This is OS9 of course, the OSX version always crashes on me.

I have 640 megs of ram. I don't know if it's the model without L2 cache. It's a Quicksilver model. I have to run it in software rendering. I've heard of that problem before, I just figured it was a problem with Nvidia cards. With Rave or OpenGL, the frame rates drop really low. In...

I've been thinking about upgrading my video card for a few games (mainly Shadowbane, and well, if anything can help Diablo 2 run decently in either 9 or X that'd be great). What are the options? I have a G4-733, so it's got that Geforce2. Pretty much all I've seen is the ATI Radeons 8500...

It's gotten some very bad reviews for good reason. It was released as a beta quality product. Now it's two months later, and the game has actually gotten less stable. The servers are completely unstable. The graphics are about EQ Classic quality, only it's not smooth, the frame rate is...

I recently got an Xbox. I think of it is as like a Dreamcast Jr., which is still my favorite system to date. Jet Set Radio Future is fantastic, it's not quite as good as the original, but I still love it and it's beautiful. I think it's the best thought out console though. I have a PS2, it's...

I have the same machine. Geforce 2 MX, 733 Quicksilver w/ 640 megs. Yeah, a better video card would probably help. But honestly, I never had any problems with it on my machine. Never got too choppy, and the graphics were quite crisp. Also, I know most people won't agree with me, but I...

I'm trying to figure out how to get rsync to backup to a Firewire harddrive. I run my little thingamajig to run it (down at the bottom), but everytime it runs, it just says it's skipping every directory in the / directory. And then says: chown etc : No such file or directory chown tmp : No...

Just type 'fink description windowmaker'. If you have problems with a specific patch, usually that'll contain info about configuring a package to start using it. It says to run wmaker.inst to make a .xinitrc. So either try typing that from the prompt, but if it says something like command...

What do you mean grey screen? And did you create a new .xinitrc for use with Windowmaker? If you read the description of Windowmaker it tells you how to make a .xinitrc for Windowmaker, you have to run a script which sets it up for you automatically (just putting exec windowmaker in your...

Okay, I got it. I understand what you were talking about now, but I found a more detailed set of instructions thanks to the OroborOSX website. Just add the following to your .cshrc file in your home directory: if( ! $?DISPLAY ) then setenv DISPLAY :0.0 endif

Actually, when in a terminal and I need something beyond my permissions, I just switch to root instead of sudo. That's probably bad juju. Anyway, I don't use bash, I use tcsh. You're tips didn't make much sense to me. Are those parameters to put in some config file? Or do you just type...

Well, with Fink, it's not very difficult. Fink automates installing from source, so you don't have to edit the config files and stuff like that to get it specifically set up for you. it's actually easier than using dselect or apt-get to install from the binaIries. Though, it's much slower...

Umm, heh, I just ran /usr/libexec/locate.updatedb and now it works. Still kind of funny that I wasn't able to find anything at all. I guess updating to Jaguar totally removes the locate journal or whatever.

Fink has Windowmaker, has for quite awhile. Maybe you mean it doesn't have a binary version. And not everything has to be built with Fink. Some of it can be installed from binary. Of course, the binary versions of the applications Fink offers is going to be a bit behind the current source...

I have three things I'm having problems with. 1). Why isn't locate returning matches in Jaguar? It worked in 10.1, but now when I try to locate something, nothing returns. As in, in the terminal I type 'locate .xinitrc' or whatever filename. Nothing happens. If I type 'locate' without a...
