    Missing sound, missing volume control in quicktime browser plugin

    Also, logging in as a different user does not fix the problem.

    Missing sound, missing volume control in quicktime browser plugin

    I trashed the preferences to both the plugin and quicktime player, but that made no difference.

    Missing sound, missing volume control in quicktime browser plugin

    The following strange problem started recently for me: On some (but not all) of the new trailers at http://www.apple.com/trailers/ , the sound is missing and so is the volume control that's usually at the lower left corner of the quicktime plugin rectangle. I've already tried: *...

    ssh stalls?

    Short answer: Your connections are timing out. You can probably fix this this by editing the ssh/sshd config files. There's no need to kill the stalled ssh process -- evententually it will get tired of waiting and come back to life. Have a look at the ssh/sshd man pages, and then make sure...

    Looking for a good Graphic Library App.

    > Graphic Converter is for converting graphic formats, not keeping a library. Graphic Converter has decent folder browsing and slideshow features -- adequate for many people (including me and my library of ~6000 photos). But I agree it's not super-fancy.

    10.2.2 decreases CPU usage when idle?

    Prior to installing 10.2.2, Mozilla 1.2b would typically consume about 9% of CPU when in the background and doing nothing. (Other apps were running at the same time, but they were also idle and in the background.) Most other apps consumed less that 2% while idle/backgrounded. After...

    OS X 10.2.2 causes black cursor in X11

    You need to upgrade to Xfree86 4.2.1.1. I think this URL will take you there: https://sourceforge.net/project/shownotes.php?release_id=118483

    Darwin and ports and stuff

    I've been using fink + osx 10.2 + perl 5.8 successfully. The only complication I remember is that the Storable.pm module that fink installs in /sw/...... is not binary compatible with perl 5.8. Deleting or renaming the fink version of Storable fixed the problem (assuming you have Storable.pm...

    GNOME on OSX?

    Try contacting the maintainer of the fink gnome package, or asking your question on the fink-devel mailing list.

    man not working since I installed Jaguar ??

    I had a similar (maybe identical) problem. I fixed it my removing the fink version of man (/sw/bin/man, I think). If you use fink, this is probably the cause. type 'which man' to see which version of man is being run.

    Strange collection of jag bugs

    When my ibook wakes from sleep, the clock doesn't update until the next minute (i.e. not until the next scheduled update). But it sounds like you problems go well beyond this.

    Perl question - need LWP.pm

    It's probably easiest to use the CPAN module to install LWP and other modules. Start by typing 'sudo perl -MCPAN -eshell' in the terminal. Then 'install LWP' at the CPAN prompt. You might want to read the CPAN section of http://developer.apple.com/internet/macosx/perl.html first.
