Wow! Thanks guys! I needed a boost in confidence. I haden't even considered looking for local papers, thats a rather obvious thing to check, now that I think about it. acidtuch10: Quite a change in climate, from az to ny, eh?

Actually, looks like I'm headed for Kingston, NY (woodstock area, more or less though).

As the topic says, I'll be moving to the area of Woodstock, NY in a few weeks. What a change from Arizona, eh? Anyway, I'm having a little trouble finding housing in the area. Looks like the nearest apartments are a good half hour out of the way. And in the winter, I'm sure that time will be...

ooh, and look at this: http://www.ati.com/support/connectors/pinouts/pinoutsforadc.html My adaptor is certainly just passing the analog pins only, so no wonder its just a mirror image. (still have to try my room mate's panel to know for sure)

I was afraid of that. What, then, do you think they are saying about it in this pdf? http://www.nvidia.com/object/LO_20010718_4432.html Here is a choice quote: My guess is there is only one VGA output, and I've essentially split it. Looks like I have to have a true digital display to...

I have a quicksilver G4 (not mirror'd drives) with an Nvidia GeForce 2 mx. Believing that this card supports TwinView (perhaps it does not, I may be mistaken), I purchased an ADC to VGA adaptor in order to connect two VGA monitors to the card, and support "Desktop spanning", or "dual head"...

Just tried the URL, and it loaded way slow in Safari "1.3 Developer Beta (v146)". Tried several pages on the domain too, they were all very very slow. There must be some buggy stuff on the site, or something. Tried it in Mozilla Firebird (old-ish version), and wow, what a difference, it...

I totally agree. I have purchased music from it - it is convenient. But for serious listening, I go and buy the CD. Consider though, there is now a lossless codec built in to iTunes. I'm guessing Apple must have some plans for it. And I agree, its likely they would have to completely re-rip...

thanks dude, I was missing watching it live, but this is almost as good! And yes, its too bad about Konf. Hopefully the SDK will be similar enough...

I'm thinking that it is likely possible - I don't recall the capslock light coming on while I'm playing Quake 3 Arena on my mac. On the x86 side of things, its very easy to do in linux. I suspect, however, that we'll never figure it out :p

Well, I gotta list here, this is just too fun: Always open: Terminal (and its associated programs, I'm always using them for medial tasks most people would use the dock or finder for) Safari Logic Platinum Mail iChat a/v iTunes (and MenuTunes, of course) XChat Frequent: Audio...

do some googleing for open firmware commands, and try and view your scsi buss from the firmware. This will definitively tell you if the drive is connected properly. If I recall correctly, on my beige g3, when I had 10.1 on it the scsi zip worked just fine (internal OEM scsi). I never could...

Thanks for the suggestions. I think I'm gona buy a tape eraser (basically a coil of wire similar to a degaussing coil) and try that. I actually checked, and I think this is covered under warrenty. But, I also found out its a three year warranty. I remember buying Mac OS X for this computer...

I left the screen at my mom's house for a month or so, and then it happened. Sounds like it needs to be degaussed, right? Well, the monitor (an Mitsubishi 920, by NEC) has a degauss function built right in to the on screen controls. When I press it, the screen does the usual psychedelic...

I had this happen to my Quicksilver. I've also seen it happen to my dad's Quicksilver. It always happens after the computer has been powered off, after several weeks of uptime. When it happened to mine, I nearly cried. I called work, said I'd be late, and busted it over to the apple store...

LMAO!!!!! Thats great! On a lighter note, I just configured a Dell Workstation (different than their desktop class) for my dad's secretary. It was the most painless PC install I've ever contributed to. I couldn't believe how well it went. It was a dual-processor 2.6ghz Intel Xeon...

Darwin is stupid, these "Bus errors" aren't even related to the system bus. Bus errors often happen because the $TERM variable isn't defined properly. Here is what I would do: 1) type printenv into a terminal that gives you errors. Then into a terminal under another user. Post them here...

Well, RedHat 9 has a lot of components that will slow it down, but an experienced user can take care of that. When I had RedHat 6.1, it was decent on my 486/66, and it was fine on a Pentium 1/90. The reason for this? This is before RH sold out and got bloated :p. But, because it is linux, you...

If I understand it correctly, owaters, its the software running the dvd drive that has to be region-free. My guess would be something like http://www.videolan.org/ might remove such restrictions. I know in order for most dvd rippers to work, Apple's dvd player must be opened first to decrypt the...

Just a few notes about the connections here... Phonograph output is NOT in any way compatible to a standard consumer Line-level AUX input, such as the ones Apple Macintosh computers typically come with. Phono output is typically extremely low level (~50mircovolts - just above a mic...
