Did you find this online or is it based on installer discs?

I found this online, author who made it a bit hacked for later macs. This is preinstalled OS image, which installs with disk utility to any hard disk on a mac.

Can you give me a link to it in a PM? I'm wondering if it could help fix some of the issues I've been having.

Alternatively, I'd start with the restore discs for the 2007 iMac containing 10.4.10 as well as newer drivers that 10.4.7 Server lacks and update that to 10.4.11 before trying to get things working on a 2008 iMac.

Added GLTerminal 0.9.2.
It's a ... terminal emulator that can mimic old CRT terminal screen. A bit like Cathode or Cool-Retro-Term for intel mac. Note the thing doesn't seems to save the prefs correctly tho...

But still fun.

That is insanely cool.

But what's up with the application icon?

You mean the anime stuff ? It's only the Tiger version that has it, the Leo version has a more "Terminal" icon :)
Dunno why ...

Posted the two on the Garden btw. Thought it's worth saving.

As long as you leave the "Flicker" option in the rendered options to zero, it seems to be ok for the GPU.
There are not that many dynamic graphics GL options as in Cathode. The big problem being the broken pref saving... :/
But note you can make it fullscreen too :)

That Shapeshifter theme is Gershwix2.5 .

Can anyone point me to the final version of TenfourFox that runs on Tiger.
I've been looking all morning and so far everything I've tried can not be run on Tiger.
I'm endeavoring to resurrect a G4 iMac I came across here locally.

That sounds strange!
As far as i know the developer of TenFourFox uses Tiger on his G5 so it should work.
Isn't it called TenFOURFox specially for the Tiger support?

SOLVED:
Seems the problem was with my clean install which was version 10.4.6.
Once I updated to 10.4.11, suddenly TenfourFox is now happy.
Now I can start fine tuning it a bit.:D

Thanks guys! That's a great collection of Tiger-stuff in one place and a lot of stuff, I did not know before.
Knowing some basics, it's easy to ramble on through the long list, but it would be helpful, if there was a short description behind every application, like

SuperDuper! (clones harddrive)
DEVONThink (searchable document/PDF archive with OCR-function for paperless-office etc.)


I' would also like to chime in to add short explantions, but I don't dare to start with it without general approval.

I'm all for that as long as they're short and don't "clutter up" the thread. :)

Added MacGizmo (a Quicklook-like utility for Tiger, shareware) and RapidOStart (a Launchpad-like utility, freeware). The latter is linked from my server since the website that originally carried it no longer exists and archive.org wasn't kind to it. I was made aware of these apps by @zappaesque (where ever he is these days) while working on the Tiger Sierra theme.
