Don't know what caused the first error. That happened to me on my Pismo yesterday. This usually means a serious error in the kernel. Your only option at this time is to restart. It is displayed in several languages because the computer is inoperative at that point. As for your other errors, I don't know. Did you check your disk with Disk Utility? -Laurent. -- ============================================================================ Laurent Daudelin AIM/iChat: LaurentDaudelin <http://nemesys.dyndns.org> Logiciels Nemesys Software mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] brute force adj.: Describes a primitive programming style, one in which the programmer relies on the computer's processing power instead of using his or her own intelligence to simplify the problem, often ignoring problems of scale and applying naive methods suited to small problems directly to large ones. The term can also be used in reference to programming style: brute-force programs are written in a heavyhanded, tedious way, full of repetition and devoid of any elegance or useful abstraction (see also brute force and ignorance). -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
