Hey all, My home computer is behind a brick wall so I need to reverse tunnel from it to my computer at work in order to have access from there. I load the plist into launchd with the "-S aqua" option to take advantage of ssh-agent running by default in Leopard, this allows me to use an...

Here's an interesting one: Is there any clean way to revert back to the client system onto which I added the additional applications/files from the included installer? I've considered using pacifist to find and kill what files it installed, but at the same time I get an uneasy feeling in my...

I've been trying to get launchd to automatically launch and kill my bitTorrent Client, with no results. I have tried calling both shell scripts and the application itself from within a plist I know was successfully loaded with launchctl. Here is the current plist, which calls the client...

Hey all, I have an interesting remnant from a previous safari it would seem... what I'm talking about is the debug menu... now with some interesting options... namely "Use Transparent Window" which removes the drop shadow and makes the window transparent for an instant when pages are loading...

Afternoon, Something that has been bothering me lately, is that my system (2x2GHz g5) will spontaneously stop accepting alphanumeric input from my keyboard. Modifier key combinations still works (command tab for example) but actually trying to input into text boxes fails miserable. The problem...

My obsessive friend just AIMed me about 500 Bach songs, in addition to the few hundred I already had. Being a classical music freak myself I'm attempting to organize the music by the proper cataloguing scheme. Basically this just entails reformatting a ton of ID3 tags, something for which I...

Greetings, Having two keyboard and two monitors next to eachother (for separate computers) I foolishly deleted my entire documents folder on the more important computer. Tried using data rescue X, which proved useless... however norton UnErase worked wonderfully in finding the important...

I need to attach a 20" cinema display to my 450 MP G4 (gigabit ethernet,) and I am not sure whether my radeon 32MB is capable of supporting that monitor. Various apple pages imply that I would need to upgrade to a geforce2 mx... but for some reason I can only seem to find geforce2s for the g4...

Greetings, After moving to a new house, I've decided that I want to be able to control itunes vocally from various different locations in the building. Rather than trying to run 50 ft microphone cables to a computer hooked up to the main stero system downstairs, I've been using a sattelite...

i'm really confused as to how the hell a quicktime/itunes update could have caused this... but I was previously running my display at 1280x1024@75 Hz... and after rebooting it won't go any higher than 60 Hz (quite the bloody pain in the eyes)... what the heck happened! graham

Although I hate to use an analogy to windows... the start menu key + R presents a very nice dialogue through which you can run any DOS command. (perhaps the only convenient feature i've found yet.) Yes you can run a command from within terminal, but it's not very convenient to be in that...

This seeems as if it should be an easy problem to fix... but after installing xmms via fink, I can't add anything whatsoever to the playlist, no matter how hard I try. Thus I have no way to verify the player even works. thanks, graham

Well... maybe not hate, because about two thirds of the way through my installation it failed miserably, leaving me with a half complete system, that wouldn't boot at all, even into single user mode, so basically I'm wondering if anybody else has had this problem. G4 dual 450 with a damn lot of...

Every single application that uses the spellchecker service replies. "Could not contact spellchecker" when i tell it to spell check, or when it does it while i type. Overall this is rather annoying, i was wondering if maybe this was specific to my system, or a more global 10.3 issue. Any help...

First of all, it's been a long time since i have been on this forum, so hello everyone. Next, i don't know why, but applications such as acrobat reader (and full version for that matter,) as well as illustrator, nav, have decided that they will unexpectedly quit before they ever fully load. I...

i'm sitting here with EtherPeek and ethereal, wondering how to set myself into promiscuous mode. Curiously this procedure is absent from the built in man pages, so I applied the standard procedure to no result. ifconfig en0 promisc ifconfig en0 192.168.1.x promisc both return...

hmm.. I installed Reason demo and it killed itself, every other app, and the computer... it took core audio with it... I can't hear anything, the volume keys won't work, nothing! ack!! help!

okay so i had to reinstall a while ago after messing with linux partitions and screwing over something or other. Anyways I reinstalled and was happily wolfensteining along until i needed to su in order to build an irc bot.. i went to netinfo and authenticated... then i went to enable root...

I absolutely love Dreamweaver, and have used it time and time again.. but the server which I primarily use for hosting was recently broken into via standard ftp and has switched to using "only" sftp, scp, and cvs. I am wondering if anybody else has managed to get dreamweaver to deal with such an...

hmm... i haven't posted in a while... At any rate, I was wondering if anybody has ever tried to overclock any sort of apple-used processor before. I don't know off hand what temperatures the newest G4's run at; but I have been thinking they may have some room to "burn" (hehe) This has been...
