Is there a way to mount a Linux ext2 file system in MacOS X (Jaguar to be exact). Thanks in advance.

What if you have it all wrong? What if apple is working on an iPad, or some new reincarntion of the old Messagepad 2000 on an Intel Strongarm processor? What if Apple on Intel turns out to be a brand new Messagepad running MacOS 10 instead of NewtonOS? What if it is MacOS 10 with NewtonOS...

Hi I did a clean install of 10.2 on my iBook and I need to install a classic environment. I have the Macos 9 install CD that came with my iBook. If I install this over Jaguar will my system end up as it originally was with 10.1, i.e. with seperate Macos 9 sytem and application folders. I...

It looks like all the files that starts with a period are invisible. Some of our customers (that are still working under MacOS 9) are naming their files like that (.something). These files (burned on a CD) DO NOT COPY. Is there a way to see these files and be able to copy? thanks

Hey guys, I just wanted to say Hello... I am new to the Mac world... I just bought my first iMac (Blueberry) and it's already causing me headaches.:p :confused: My question involves that infamous hack for the 10.1 update. The instructions I found involve creating that copy using OS X. I have...

Calling all Mac Users, Having used Entourage X for Newsgroup reading for a long time, it seems that it's becoming out of date, as it can't handle certain attachments. I have looked around VersionTracker, Downloads.com for NewsReaders for MacOS X, and there are quite a few. Could I...

Well I did the test last night. First, I downloaded a little program called Speedrun to test both systems: 9.2.1 & 10.1.5. My setup: Pismo 400 wit two monitors, 192 mb ram, and 10 Gig hardrive. The results: 10.1.5 Graphics 179 Hard Drive...

With it's built in support for mounting network shares over NFS and SMB protocols, MacOS X is great! I can use Finder (or command line) to mount something like "smb://linuxserver/projects" to "/Users/syb/projects/" and all native MacOS X programs can r/w to the mounted "/Users/syb/projects/"...

Wouldn't it be a good idea to just implement the open source Gecko HTML-rendering engine in MacOS X. I think, like .pdf, MacOS X should be able to handle HTML (actually also things like XML) natively. It's used so commonly and it would probably boost browsing speeds in MacOS X. What do you think?

...support the graphic card of the PowerBook Pismo? if it isn't, is there any way to fix it? Thank's!!

There is an option for RAID, I think, in Disk Utility. Can someone teach me how to use it? Thanks! Regards, George Lien georgelien@email.com

Dear MacOS X users I recently have become a proud owner of Apple's new "table lamp". ;-) I'm using MacOS X in a heterogenous environment where a SuSE Linux 8.0 Professional box (standard i386 box) runs as my file server for all systems. I have stored all my productive data on it and...

Hi, I'm trying to compile ffmpeg on my MacOS X system in order to endoce some MPEG4 material. Configuring is no problem. Making has some problems. Under 10.1.5, I've got the following output: (ffmpeg version 0.4.5) make -C libavcodec all rm -f libavcodec.a ar rcs libavcodec.a common.o...

Is there anyone else managing MacOS X Server or services running on OS X? I just recently moved all of my domains to my G4 and I will soon be responsible for around 10 more servers. I think something like this would be very useful for current administrators and those thinking about switching...

What features and enhancements , etc.. you wish the upcomming MacOS to have?

Dear All MacOS X users, Could someone tell me if there is a Matrix Screensaver module for MacOS X? If not, is some kind programmer out there developing one? i know that there is one available for Windows and MacOS 9. I saw one on a Linux bos the other day, so i wondering if anyone was...

I got an email from a friend of mine and I want to make sure I give him an accurate answer. Here is his email: "From what I understand of the current crop of Mac's (G4), the "base" operating system is FreeBSD. Is that true? And the MacOS is designed to install on top of this? If this is...

I want use only the Darwin OS of the Mac OS X, because, I want a pure UNIX without the slow Aqua Interface and I have too much file to backup to create a new UNIX partition, and too long to download. I want to switch between MacOS X and Darwin. I've test to edit the /System/Library folder...
