I command-option-escaped out of the installer so I could reboot "later". About 15 minutes later, just after I had plugged a new scanner into the USB, I got this wierd thing where the screen grays out, and a window with a power button icon in back comes up saying "you must restart your computer". Huh? I guess this is Apple's new version of the Blue Screen of Death. It took me 10 minutes to reboot because it had to double-fsck.
If it really was a kernel panic, how and where do I find the traceback info? I've heard they now save to NVRAM to be picked up after reboot.
This update still didn't fix the problem on my Pismo where plugged into the wall with a full battery it still doesn't display the "plugged battery" icon and is "calculating" the charge time. And then I had one of those "Pismo hangs when going to sleep" problems (which I hadn't seen once with 10.2.0) and had to reboot again.
Let us not forget all the "real" stores in Crazy Taxi, like KFC, etc. They're not even just there for decoration either; you have to deliver people to them.
They could just build their own and put the songs in ROM and just have no input.
Why even go that far? That means having to produce a bunch of ROMs, which takes a few weeks lead time. Make the cheap disposable players with RAM inside, with trip switch to cut battery power when opened. Another benefit is it's a lot faster to write to RAM than to flash.
When I saw this article, I was expecting that it would say something about getting OS X to run on a non-Apple, non-clone motherboard. In other words, a Hackintosh. False adversiting.
Not only is it only about upgrading old Mac motherboards, but even the linked page says it's about building your own G4 from scratch. The only part of this that's not a simple "upgrade your old Mac to run OS X" is that it mentions using regular ATX cases. I can't see why you would want to do that unless you were doing a cool case mod.
Pardon me for yawning, but been there done that about to replace a Linux box with one. And the only reason I did it is I already had an old Power Computing Mac that was already sufficiently upgraded. I'm now debating whether it's worth upgrading my $60 thrift store Power Wave.
I think it should be important to mention if this is an X86-only exploit. Open source software isn't the answer to this kind of problem. CPU diversity is at least as important. If you were a script kiddie, would you rather write shellcode for one heavily used CPU architecture, or half a dozen CPU architectures?
Right now, almost all (non-script language) viruses are for X86. Most root exploits are for X86, with a few more for SPARC.
I had two boxes get rooted last year thanks to bugs in SSH, but I doubt it will happen again after I replace them with Macs running OS X. But I am glad I never got around to installing OpenSSL with Apache.
Except that the BBA doesn't run off of wall power. It gets 5 volts DC from the Dreamcast unit. 5 volts DC is 5 volts DC no matter what AC voltage it is being derived from.
They really just don't want to ship overseas. Nothing more. NCS is offering a perfectly sensible way to order one, and they're cheaper too.
I've had one email in the past year saying 'your site doesn't display properly' and that was IE on NT4.
NT4 installs IE 2.0 by default. It doesn't even work with Microsoft's own site because it doesn't support HTTP 1.1 virtual hosts, so you can't even download a newer version of IE without a lot of trouble. Anyone complaining that a site won't display properly under IE 2.0 is a complete and total idiot.
I don't see any map. All I get is a couple of pictures and two plug-in boxes. Either the site is slashdotted, or it requires you to run "Naked Flash". I refuse to leave Flash enabled because of all the annoying web ads that now (ab)use it.
The ROM hasn't been in new machines for at least two or three years now. The so-called "New World" architecture only has OpenBoot in ROM. The ROM image that MacOS 9 uses is in a file in the System Folder.
When I look at it, I see a @#%$! puzzle piece in the ad box, indicating yet again that I was right to disable Flash unless and until there's a specific page I want to view with it.
Just drag the evil Flash plug-in out of your plug-ins directory until you need it. Then drag it back in. Usually all it takes is a page reload for Mozilla to notice that it's back.
"If you see strange symbols floating in the sky above your corporate office, this might mean your wireless networks have been targeted by hackers or terrorists. Be sure to secure you wireless networks and contact the FBI immediately."
The only proprietary pieces of hardware are their motherboards and cases.
Hmmmm... I wonder who else does... could it be... DELL? Compaq and Packard Hell used to be notorious for this, but one is dead and the other was assimilated... by HP, who AFAIK does the same thing.
The fact is that it would probably take apple only a few months to port osx to x86.
The student asked the master, "Why don't we port our operating system to a newer, faster CPU?"
The master simply replied, "Even the fastest operating system with no software that will run on it makes you wait forever." And the student was enlightened.
Does OS 10.2 finally support file sharing via appletalk?
I never had problems logging into a W2K Server with Mac file sharing from 10.1, other than the lack of speed (I was transferring to the W2K machine, and downloading via Apache turned out to be about four times as fast.) One problem you may have is if you have more than one Ethernet-like interface (such as Airport) and enable Appletalk for all of them. It seems that Appletalk was never capable of multi-homing, so only one interface would ever get used. Jaguar now enforces this in the Network control panel.
Other possible problems are: 1) still using NT4 on the file server (that was two major upgrades ago!), and 2) network plumbing that somehow filters out Appletalk.
Lucky you. My PowerTower Pro (with G3 400) puked after I installed Jaguar on it (using XPostFacto). Puked as in all over the screen, followed by a kernel panic, when it restarted. Fortunately I made a point of not installing it over the working copy of 10.1.5.
What day of the week was Alien Nation on? That was the first good show to get killed by Fox.
Did he kick that ugly guy into the engine intake? I mean it was cool, but how the hell did they get that through BS&P?

Suppries!

Gee, that's nice. And how does it get in there to run the C compiler? That's right. Through an exploit. X86 shellcode.

Of course it depends on the relative orbital positions, but I thought it was on the order of 12-20 minutes round trip time.
Someone throw him a frickin' bone here!

Especially if the symbol is a bat.
It's the high-tech equivalent of rubbernecking to see the accident on the oncoming lanes of the highway.
I have come to the conclusion that all the "OS X on x86" trolls really mean "OS X on my dirt-cheap white box Taiwan chop shop special".
And because of the wonderful design misfeature of sendmail.cf where tabs are important.
