Looking at our/. account numbers I am new here:-) Maybe 5 years now?
But I seem to remember that only 6 months or so ago only half of the stories were posted.
Whatever, maybe there's a nieche with selecting good/. stories and post them on a different site again. After modding and so on.
That is a point. Honesty begins with general acceptance of ownership and not just some kind of Robin Hood like acting. Doesn't matter if some RIAA is bad or not. If you don't like them, don't buy from them. If your favourite artist is contracted by them, buy their CDs or vinyls. Or don't. Now you made a good point..
I miss that Slashdot quality assurance thing that used to be. I mean editors seem to publish more and more unuseful things over the time. I think/. readers should not need to read all those rumors. There is enough ThinkSecret, AppleInsider and so on to look for this kind of information. What's wrong here anyway?
BTW, thanks for modding me down. I am actually a Mac user and I love both, Mac and/. I just don't like recent steps taken by both.
Thanks for reading. You can now turn off your computer.
Thank you. I really love Apple and their products but sueing sites that kinda force the masses into buying stuff... well, that's kinda ugly. Without all the buzz around Apple and all their secrets there would be only half the fun. I bet most of their "secrets" were revealed to thos sites by Steve himself. I never imagined to be modded troll for a simple comment like that./. is really getting worse.
What would actually be the possible maximum for graphic cards memory to use in terms of texture and so on. Is it depending on screen solution or on other things?
since I switched over to Apple the average speed of the system got faster. I got an iBook 500 and from update to update (i.e. 10, 10.1, 10.3) it starts up much nicer and seems to work better than better before. This is something I never experienced with any of the MS systems. Funny, isn't it?
the mac version has been gpled on the os X platform I think in 2003. Go and see some cool project http://ranger.befunk.com/blog where they try to port KDE to OS X natively.
Looks really nice from the screenshots. Something between Gnome and KDE (but more Gnome like) Thanks to the developers, I'll give it a try if I get it to run on my PPC Ubuntu:-)
Computer Science introductions are freely available over the faculty servers (in German though).
For example Informatik I and II and others are here: http://porta.informatik.uni-freiburg.de/electure/k urs.php
There is much more but mostly hidden somewhere. Just ask and you'll find out more.
This book is probably sponsored by MS, I guess. I have my iBook running for more than 2,5 years without any problem. There is no such thing. If you're too stupid to handle a computer, a book won't help either. With a Mac the user becomes the problem not the machine. Wake up, this is not Windows world.
The native KDE stuff is still a beta thing but if you don't mind to leave some of its functions like import filters you might want to give it a try. Works fine for me. Have a look at its Wiki over at KDE on Darwin. Also available are binaries.
Some of the things I miss from ADC is that documentation updates that seem to be on a regular basis are not downloadable. I don't have access to the net all the time I develop so it would be nice to have it completely offline. As well a search function would be nice. I have it aliased in my apache so a simple php search would be convenient.
I hope they'll also release a PPC Version again. I always preferred SuSE to any other Distro unter x86. PPC Distros are rather rare and not as good as PC ones. Maybe Gentoo is quite good but it takes way too long to compile on my iBook.
Imagine you have a script installed, testwise, something like webmin and that searchengine hops and clicks all round and crashes your server. Of course you're not supposed to have scripts like that openly usable but mistakes like that do happen.
Of course there is more than just one Ranger Rick doing all that cool stuff. But he's the one who keeps people getting more and more crazy about KDE on Darwin. Anyway, thank you to all the other developers who make life even more interesting on the Mac side. Hope you guys win everything there is:-)
Unfair because the winner seems to be obvious. Take a close look at what this Ranger Rick has done so far: Ricks Blog on Qt/Mac That guy has almost completed porting KDE to Mac OS X. That is really cool stuff.
He and his companios really deserve the G5 and iPods and whatever else is to win:-)
scanimage: open of device mustek_usb:libusb:000:002 failed: Error during device I/O
This actually happened with 0.1 as well (weeks before:-) this was posted)
Maybe someone knows something about this and might help.
BTW, the scanner Im trying to run is figured out right by sane (mustek Scan Express 1200 CU)
When I still used 10.1 cause I couldnt affort Jaguar I thought it might be somehow useful to have instead a up to date Linux. I remember my old PC days when I ran Suse on my machines and everything was fine and easy to install and configure and use. Okay I thought same should apply to Apple hardware. But everything I tried kinda failed from the first minute. Gentoo run really smooth but updating on an iBook 500 was just to much. 2 days compiling for KDE and Xfree was too long, Mandrake was kinda messy with its firewall and sometimes didnt exactly do what I told it to do. Then I tried YDL. Worst part in my Distro checking. Absolutely no configuration possible. No easy software updating. At least nothing as easy as I used to know under Suse. So I finally got my Panther and have Fink installed. No more Linux on my partitions.
:-) Thats funny. I just found that out myself when I installed another account on my machine and everything was okay with scrolling. I figured that it was smooth scrolling and yup, it works. Im wondering why they call it smooth scrolling???
When you create an new account in mail.app and tick off ckeck for new mail (or something like that because I use a different language) Mail still checks for mail from that server. That is actually no problem when your mail is forwarded to another account you are actually checking and you just use that first account for sending mail. But my provider gives reports of how much spam and so on checked in and that is not forwarded so it always comes into my mailbox.
Next uncool feature is the inbox collection instead of leaving it where it belongs to. I have a bunch of accounts but my inboxes never show up together with thei Imap folders. Thats annoying since I cant re-move it back to its own folder. I dont know, maybe this was already a 'feature' in 10.2 but 10.1 was much better with that.
Another thing is the menu bar which gets always messed up. SPeakers, time and so on look messed once a program with many entries shows up.
Anyway, I like Panther.
PS One more bug is the mouse wheel. Its so jumpy to scroll a page in browsers. Nothing smooth anymore.

I got a mac too. So what? It runs Linux just as fine as on any other mashine.

I feel a bit ashamed of my Hardware and Software manufacturer of choice. Bad move, Apple.
I wonder who got all the data now. Losing stuff is bad but finding stuff in the wrong hands is much worse.

Maybe the government didn't know any names either and just made it look like something blotted out? Let other people try to find out :-)

As always they do a great job! Especially with Fire- and Thunderbird.
