Hi, I have a project to do in C++ with the wxWidgets UI libraries. I downloaded the latest stable release (2.6) from the official website (http://www.wxwidgets.org/dl_mac2.htm). configure runs fine, but when trying to compile it using make I get: Now, since it mentions webkit extensively...

Hi, I'm wondering wether I should buy the Tiger CD or DVD family pack. All my computers save one have a DVD reader, and I appreciate the convenience of having the OS on a single disk. However, I also want to be able to install it on an old iMac G3 with only a CD-RW. Is there a way for me to do...

Hi, in order to have unrestricted access to the internet from my dorm I have set up a VPN using OpenVPN between it and an other mac at home. This VPN uses the tun1 network interface from the tunnel.kext extension, which does not appear in the list of interfaces in the "sharing" system...

Hi, I would like to know if anyone here knows how to run an ssh connection though an HTTP or HTTPs proxy, in order to use port-forwarding. I've heard of the command-line utility corkscrew, which is supposed to do this, but I cannot manage to compile it - when running its configure command, I...

Hi, I need to compile a code exemple which includes X11 windows with g++; the code in question was intended for UNIX. When compiling, I get many failures to link to X11 libraries; I guess it is only a problem of those libraries being somewhere else on OS X. Can any one help? Simply knowing...

Hi, I remember reading not long after the iTMS's launch of a way for non-Americans to buy songs by buying temporary American credit cards from a net-based company, or something like that. Has anyone ever heard of that, or better yet, used it yourself? With the euro rising fast, CD prices...

Hi, I have a programming assignment due for monday and I'm at home on my parents' iMac, which does not have the dev tools... I'm downloading the dev tools from Apple's website, but it looks like it is going to take 24 hours, which does not leave me time enough to finish my assignment. Does...
