    troubleshooting repeated hangs at login

    Hi, 10.3 worked fine about 2 weeks, however for 2 weeks I'm experiencing a pretty annoying system behaviour at login: if I log in right after the login window shows up, I can enter my session normally; but if I wait 30 secs or more, logging in turns to an endless attempt to "Connecting..."...

    XDarwin install changed GUI encoding!

    I installed XDarwin 2 days ago. Since then, the swiss french encoding doesn't work anymore for finder and dock, showing stuff like "Aper?%u“. Trying to correct that from the System prefs "International" doesn't change anything. Do I have to go through a system repair process, or is there...

    Poll: PC and/or Mac users in this forum?

    For months now, we can see threads and posts about the PC vs Mac debate. I'd be curious to know how many here use Windows only, how many use Mac OS only, and how many use both (home or work), or another OS.

    Did you notice: Adobe Illustrator 10 for OS X is out... at the same time as Windows XP. How long OS X users have been waiting before Adobe releases this product for them ? Months!

    Bad java support, sad browsers on Mac

    I've spent a long while trying most standard browsers for Mac, OS 9 (IE, Netscape, iCab) and OS X (IE, Netscape, Omniweb, Opera, iCab, Mozilla).

    PPP connection: what's wrong with it?

    Hi, I'm looking for consistent advice about PPP connection through modem (I've gone through many forums, no answer so far...). I've got an ISDN Zyxel 2864I (500$, hell). The Zyxel modem script for OSX doesn't exist, and the Zyxel Comp. say they don't plan to make any. I can't connect through...

    Where's Hayes compatible?

    Hi, I've got a Zyxel 2864I ISDN modem. This company says they won't develop an OSX driver, so I'm stuck, unless: - someone's got the "Hayes compatible" modem script we had in the OSX PB. This script worked for me, although at a 56k rate. None of the actual OSX 10.0 modem scripts do work...

    Hi, I've got OSX installed on beige G3 266, 96 Ram. OSX and Classic work almost perfectly. Except that Classic tends to refuse to quit. I've got OS9 on one partition, OSX + OS9 on the other. While in OSX, clicking e.g. on the Word98 app or on a Word98 file icon will start up Classic, but Word...

    Start-up disk doesn't work?

    Hi, I've installed OS X on a Beige G3 266, original ATA disk 4GB, with USB + video compression PCIs. I've done two partitions, one OS 9.0.4, the other OS X. In OS X manual, they say that the first partition must be OS9. Doing so, in OSX System Prefs, if I choose OS 9 as start-up disk...
