Dock Skinning, Dialup In X, and the Terminal

Posted:
in Genius Bar edited January 2014
First of all, does anyone know any good resources on ways to replace the border/deviderline and bg to the dock?



Secondly, my dailup connectivity in X seems to be corrupting as of late. The comp stays connected to the internet but it just hangs whenever I try to connect to something, forcing me to reconnect. This happens often when I leave the comp alone.



Lastly, my Term takes longer and longer to launch every time I open it. Mac Janitor isn't helping, and this last time it actually quit bouncing (much like a classic app waiting for classic to start) before it loaded. When it does load I also get something like "login: setgroups permision denied" or something similar. Any help?

    You know, my Terminal takes nearly a minute to load now, and I have no idea why. Dual 450 G4, the thing loads quicker on my 266 iMac...



    Someone mentioned that creating a new user account and moving everything from your old one to the new one significantly speeds things up. I don't want to have to create a new account every six months though...
