Extreme angle lights out resolved?

2004-12-06 Thread Erik Ness
The problem I reported several days ago was the iBook screen light 
going out in the last few degrees of opening to full. Sent it back to 
Apple, they took out a newly installed memory and blamed it on that. 
And so it was fixed. And so I put the memory back in to see for 
myself, and still it was fixed. Poor seating? Affecting such a random 
element of function so incrementally? Very strange.

Cheers,
Erik

OT Security alert....

2004-10-23 Thread Erik Ness
Referenced on Slash-Dot today:
http://macintouch.com/opener.html
There's now a real virus out there for Mac OS X that can do some 
real damage

If you read all the way through you'll see that the original claim of 
a virus may be a bit strong, but it is a chilling read nonetheless.

FileMaker 7 blows the doors off of FM6. Don't be fooled by the

FM has been osx compatible since 5.5 (iirc) I doubt it's a hurried

details, but I use FM a lot, and keep an ear to the ground in the 
developer community, and this is a very nice piece of software.

Hard drive churning....

2004-06-28 Thread Erik Ness
Greetings,
I've got a dual USB  iBook and have just begun using OSX in earnest. 
Of late the hard drive seems to be quite active for 15 or 20 minutes, 
even though I'm not using it, and indeed no programs are even open. 
Is this OSX maintenance, or early warning of HD failure? FWIW, it's a 
20gb drive, and it's about 85% full.

Cheers,
Erik

File synch in OSX?

2004-03-29 Thread Erik Ness
Greetings,

New to the list, with what is probably an common problem for X migrators.

I run two systems -- a Cube and an iBook and am preparing for the 
final ascent into the land of X.  I like to keep the two running more 
or less identically, but I sense that with the more stringent control 
of users and permissions in X this will be a little more challenging 
than just using File Synchronization. Any suggestions vis a vis 
strategies or software?
