    Mac OS X 10.1 (5G64) GM- HOOAHHH!

    I hope you have better luck than me : I have almost downloaded 5G64 twice... only to come back in the morning and see that the servers had crashed at about 50 MB (the first time) and 20 MB (the second time) before the end. Since I could never log back on these same (understandably busy) servers...

    10.1 and energy management : is it there ?

    This picture doesn't really prove anything, unfortunately, since you don't have a portable Mac. (Historically, at least, the energy saving options available on a portable and on a desktop machine were very different...) I guess I'll have to wait and see !

    Mac OS X 10.1 (5G64) GM- HOOAHHH!

    I have read somewhere else that sometimes you need to re-install Mac OS X from scratch when this happens. Apparently, the installer sometimes gets screwed up as to what part has been updated, and what part hasn't. So one has to install Mac OS 10.1 on top of 10.0.4 to be sure everything works "as...

    10.1 and energy management : is it there ?

    À propos de la norme ENERGY STAR Les informations relatives à ENERGY STAR figurant dans le manuel de votre ordinateur s'appliquent aux configurations standard de l'ordinateur sous le système d'exploitation Mac OS 9. Rough translation : About the ENERGY STAR standard Informations...

    10.1 and energy management : is it there ?

    I'm wondering if Apple has finally brought Mac OS X 10.1's energy management abilities on par with those of Mac OS 9. (As you may know, a Mac running Mac OS X 10.0.4 is not Energy Star compliant (see the Apple documentation that came with your new Mac).) I really like Mac OS X, but I...

    FreeBSD : longest uptime on NetCraft !

    I sort of always knew that NetCraft was managed by good guys. Now I have the proof ! :D

    FreeBSD : longest uptime on NetCraft !

    Yes but... The page you refer to certainly doesn't invalidate this finding as all of the following OS could be reported... Even though most of them are not ! BSD/OS FreeBSD [but not the default configuration in versions 3 and later] HP-UX [recent versions] IRIX Linux 2.1 kernel and...

    FreeBSD : longest uptime on NetCraft !

    Look at this page : http://uptime.netcraft.com/up/today/top.avg.html. NetCraft's list of computer with the longest uptime are almost all running a variant of BSD (save for a few IRIX machines). The top ones are even running the FreeBSD operating system ! (Not a single Windows computer in...

    I lost my icons !

    My main disk is partitioned in three : [list=1]"Mac OS X" (8 GB), where Mac OS X resides (surprise !) "Mac Classique" (1 GB), where is the plain vanilla system that I use for Classic "Courvoisier" (28 GB), where are my real apps, my docs and my stand alone Mac OS 9.[/list=1]Considering...

    classic: adsl fails?

    - I read somewhere that one had to re-order the network types in the "Network" panel (in the advanced options, drag the the different network settings) so that Ethernet be the first in the list. One has to do such a thing because Classic supposedly picks the first connection type in the list...

    I lost my icons !

    Well, I hope this won't happen to me... According to TTP and DFA, it shouldn't however. Both are perfectly happy right now. (I pray)

    I lost my icons !

    I recently logged out of Mac OS X (after 10 days of continuous use without rebooting... isn't Mac OS X lovable ? ;) ), to do a backup of my Palm device. When I came back from Mac OS 9, I noticed to my surprise, that all my Classic applications' and documents' icons had disappeared, being...

    classic: adsl fails?

    I would suggest to reboot in Mac OS 9 using the System you use as Classic and try to connect to the internet, adding all the extra software needed. Next time you'll go in Mac OS X, maybe it will work. I had to do this to get my ADSL connection to work in Classic (from within Mac OS X). My...

    A sure way to crash OSX

    Let us say that I have access to my Mac from another Mac via the terminal. What should I type into the terminal to force-quit the Aqua UI ? Please be very specific and use a step by step approach... (remember you are talking to a dummy here, Unix-wise of course !)

    How to build a Java app package ?

    I forgot to give you a follow up ! I found, a few days after my post, that the problem is that either Mac OS X' JVM or LimeWire's code do not like spaces at the beginning of a folder name... And this was the case at that time. I had not been very scientific and I had changed 2 things at the...

    What do you name your macs ?

    I guess a Dalmatian iMac owner could call its Mac "Clarus". On the other hand, a Snow iMac owner could add a few black "cow spots" to the computer and call it "Moof". :D

    How to activate CGI and server includes ?

    It appears that CGI scripts and server includes are not activated in the version of Apache that Apple ships with Mac OS X. I have tried to follow the instructions given at C|net's Builder.com, but I cannot find the files they say I should edit to activate these dynamic elements. :confused...

    Is there a Macsbug equivalent in X ?

    You wrote to add the line CRASHREPORTER=-YES- to the file "/etc/hostconfig". Unfortunately, this file is owned by root. I guess I could add it from the terminal (since I don't want to create a root account), but how ?
