why is megatunix soo ******* complicate to install!!!!!!!! everything isn't working.....

 

so after religiously following all steps it still isn't working... maybe some one could walk me through it!

 

A little more info might be helpful. Is this megatunix for windows or linux? If it is linux, what distro?

 

It's going on a Mac with os-x on it I would pull up terminal after downloading all of the things it asked but when i ran the first line of code it said that the files were not found.....

 

You see theres your problem!.

 

yea yea.... I thought of running windows....but then there's the problem....lol no but can anyone maybe walk me through this does anyone have it running on there Mac?

 

I tried and tried and failed to get megatunix working on osx. I bought a windows laptop.

 

No, THERE is your problem . Seriously though I might be able to help you out, after all, OSX is just BSD in a pretty dress . Try running it in a terminal and post up the exact error message.

 

woooow boss in this forum your are considered the noob!!, but i'll let that go cause idc every one has their own opinion!!!! but yeah the code ill get it asap
thanks for offering

 

so after downloading all the other stuff such as darwinports, and the newest X code from apple along with having x11, it asks that I copy this and put it in terminal:

sudo port -d selfupdate
sudo port install gtkglext libglade2

and usually this comes up:

DEBUG: couldn't open "/opt/local/var/db/dports/sources/rsync.rsync.darwinports.org_dpupdate1/base/config/dp_version": no such file or directory
while executing
"open [file join $dp_base_path config/dp_version] r"
(procedure "darwinports::selfupdate" line 45)
invoked from within
"darwinports::selfupdate [array get global_options]"
Error: /opt/local/bin/port: selfupdate failed: couldn't open "/opt/local/var/db/dports/sources/rsync.rsync.darwinports.org_dpupdate1/base/config/dp_version": no such file or directory

now what wel lthis time i tried it and it did a lot more lines of stuff but altimately the same response? what do i do?

 

Hah, sorry dude, didn't mean to upset you with the noob comment, just my hatred for windows flaring up . Anywho though, how much of that path exists on your system? Is /opt/local/var/db/dports/sources/rsync.rsync.darwinports.org_dupdate1/base/config a real directory? If not, how much of that path actually exists?

 

also, try this Translated version of http://www.rufuspollock.org/2007/02/13/problems-with-selfupdate-when-updating-a-very-old-macports/

 

Try TunerStudioMS, you can get it here. I have not tried it myself in OSX, but theoretically it should work.

 

Just curious, where did you go to finishing school?

 

I don't know what finishing school is? Is that like high school? That collaberation of thoughts were horribly written. I apologize. Lol

 

I'm a Mac guy, (as a result of being a PC tech ) but from what I've read Megatune is far superior, so I'm just going to attempt to revive an old laptop or buy a netbook and run XP lite or something.

I know this doesn't help your particular problem but I'm just saying it's probably MUCH simpler and you'll probably have better luck getting help on here with the Winblows setup.

 

just use boot camp or parallel's or VMware. Works just fine.

 

If you have an Intel Mac.....

 

 

lol WTF hustler ...lmao
