Digidesign has a FAQ somewhere that helps with that. Finding it is hard, once found, it helps a lot. There is also a utility or applescript that can help if you do the software update. Works most of the time.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
So who's using virtualization software for the Mac. I've used Parallels for the Mac, but I don't think I've used the latest version. But I've heard VMWare is really good too.

I use Parallels and I like it.

I used Parallels when it first came out. When I had my major HD crash last year (or 18 months ago...whenever), the tech guy asked did I have a dual boot machine. I said yes. He asked, had I been doing a lot of virtual machine stuff. Ya, with dual screen, it works great. He mentioned he had seen an increase in HD failures since Parallels came out. Anecdotal evidence? Actual cause/effect? I dunno. I haven't reinstalled it since. I'll do the dual boot, if I need to play in windows.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
Anyone use git? Actually, this may be more of a generic unix question. I installed git on my shared server using the instructions here. Namely,
cd ~/ test -d ~/src || mkdir ~/src cd ~/src curl -O [link] tar -xvzf git-1.6.3.1.tar.gz cd git-1.6.3.1 ./configure --prefix=$HOME make make install echo "export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin" >> ~/.bashrc
It all seemed to run fine -- no errors. But when type "git" on the shell command prompt, I get the response "git: command not found". This happens even if I'm in the bin folder where I can clearly see that there's an executable (755) file called "git". What am I missing?
