I have had trouble in the past getting shm compiled into X. At least I think I have given that when I run enlightenment it complains about a lack of SHM support. Is there a way to check for SHM support via the command line or some such tool? Thanks, Harrison

Yup, Did the reinstall and the problem reoccured about 3 days later. Despite having done a cursory hardware test, a trip to the apple store confirmed that the problem was a faulty hard drive. Harrison

Man is this little ibook hosed! The first sign of a problem was the lack of airport and battery icons in the menu bar. Then I noticed that any changes that I make in SystemPreferences / Network fail to be updated. I think I have tracked it down to the fact that configd is not being started /...

Hey folks, Mail.app has the nifty ability to add and select from multiple outgoing mail servers from within Mail preferences. The question is how to remove a server from the list of outgoing SMTP servers once it has been added. Does anyone know how to do this? Harrison

Hey folks, Any body know if it is possible to use a tiBook as a telephone? Anybody all ready done this? I don't want voice over ip or mass dial capabilities. I just want to be able plug a line into my modem and place normal voice telephone calls. Thanks for the info :-)

I have a powerbook G4 running a clean install of 10.2.1 without classic installed. If possible I would like to install classic onto this computer without having to reinstall jaguar. I have tried copying the System Folder from the os 9.2 install disk to my harddrive. Once this was done I was...

Unless you must use sftp you might want to give scp a try. Assumeing that you have your ssh-keys set up so that logging on to your remote box doesn't require a password the following command should work as a cron entry. "scp remoteUserName@remoteHostName:/path/to/file /path/to/local/file"...

Hello, Anybody know how to add airport functionality to a powermac g4 400 (yikes)? As it stands I have the yikes wired to the base station which leaves me about 5ft short on the range needed to connect to the computer furthest from the base station. I can't move the computers, and I can't...

I think I might be about to give in :-( 5th compile in 3 days and still no SHM in enlightenment. Couldn't get "fink apropos xfree" to give me the wanted output, so after cleaning out all references to anything other than xfree86-4..2.0-12 I tried to reinstall X with fink. First tried "fink...

Ok so fink apropos xfree gives the following: system-xfee86 4.2-1 xfree86-base 4.2.0.1-1 xfree86-base-threaded 4.2.0.1-1 xfree86-rootless 4.2.0.1-1 xfree86-rootless-threaded (I think, can't see ??) I then removed all references to anything other than 4.2.0-12 in...

Everything is working well, but I can't get Named to start at boot. Once I start I can launch a terminal and run /Library/StartupItems/Named/Named and it is fine. Added some debug stuff into Named/Named and it seems as though the script never gets executed. Any thoughts on why this might be...

Yeah compile takes a while. About 6hrs on my PowerBook 550. Thanks for starting a compile, I look forward to hearing about your mileage.

OK, 4.2.99.1 didn't do it so I decided to try it with fink. Changed fink.conf to point at unstable/main and unstable/crypto, got rid of all the old X packages and rebuilt the whole thing. I obviously did something wrong cause now I am back to 4.2.0.1 and no SHM in sight. I would greatly...

Hmmn... I checked out from cvs and 6 hours later my build is finished. Looks like I am now running Xfree86_4.2.99.1. Sadly I still have no SHM under enlightenment. Any ideas how I can check to see if SHM is otherwise enabled, or what I missed during my build? I followed the cvs checkout...
