    ICMP Port

    In OS X, using a certain trace route utility, I always get an error message saying "There appears to be a firewall at hop 0 or 1 that is blocking incoming ICMP TTL expired in transit messages for hops 1-32. Please contact your network administrator for help." I'm sitting on my G4 behind an...

    Apache 2.0.35 Released

    Yup, that's right, Apache has released the latest httpd. Will it work for us OS X users? Only time will tell. After 10 minutes of a "./configure" I found that I had to do "./configure ppc". BE SURE to put that ppc on the end. As you know, the next step is a "make." Well, after one hour of...

    Retail Sharp Zaurus Released

    "It looks like Sharp has finally released the Linux based Sharp Zaurus SL-5500 for retail sale. This thing is so awesome! Other than only being able to listen to mp3's thru my headphones only, this thing blows away my iPaq 3835! It even has Opera as the web browser."

    Two AirPort Connections to Double Bandwidth

    Ok, here's the thing. I have 512kbps Cable, as do my neighbors. I have an AirPort base station and an AirPort card in this G4. They have a linksys wireless router for the PCs they have. I can connect to their network and surf the net from there because they are just close enough to sustain a...

    How-to: Compile Perl 5.6.1

    First of all, you need to have the Apple Developers Tools 10.1 installed. Okay, here we go. Remember, whenever I have something in quotes, it means that's what you type, no quotes included. Make sure you look through the whole How-to before you actually do it, otherwise you may accidentally...

    Drive Modification Problems

    OK, here's the deal. I bought my G4 with a DVD-ROM built in in October of 1999. It's a 400MHz G4 with 512MB of RAM and a Radeon AGP with 32MB of VRAM. Later on, I bought an external CD-RW drive and use it with Firewire. Since I hardly ever use the DVD, and always use the burner, I switched...

    Alarm

    Is there any way to set your computer so that it TURNS ON at a certain time and then play an MP3 file. My alarm clock just doesn't work. I need loud, amplified, wall-shaking music.

    AirPort Bandwidth Leeching

    I have my house set up with AirPort 2. This computer (G4) has the card in it, and the other computer (G3) is connected via LAN. Well, our cable went out, so I was stuck with no internet. I then looked at the AirPort status menu and saw a network called "linksys." I had never seen this before...

    Driver Hacking

    Ok, here's my situation, my dad has an unsupported USB CD-RW Drive that he could use with Toast under OS 9. The problem is, he can't use it at all in X. Not even with Toast PR2 for OS X. I was wondering where the drivers are kept in OS X and if it's possible for me to hack one of the current...

    10.1.1 Clock Woes

    I noticed after the 10.1.1 update, when 12:00 AM comes around, instead of saying 12:00 AM it says 00:00 AM. I tried entering 12 manually in the Date & Time section of System Prefs, but that set it to PM, so I clicked to make it AM and it set it back to 00! Is there a way to fix this or is it a...

    Slight System Speed Inrcrease

    I just found this out, and although you may not notice much of a speed up, it's there. In the terminal, type "sudo update_prebinding -root /" It pre-binds commonly used libraries to speed everything up. I set it up as a cron job to do it automatically every week.

    Unsupported AirPort

    I know this seems like a stupid question, but is there ANY way at all to install and AirPort card on my Beige G3 233Mhz (Rev. A) that, obviously, doesn't support AirPort. This would save me a lot of time and money attempting to run wires through the walls and ceilings.

    Stupid CD Tray Tricks

    If you are lucky enough to have two CD drives of any kind (DVD-ROM, CD-RW, CD-ROM, etc.) with a computer that has 10.1, you can do some odd things. Hit the F12 button and they both eject. You can have races to see which one is faster...Or, you could manually eject one, leaving the other...

    vhosts and iTunes

    I've got two questions: Is there a way to add vhosts to Mac OS X 10.1 without having to give them a unique IP address and then use them for IRC? Does anyone know how to get more bass out of iTunes. The playback is whimpy at best. Audion has nice bass controls, but it doesn't have all the...

    Remote Debugger

    Does anyone know how to set up a remote debugger. You know that message, at the end of kernel panic, about the remote debugger. Apparently, if you have the right software on another computer, you hook it up to the ethernet port and you can debug the error. I saw a tutorial for this somewhere...
