    Mail.app doesn't empty junk box

    I don't know if anyone else has this, but I've set: Erase messages in the junk mailbox when one day old. But I've still got messages sitting in the mailbox from yesterday. I don't get it. And It's time for bed now, but I'm sure when I wake more junk mail will go in, and none will come out. Is...

    Other WMs under Apple's X11

    yeah, I got that too when trying out gnome. It's probably because your path is not set right so it can't find the app. You'll be able to see the error message in console.app. That might help. But I use fink, got Blackbox and it's sweet and simple. Gnome 2.6 gave me a headache and still didn't...

    YellowDogLinux 4.0 ain't free?!

    Just in case anyone's interested, I tried out the latest of Ubuntu Linux (Warthy) on my brand new iBook (1.2ghz) and everything was detected perfectly, except Airport Extreme. I don't believe there are drivers for Airport Extreme anywhere, right? Not even on YDL. I kinda miss Linux since I've...

    Gnome on X11

    Ya, a dual boot was an option. But I figured that switching environments would be much easier by customising X11. At least it would be faster to load into Gnome than doing a reboot. I'll muck around with this till YDL 4 is free to download. Another issues i'm trying to get round is running...

    Gnome on X11

    Hi, I'm really quite new to all this. I've used gnome on Linux (Fedora) before, but never on the Mac. I managed to get Gnome installed via Fink and got it to run on X11, which is good. But got a few questions I hope to get help on. 1. Do I have to keep installing apps via Fink from OS X...

    Changing default apps

    OK, that's all really good, but I still can't get firefox icons on html files. How can that change? And since Firefox doesn't have document icons, I guess I'll have to download it from somewhere? Any tips?

    Changing default apps

    Ah i see, interesting that changing default settings are found in other apps instead of system preferences. But it works. Thanks for the tip. Did the same for the mail, changed it to Thunderbird. Just one other thing, what about icons? The icons turn to "empty documents" Can I place the firefox...

    Changing default apps

    Hi, I'm quite new to Mac OS X. Came over to the world of Mac from Windows and Linux. I like the system, just got to get to know it a bit more. I'm wondering if there's a way to change default applications. For example, i want to use Firefox as my web browser, and I can change .html files to...
