    modifying Application/FileType mapping

    Hi. I would like all my PDF to be opened by default with Preview. Of course we can force Preview for one file (Open With -> Others -> "Force"). But what about changing definitely this file type - application mapping ? thank you, Pierre (for JMG)

    yaboot configuration

    Hello. This is not exactly OS X related but mostly linux AND mac os x. Indeed I need an example of YellowDogLinux 3 yaboot.conf file with both mac os x and linux boots. I have added a disk with Mac OS X installed on it and I don't know how to modify the yaboot.conf (and how to actually...

    OS programming ... boot

    I know that. And what you're saying is what I mean when writting : Of course that idea of VRAM is stupid (it comes from something I saw in a PC tutorial to do exactly what I am trying to do) but the idea is the one of the display driver with horrors like hexadecimal code or assembly code...

    OS programming ... boot

    he he :) I know. But I am really curious to get something booting. Having just text display and keyboard interaction would be enought and far much than what I expect to do (for the while just writting a sentence ... a black screen with maybe something like ... hmmm ... let's say 'Hello World'...

    OS programming ... boot

    I already saw the first two links (and the linked pages) but not the third. It is interesting ... but it does not tells me how and what to compile in order to get it work. Your first link is about the boot sequence, but the boot sequence of Mac OS X. Of course, to display a message this is...

    OS programming ... boot

    Hi. I found a lot of things talking about the OpenFirmware (Apple TechnicalNotes, OpenFirware Working Group web site, articles ...) but nothing concrete. By "nothing concrete" I mean I found nothing telling me what to compile and how (and also how to configure) in order to be able to...

    Network Cables ... going mad!

    Thank you for the time you shared with us, but if I post here is because I did not find answers via google (too much things ... maybe I am not as a good google-user as I though). Have fun, Pierre.

    Network Cables ... going mad!

    Thank you RHG for the answer. It seems you know exactly what you are talking about ... but ... what does CAT5 and CAT3 mean (technically) ? what's the difference ? and why have we this very amazing color order solving problem (read the first post of the topic to understand what I am talking...

    Network Cables ... going mad!

    There should be no difference. However when we do test it, we find one. Whenever you don't respect the 100M color sequence then your cable will only work in 10. It has been tested. (I do work in a computer firm and we are used to those problems even if we don't - in this case - understand the...

    Network Cables ... going mad!

    Hi. I noticed that we have two kinds of ethernet (RJ45) network cables : one for the 10 Mbs and one for the 10/100 Mbs I don't understand the differences between both of them since in spite a same color sequence the little cable are always straight. For example : let suppose the...

    MORE 3 on X ?

    Well, look at what you wrote, you will find no 'end-line' character. You cannot with OmniOutline go to the begining of the next line whenever you want. For exemple: First is an exemple. After 'is' there's 'end-line'. In your example you did : a very long sentence that cannot fit into the...

    MORE 3 on X ?

    Thank you Durbrow for NoteTaker, I tried this software and ... well ... this is not exactly what I mean ;) There are too much limitations in the hierarchical organisation (we cannot go as deep as we want) and the interface is too much complex. However, to answer you carneyweb, what is missing...

    MORE 3 on X ?

    thank you but well ... that's not exactly what MORE is ;) First of all congratulations for being 18 ;) After that if I just wanted a word processing program, TextEdit is a good way to do it. A better layout and text editor would have been Ragtime (now on OS X!!) but I don't care ... (I don't...

    MORE 3 on X ?

    Hi. Some of you maybe remember MORE (and especially MORE 3). http://www.faughnan.com/more/Enhancements.pdf It's a very good outlining program. It is so useful and I would like to know if some equivalent exists under Mac OS X. thank you to help me in finding a cocoa/carbon equivalent. ;) Pierre.

    Darwin 6 & French Azerty Keymapping

    ravi de te l'apprendre, mais c pas tellement une question de préférences, c'est surtout que mon clavier est en Azerty ... du coup les touches (en particulier les . " : ; / < & # @ ...) ne correspondent pas et c assez destabilisant ;)
