Re: Printing to Windows printservice
I've got Windows Printer via SAMBA under my devices listing when I go to advanced... However, I also have GimpPrint and Ghostscript installed. ( http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/MacOSX.php3 ) I don't recall what selections I had prior to installing them, but could that be it? BTW - These two pieces of software rock. I use them to print to an HP LJ6 (PCL only) shared on a Win2K box via LPR. I love OS X. =) On Wednesday, February 19, 2003, at 03:11 PM, (G-Books) wrote: -- Date: Wed, 19 Feb 2003 16:51:47 -0500 Subject: Re: Printing to Windows printservice From: Laurent Daudelin [EMAIL PROTECTED] Message-ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] In-Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I'm using 10.2.4 and the only option I have is Advanced when Option-Click the Add... button.

Pismo OS X.2/9.2.2 boot problem
Okay, here's the deal... for some reason my Pismo has decided that it doesn't want to boot into OS 9.2.2 any more. The machine is configured thusly: 400MhZ G3 384 MB RAM (256 lower + 128 upper) 25GB IBM HD, partitioned into 4 partitions. OS X.2 installed on one partition. 9.2.2 on another. I don't use 9.2.2 very much, so the other day I go to boot into it for some work stuff and it keeps locking up during the extension load. I track the problem down to the Open Transport extension. So I copy the Open Transport extension from another machine (an iMac, probably a stupid idea, but I didn't have any other choices at this point) and drop it into place to try to fix the boot problem. The machine boots fine, but Appletalk refuses to start up. Okay, so I decide to run the 9.2.1 update to revert all the OT extensions to earlier versions, then re-update to 9.2.2. The 9.2.1 update freezes half way through installation, upon reboot the Powerbook refuses to acknowledge that the 9.2.2 partition is bootable. I can select it in the Start Up disk control panel in OS X.2 and when booted off a CD, but it doesn't show up as a choice when the option key is held on bootup. Some last tidbits, I was able to run the 9.2.1 update and the 9.2.2 update on the partition when booted off a CD... but am still unable to boot off the 9.2.2 partition. In OS X.2, classic mode works just peachy. I ran Norton Disk Doctor and Tech Tool Pro on the disk, fixed some minor problems and was still unable to boot into 9.2.2. Any ideas?

Re: OS X nested Preference problems
Sorry, I'm in digest mode so if someone's already posted this fix, I didn't see it. I was browsing around the Mac Web for an unrelated problem when I found a website that mentioned rebuilding the desktop in OS X. The actual link for it is: http://macsupport.about.com/library/weekly/aa062501a.htm Basically, go to your home directory, then the Library folder, then the Preferences folder. In there should be 3 files, LSSchemes, LSClaimedTypes and LSApplications. I just trashed them and rebooted the computer and magically all the submenus started working again. Of course, I don't know what else I managed to reset in the process, so... =) None that I'm aware of. Your problem sounds strange. I've never heard of such problem. I would imagine that somehow the preference panes file types have been somehow corrupted. Preference panes appear as System Preferences documents. Somehow, they're not seen anymore by the system as being those documents. If you do an Info on a preference pane in /System/Library/PreferencePanes, does the system report them as Mac OS X Preference Pane? -Laurent. __ Do You Yahoo!? Sign up for SBC Yahoo!

OS X nested Preference problems
This is a smidge off topic, but I'm having the problem on a Pismo 400 so maybe one of you folks can help me. I recently re-partitioned and re-installed OS X on my laptop. I started from 10.0.3, upgraded to 10.1 then did the slew of OS and security updates to get it fully up to date. Reinstalled my various software packages... etc... then I noticed something peculiar... From the Apple Menu I am no longer able to launch the dock or network preferences from their nested locations in the dock and location sub menus, respectively. The System Preferences option under the Apple Menu works fine though. I also noticed that this inability to be launched also affected the Displays menu bar icon, I'm no longer able to launch the associated preference pane from it. All of the other controls and whatnot work just fine, I just can't get into their System Preferences without manually opening them. I ran the usual litany of utilities, the latest versions of Norton, DiskWarrior, TechTool, etc... booted into single user mode and ran fsck, nothing out of the ordinary and no fix to the problem. On a whim, I tried out the haxie Fruit Menu, but that didn't restore functionality either. Is there some sort of file or preference that controls the apple and display menus? thanks in advance for any help. =) __ Do You Yahoo!? Sign up for SBC Yahoo!
