Unplug the Processor several times and back in. Take out all RAM, and populate one single Bank. I personally had a case where the Switch-Board (Power on/off) was bad. Replacing it with a new one, solved the matter.

The express station might use MAC-adresses ( and MAC has nothing to do with McIntosh, tranlates into Machine Adress Counter or s.th. of the sort, you find them on windows too.) Therefore the router locks you out. In the system-profiler (About this MAC) under network, you find your wireless MAC-adress …
I bet that it is not flashing randomly, but 3 times followed by a pause, three times again. Or two times for that matter, the flashing light are error indicators. 3 times means, no valid ram detected. Should that be ( and most often is ) the case, take out …

why should you need special software, when connecting via a browser to a server. remote desktop allows you to operate the romote computer.
deleting certain zero-bytes files can kick you out of your system. root is the master mind that is allowed to do anything, by the way.
yes they are. download yourself "anacron", a faceless app that automates the daily/weekly etc. and runs in idle time.
flip for mac. codecs are in library/quicktime or home/lib/QT. and without flip4mac you have no wma.
which java? and java prefs in utilities.
try cocktail on your alu-book. optimize your network on the slow mac. erase your caches. cookies etc.
the computer not easily let go of a working internet connection. when changing the e-net ports, restart is mendatory. unplugging build in e-net cable as well. to use airport you need to have en1 in net-pref-pane.
by doing what? there should be no need, to do what you´re attempting to.
very good that your time is so very limited. fink can only install in root mode. when it changes netinfo, its of no concern when you trash sw. you also have to add the path in bashrc or whatever shell you use. export PATH="/bin:/sbin:/sw:/sw/bin:/sw/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/lib:/usr/local/man:/usr/local/share:/usr/local/include:" declare -x PATH="/bin:/sbin:/sw:/sw/bin://sw/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/lib:/usr/local/man/:/usr/local/share:/usr/local/include:" declare -x MANPATH="/usr/share/man:/sw/share/man:/usr/local/man/:"
right, but not quite. linux software has to be in source code, to compile it into BSD on the fly. Hey try FINK. and for these all to work you have to install the developer tools that came with your original OSX.
get yourself a router. it has a hardware firewall to the outside, and you can do what you like on the inside.
cocktail utility allows you to change system startup. i.e. single user (the mode you´re in right now).

external raids have to have a dedicated controller. when setup before as a software raid, all your data is gone.
use disc-warrior to rebuild b-tree. ( you have to mount from a different volume, than the one you are working on)
[QUOTE=MacTecTom]No one likes to admit this, but I beleive that since OSX is unix based, there ARE viruses out there now. A friend of mine was doing alot of downloading with file sharing software, and all of a sudden, no menu bar and no finder. Well, REINSTALL was the only …
activate your root account (start with OSX-install Disc/changing passwords) restart regularily, switch user to root. having done so, every volume will be visible. on the dvd do an æ-I. change priviledges to allow everything. log out to your regular account. Your DVD is back/mounted.
The End.
