    Jaguar made me deaf

    I had (sort of) the opposite problem. After installling Jag, my startup chime got deafeningly LOUD. Zapping the PRAM cured it. Maybe that would help with your loss of volume, too?

    DRM evil comes home

    I stuffed mine, just in case some future update fusses when it can't find the bundle. I will, however, only unstuff it if I have my Ethernet cable unconnected. :p

    10.2 update, can't get past login window!

    There are a couple of things you can try. If you have OS 9 on your system, boot up in it and disable/delete QuickKeys or any other startup items from there. Or, booting up while holding down the shift key will disable startup items and nonessential kernel extensions. If these don't work for...

    Wow! Internet Explorer 5.2.2

    LOL! So you prefer a browser that doesn't render all the text on a webpage? I guess it's a matter of taste... :p

    Entourage ... Hotmail ...WHY!!

    I'm not clear on exactly what you're doing. Are you trying to get your hotmail delivered to your Entourage? I think you now have to pay to get that. If you're trying to get hotmail on a non-Micro$oft email client, it'll never work. Bill Gates made sure of that! :mad:

    unable to delete file on desktop - help

    Try this: In the Terminal, type "sudo rm" and then put a space. From the Finder drag the file and drop it on your Terminal window. It's "correct" name will show up, and hitting Enter should delete it (once you put in your password).

    Jaguar and Broadband Connection

    I have a cable modem connection, love it, and couldn't live without it! Okay, that's a bit of an exaggeration, but it really is marvelous. :D Had cable TV service before I got the internet hookup, so it costs "only" $40 a month. If I had the cable modem without the cable TV service, they...

    Wow! Internet Explorer 5.2.2

    I gave the new IE version a trial run. Still allows popups. Still often fails to render page text. Shows the b&w spinner way too often. Overwrote my modified DefaultHelperApps.plist file to reinstate itself as default browser. Left its installation log at the root level of my boot drive...

    Competition to Chimera out on Windows / Linux

    I wouldn't exactly call it "competiton" for Chimera. They are both projects of the mozdev folks, after all. Mozilla has the close-box for tabs, and I expect to see it implemented in Chimera before too long. Probably the other features will make it into Chim, too.

    osX on 333mhz imac. CDr's wont mount!

    Using my Iomega CDRW, I have burned data CDs with Disk Copy, and music and data CDs with Toast. So far they have all turned out fine. I have heard of people having a lot of trouble with other brands of burners, though. :(

    Opera 6 Has Slowed Down Scrolling!

    The ReadMe said something to the effect that they were so busy with a gazillion other bugs that they left speed for their next release. :rolleyes:

    osX on 333mhz imac. CDr's wont mount!

    Another thing to try is using different brands of CD. Maybe your iMac can't deal with Memorex disks but likes Imations, or vice versa.

    Weird problems with osx .1 and jaguar...

    I think you should erase the partition and do a fresh installation of Jaguar, then. :(

    Ie 6 - Wtf?!

    Tonight I was slumming - taking a spin in Virtual PC. I came across one of those M$ ads telling me that my life was not complete until I installed Internet Explorer 6. I was bored, so I thought "Why not?" Okay, the installation took longer than any browser installation in OS X ever did, but...

    Whats Ya Style?! ...Fashion Wise?!

    Jeans or Dickies slacks, tees (usually dark blues or greens), plaid wool shirts, leather work boots. In summer, cut-off jeans and flip-flops. In winter, a down jacket and a wool toque. But to really get a sense of my style, you gotta see me naked. :p

    Weird problems with osx .1 and jaguar...

    It sounds like the installation did not get completed properly. First try running the "fsck -y" repair. If that doesn't help, you should probably reinstall Jaguar.

    osX on 333mhz imac. CDr's wont mount!

    Are these blank disks? If they are, check your CDs & DVDs pref pane in System Preferences, and make sure Open FInder is selected for blank CDs. If they aren't blank, then it's a problem with the system reading them, not a driver issue.

    Mozilla Question?

    You're talking about a single click, right? You can already select control-click to do this in Mozilla's prefs. I have that setting selected. There's a line in my prefs.js file that reads: user_pref("browser.tabs.opentabfor.middleclick", true); Try backing the file up and editing that line...

    Chimera and VersionTracker

    Yes, I'm seeing that, too. Going to View > Text Zoom makes it look normal again, but it's a real PITA.
