Turned out the jumper I was using to terminate the internal drive was broekn,. Soon as I replaced it, all worked ok.

Having looked at the problem a little, it seems that Mail.app will get hung up on sending to SMTP servers that send more than one 220 greeting line. This mailhost gives me the 220-…

I have had the same exact problems as BooBoo. The diference is I have a stock Dual 450. I removed all 3rd party devices and never even touched my DVD drive. Right now I'm zeroing …

OS X will definatley have a probelm with SCSI CDR. Try replacing with the old one - probably gonig to need it for X anyway. Had major problems installing X on a beige. Finally w…

I couldn't install 10.0 on my Beige G3/300 until I returned it to its original condition (down to the master/slave IDE config). Once I installed, though, I re-customized the config…

Schwa, you had better luck than I did. The only way I can get 10 or 10.1 loaded onto my G3/266 is to pull the HD and put it in a G4. If I try to boot from the OS 10.1 CD on the …

Hi everyone, I've been trying to compile some X11 apps to use on MacOS X with the new beta of XTools, but I'm having some troubles. I found the GNU Darwin site and the sources or …

Check out my post in the FAQ. Yes, I have compiled glib and gtk+ There are patches at http://fink.sourceforge.net - wihch also contains lots of other packagesyou can compile. GN…

Thanks, I had a look at the FAQ, and also at Fink. It mentions this: "If you get errors related to macros, use the -traditional-cpp option." Where would I add that option? I did…

The C Preprocessor in OS X (made by Apple I think) goes a bit squiffy on some code. So you need to pass -traditional-cpp to cc when it compiles. This is done by adding it to the C…

Tenon has pre-compiled ports of GTK+, Gnome-libs and others you can download from their page and in the Xterm just type "make install" and your off and running!

But Tenon's XTools is an overprices PoS. Just install fink and then you can fink install gtk and things, which is even easier, and FREE!

Thanks, both of you. I've downloaded the precompiled files from Tenon, and installed Fink, too, which seems to be very helpful! Fink is currently compiling imlib, hopefully I'll …

I'm thrilled that the XonX project is as far as it is, but I really need for it to be rootless (so that Aqua and X can run side-by-side) before I can use it for anything interestin…

Ok... I did: /sw/bin/fink install gnome-libs , and it says it requires orbit and esound. However, when it was compiling esound it got this: gcc -g -O2 -L/sw/lib -o .libs/esdsampl…

Hello ... I want my NSTextView to have a transparent background. I've tried assigning a zero-percent-opacity color to the background in IB, and I've tried sending "setDrawsBackg…

Hmm... perhaps you need to subclass NSTextView, NSScrollView, or NSClipView and override <font face = "courier">isOpaque</font> to return NO. Dunno if it'll work...

you need to setup the window and the views. something like this should do it: <BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1"face="Geneva, Verdana, Arial">code:</font><HR><…

Hello ... I found the trouble. I have to send "setDrawsBackground:NO" to the NSScrollView containing the NSTextView. That is sending <BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1"face="Ge…
