Mac OS X 'Leopard'-related Discussion

[crazzyyfool]

well well, I wonder what that is...a tablet laptop?

No. It's the icon for Screen Sharing. ;)

Anyone else having a blast with Alex? I make him read my email now and mess with him through Terminal. (use the command 'say' and then whatever words after that)

Is it just me, or does Alex sound kind of like Anderson Cooper?

Modding the dock is fun :laugh:

You can change it (Y)

I've got a dock mod coming that I think most of you will like. Just be patient.

I can do the images, but does anyone know how to write a program that will mod the dock, instead of getting the user to do it manually? We might be able to work something out and have the first dock mod program out there ;)

I like how the blue-screening of Leopard has made Neowin's Front Page but the actual release of Leopard itself didn't. Typical Neowin. :rolleyes:

You're probably looking as something as simple as a Shell script run by applescript or Automater

Pack it up with a shell script that does the copying and stuff. :)

Package Maker in the Developer Tools should do the trick.

Sure! I took the instructions from a page or two ago, rewrote them, and put them inside. I also included the originals just in case. ;)

Here's the link. Have fun!

I don't know what happened to my dock I swapped its position from left to bottom and i'm left with this.

[KeR]

I just notice one thing, videos when minimized to the dock aren't animated like they used to be...or is it just something I did?

Were you using the 2D dock on the side?

[giga Veteran]

Doesn't do it on mine either--they probably disabled it. Waste of system resources if you ask me.

[NetGX]

Yeah I was using just the standard 2D dock on the side..

I think it might be because of the reflection.

[furby]

I just tried to reproduce your bug, no dice. What exactly did you do, and do you have logs?

Sorry for being nosy :p

Not sure if this is the right thing but...2007_10_28_130904.panic.zip

Other than that so happy my mac does Dolby Digital 5.1 from DVDs! Thankyou Apple I have been waiting ages for this :)

This is probably going to seem random but... have you ever set up a Wiimote with your computer?

My Macbook Pro started kernel panicking when I would have a Wiimote on near it because I had set it up at one point to play with, and it looks like you have the same model.

Nope, at the time I had clicked on Browse Device, Chose a device that came up as "The device name" and description Portable. Clicked on it, took a little while to so I quit it, few seconds later panic screen comes up. I think it was my flatmates HP Laptop. Seems to be such a rare occurence on Macs I'd just never seen it before.

Load up Doom 3 in XP and then in Vista and use a application to monitor CPU outputs, nuf said. XP has been modified to use Dual Core but it dosnt do it to the full potential. The Windows Server 2003 core (vista) has always had dualcore from the get go. Hence most people have better framerates in games after moving to Vista (providing they're not using Cheep DDR RAM)

why do you talk so much crap, honestly.... cheap DDR RAM has nothing to do with it!! at all.... though the dual core has been taken advantage of more in Vista than XP.

theres loads of modding of the dock going on ... doesn't anyone like it how it is?? :santa: ..

This is hardly the place to start a hardware discussion, DDR RAM does make a difference, otherwise why the hell did we bother creating DDR2 RAM in the first place. All my games on 5000+ and higher machines run faster on Vista than on XP, FACT!

Regardless, this is a Mac OS X thread and Mac OS X is better then Windows XP and Vista combined, and that too is, FACT
