I was trying to install netatalk-2.0.3 so I could use AFP on my Ubuntu box with Mac OS X Tiger. Unfortunately, I was getting this error message.
The steps for getting netatalk:
mkdir -p ~/src/netatalk
cd ~/src/netatalk
sudo aptitude install devscripts cracklib2-dev dpkg-dev libssl-dev
apt-get source netatalk
sudo apt-get build-dep netatalk
cd netatalk-2.0.3
DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=ssl sudo dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc
sudo debi
What wasn’t working:
:~/src/netatalk$ apt-get source [...]

KeyFixer did the trick wonderfully for me.

In GarageBand, you can select the Input Source to be Mono 1, Mono 2, or Stereo 1/2. Here’s a good reference on mono vs. stereo.
Someone needs to write an article like this one but update it for iLife ‘08.

My first thought, when I saw this effect, was that it had something to do with “burning”, as in fire.
I couldn’t have been more wrong.
The Ken Burns Effect is found in Apple’s iMovie ‘08, part of the iLife ‘08 suite included with every new Mac.
It’s the popular and now well-known effect of panning and zooming [...]

I found a way to immediately put the display to sleep. It’s this program, and it’s available both as a stand-alone app and as a widget.
I only wish it would work with Hot Corners!

If you have a new Mac with Firefox– or any other browser, for that matter– you might notice that the tab order is broken. Some form fields, like buttons, are skipped when pressing “tab” to go to the next form field. This includes the “Login” button for most login forms, and certainly the “Submit” button [...]

Switching between Windows and Mac is much harder than I thought. For starters, there’s no one-click “move” between different drives– say, from an external USB drive to the local hard drive.
And there’s no way to delete an alias with the keyboard, at least that I could find. Command+Delete didn’t do anything, but I could drag [...]

First, pick up PSFTP (an SFTP client, i.e. general file transfer sessions much like FTP) from here.
Note the following:

6.2.7 The cd and pwd commands: changing the remote working directory
PSFTP maintains a notion of your ‘working directory’ on the server. This is the default directory that other commands will operate on. For [...]

I’m not the only one who thinks this.
The mouse in OS X just feels really sticky. When moving it small distances, it doesn’t move nearly enough. When moving large distances, it moves way too fast. It’s just incredibly annoying.
I tried iMouseFix, which looked really promising, but the problem remains. I’m constantly having to move the [...]

What is a challenge/response spam filter?
When an incoming email arrives in your inbox, the spam filtering service hides it from you. It sends an automatic reply to the “From” address of the email, requesting that they respond to verify that the email sent was not spam.
If the email is spam, the “From” address is likely [...]
