The 10.2.6 update was just released and is supposed to address some Kernel panic issues in 10.2.5, and some USB hub compatibility issues. Somewhere, on another list, I saw a notice about USB hubs and 10.2.5. I was having some trouble with some of my apps, so I disconnected the Belkin powered...

I had the same problem with screen color after moving my iMac to my office, then doing an update to 10.2.3. Not sure whether it was the physical move (unlikely), or the update install (more likely), but all I had to do was go to System Preferences>Displays>Color, and select the calibrate...

Many thanks, Brian. This is a big help!!

Not here, not yet. I tried again this evening, several times, altering settings, etc., but no luck so far.

I tried this, but still cannot get gimp to run. Other X11 apps run, and I can add them to the menu, but not gimp. Any changes I need to make in my startup files after installing X11 and gimp? Any other suggestions?

Well, I'm happy now, very happy! I got my Wordperfect back, downloaded and installed it, and it runs absolutely like a champ under Classic! If you're interested, you can find it at: http://acmfiles.csusb.edu/corel/wpmac.html Version 3.5 enhanced, with link to an updater for OS 8 & 9...

Ditto for me. I'm running pine on my iMac, and it set up nicely, and sends mail like a champ, but I am not receiving, at all. I've read through the material, but am having no luck in configuring it to receive mail.

I've seen this mentioned several times, but I couldn't find it in any of the threads. How do I install OS 9.2.2 on an external HD? I have nothing but Jag on my iMac and iBook, but there are a couple of Classic apps I'd like to continue to use.

Thanks, John. I just checked that this morning and you were right!

I'm thinking of going back to OS 9.2x on my iBook, in order to improve performance, and to use some Classic software. (I now have Jaguar running on both iMac and iBook. The iMac is nice and snappy, but my iBook, while acceptable, still runs a bit sluggishly for my taste.) Any things I...

iSync, iDisk, iCal,.Mac, and no server? I tend to be patient about things like this, but it is a bit crazy-making when I can't get my mail. I just set up my work accounts to be forwarded to my .Mac account; I just set up iSync; I need to update my calendars for family and work--and I can't...

The IE problem mentioned--disappearing text--has been solved, on another list. If you go to Peferences>Web Browser>Interface Extras, and de-select "Enable Quartz text smoothing," your disappearing text problem will be solved. The same tip applies to all MS products that use text smoothing...

Installed neatly, didn't close anything, and yes, there is a noticeable improvement in peformance. I've checked a couple of sites, and it definitely loads more quickly. So far, so good.

This feature may not be worth much, but it's kind of interesting. I haven't seen it mentioned before. I just discovered, quite by accident, that the mailbox drawers in Mail app, which can slide out to either left or right, will slide in either direction when dragging and dropping a mail...

Since ram is so cheap right now, I decided to spring for the whole hog. I'm now up to 1gb on my iMac. Just installed it, and though I was at 768mb and doubted whether the extra would make a difference, I was wrong. It has confirmed what everybody has said: Jaguar loves ram!! The...

Whheeeewwwwww!!! I thought I had lost my mind. holmBrew, you have saved my bacon! When I upgraded to Jag, all my Terminal settings seemed to be lost, forever. Nothing worked the way it was supposed to, and for the life of me, I couldn't figure it out. Thanks loads.

Let me try this one more time, and type it in correctly. :) In every app I've checked, the cancel function is triggered by using the esc key. Where more than one option is given in a dialog, the cmd key + the initial letter of the choice works to activate that choice, as in "don't save,"...

Sorry, friends. I used the wrong symbol. Please insert esc key where appropriate in my previous post. In other words, what I wrote was: The esc key functions as Cancel, in every app I've tried, including the system shutdown dialog.

I don't think it's necessary to change to "Full Keyboard Access" for most items. The <esc> key functions as "cancel," in every app I've tried, including system shutdown dialog. In other apps, where more than one choice is given in a dialog, the <cmd> + initial letter seems to work. For...

Please ignore my last post on this thread. I am relatively new to Terminal and didn't realize that the "bold" color setting applied to links.
