I have three things I'm having problems with.
1). Why isn't locate returning matches in Jaguar? It worked in 10.1, but now when I try to locate something, nothing returns. As in, in the terminal I type 'locate .xinitrc' or whatever filename. Nothing happens. If I type 'locate' without a filename specified correctly it returns that it needs a filename to locate.
2). How can I start X programs from the Terminal? As in, not launching it from an X terminal like Xterm. So if I typed launched xmms, it would automatically launch it in X. Also assume X is already running. Odd request I know, but I don't like Xterm.
3). (This is the hardest one I think). I use Fink, and I've installed Evolution, so all the dependencies should be fulfilled. I can recieve messages just fine. But whenever I try to compose a message it simply returns-
"Cannot create composer window:
Unable to active HTML editor component.
The error from the activation system is:
Nothing matched the requirements."
I have no idea what this means. I have Konqueror and Mozilla installed. I even have Evolution set up NOT to send email as HTML anyway.
The last thing is not so much a question. But I'm curious. Has anyone gotten any browser on OSX to work with proxies? Besides IE I mean? I'm running Junkbuster on my machine. And, as you probably know, proxies are set up through the OS, not the browser in OSX. IE automatically detects that and works fine. But no such luck with Mozilla (X or OSX) or Omniweb, and if I try to set them up to use a proxy, no go. The only one that does seem to work is Konqueror, but who wants to use Konqueror anyway. It's too crashy, and takes too long to load.
