I'm having an issue with reseting curl's proxy setting. Speicifically it refuses to do so. At one point I used a proxy and now the thing is moot. So whenever a fink or whatnot attempt to updat themselves via curl I get the proxy resolve error and it fails. My question is where does curl store...

maccatalan, i have a dual 533 with a geforce2mx and my opengl info returns fullscreen = yes hardware acceleration = yes :p

Cyberdog was the best mail app ever!!!!! I loved that thing, used to take forever to load on my Performa 6400/180 runnning System 7.5.5 but it was sweet, i was sad when OpenDoc disappeared and i was forced into outlook and eudura (sp?)

I think the real reason why Apple hasnt advertised much is due to the one of its strongest assets. Its extremely loyal user base. It knows that its users have been anticipating OS X for quite some time (dust off my calendar a bit, ah, here it is) sorry folks my calendar doesnt date to before...

I found a work around. just leave distributed.net client running all the time :D well there is some truth to that... havent heard the HD spin up or down since, but the amchine hasn't gone ot sleep either... oh well, hopefully apple will address this issue. no im not getting any kick backs...

thanks macko, funny thing just after i posted this my buddy recommended crucial as well. so i took a trip over there and decided the quantity was a little more important then the quality. bought 3 dimms, 2 day fedex shipping for free as well, sweet. thanks again.

im looking to upgrade my dual 533's ram, max upgrade hopefully. can anyone suggest some companies selling quality 'hi-po' (oops, car term.. :D ) ram?? what I would like *ideally* is 3 512 CL2 dimms. but have only seen CL3. does no one make a 512 CL2 dimm??? :confused:

Im suffering the same issue and I am browsing the web, running AIM, etc... and can hear it spinning up and down, I checked the energy saver pane several times and its set to never for both system and drive. I even tried running X optimize cause I knew it would be making disk calls and such to...

I know this is pretty old school but Id like to see the AfterDark 'totally twisted' savers ported over. They were at times a little cheesy but damn I laughed my a$$ off! especially the one where the little kittens got run over by the dude on the lawn mower....hahaaha!!! btw, I used to have...

martial arts game eh? Oni didnt do it for ya? (not a true martial arts game, i know, but a step in the right direction)

you can only do a 'clean install' through and update CD onto a drive that currently has OS X installed on it. This might be necessary if you bogged your system down with a bunch of crap and you didnt want it to be included in the new updated system. Or you want a nice clean hard drive to fill up...

For anyone really interested in the real low level tech details of the PRAM, or non volatile ram as IBM puts it, heres a link to CHRP specification... http://www.rs6000.ibm.com/tech/chrp/nvram.html#REF15433

This was probably one of my best responses to my email to 'darwin-development' mailing list. On Tuesday, October 2, 2001, at 06:55 PM, Mark wrote: >Hi, > >I know this is probably off topic but please grant me an indulgence. Im new >to the development world (Sophomore, Computer Science...

I dont believe the HD will fail. Its just inaccessible (i.e. whenever it is accessed the OS goes into some infinite spinning cursor loop), its a brand new Quantum, Although its possible. Ive owned Quantums before and they are pretty good about that. Plus, both Disk Utility and Drive 10 have...

Sorry for the great length of time required for a response :D I know I promised to post my replies from 'darwin-development' mailing list and I will, but I dont have time right now... gotta go to class... My system has been down for two days!! Either the same problem or a new one, idunno I...

At this point in the game UFS sucks! I made the mistake of trying that when I installed 10.0.4 (lot of effort!) and 90% of the mac programs (native apps as well as carbon) didnt work or could not find any associated files... UFS is for desperate high-performance server types right now.

GrandpaMurder, First, you have to recognize a laptop is not the ideal gaming machine :D They have all sorts of performance corners cut (less so with apple machines but still there) to cut heat buildup / generate longer battery lives, etc.. Second, an 8 MB rage card?? Theres your problems...

In OS 9.x it had a similar method. It would generate a read/write .img file deep in the system folder (in the preferences folder if I remember right). Yea, I realized this one day after burning a CD through the finder. I was shocked to accidentally find out my normally 250 MB system folder...

I would suggest doing a PRAM reset just before you install 10.1 or anytime you have a really nasty crash. (i.e. the only method of restarting the computer is pulling the plug, or killing the power supply, rare.). It doesnt hurt, only help. In X I havent seen it affect any preferences (cause most...

I feel really stupid now!!! I solved my own problem!! I hate that!!! This was getting so frustrating I thought I might take a few shots in the dark. Remembering back to my Legacy Mac OS troubleshooting days, reseting the PRAM was one of the first things you did before even thinking of a...
