Emacs and Inconsolata-g

Hi all,
I've just installed Inconsolata-g, but I can't get Emacs to recognize it. The relevant part of my .emacs is:
(setq default-frame-alist '((font-backend . "xft")
(font . "Inconsolata\-g-9")
(cursor-color . "white")
(tool-bar-lines . 0)
(vertical-scroll-bars . nil)
(alpha . 85)))
I've already tried with two backslashes, none, four...
TIA

The above works fine for me. Depending on how Emacs is started, you may also need to include
(set-frame-font "Inconsolata-g-10" nil)
to have the font changed for the initial frame (properties for subsequent frames are defined by default-frame-alist). Also confirm that the path to inconsolata-g is in Xorg's FontPath and that the font cache has been rebuilt.

I am using a 2003 eMac and am running on Mac OSX vs 10.4.11. I amrunning iTunes 8.2.1 (6) and not able to upgrade iTunes on this computer. iTunes is not recognizing music I have purchased and when I try to connect when it request me to I get the following error message:
Cannot complete iTunes Store request. A required iTunes component is not installed (-42404)
Please help.

Is this music purchased back in DRM days? I don't actually have any iTunes music so I can't test with my iTunes 7.5, but I know that without iTunes 10 you cannot even connect to the store anymore. I wouldn't think that would require an active connection to the store all the time, otherwise how could you play music on a computer in the middle of nowhere? Did you do something to trigger iTunes suddenly wanting to connect and check on machine authorization?

I had a similar problem, with my SmartDisk 80, have you tried journaling the drive; with the Disc Utility.

2003 eMac and 23inches new Apple display compatible?

I just got a new display (23in Apple) and I would like to plug it in my eMac
which only seems to have a VGA oulet,
Does anyone know of an adaptor that could do the trick?
Couldn't see any on the Mac online store.
Thanks a million for any suggestion.
Francis

There are VGA to DVI converters, but they run about $300.00 US (you can find one such here). And your eMac doesn't support extended desktop, only mirroring, so unless you install a firmware hack (which you use strictly at your own risk), you would get the same picture at the same resolution as on your eMac's screen. Even with the hack, I'm not sure if the eMac would support the 23" LCD's resolution.
So it's up to you whether or not it's worth it. You could probably sell your eMac and combine that with the cost of the converter and buy a new Mac mini which would support that monitor directly.

Are the eMac and the G4 Mac Mini similar enough to...

use the eMac's tiger upgrade to upgrade my mini to Tiger? I know the other versions of tiger upgrades are specific to the hardware, i.e. powerbook, ibook, imac, ect. But seems to me eMac and the G4 mini are very similar. Possible?
thanks

" Are the eMac and the G4 Mac Mini similar enough to use the eMac's tiger upgrade to upgrade my mini to Tiger? "
No.
"I know the other versions of tiger upgrades are specific to the hardware"
And so are the eMac's upgrade discs.

Networking eMac and MacBook

Hi,
I have a eMac, MacBook, HP Printer *** Scanner *** Photocopier and a External Hard Drive and want to set up a network with Airport Extreme. The purpose being to be able to access my eMac HD from my MacBook and vice versa. Similarly I want to use the Pinter *** Scanner for both my eMac and MacBook and also use the external HDD for both my eMac and MacBook. I also am using wi-fi to connect to the net.
1. Is it possible to create a network?
2. If possible, how difficult is it?
3. What are the other software and hardware that is required to create this network?
Thanks and Regards,
Senthil

1. Is it possible to create a network?
The AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS) is a router so using an AEBS creates a network.
The USB port on the AEBS does NOT support scanning. The USB port supports printing and hard drives ONLY.
3. What are the other software and hardware that is required to create this network?
Connect a router like the AEBS. That is all you need.

It is an eMac. I have a corrupted font book. How can I fix/re-install/or download a new font book app? Most fonts that were in it work, some do not, but I cannot open it nor can I install fonts into it. This happened after the eMac OS was upgraded from 10.3.9 to 10.4.11 and AI was upgraded to CS2

Approving applications for emacs and intelimacs through WGM in Leopard

We are in the process of approving applications in Workgroup Manager with Leopard 10.5.2 across the board on emacs and intelimacs. We are having a problem with approving applications to work on both types of computers. For example, if we approve Firefox in Workgroup Manager, on an intelimac the applications as a user will not work on the emacs. On the other hand, if we approved the application on an emac, it will not work as a user on the intelimac. We have had success on most of the applications but not all. What are we missing? Thanks.

Hey People,
Just in case anyone is having the kind of problem I was facing a few days ago, the solution is that the client machines must be Mac os x 10.6.4 and above. After upgrading the client machines to 10.6.4, I could apply the policies, specify the kind of applications I wanted users and computers to run using WGM.
I'm not saying this is an expert solution, but it sure did work for me.
Cheers.

Emacs AND emacs-nox

I'd like to use on the same machine both emacs and emacs-nox. But they are mutually exclusive. A proximate cause is that they both give
the same name, 'emacs', to the resulting executable. I presume there are no fundamental conflicts between the X and the no-X versions
of Emacs, and I'd be perfectly happy to run emacs-nox under a different name. How can I get it my way?
The reason I want emacs-nox is that I need a just-in-time, disposable, mini-emacs, to be evoked for a brief moment in, say, the 'root' permission terminal that I keep constantly open to run a root-authority commands or touch up a system file. I used to use zile for that, but it is not 100% compatible with emacs, lacks many of the most common commands, and doesn't handle well Ctrl, Alt, Bcksp, and friends.
When looking for a small-footprint version of emacs for the Raspberry Pi, I realized that emacs-nox has a much smaller footprint not only than emacs, but also than emacs -nw, and in fact is not much bigger than zile itself. So, why use a crippled app if one can use the real thing at very
little extra cost?
What do you think? Thanks

Use TRAMP to edit files via sudo within Emacs. No need to start up a new instance.
Alternatively, use ABS to recompile it and add the --program-{prefix,suffix} option to change the name of the binary to emacs-nox or whatever.

EMac and Sony MiniDV

Hi there,
Can anyone tell me why my eMac won't find the firewire connected (either port) Sony MiniDV Handycam?
I connect it all as described (MiniDV set to playback - connected through firewire cable to eMac) and nothing...
The screen on the Handycam blinks every 3 seconds and shows the DV in signal (I actually want DV out) - but nothing else.
It all works fine if I connect it to my IBM Notebook via another cable. Am I missing a setting? Or could my cable / firewire ports be cactus?
Cheers

Do you have any other Firewire devices? To confirm the impression I got from your post, you're attempting to connect directly to the eMac, and not through a Firewire hub, right?
With nothing attached to the Firewire ports, open System Profiler (in Applications/ Utilities) and check that the Firewire bus itself shows up. If it doesn't, reset the eMac's Firewire bus triple fuses (they can be tripped and latched by momentary power glitches) by removing all peripherals other than the Apple USB keyboard and mouse, then removing the power cord from the side of the eMac (to remove the trickle current drawn by modern electronics even when nominally off) and waiting 15+ minutes. Then reattach the power cord only and start up the Mac. Check System Profiler again and confirm that the Firewire bus is recognized. Reattach peripherals (the MiniDV camera) one at a time, checking System Profiler after each to confirm the addition is recognized.
Let's not overlook the too-obvious either; check the Finder's preferences and make sure the "show these items on the desktop" boxes are checked.

Older Emac and Final Cut Express 3.5

I have a lab full of 8 older eMacs (768 MB of RAM, running 10.4.2, 700mHz, 32 MB of VRAM with a GeForce 2 MX graphics card) and want to update to FCE 3.5. Does anyone know of potential problems that I might have? I checked the tech specs and my graphic card is compatible with Quartz Extreme so theoretically it should be OK but I wonder if I will have issues...Thanks for any words of advice!
eMac Mac OS X (10.4.2)

Hi Timothy,
Your eMacs should be fine; rendering time & RT effects are the places where you would see the main differences between your 700MHz eMacs and faster ones.
My observations would be 1) 768MB is a little thin, imho, and if you could justify upgrading to 1GB RAM you will find things running better, and 2) for DV your eMacs are fine however for HDV, the FCE spec says minimum 1GHz processor and minimum 1GB RAM.

I have a eMac and i was wondering if its possible to upgrade the processor?

I have an eMac and it is very slow so I was looking at upgrading some of the parts. I know I can fit in new RAM but is it possible to get and install a new faster processor?

I vaguely remember there may have been one model that could be, but most are not upgradable, which exact eMac is it?
So we know more about it...

Problem with Internet connection sharing between eMac and Powerbook G3

Hi,
I seem to be having a slight problem with internet connection sharing.
My eMac is the main machine with the internet connection, and its running 10.4.6, the Powerbook G3 is running 10.2.8.
I can connect them all up and get online with both, but I the problem I am having is when I turn the Firewall on on the eMac, the powerbook can't connect.
Is there anyway I can keep the Firewall enabled and still use internet connection sharing?

How do I know which ports the Powerbook is using?
Also I had web sharing enabled on the eMac and it made no difference at all.
Plus I don't know if this means anything to you, trying to decipher it myself, all I can make out myself on there is port 80.

Emacs and imacs noise?

How do you compare the noise emacs and imacs make?
The only thing I don't want for my eMac is the noisy fan. And maybe I'll switch for an iMac.
Thank you

eMacs are noise pollution city.
I registered the constant noise from a old eMac 800 mhz at being 73db.
It drives you batty.
The iMac's are virtually silent, only making a slight kechunk sound when eatting and spitting cd's. You'll love it. They are quieter than most PowerMac G5's.
Problem right now is the new iMac's are intel processor based core duals, they are fast, but not a whole lot of software is ready for them natively yet, but will run at reduced performance using PPC based software under emulation (rosetta). Some games might not work either.
If you depend on Photoshop performance, Adobe might not have a native Intel version ready for another 14 months.
Coming from a eMac, the iMactel with Core Duo proccessors will seem very fast to you.

Emacs and emacs -nw with solarized look different

Hey,
I installed solarized for emacs and in my .Xdefaults (https://github.com/solarized/xresources/blob/master/solarized from here).
Emacs looks fine, but everything in my urxvt looks slightly off, compared to emacs.
Here is a screen shot between emacs -nw and emacs side by side:
http://p67.img-up.net/screenshot8025.png
The colors are kind of switched. Is there something wrong with the color scheme in my xresources?
Or do I have to to something additional to get the solarized look right in emacs -nw and urxvt?
Thanks!
EDIT:
setting:URxvt*termName: rxvt-unicode-256color
change the look of emacs -nw, but now it looks even more wrong.
Other console programms look better now.

Ok I've installed everything and put the following into the .emacs file:
(require 'org-install)
;; The following lines are always needed. Choose your own keys.
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.org\\'" . org-mode))
(global-set-key "\C-cl" 'org-store-link)
(global-set-key "\C-ca" 'org-agenda)
(global-set-key "\C-cb" 'org-iswitchb)
(global-font-lock-mode 1)
; for all buffers
;;;orgbabel;;;;
(org-babel-do-load-languages
'org-babel-load-languages
'((R . t)
The last part being the bit about babel - the business end for R. Now I don't need to install anything else? Or any other lisp's for babel? But! The .emacs file is not producing any errors now when I start emacs up.
[EDIT] Everything work's now I've installed an external - more up to date distribution of Org!
