Go into System Preferences -> Keyboard & Mouse -> Bluetooth tab. Uncheck "Allow Bluetooth devices to wake this computer"

I've been struggling with a 14TB (yes terabyte) Xsan network with anywhere from 3 to 4 million files on it. This isn't really even an extreme case, it's a high-traffic printer that is routinely dealing with hundreds of thousands of ginormious files. Anyway, files are getting corrupted, two brand-new Xserve controllers are going deaf, and just imagine even trying to use Spotlight on several million files. And Apple's enterprise-level support? HA!
I love my PowerBook, but I also love the new Sun SunFile T2000 server I just installed here too.

There was actually some audio balance bugs fixed in the 6.0.3 update to iTunes. The fix was reportedly specific to people using the Airport Express "play-through" option, but it supposedly helped other folks having similar issues.

Quartz, what issues did you have with xsan? We've had no issues with ours, however we're in video with fewer but very large files to deal with. I find 10.4.4 and xsan 1.2 to be very stable under these conditions even serving files over dmb to windows clients which was a major weakspot of earlier versions.

Two main problems. One was EOF errors with some Adobe CS2 files and the second problem was just the sheer number of files - roughly 3 to 4 million, but always constantly changing. Set-up and the initial couple of days would be terrific and then files would disappear and cvfsck would report a file system corruption error.
File searching was another story. Forget Spotlight, I ended up having to write an Automator script that would write out the contents of the drive to a FileMaker file and have people search that instead.

That's really kinda cool. I'll check it out some though I think it was a little too late. One thing I didn't mention was that there was an outside IT consultant who wanted to toss the whole works for a Windows server, so at least I convinced him to stay with *nix.
sigh

Do they even do zero copy sockets? Do they have sendfile()? Pretty sad that the only way for IIS to come close to smoking Apache at static content was for them to integrate parts of it into the kernel..

So in the processing of keeping up iTunes with my CD collection, I tried to rip Sunn O)))'s "Black One" about an hour ago. Now, my iBook won't spit the CD back out. It's little motor tries and tries and then gives up and re-loads the CD in iTunes. Fuck.
Already called AppleCare and they couldn't figure out anything. They just told me to either mail it in or take it to an Apple store. So, any tips before I make the long trek tomorrow morning? Sigh.

I know this sounds completely stupid but...
I tried to insert one of those small CDs into my iBook's drive hoping it would pull it in an read it like a normal cd by now its stuck inside. Should I bring it into the Apple Store to have it taken out or is there a much easier way for me to get it out such as tweezers or something? I really don't want to have to leave it at the store as I need it for school but I need the drive working. Thank you for any assistance!
For the record, I was not stupid enough to try putting an abnormally sized CD in the drive.
Ok oddly my father told me to hold it up, turn it sideways with the drive opening facing down and shake it once. The cd popped enough out to grab onto it and take it completely out. lWOw problem solved quickly hehe.
But this did work. I held the computer sideways and tried to eject it while shaking and it came right out. Man.
