    SIIG ATA PCi Controller

    I've been running one of these in a Beige G4 450 for almost a year now with no problems at all. I remember when I first put it in I was AMAZED at the speed increase it gave me running a 30GB IBM ATA 100 drive. The chips is an acard chip, so you can use all of their firmware updates, which...

    Start a GUI app as a daemon?

    Anarchie, I think you are getting a little confused with the & notation. What you have said is correct, it just makes the OS spawn another thread so the current terminal is free to continue. This doesn't mean the program is running as a daemon and it won't live after you log-out. (if...

    OpenGL acceleration

    I can't say for certain, but as far us I understand OpenGL, its code that is designed to run on a GFX card - and there is no software mode. The whole point is that it runs on the GFX card, if you wanted software rendering, you would have to re-write with no OpenGL -Dan

    Getting K-Develop Binaries

    Hi, I'm trying to install K-Develop, but I'm having little luck so far. From what I can tell, the only way to get/install the program is to use Fink. The problem with this is that the machine I want to install it on is not connected to the net. What I need is a web url with the...

    Deleting Resolution Settings - ?

    I've got a Beige G3 with a Radeon that runs 10.1.1 with no problems at all. I was just using TV-OUT, and went to switch back resolution to my usual 1024X768 but I'm half asleep and I dragged all the way down to something like 1900X1600 at some high refresh rate. My AppleVision 750 didn't like...

    Here's a real stumper

    Zapski, I remember reading some time back there were issues with iBooks and the antennea in the monitor. On some 'books when the monitor was 'opend' or 'closed' this would pinch the cable, and kill any airport... Try playing with the angle you have the monitor on ( relative to the keboard)...

    VERY simple C question

    The problem is definately the buffering of the keyboard input. I don't do much C (more C++) so I use cin for all input.. anyway, as a general rule, whenever you get input from the keyboard you should ALWAYS put "cin.ignore();" on the next line, to clear the \n from the buffer. (I...

    What is this XP crap?

    I read a quote out of the New York Times a few weeks ago, it went almost exactly like: "XP could not look more like a copy of OS X if it had been run through a copy machine" I liked it. (the quote, that is) I've seen a few of the beta's of XP ('doze friends have it) and I think its a...

    Web Hosting

    Make 100% sure that you are putting the trailing "/" on the url. I spent ages trying to get it working using 127.0.0.1/~username and it doesn't work. (it needs 127.0.0.1/~username/ ) -Dan
