Yeeahhhh Baybbbeeeeee!

And here is mine!

You know what I did? I got Apple's X11 and Fink Commander and downloaded KDE and it works fine! Total cost? Nish. But you really need a fast internet connection for this.

Hi all, I successfully moved my swapfile to it's own partition and it worked... until I upgraded to 10.2.4! Now I've got two - one in /private/var/vm and one in /Volumes/swp 1/vm. My rc file tells the file to be in /Volumes/swap/vm but there's nothing there! What's up? Could it be that...

Thanks randomdude!

Oh, er... following on from my "Deleting extra swapfiles" post, what about those 'unixy' volumes (i.e. I can only see them from the terminal and now that I have KDE I can see them in it's file manager) that were created when I made multiple swapfiles? Is it okay to delete those and how do I do...

I edited my .cshrc as suggested and everything is working. Thanks again Darkshadow & randomdude. One other thing: what does .cshrc and .xinitrc stand for (if anything).

Thanks edX. I'll just wait for any other replies before I go deleting!

Hi all, a while ago I was messing about trying to move my swapfile to it's own partition. I've done it now but now I also have two other swapfiles on volumes called "swap" and "swp1". I've even found a file called "swap0" and that's not even in the right place! Is it okay to delete these files...

Thanks Darkshadow & randomdude. I'll try it all tonight and let you know how I get on (because I bet there'll be more questions after I get that working!) - Paul

Hi all, I know very little about unix but want to learn stuff. So I have Apple’s X11 Public Beta v0.2.1 on Jaguar 10.2.4 and it works fine. I’ve now installed Fink Commander and that seems to be working okay except when I download programs with Fink and try and run them from the X11 terminal...

Thanks for your replies. My reason for wanting to grab DVD stills is from my companies own DVD and not to violate any copyright. - Paul

Hi all, how do you grab a screen from a DVD film? Ta.

Hi all, Just updated to 10.2.4 and now Apple DVD player works but when I play a DVD it's all blank. In order to see anything I have to "draw" a window in front of the DVD movie window in order to "clear a space" to see the movie! Then, if I move the DVD movie window it goes blank again. I have...

Thanks. I'll try your suggestions. - Paul

I've logged out, restarted, tried it as root (!) and the icon's still won't change! - Paul

Hi all! Before I upgraded to Mac OS X 10.2.3 I could put custom icons on my files and change them whenever I liked. Now I can only change the icon once! What's going on? Thanks. - Paul

Ta gigi!

Thanks chemistry_geek!

Eddie / Vard, where can I download this BTV Pro? Thanks. - Paul
