Hey all - Just went into my preferences and noticed a new pane called "CPU". No idea how long it's been there, but being a speed freak, I decided to check it out. I opened it up, and noticed that level3 cache was set to none. I check my profiler, which states that I have 1mb of level3 cache, so...

Hey all - I've decided to start work on an alternative backup app, to compete with Apple's latest .mac offerings. To avoid duplication - here's the link to my other thread: http://www.macosx.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=22079 The app will be open-source and free. I just need a...

Hey all - got an email last night promoting the new backup feature of .mac. I have no interest at all in .mac, but there was something in there that really rubbed me the wrong way. Ummm... ok... wtf? So wait... is Apple going to hook up 10 million cd burners on their servers for me(us), and...

Hey all - Spent the morning installing and then hacking away at Jaguar! I got angry for a bit, cuz' I hate font smoothing, and couldn't get it to turn off. Found the culprit, or at least got it to work for now. A file called ".GlobalPreferences.plist" in my preferences folder. The first...

Hey - This just kills me. I don't get it at all... just checked the apple site... looking up some info on jagaur again. So over on the right side of the page it lists the "top downloads"... #1 being aol 10.1. People still use aol?? It should truly be illegal!! Argh.. J5

Hey all - my sister has an imac - she's a photographer, so I told her to get the epson 740 inkjet when she bought the imac. It's an older, 350mhz model. I just put 10.1.5 on it for her. She'd been having trouble with her printer lately, and is thinking about getting cable instead of dial-up...

Hey all - I recently installed X on an older powermac 7600, with a sonnet g3 upgrade card. We used the installers from sonnet's site to get it working, and it runs well. The only problem is that if you shut it down, when you start it back up, it comes up with a broken system folder icon. The...

Hey all - I just got 10.1.5 running on a powermac 8500/180 with a maxpowr g4. It rocks!!! But I just installed tinkerTool and adjusted a few things. I turned off anti-aliasing for all text. After I rebooted, it goes all the way through the startup process, up until the final step. It just...

Hey all - Just messing around with project builder and the other apps, but I don't have any idea what I'm doing. I have a basic knowledge of C/C++ but have never done any real programming. I know php and some other javascript type stuff, but wanted to get into Cocoa. Does anyone know of...

Ok - here's on for y'all - I have an 8500 w/g4 card running os9, and a powerbook g3 with X. The pb drive is only 2 gigs, so I had an idea that using file sharing I'd set up X on the pb to boot classic off of the 8500 os 9 install. I haven't even tried to do it yet but I wondered if it was even...

Just got an 8500 with a g4 card. Pretty nice machine with the video in/out, rca audio, etc. It has pci usb card in there - anyone using the usb drives? What's the general opinion on usb hard drives? good - bad?? I have an ATI rage 128 video card for a pc, but I heard somewhere that it's...

Hey all - I just installed 10.1.3 on my powerbook, first time in 10 since the public beta. I was holding out because my ethernet adapter wasn't supported in the beta. It works fine now tho! Just wondering, I remember the beta having a ton more preferences and options for tweaking the system...

Hey all - been a long long time since I've been here! Good to see the site still in action. Here's what I got: 1 powerbook g3 233 w/os x and 2 gig drive. 1 8500/180 w/g4 card and 2 gig drive - os 9.1 1 huge 21" oldie-but-goodie apple display Here's the problem: I have only about 500...

I couldn't find too much on this subject so here it is: What are the pros/cons of each format? I only have access to HFS+. I was thinking of reformatting, and installing just X on UFS, and a minimal 9, with my most used apps. My drive is only 2 gigs, and in os9 shows that i only have...

I just finished putting together a package that installs apache with the php module into your /usr/local/ directory. I made a shell script to install it, and I've tested it at work, on a virgin install. No compiler on the test machine, and it works great. here's the download apache_php...

Any word as to whether the final release will have PCMCIA Card Bus support? Xpb with soon to be Darwin Development tools ;) + 9.0.1 PowerBook g3 Wallstreet? 13.3 screen - 233 160m 2 gigger

yep, all the above, and I've found a few more things missing that would be handy-dandy - #1 - The dock - Ok, it looks cool, and is fun to play with for a few minutes, but has anyone thrown anything away yet? It's pretty hard to hit the trash. Give it a try. The animations are cool, but they...
