Anybody at macworld see the Will Ferril switch ad? It was hilarious! But to my dismay apple hasn't posted it on their site. Anybody have a bootleg of it or has it been leaked at all! I wish Apple would run it. But hey, I dont watch tv so maybe they do. They just dont have it on their...

Ok, so im turning an old beige G3 into a YDL box and I have hit an interesting snag. The cdrom drive will mount a cd as the boot disk (eg. prepping the hard drive for a linux partition) But when the computer actually boots in 9 the cdrom will read no disks. - Ive checked the apple...

wow, when the site said community, I didnt think it meant Christian Mac community. you would think the last spot that someone would find a way to evangelize would be a geek message forum. I guess you can never expect solace and religious respect everywhere. Does anybody else get bothered by...

Hey yall, so ive hit a snag installing the darwin binaries on an old world machine. So I go through the installation process and restart it with an os9 cd so that I can select darwin as my primary boot os but when i select it, its like the computer doesnt even recognize my hd anymore. I have...

Man I'd love to see a bundled defragmenter! -Lucian

Oh yeah, and windows? What the hell is up with that? I mean shit, people who want windows support can go to a windows specific board. You would think that macosx.com would cater specifically to macintosh users and to the technologies that best pertain to them. windows.... that's just...

As a X user who is trying to learn more and more unix every day, the unix topic area was a place where I could find all the help i ever needed. What's with the linux column? I mean, Linux is great and everything, but you would think there should a darwin specific topic area before an operating...

no one can top the dog-cow MOOF MOOF MOOF! -Lucian

Yeah, it all dealt with permissions. I logged onto my friend's mac via ftp and looked at how the permissions on his /bin/ directory were set. Aparrently no one had permission to execute anything within that directory including tsch. That explains why i could only login under root. Thanks...

Although disk utility fixed a slew of problems, Im still getting the error.... any other ideas??? -Lucian

Well i was trying to install enlightenment using fink and i logged out to use >console for straight darwin. >console didnt work so i logged back in as my user and launched the terminal. This is what i see now Welcome to Darwin! login: /bin/tcsh: Permission denied [Process exited - exit...

Has anyone had any experience in installing and configuring panFor Messege boards? There is a free lite version available from versiontracker. Gimme a yell if you know anything about this, anybody.... -Lucian

Hey Folks, been a while since my last post but its nice to be back and see the Mac community at its best. Ok now that the ass-kissing is over i'd like to express a difficulty that i've just encountered with my iPod: The problem started yesterday when i noticed that iTunes wouldnt close...

Hey Guys check out the freeware game parsec! www.parsec.org Its a cool space combat game, at least the screen shots look good. It wont run for me though, itll load up and then just quit... if anyone trys it out and gets the same problem, we can have a pow-wow to figure this out because...
