Mostly interested...but also curious ; ) I guess the real final answer depends on what it is, what is actually stuck. When I find out how to find the stuck process, then I when I do run into a problem, I can hunt down a stuck process to see if it's the culprit, and then kill it.

well that makes sense about the "zombie" processes. when I tried to kill them, I got a message that the PID did not exist. here is an excerpt from the man pages for "ps" (which is what Darkshadow said) When printing using the command keyword, a process that has exited and has a...

This is the first part of my top output Processes: 68 total, 2 running, 1 stuck, 65 sleeping... 249 threads 09: Load Avg: 0.93, 0.49, 0.34 CPU usage: 34.3% user, 14.9% sys, 50.8 SharedLibs: num = 122, resident = 31.4M code, 2.66M data, 10.0M LinkEdit MemRegions: num = 9149...

it's definitely not an obvious applications that is either not responding and red in the force-quit dialog. It's an interesting idea, but way too much work, since there are 70 processes and over half taking up 0.0%. I was hoping (figuring based on the power of UNIX), that there would be a...

In the terminal, using top, I see that there is a "stuck" process. But top does not identify the state of any process, so I can't tell which one is stuck. So I try "ps aux" and get a very long list of items, but they are just active, sleeping, or zombie. None of the zombie items can be acted...

I don't mind a little software piracy of M$ products and products that are severly flawed. Of course d/l to try out is okay too. Strange ethics, but i get by with them.

I agree, moving files is very slow, even on my G4 DP 867Mhz, 10.2.6, 768MB!!!! Try this Test...... 1. Create a text file with just "hi" inside. call it "test" 2. Create 2 folders on the desktop. "Folder 1" and "Folder 2" 3. Put test into "Folder 1" 4. Now duplicate "test" until...

I wouldn't say it's better, but it's Mac OS X native. (and I think the newest version has a server option to allow better sharing of project planning.) Product Description: FastTrack Schedule 8 makes it easy to organize, track, and manage all your project details. Project plans come...

Looks like itunes is network sharing on port 3689. check me on that if I am wrong. joe

AFP sharing is native to OS X since it is built upon TCP/IP. For AFP sharing, the computer connecting to you needs to specify AFP afp:// Additionally if you have diabled appletalk, then the default connection of computers connecting to your computer is going to be AFP. Setup file sharing in...

Good idea, thanks Cheryl

I was able to copy all three Powebook G4 restore images to the empty HD. Then I mounted the drive image and copied that system folder to the empty HD. In system prefs-> startup disk, I could see the newly copied dytem folder as a bootable drive. Wahoo. So I rebooted.....and....it hung while...

More info: I have just confirmed that the 9.2.2 Installer CD, was in fact a 9.2.1 installer CD from the Quicksilver. - grey Power Mac G4 - Mac OS 9 Install CD - labelled OS version 9.2.1 - part #691-3295A Well that explains why it won't boot. Unfortunately the only recent Power Mac G4 Software...

Maybe my 9.2.2 installer CD did NOT come with my computer. It could be from a G4/733 QuickSilver that we also have. Funny thing is that we have two G4/867 and two 9.2.2 install CDs, but only G4/733 and no other recent towers, just TiBooks.

I ran into a similar problem (no not a german OS), but the inability to install OS 9.x on my DP 867. Classic is fine, but I can't boot into 9. I have my old version of 9.2.2 from my last computer. That works fine for classic. But it won't let me boot to OS X. The OS 9.x that was installed on...

I have not seen a way to add the OS 9 drivers to a drive WITHOUT reformatting. bobw do you have any reference to followup on your beliefs?

Nope, you can't just check that box. All fingers point to reformatting in order to add the OS 9 drivers. :mad:

I am looking for the same info. Apple support seems to point to NO, but it seems like there should be some way.........

I switched to HTTP in the prefs, went back to apple, and linked back to the show. I went from .47 fps to 15fps with perfect sound!!! thanks for the tip
