I think GadgetLover posted that "kill LaunchCFMAPp to speed up OSX" as a joke... if you must see it in the process viewer... just run a few apps, like iTunes, IE, and whatever you know to be carbon (a few things I know to be cocoa show up with their name... so I'm guessing this is carbon...

you should check out "man intro" and you might wanna get one of the gui versions of man... quite convenient

This "Kill LaunchCFMApp" to speed up OSX reminds me of the time I used to play WarCraft II on PC... at the beginning of the game, me and my friends will type "Hold Ctrl-Alt-Del for turbo mode!". It doesn't work every time, but sometimes, you see "whoever has left the game" that was a...

I know that some processes come up as "LaunchCFMApp" in ProcessViewer... get the Process ID by clicking on "More Info" go to terminal, and ps "process id" (the number) and... uh... like.. that's an app you were running... duh... if you kill the apps, you're Finder will run faster...

well.. people here were kinda nice about it and sorta gave you help... but I personally feel that you shouldn't be asking for help for stuffs you obtained illegally... if people here provides help with some kids who don't know how to use their warez, doesn't it kinda make it seem like we...

there's a way to install without CD if you have an empty partition... at least it worked with the previous versions, I think... but seeing how you obtained the installer (well... looks like you don't even know who made the .sit file... :P) I wouldn't recommend doing it... I suggest you just...

First of all, thanks for the tip... everything's working... but when I reboot, it kinda gets stuck at "Starting Directory Services". The same thing happened when I was attempting to make changes to netinfo database before, so I guess it's for the same reason... Anyway... it got stuck...

looks like you found the file... but anyway, if you haven't done so already, move or remove the file from there and reboot... that should work..

Just wondering... have you done clean install? (I think many people are suggesting you do this, but we don't know if you've done this before your comment, or you did this after the suggestion) I didn't bother to upgrade, I just did clean install, so I can't say from my own experience, but I...

anyway to add pic(s) (multiple monitors) on desktop... or at least a pattern?

If you aren't all that comfortable with UNIX, just starting to learn, then I recommend "learning csh/tcsh" by O'Reilly tcsh is your default shell, so you should be pretty comfortable with it... I bought this book myself, and I think it has reduced head-scratching quite alot. My...

I'm runnin 5G64, and I've moved the swapdir to another HD (named Swap). Then after reboot, I realized that there are "Swap" and "Swap 1" in /volumes. "Swap 1" had the active swapfile and it's located in the same HD as the system, so I guess there's no point... anyway, after looking around...

(not really mac os x... but anyway) back in the day when I used to play WC2, my friend had a rather funny dream... In his dream, he was in his room when he heard somebody knocking on the door... they were banging the door really hard, so he ran to open the door... then he found 2 Ogre...

you should have developer CD... and you should install it... I think cc from it should work fine... if something asks for gcc, using link with cc should work... if you don't have developer CD... well... go buy OS X, I guess...

Thanks for the info. Right now, my desktop's more or less single user machine... if someone connect to it from remote location, it's usually me... :P So there really isn't anything to administer. but I guess it doesn't hurt to learn other (and possibly better) stuffs... so I'll try to...

what's the advantage of qmail over sendmail?

I think the beige g3 desktop models were the first to come with IDE drives (CD and HD). I don't think there's a bay you could use for another CD drive though. I think you might have to do some surgery on the case so the new mouth fits the case (I might be thinking about other model... like...

I got the damn thing to work by adding the info in Netinfo's 'machines'... the funny thing is I had to change hostname in '/etc/hostconfig' back to -AUTOMATIC-... when I change it to my domain, sendmail runs into error when I tried to send an email. Maybe I've added something unnecessary in...

when you 'update' netinfo database, is all the new info you've entered being used immediately or you gotta reboot? Thanks

ok..this isn't help for anyone at all... sorry... anyway, I have an external firewire CDRW... which works just fine... the builtin DVD drive worked only the first time the system booted after update... it opened and closed just fine... but I can open this drive only at startup now... and...
