeared before i got a chance to test with debugging/verbose flags on ssh/sshd. i like to believe my isp actually took appropriate action after they received my complaint :) (prob. not)

satcomer, i never noticed any block whatsoever, i'd actually be surprised(..) macbri, thanks for the suggestion. you're right.. i was just still denying, and blaming the isp:)

hi, i'm sorry if missed similair posts, but all i found so far were issues related to timeouts or bad routers. also, i realise it's not completely mac-related, although the clients i'm using are all macs (leopard, tiger) my problem is that although nothing changed in my network setup, i'm...

hey, that's great! and superfast.. there's many fora etc. out there, this was exactly the kind of hint i was looking for. thanks. a

Hi It's maybe a bit too much to explain exactly what i need, but in short; I'm analysing objects in a 2D space, and the resulting points i measure are a bit irregularly spread. I'm looking for a way to both in time and space smooth (average?) those points, but have a hard time figuring out...
