*bump* Anyone? I really need some help with this... Thanks.

Hi, I use my Linux machine as a file server, and in some of the filenames I use nordic characters (Å, Ä, Ö). I want to use NFS to mount it on my Mac, but character encoding is screwing it up for me. When I mount an NFS share from my Linux machine, all file/folder names that have those special...

Well, I've had this problem for quite a while, but it hasn't really bothered me, until now... The thing is this; Whenever I try to bring up the standard Font dialog (Via 'Show Fonts' in like the Terminal or TextEdit), nothing happens. It seems like somethings loading for a fraction of a second...

Hi. I'm trying to install a CLI FTP/FXP client called pFTP (http://pftp.suxx.sk/pftp/), and I'm having huge problems. No, it's not available through fink, so I have to compile it myself, and yes, I have the Developer Tools installed.. First, when I run the ./configure script, i get this...

Anyone? Or is there a good replacement for terminal.app that can use ANSI colors correctly, and be transparent :)

I've had my Mac for 4 days now and I'm loving it. I have a small gripe with Terminal.app though. When running programs that display ANSI color text (like BitchX and irssi), all colors will display correctly, except the one BitchX calls "Dark gray" (I don't know the real ANSI color codes), it...

I'm looking for a way to put only the monitor to sleep, not the entire computer. Main thing is I don't want to have to wait 5 minutes before it does, and not have to change the energy settings every night.

I was wondering if it's possible to make the monitor go to sleep with a Terminal command.. I have my computer in the same room I'm sleeping, and I have it on all the time, so I don't want the monitor on when I'm sleeping (I have an eMac). Right now I have to go to System Prefs' Energy Saver pane...
