6.3:
mis.addn/mac.finder/not searching:
. finder isn't finding anything?
forum suggests using the magnifying glass on the menu bar,
(spotlight); but even that wasn't much help
until I had some distinctive codes to give it:
magnesium was just confusion,
but aq.cook bac
-- that found every file was looking for!
proj.addn/mac.vmware.xuw/make a lubuntu vmware,
[@] addn/xud
proj.addn/mac.transmission/cln torrent:
. find pup'linux dpc: 0? delete from torrent client
(it appears to be doing nothing but clutter),

6.6:
proj.addn/mac/zip encrypted:
. I installed the unarchiver,
the default unzipper will not respond correctly to
encrypted zip's;
but with the unarchiver I have added
opening with that will
ask for a needed password
and use it to open the file .
. not sure how to set passwords from mac,
but I did it through mac.vmware.vista.7zip .

sci.addn/mac.chrome.sidewiki/activation illusive:
. how does sidewiki get activated?
go to sidwiki help,
press a [add your entry].button;
and they ask you to sign in,
now its a separate window .
http://www.google.com/support/toolbar/bin/answer.py?answer=9230&src=top5&lev=answer
. finally got it to work:
once you have a page where you want to see it,
there's a [>>].button on the upper-right.corner
that has a menu that includes a sidewiki activator
for the current page;
if you had some text selected,
it will have your comment attempt started for you .

proj.addn/mac.vmware.xu/special drive access:
. what can vmware.xu10 do in the way of
formatting drives?

mis.addn/mac.vmware/rollbacks vs revert confusion:
. the rollbacks are confusing,
the only thing that looks like an actual
[revert to snapshot] that I recognize as my snapshot,

to see a list of named snap shots, and choose from them .
. the diff was explained here .

and, I could hear the drive still whirring;
so, I did a hard reset, and everything was fine .
