Change system appearance and behavior, or get help |

the non-judgmental, mystical coaching, can be annoying, also. "The application "" has occurred" message is standard OS 9 lunacy. (never mind the OS 8 MacCheck "system: FROTZ" message!!) It gives me no options, if the machine ran an "application" without asking. Going off a cliff while the machine judges your (collective) appearance and behavior - at least _you're still in the driver's seat! MAYBE. "Change system appearance and behavior, or get help" That's great! I bet somebody got a raise, for re-stating it, that way. - Doug .:. http://users.bestweb.net/~catch22/MISC/Bob_Dylan-Its_All_Good.mp3
Well, in this case, it's Ubuntu Linux. "Jaunty Jackalope" was too much for this gadget, so I retreated backward a release. It'll be fixed in a future release, perhaps Masturbating Moose or Nauseated Nightingale.
On the other hand, I'm posting this via VPN from the desktop Mac Mini, even though I'm TYPING it on the netbook. | |
