Darwinports installation help and one more question

(other Q is at the bottom)
the installation worked, but my problem is that the documentation on the Darwinports website tells you how to install from source. So I proceeded to the next section where it describes how to search and install software ports. My problem is, I'm sure I have to do more to Darwinports because there are commands they talk about using, like 'port', which don't exist yet.
My two guesses:
I have more to configure or
I have to configure $PATH (but I dont know what I should add to the $PATH string because they dont mention what to do if you're installing via binaries on the website)
I decided to just try to run ./configure for a program which is able to run off Darwinports. The configure told me my CURL was too old so I downloaded a newer version, which gave me this error:
C++ preprocessor "/lib/cpp" fails sanity check
I'm baffled. I have NO idea what's going on and could not find a solution when searching that error.
FYI: I have the developer tools installed (xcode, gcc etc)

Haven't compiled anything until this attempt.
XCode is installed
I can't remember what version of Panther I initially installed but I do know it was definitely Panther and it was installed over a year ago.
Here is the error. I did a search for 'lib/cpp' in the text and there were several results, all of which are contained in this pasted text (hence I'm not sure if anything important is cut off but if so I can always upload the log to my ISP's webspace if someone would be REALLY kind and look at it)

  • 2.0Ghz Core Duo MBP: Is it Leapord Ready? And one more question too.

    Well, just as I said in the subject, I've got a year old MBP, and was really curious as to whether it can weather (pun intended?) Leopard. And what about 64-bit applications?
    My other question is that I was once told that inorder to get the full functionality of the Core Duo processor, you had to have matching sticks of RAM installed, ie 2x512mb or 2x1GB. Is this true? I'm thinking that it's probably worth spending the $50 to just get another 1GB stick, but I just can't seem to find the answer to this question.
    Thanks!

    Your MBP will run Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard just fine.
    As for 64-bit applications, you will find that most application developers will release them as a single version so it will automatically use the rght binaries for your MBP. There will be the odd application that will be 64-bit only however those will be very specialised and not for general use.
    For maximum performance the SODIMMs should be matched however the difference you will actually get will be minimal. Realistically you should have 2GB (2 x 1GB) installed anyway to get the most out of your MBP.

    Your question has been answered.  Jailbreaking cannot be discussed here.  If you buy a phone locked to a carrier, it would be down to them to unlock it, and that's very unlikely if you've only just got the phone.  Locked phones are "cheap" for a reason - you're signing up for a contract and that subsidises the cost of the phone.

  • One more question about "snap to" points in audio objects

    sorry, one more question people.............. is there a way to set a "snap to" point in an audio region? Can I have logic set a point, or an "anchor" within an audio region that would coincide with the cursor. Once I get the cursor to a bar or a beat, is there a command that would allow a "snap to" point to be created in an audio object? That way I could clean up any "noise" or "chatter" at the beginning of an audio bounce or any audio object, and still have no problem pasting it all over my arrangement. I'm sure it's in here somewhere, but can't find it in the manual..
    thanks again!!!

    The anchor point in an audio region can be moved to wherever you want it to be. Let's say you recorded a loud piano bass note and afterwards you trimmed the file so that the attack of this sound happens right at the beginning of the audio region. Your anchor point will now coincide with the begnning of that region. This means that you can place that audio at, say, bar 37 and it's guaranteed that the attack of that sound will play exactly at bar 37. In this case anchor point = position of audio region in the Arrange Window.
    Even though you haven't played a MIDI note into the song in order to place this audio region, an "event" is generated for this sound which can be viewed in a special version of the Event Editor which shows the position of all audio regions in the arrangement. Access this by simply clicking on a blank area of the Arrange window and then opening the Event Editor.
    So let's say this sound is positioned at bar 37. Open the Event Editor (as described above) and you'll see an event at 37 1 1 1 and the name of that audio region to its right. In this case, the event's position = the start of the sound file = the position of the anchor within that sound file. If you changed the position of that event to 38, or 109, or 3, that audio region will be "triggered" at any of those positions. That sound will always "attack" on a downbeat.
    Now let's say you reversed that pinao note in order to create a dramatic swell into a section of your song. (Open the sample editor and use the Reverse function). At this point, the anchor point is still positioned at the beginning of the file! Play back the sequence (from our bar 37) and the audio will play back from bar 37, only backwards this time; the peak of that piano note will be at some point later than 37.
    So let's say you wanted to position this sound so that it hits exactly on the downbeat of bar 37. How do you do it? Well, you could always slide the audio file in the Arrange Window and try to line up the attack of the audio waveform with the downbeat of bar 37, but there's an easier way...
    Open the sample editor and move the anchor point to the end of the file, coinciding with the peak of the waveform (the piano's attack is now at the end because we reversed the audio). Next, close the sample editor window, click on a blank area in the Arrange Window and open the Event Editor. You'll see that this audio region is still positioned at bar 37, but the actual beginning of the sound file now starts before bar 37. Now when you play back, Logic will start playing that sound file before bar 37, but the audio's peak will be lined up at bar 37.

  • Can I load Microsoft Office Word 2011 for MAC on an IPAD 2?  If yes, then how?  I have the software and one more load opportunity left.

    Can I load Microsoft Office Word 2011 for MAC on an IPAD 2?  If yes, then how?  I have the software and one more load opportunity left.
    Reason that I ask is that I'm worried that I will not be able to read or work word or excel docs that people send me.

    No. Office 2011 for Mac is coded to run with OS X. In order to work on the iPad the app must be coded for iOS instead.
    If you look in the iTunes App Store, you will find that there are many apps that allow you to work with Office files on an iPad.

  • One more question.

    Hey again. I am probably going to go get my iMactoday or tomorrow. But I have one more question. I am aware that Macs are pretty much prone to viruses. But!!! When I download a version of Windows on Bootcamp, will I still have the amazing security, or will it be viruses like owning a PC? Thank you very much!

    HI,
    *"I am aware that Macs are pretty much prone to viruses."*
    Just the opposite. Windows users are the one's vulnerable to a virus.
    You will need anti virus software on the Windows partition.

  • Need Help on one Firewall Question

    Hi All,
    I am using cisco asa in my environment and which is connected to l2. One server and one router is also connected to L2. Now i want to access port 80 on my server from outside.
    How its possible if the server gateway is routers ip and i don't want to add static route in router or server towards the firewall. Nat and access List is done on firewall. what else i can do on firewall to access port 80 of my server from outside. Dont want to change anything on router/server.
    Below is the IP detail
    1. Firewall inside 192.168.1.1 & Outside 1.1.1.1
    2. Router IP - 192.168.1.2
    3. Server IP - 192.168.1.3 & GW - 192.168.1.2

    Hi,
    Well the only ways I could think that the connections could be gotten working would be
    Policy Based Routing on the Router that would forward the web servers traffic through the firewall instead of the routers default gateway (even just the return traffic for web connections)
    Configuring NAT on the ASA firewall so that all traffic from the Internet would be NATed to an internal IP address from the network 192.168.1.0/24. This would mean that the server would be sending the traffic to ASA instead of using its default gateway. And this is ofcourse because the server would be seeing all connections coming from its connected network and wouldnt have to use the default gateway.
    You havent mentioned what type of NAT you are doing on the ASA for the server Static PAT or Static NAT. Static PAT would be forwarding a single (or several ports) only while Static NAT would be dedicating a single public IP address for the server.
    I would imagine that you would have to configure 2 separate NAT statements
    Dynamic Policy PAT for the External hosts
    This should NAT all traffic coming from the Internet to the IP address of your ASAs "inside" interface WHEN the destination is the public IP address of your Web server.
    access-list POLICY-NAT-WEBSERVER remark NAT inbound web traffic to an internal IP address
    access-list POLICY-NAT-WEBSERVER permit tcp any host 1.1.1.1 eq 80
    nat (outside) 100 access-list POLICY-NAT-WEBSERVER
    global (inside) 100 interface
    Static NAT or Static PAT for Web server
    Either of these NAT configurations should forward the connections to your Web servers public IP address on port TCP/80 to the Web server.
    Together with the above NAT configuration the return traffic from the Web server should flow back through the ASA.
    static (inside,outside) 1.1.1.1 192.168.1.3 netmask 255.255.255.255
    or
    static (inside,outside) tcp 1.1.1.1 80 192.168.1.3 80 netmask 255.255.255.255
    If you are using the public IP address on the ASA "outside" interface then replace the 1.1.1.1 with "interface". The IP address 1.1.1.1 stands for a public IP address that you might use.
    Hope this helps

  • One more question about upgrading HD

    EVeryone was really helpful last time, I have one final question:
    Does the name matter for the HD?
    I have bought my HD, used SuperDuper and am actually already working off the new HD via Firewire.
    Does it matter what I NAME the new Drive? When I used Super Duper I called it "New Startup". The current HD is called "Macintosh HD". Is this a problem?
    Thanks guys!

    @Niel: How about localized chars (ä, ß, î, etc.) and such ones that may have a special technical meaning (like /, *, -) ?

  • Nokia E6 White question and one little question

    Hi,
    I am planning on buying the Nokia E6 in white, but I am really worried about the fact whether the keypad or the cover of the memory card and USB slot will get dirty. (yellowish)
    And my second question: The Nokia E6 is provided with a leather case in some countries, but I am about to buy one E6 and I think it's not provided here in the Netherlands. I wanted to know if anyone knows the exact model number of the leather case provided in the box, so I can buy it separately. 
    Thanks!

    Hi, I have bought the white E6 from the Netherlands, and you're right - there is no case (and no memory card).
    The USB slot shouldn't get too dirty that easily since it is not white, but silver (same as the back cover).
    Haven't had the handset long enough to know if the keys get dirty.  The finish on the keys is a matt white (not glossy/shiny). 
    One downside of the white (and possibly silver) is that when you set the backlighting on the phone to a low level (to save more power), it is quite difficult to the the keys.  I have had to set the backlight to at least medium so that the light is bright enough against the white keypad.
    I must the colours offered are rather boring (white/silver/black) but presumably it is because it is sold as a business phone.

  • Installing windows 7 and one other questions about boot camp

    I have a 20 inch iMac with Mac OS 10.5.7 and all updates. I am thinking about upgrading from vista on boot camp to Windows 7. I know what to do but i wanted to hear some personal experiences from other people. Also, a long tome ago, I tried to install Windows XP but realized half way through that I did not have a product key. It turns out I did not need one, but I tried to cancel the installation process and all I would get was "Press any key to restart" and I would be sent back to the beginnign of the installation. I was trapped in a loop. For future reference, how do u "escape" this loop? Thanks

    You 'escape' by not killing it. And most people have to redo their entire install to get things working properly.

  • Macbook Pro stuck at loading screen, one more question

    I recently posted on the discussions forums about my MCP problem. Essentially, after a freeze I turned it off via the power button and then it does not turn on, stucking at the loading screen with the apple logo and the spinning wheel.
    I know that this is a widely known issue, and common solutions are to reset pram and try turning it on with through the install disk. I tried everything, but to no avail. Although I could turn it on through the install disk and run the Disk Utility program, it said that everything appears to be OK. So I was wondering if it is a hardware problem and I must get it to the apple store (which is a problem for me) and consult one of the genius members, or is reinstalling everything through the original disk might solve the problem as well?
    When I turned it on through the disk, it had no problems booting. If I back all my data up, and then make a reinstall from scratch through the disk, would it solve the freezing problem?
    I appreciate your help.

    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    Reinstall OS X.  This will not erase your hard drive.
    Given that this is widely known then before posting your question you should have searched the forums to find previously posted solutions.
