I removed all the collections I had and, as you mentioned, everything went back to normal... Strange bug! Thanks though... Colddiver

I just noticed the exact same problem here and haven't figure out a way to bring this back yet... If anybody has a clue, please let us know! Colddiver

I tried it on a TV (using s-video out) with my pismo 500... DVD 0player launched (providing that the resolution was brought down to 640x480 8-bit on my LCD) but all I got on the TV screen was the green screen. The DVD seemed to play (I had sound) but no image. I will have to investigate this...

I have been able to play a DVD on another screen with my Pismo 500 (didn't try the TV through s-video yet though). The trick is to lower the resolution of the other screen to 640 x 480 and to 256 colors. Colddiver

I reboted in single user and ran fsck... It found some problems and repaired them. Everything is back to normal now. Still would be interesting to know what caused this... Colddiver

I remember seeing a post about that same problem but I coudn't remember where and search didn't produce any results so here it is: For some reason, my terminal prompt is no longer displaying user name. All I have now is: localhost% What's wrong and how can I fix this? Thanks...

It happened to me a few times (before 10.1 though). I deleted (using sudo rm -r) the /Volumes/swap and /Volumes/swap1 and everything returned back to normal after a reboot. Be very careful when you use sudo rm -r... You can really mess up your system if you do not type the command correctly...

Zippygaloo: What computer do you use? It may not be your case but people with years old machine bitching about speed should learn that in computing, if you want speed with the latest software, you need recent hardware. This goes for *any* platform... As for myself, I have been using...

Solrac said: *** THE 10.1 THAT WAS DEMO'D WAS FASTER IN EVERY SINGLE WAY THAN THE 10.1 I HAVE INSTALLED HERE*** 2 words: FASTER MACHINE How can you possibly think that the release version of an OS (any OS) can make your single 400 or 500 MHz processor machine faster than a dual 800+ Mhz...

try updating fink to the latest version (fink selfupdate). If that does not work, use fink to reinstall imlib (fink reinstall imlib) and then try reinstalling enlightenment (fink reinstall enlightenment). The easiest way to install everything is through fink. If you use other installers...

I did manage to get it to work with FreeDos as well... I also had the problem with the CD-ROM but didn't try to fix it (Bochs is way too slow on my machine). It was interesting to try though... As for VIrtual PC, I really liked this sw but, for some reason, it is not very unstable on my...

I tried fink and it did not work. I then tried to install it by myself and it didn't work either. howardm4: according to fink, all the required files are installed... From your [sarcastic?] message, I gather that the problem is coming from one of these 3 requirements so I will reinstall...

I am trying to compile sawfish and I get that error: /sw/include/libgnomeui/gnome-druid-page-finish.h:22: gtk/gtk.h: No such file or directory sawmill-capplet.c:43: gdk/gdkx.h: No such file or directory make[1]: *** [sawfish-capplet] Error 1 make: *** [all] Error 1 ### make failed, exit...

Now that Bosch, a free PC emulation program (sort of a free Virtual PC) has been ported (http://macosx.forked.net/) it would be nice if we could get some info on how to make it work and how to install a viable Windows system on it... I don't know if anybody had the opportunity to try it yet...

Programs installed with fink will run either in a terminal session of with Xfree. A good example of a program that can be run in terminal.app is Links (a text-only web browser). If you did not install it yet and want to play with it, try this: 1. Open a terminal session 2. Change...

I would like to have the same TrueType fonts in OS X, Classic and Xfree. I often do some graphic stuff using Photoshop (and now GIMP) and I would like all these to have similar font config. As I understand it, classic MacOS and Xfree TrueTypes are not compatible and must thus be converted to...

I did what you suggested and added the 3 .term files to my list of things that have to be started automatically on logon and voila! I have the 3 windows in the right place and running the right processes... I decided not to type enter after the "startx -- -quartz" command since I do not want...

That's all right... I tried AppleScript but the terminal does not seem to be scriptable... Having all the windows in the right spot is good enough... Typing "top" is not that hard anyway! ;) Colddiver

Thanks... I didn't know that trick. The help files regarding the terminal are rather useless... Having the layout saved is a good start! Colddiver

I saw that the terminal.app can use startup script... I don't know if it is possible to do this but I would like to make some kind of a script that would open 3 terminal windows each time I launch terminal.app. I would like those windows to have a configuration similar to this: +---------+...
