 | Re: installing? O_o Firefox for Linux doesn't have an installation program. You can either run it from where you unpacked it, or you can move it into where it's typically installed, which is /usr/share/. To actually run the program, simply run [inlinecode]firefox[/inlinecode] found in the main folder. If it fails to run or …  |
 | Sorry, I've searched around and I although there have been questions like these, I don't think such a utility exists. If you had Windows on there, you could've used its Disk Defragmenter to do the job, but now the best way to do it is to backup all the data, … |
 | It would be nice to implement the keystroke in the quick reply box - a place where there currently is no button to hit.  |
| | It sounds like your CD drive is dead. You should probably bring it to some computer-repair place that will install a new one in for you. It's possible to install Linux without a CD, however it varies from distro-to-distro, and is usually more complicated than it seems because you must … |
 | I don't get it. I see the double eyes and mouth... but nothing happens. It doesn't really make me dizzy; the only thing that confuses me is why everyone else (except for lolhacker) find it so hard to look at. |

 | I've done it multiple times. At the moment I'm on a MacBook which can dual-boot between OS X and Debian Testing. It works fairly well, although it is a little bit of a pain to set up, compared to regular PCs. I recommend special instructions, such as the ones posted … |
 | Check your CD for scratches. It could possibly be screwing up the CD check. Or, if you're certain the CD's fine, then skip the CD check altogether and see if you can proceed. Post any error messages for deciphering here. :p And welcome to DaniWeb, and also to the Linux … |

| | I think AppleTalk [I]is[/I] ethernet... ethernet is really just a special networking cable, and TCP/IP is a network protocol that AppleTalk uses. Try AppleTalk, and see if it works. |
| | Several possibilities: The hard drive is corrupted, and although the files are listed, Linux can't copy them because there's insufficient data. This could also attribute to why Windows XP crashed. The slave drive isn't formatted/partitioned. In order for an operating system to store files on a hard disk, it must … |

| | And if you compile a program in a compiler's debug mode, it compiles the source code into the resulting executable file. I assume using some process in the program, you would be able to extract the source code (although I could be wrong). [edit] My 1000th post |
| | Just to let you know: you're going to need a fair bit of bandwidth from your ISP to be able to host games, even if they are only text-based. For example, ADSL seems fast - but only until you try uploading to clients, and then you realize the truth behind … |
| | It's because [inlinecode]strtol[/inlinecode] was an old C function written far before C++ strings were invented. Although C++ strings have overloaded functions to make transitions from the older-style char strings to C++ strings and vice-versa, this problem can't be as transparently solved when passing a C++ string to a function that … |

| | Probably the best thing for you to do right now is to (somehow) open up System Preferences, (Apple menu, or Macintosh HD->Applications->System Preferences) and then from the Accessbilities icon, go to Mouse & Trackpad. Then, enable Mouse Keys. This will allow you to use your number pad to move the … |

| | Hmmm... I think you need [URL="http://httpd.apache.org/docs/1.3/vhosts/"]virtual hosts[/URL] to make the seperate folders public - you can't simple refer in the HTML code to private files that exist on your server. After all, how is everyone supposed to see it? ;) |

 | Re: Gaming board I voted "no" in support of a Games forum, but the first thing I thought of when I saw this thread was a Game Development forum. I've been noticing lately that there's no such forum, and it's been bothering me. A Game Development forum would attract lots of discussion about … |

| | I would say that your DVD drive (or at least the burning part of it) is dead/broken. So the burning doesn't work, although apparently it can still read fine. You have several options at this point: [list] [*]Get a new SuperDrive and replace it with the current one in your … |
| | Re: Monitor Problems Most likely your monitor is dead. If you have a spare one, try it with your computer, or if not, you can often pick up a cheap $10 one at a local thrift store. Failing that, I would say there's probably something wrong with your graphics card. Hope this helps |
 | Hello, You should check out the source of some open-source game engines such as [URL="http://apocalyx.sourceforge.net/"]Apocalyx[/URL], [URL="http://irrlicht.sourceforge.net/"]Irrlicht[/URL] or [URL="http://www.crystalspace3d.org/tikiwiki/tiki-view_articles.php"]Crystal Space 3D[/URL]. That should help you better understand how game engines work. Game engines, as you probably already know, try to abstract you from the technical details of operating a graphics library, … |

| | Re: home network [quote=mksctg;288738]how i'll setup my home network between two or three pcs.[/quote] Be careful - a single ethernet cable isn't going to be able to network more than 2 computers. For 3, you'll need a router/switch, and in that case, you should be using straight-through ethernet cables instead of crossover cables. … |
| | Most likely due to the fact that most of the objects referenced in mmsystem.h are actually defined in winmm.lib -- a library you need to link your program with, or you'll get a ton of errors. In the compiler configuration, look for a list of .libs, then add winmm.lib to … |

| | Perhaps there's a loose cable, or maybe the screen is dying. If you're feeling handy, get out a screwdriver (non-magnetic!), and follow the instructions in the Apple manual to open up the iMac. Try wiggling some cables and make sure nothing's amiss. Other than that, I'd say bring it to …  |

| | In response to [URL="http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/thread25111.html"]this thread[/URL], I have created a poll asking for supporters of a Game Development forum.
