Re: Hello, The one thing I like about KDE is the terminal with the little tabs on the bottom. One piece of screen, multiple terminals on it. I do a lot of terminal things, and it is a screensaver for me to have them all in one window. Christian | |
Re: Hello, I am not the resident virus expert for Windows here, but can tell that you will need to let the group know if Shredder gave you any specific warning messages. Those are handy for the fine folk here who help debug these things. Also, this is a great time … | |
![]() | Re: Hello, HERE HERE to lynx! I enjoy using that browser when on dialup, along with pine, to read my email. QUick and texty. I am also glad that Dani minimizes the DaniCrap on DaniWeb, so that you can use an older browser to work things here. Christian |
Re: Hi, He is exactly right, although I thought expander came with OS X. Perhaps you need a more recent copy of it. Christian | |
Re: Hello, I too would love to expirement with such a tool! Christian | |
Re: Hello, I am glad that we do not delete users, nor do we hard delete problem posts. I too see the administration nightmare. Christian | |
Below are the thoughts from a computer professional who has spent the last 10 years supporting Mac, Windows, and Linux computers in a variety of network applications. By no means will this general tips section be exhaustive -- that is what a good book is all about. I am also … | |
Re: Hello, Are you using Mac OS X, or Mac OS 9? I am assuming that this is connected via USB. I also wonder if you installed the software that came with the unit (you don't mention it). Let us know. Christian | |
Re: Hello, What may be amazing is that Dani just celebrated her 22nd Birthday, placing her birthday at Nov 11, 82. The last person to walk on the moon did so in 1973. Who would think that walking on the moon and exploring another world in the flesh would be a … | |
Re: Hello, I assume you are upgrading from Mac OS 9 to OS X. Before you do that, i would suggest a paper printout just in case something goes foul. I have not done the Mac Outlook Express conversion. I am a dutiful Eudora fan, and that upgraded flawlessly. For IE … | |
Re: Hello, These days, computer manufacturers are bundling 3rd party software with systems, such as antivirus utilities and financial packages, in addition to the operating system. Thus, the manufacturers supply Windows on these restore disks that will restore the computer to factory conditions. Unfortunately, for advanced installations, you are powerless to … | |
Re: Hello, Maybe. Maybe not. I stay away from illegal software because it is wrong to have it. What might be more interesting is if a law came through BANNING the ip numbers of Sweden onto your country's network. Traffic could not get through, and well, the stuff would be inaccessable. … | |
Re: Hello, I split your question off of the other thread you were on, as you hijacked that topic. Please feel free to open up unique threads when you have a question. What version of OS are y ou running in the 7200? OS 8? OS 9? The flashing ? mark … | |
Re: Hello, I am not seeing any pop-ups on this website. I browse with Apple/Firefox, Apple/Safari, Windoze/Firefox, Linux/Firefox, and Linux/Konquerer. No notices of attempted pop-ups. I would consider myself a regular cross-platform viewer. Christian | |
Re: Hello, I would back up my data, and start fresh with a format. I am also a big believer in making more than a C: on your physical hard drive. This prevents other problems, such as if you have to reformat your C: again, if your data is on D: … | |
Re: Hello, This is a good one. Might want to download the Windows Installer again, and make sure you get the complete package, not the little morsel that connects to the internet to get the rest of the parts. Then restart in Safe Mode. Try installing it again. Let us know. … | |
Re: Hello, Do your Event Viewer logs (Start --> Run --> compmgmt.msc) hint of what might be triggering the installer to activate? Is it consistant on what programs the installer opens on? I am wondering if you are having the .cat file problem where the permissions are all messed up. Let … | |
Re: Hello, I am sure you are referring to the Windoze utilities that IBM bundles with their computers... although Dell and Compaq and others do the same things. You should be able to find what you need off of IBM's website. I'm also going to move this topic to the 2000/XP … | |
Re: Hello, Windows 2000 is the desktop version of the operating system, geared to have hooks into all sorts of media and the like. The server products are designed for network and storage performance. You do not want to use a server product for day-to-day workstation activities. The code is different … | |
Re: Hello Sara, Please feel free to post away with your questions. Each major question should have it's own thread for clarity on the BBS. Enjoy your Mac. It is well worth it. Christian | |
Re: Hello, I use Roxio Toast for all of my disk burning needs. I have not tried to copy a DVD Movie though... I only have one device. Not certain if copy protection schemes are involved either. Christian | |
Re: Hello, Is it possible for you to show us a link to your page, so we can go see it too? Thanks Christian | |
Re: Hi, You might have to re-create the profile entirely. I assume you are not on a domain, and do not have a roaming profile. Login as an administrator, and kill the profile. Be aware that if you do this, you will lose various personal settings, such as custom desktop picture … | |
Re: Hello, I like the idea of virtualization: give me a window with Windoze on it, and all the meyhem can occur inside of it, and leave the filesystem things to OS X. I need to do more research on things like VMware and Xen. That might be the next step. … | |
Re: Hello, Interestingly enough, web browsing settings on OS X are controlled in Safari. I think you need to go into the menus of Safari, and tell it not to open, and have Opera open up instead. I would walk you through it, but at the moment, my Mac is not … | |
Re: Hello, For those of you interested in running Linux on Mac hardware, look at [url]www.yellowdoglinux.com[/url] for a RedHat port, or if you have an older PowerMac with NuBus slots, you can try mklinux available from Apple. While OS X works well, it is too much for the 7100 - 8100 … | |
Re: Hello, FrontPig doesn't compare to Dreamweaver. That is like saying a Pinto compares to a Semi Truck. I would have said something like Adobe GoLive. My earlier pages were done with GoLive, and they looked nice. Christian ![]() | |
Hello Community, I just wanted to write and say goodbye. With the coming of parenthood, and some other things beyond my control, I am departing DaniWeb and the Community. I wish you all well. To the folks whom I have had the pleasure of meeting and growing with, I'd like … | |
Re: Hello, This is a nice post / topic. A Mac should work with any ISP that a PC works with, unless you have one that specifically does something Windows only, such as needing Microsoft or Citirix VPN solution into a corporate network. But that is not your traditional ISP that … | |
Re: Happy Birthday, Dani. *goes out to shed to find the birthday paddle* :) Christian | |
Re: Hello, Couple of things here. You might be connected to the Airport Extreme (AE), but the AE might not be routing to the internet properly. Not ever owning one, I am not sure how they are setup. I would bet there is a webpage in the AE that you may … | |
Re: HI, I think it is a dumb idea. Nothing like a bunch of mercinaries on the website. Nopers. Christian | |

Re: Hello, Firefox on the major three -- linux, windoze, macintosh. Also enjoy using lynx. Lynx is especially great for calling from crontabs to download audio files and other sources of information that require automation, yet are http based. Christian | |
Re: Hello, My servers are on 24 x 7, and I tend to be on them anywhere from 2 - 4 hours after work. Sometimes I run with the laptop, and watch TV or a movie while surfing or whatnot. Weekends? Rarely. And not on Friday night. Christian | |
Re: Hello, I could not "get" Run Lola Run. I understand the meaning of time, and the powerless feeling of trying to go back and change something to just encounter another struggle. Oh well. Hands down, I think The Lord of The Rings is just superior with attention to detail, filming, … | |
Re: Daily for sure. Sometimes more than once a day. And the rest is, well, unmentionable. :) | |
Re: Hello, Music is very important to what I do, as it sets the mood, and lets others in the house (fiancee) know what my mood is, and what I am up to. It can also muffle out certain curse words that I may aim at the beastie! Musical tastes differ … | |
Re: Hello, This one really depends on the family dynamics, and what the items in question are all about. You mention paying bills... did they take a vacation, and want you to pop for it, or did their car break down, and you got them a rental car for the time … | |
Re: Hello, Open IE, and type this in: [url]http://63.240.140.119[/url] and let me know if you resolve The Milwaukee Journal. If you do, and you see a newspaper web-page, this means that your DNS is messed up, and we have to take a look at your DNS server. If you do not … | |
Re: Hello, Which Mac OS are you looking to add the printer to? Are you looking for an OS 9 or an OS X driver? The Laserwriter Pro 4/600 PS is a Postscript printer, and you would be able to use other Postscript drivers such as the HP 4 series drivers, … | |
Re: Hello, The stability of Win 98 is comparable to some short-lived radioactive isotopes of Lawrencium. Christian | |
Re: Hello, With knowledge --> power --> responsibility. It is unethical to circumvent the firewall in place at your institution. Once you mature, you will understand why. I used to IT consult in educational facilities, and I remember seeing user agreements between the students and the staff for internet access. Perhaps … | |
Re: Hello, A Mac is a computer, and even under OS X, a very cool and awesome OS, it is possible to get a virus. Not likely, but possible. If you are running on Mac OS X as a local administrator, you have a better chance of deeply infecting your machine … | |
Re: Hello, I would seriously consider getting OUT of IT. Why? Because of the lack of respect of the position in the corporate world. Take a look at recent articles in Network Computing or Information Week. Articles all over about downsizing, outsourcing, mismanagement and the like. People who are working are … | |
Re: Hello Peter, Couple things that I see that need help on.... 1. When you declare the variable (numsales), it is a good idea to initialize it manually before starting to use it. Some compilers may assign a goofy number to the new variable. So, after your init numsales; I would … | |
Re: Hello, I missed #8 too. I found, however, that some of the questions were misleading. Without spilling the beans on the exam, there are challenges on some of the terms of office, and along the lines of who asks vs. who confirms. I would word it slightly differently to avoid … | |
Re: Hello, I have the Bachelor's of Science, Microsoft Certified Professional, Certified Netware Administrator (4.1.1), and an Amateur Radio License. Christian | |
Re: Hello, I love my MacBook too! You won't be able to run Classic applications on it, nor will Classic / OS9 programs work with it. If you have such programs, go get your older computer, optimize it for using the old programs, and perhaps use a remote-control utility and bury … | |
Re: Hello, I like LILO or GRUB. Am using GRUB more these days. Christian |
The End.
