    you didn't install Apple's java 1.4.1 preview did you? I think there is a way of reverting back to 1.3.1 that is described in the doc.

    Is Your Firmware Up to Date? And Other 10.2 Tips

    After upgrading to 10.2 I was having the most terrible problems with my computer. The UI would crash several times a day for no apparent reason. Crashes seemed to occur a lot when dragging windows so I suspected the graphics card. But I checked the RAM and the graphics card and both were...

    OSX System Freeze

    Hi, As far as I know, system freezes in 10.1 almost always have to do with faulty hardware. My friend's PBG4 400 kept crashing (without kernal panic) and it turned out to be the motherboard, which apple replaced. Now my G4 450MHz 450 is freezing in 10.2 but rumor has it that it is an...

    10.2 and System Freezing

    Hi, I recently installed 10.2 (yes, from retail CDs) on my G4 450 MHz AGP. Ever since I have had regular system freezes where the mouse stops moving and the system becomes completely unresponsive. It happens pretty randomly -- moving a window, unhiding an application, printing, etc. At...

    10.2 For First Generation PowerBook G4

    I've been having the darker-than-expected system highlight color as well. In addition, I've had this happen a few times where my battery reading says 100..90..80..70..60..50..45% and then suddenly drops to zero and the machine goes to sleep. This is a new 10.2 issue. Has anyone else had...

    The Jaguar Bugs Thread

    Hi, After I installed 10.2 on my G4 450 AGP, it was freezing up a lot (mouse would be unresponsive). This was even after I did a clean install. I noticed that the clean install hadn't changed my login items. In there was the Microsoft Mouse startup as well as a few other things. Once I...

    That happened all the time for me with an earlier build of 10.1 (5G24 I think). Are you sure you have 5G64?

    Embedded Perl (Embperl)

    I finally figured out a way to compile the source. I'll be posting a package soon for people who don't want to mess with the headers.

    Embedded Perl (Embperl)

    Has anyone been able to successfully compile and install Embedded Perl (Embperl) on MacOS X (10.1). Compilation gives me a 'symbol defined multiple times' error. I tried modifying the make file to ignore multiply-defined symbols but still couldn't get it to work. Any ideas?

    Dumb Classic question

    I have read that there is a way to get the classic app Finder to launch as any other application under OSX. This would give you access to the OS9 finder. I think the hack involved opening Finder in a resource editor and changing a flag (making it look like a normal application that can be...

    OS X: One White Pixel on TiBook

    Hi, I've noticed that often one bright white pixel appears on my screen in MacOS X. This is not a problem with the display as when I move the mouse over it, it turns black. The pixel, when it appears, is always in the top left-hand corner of the screen just under the menu bar. It's...

    convert .cdr

    Why don't you download the preview version of Toast (5P2), mount the image and save it in .dmg format? Though I'm not sure Toast recognizes .cdr format.
