Hi All, I'm have a lot of speech files that are given from an organisation that has a lot of audio tapes with talks on them. Many people use these tapes, and I have started to convert to the audio to mp3. More recently I've started using speex, but the problem is, many people are using macintosh's and I don't know how to play speex files on macintosh, (Linux, & Windows

I have been searching through the docs and on the web to no avail. I work at a university and we are moving our fileservers to new hardware. The problem is, nothing seems to integrate Mac's and Win box's happily. We have a large user base using samba already, but when mac's pick up the same share via CAP, CAP creates files to deal with the dual 'stream' nature of files from a

Full_Name: Chris Yager Version: rm162 OS: Mac OS 9.2.2 Submission from: (NULL) (67.117.145.197) As a new user I was running A sample session from Appendix A of An Introduction to R. 'mm<-read.table("morley.tab")' failed. Note that the prior command, 'file.show("morley.tab")', succeeded. Problem does NOT occur in version rm161. NO other bug

Hi all, We're having trouble with Macintosh clients (at least) being disconnected from Samba. Below is one macintosh console output when this happens, filtered by "smb". (Yeah, maybe some clues are missing...) ATM I don't see anything that stands out in the Samba log file. However one thing I don't see in the samba log file is session disconnects. Does anyone

Hello, Anyone out there running a production network supporting PC and Macintosh clients using samba and netatalk. we are currently using NT 4.0 with AppleTalk-IP software. Sharing the same files with the Macs and the pc is a must. I read someplace that samba 2.2.2 supports Appletalk. Is this true? Thanks, Joe

I want to backup from a windows machine to a Macintosh. All of the guides that I've seen describe the other direction. Worse, they all seem slightly different, or inconsistent. The first thing that I'd want to do should be simple: an rsync -az --delete of the entire drive, to back up all of the files. But that's not everything on the windows machine. And this is what I have not seen

Anytime a PC on our network copies a file to our server and a macintosh client goes to view that file, the type and creator codes are incorrect. We are running Samba for Windows clients and Xinet KA-Share for Mac clients. I think it has something to do with the resource forks. I can copy a file to the server from a Mac then copy the file from the server to a windows machine and back again

I am a Windows user and trying to make life easier for my Mac-using students. After investigating the Mac situation more, it appears that the key to easy use is having precompiled binaries. However the packages I am interested in (Rcmdr and its required package, car) do not have one. I do not have easy access to a Mac, so I have a plea to Macintosh users: could someone please create them if it is

Hi. For anyone who doesn't know me, I'm a Macintosh developer. Right now, I'm at the MacHack conference (which runs from Wednesday to Sunday). Before I left, I grabbed the Vorbis sources out of CVS. Yesterday I got the library and a couple of examples building in CodeWarrior and verified that they worked. I'm going to try to get a QuickTime CODEC built, but I'm not

In order to compile the latest Vorbis library on the Macintosh, the change appended to this message needs to be made to os_types.h.in. Then, anyone who wants to actually build it must first copy os_types.h.in to os_types.h by hand, since MacOS does not include a command line and thus cannot run configure. It really bugs me that the whole "platforms which don't support configure

Is there any reason the Macintosh version of R is not available on CRAN? I downloaded a copy of 0.64 from Ross Ihaka's ftp site and it seems stable.

Some use Dave (http://www.thursby.com/products/dave.html) or DoubleTalk (http://www.connectix.com/products/dt.html). However, we use Netatalk (http://netatalk.sourceforge.net/) successfully to share the Unix/Samba file system with our Mac clients. Is there any reason you can't use Netatalk?

Hi everybody I was trying the R binary (1.7.0) for Macintosh (Carbon) and I tried to install some packages using "install.packages" and apparently this function was not implemented. I reloaded the base library since the "update.packages" function should be on it but did not work. Also I tried read.table and did not work either. Does anybody know if the base package

I just upgraded my version of R from 2.8.1 to 2.9.0. After doing so, I now have problems using the package installer to reinstall all my packages. Some download and install without problems, but for others, I get the spinning pinwheel and after even 10 minutes, nothing is downloaded. R stops responding. At first, I had not deleted the old version of 2.8.1 before installing 2.9.0. However, I

Is there any way to use samba (on linux) with macintosh as client?

R has very good GUI packages that I have used - R Commander RCmdr and Rattle rattle . Since I work on multiple packages with constraints of time, I almost always use the GUI rather go through the intricacies of command line . The log of these GUIs shows the relevant R command that was used, so you can actually learn the language also. I have written about the ease of learning R , if you begin

I have a basic question, being new to EXT3. What are the pros and cons of using an external journal? Also, for a Terabyte-sized system, what should I use as the external journal's size? is there a general rule-of-thumb to follow when choosing the external journal's size? I know these are very basic questions, if they have been already answered in some FAQ, please let me know. Any
