    I used Evolution for a couple of years, and I'm glad Thunderbird finally has a decent calendar so I could switch. Evolution mostly had the features I wanted, but it was so slooow. It also had a hard...

    There's no way to tell. If it's Apple hardware, then the software will be genuine. What makes it infringing is whether it was installed from someone else's copy of Tiger or not. It sounds like you...

    [ubuntu] Two-finger scrolling jumps at the start

    My MacBook4,1 shows Intel GMA X3100, not Nvidia. Shouldn't all MB4,1s be the same? (Maybe you have a Pro?)

    Anyway, I see no desktop effects.

    [ubuntu] [solved] Re: brutal firefox update today

    Thanks. That gives me the option to go to 3.0~b5. I think 3.08 would be what I was running before the update. Maybe apt-get has something.

    The problem appears to be memory. Synaptic segfaulted too...

    Perfect. I just got it by md5summing the downloaded image. Time to burn some copies.

    [ubuntu] Re: IP of gateway

    Yes, clear. So:

    ping -b -c3 192.168.1.255 && sleep 5 && arp -a | grep <WGA Mac Address>

    should work. Do you know the Mac address of the WGA device?

    [ubuntu] Re: IP of gateway

    Since 192.168.1.101 worked for him, I'm guessing that what he identified as his "router" has the DHCP server, and it gave an IP address to his computer and his WGA wireless access point. Thus, he...

    chili555, I read it the same way. I would call the WGA a router, because the other device (a server?) has the gateway address.

    [ubuntu] Re: IP of gateway

    If you broadcast ping the subnet (e.g. ping -b -c3 192.168.1.255) then it will show up in your arp cache if it eventually responds (arp -a | grep 00:15:F2:FF:26:99)

    So, this works for me:
