I recently installed NetBSD on an old LC III I had lying around (amazing
how much faster that thing is when it doesn't have to keep drawing
pictures), and only two things are truly driving me bonkers right now:
1) Black text + white screen = big headache. Is there a way to switch to
a more standard white/grey text on black screen?
2) Instead of networking, I have net-sort-of-working. I have a modem on a
Linux PC which is configured to be my gateway to the world. If I put a
nameserver entry into my /etc/resolv.conf, then the Mac loses its ability
to address the machines on my home LAN by name...but if I take the
nameserver entry out, then I have to address other machines by IP address.
Is there something I'm missing that would let me have my cake and eat it,
too?
Jim
