I think I'm the only one using it... lol I never could get your GUI to work all the way. The creating a hard disk image part works great though :) Always when I press "Run this PearPC", the little green arrow to the right of the link turns red and nothing happens. I use PearGUI right now for my config files and that seems to work alright. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 eaglebtc Posted June 6, 2004 Share Posted June 6, 2004 (edited) I'm having a problem copying files from my network drive to the Mac. I'm using Panther 10.3.4 with the bridging enabled in Windows. I can surf the net on the Mac, so I know everything is configured correctly. I've shared "D:\TEMP" on the Windows box, and so in the Mac I go to "smb://192.168.0.101" to make a connection with my PC. Soon I am prompted for the username and password, then I get to choose which volume / share I would like to mount. I choose "TEMP" from the list and Macintosh happily mounts the drive on my desktop. The problem comes when I try to copy a file from the networked Windows drive to the Macintosh. I get the following error message: If I press OK, the Mac tries, albeit unsuccessfully, to reestablish contact with the PC. It cannot do this, so I am forced to disconnect the volume and remount it. I double checked my permissions on that shared folder; all Administrators have access, and the Mac is using a passworded dummy account that belongs to the Admnistrators group. This is to ensure that it has full access to the hard drive. Now, on the opposite side of the spectrum, I cannot get all the way into my shared folder on the Mac from Windows. In Windows, I can go to \\192.168.21.102 (the Mac) and Windows prompts me for a username and password. Then I see a window with two icons: a folder called "\bradleyc" (my account name) and a printers/faxes icon. I double-clicked the first icon and waited. And waited. And waited. Finally Windows gives up and says that the resource is no longer available. :angry: Edited June 6, 2004 by eaglebtc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yes you still have run it from CMD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Ryan Hoffman Posted June 6, 2004 Share Posted June 6, 2004 Tekmaven - I tried it. Works fine! It's using an outdated version of PPC though. :) You can update the PearPC version: its in the installdir\PearPC folder. :blink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 unknown Posted June 6, 2004 Share Posted June 6, 2004 well i tried the dx sdl version of pearpc and i can see much better gui speed in my opinion. although i have to set my start resolution to 0 for 640*480 to get the window seeable, and sometimes the mousedoesnt go to al the corners of the sreen. although fighting with it will work.

0 stokd Posted June 7, 2004 Share Posted June 7, 2004 (edited) I think I may be slightly retarded...how do you turn on fullscreen? :s I'm using the Richard Goodwin Athlon XP optimized nightly build. I have went back and read other pages so I don't need the "use the search button" speech :p *edit* I found on another PearPC page that the fullscreen toggle is F12, but it doesn't go fullscreen for me, it just lets me use the OS X cursor rather than the one in Windows :s Edited June 7, 2004 by eckoman2k1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
