Tech support for someone is a pain at best, but usually with a Mac is it not that bad.
But it seems if you go in to display settings and say you want stuff large, it basically scales the whole screen. This has some nasty effects - popups come up too big and off bottom of screen so you cannot click. And then some apps just don't play (NX witness had no playback controls). Took me ages to work it out, change back to normal, and up font and menu sizes instead.
Arg.
Then, to my surprise, it seems like rosetta2 was not pre-installed, I had to do a command line to install it. This meant that nx-witness simply did not run - no error message, no clue, just nothing. That is, shall I say, sloppy, of apple IMHO - (a) why not offer to install it, and (b) why not say what is wrong, FFS.
Now, an ARM stable release of inkscape keeps crashing, which is also a pain, and again no clue why.
But getting there.
@revk If it makes you feel any better, I'm currently giving Apple support a bit of a hard time... They're unable to explain why I can't seemlessly pass my IPv6 from ethernet to wifi and back when docking and undocking.
@G5DSG I'm assuming a manually set IPv6? Otherwise if it is SLAAC it is based on the MAC which would be changing (and then privacy addressing as well).
Then you need to tell the switch you have the multicast MAC for your IPv6 for ND (is that IGMP?).
@revk My (possibly naive) thinking was that the same static IPv6 on both interfaces should work just as it does with IPv4. However the instant I bring the 2nd interface, 2 DAD errors pop up and it disables IPv6 on both the interfaces. Isn't this just MacOS getting it wrong internally? Ideally it would recognise the 'duplicate' was local and therefore harmless?
@G5DSG well I guess it sees it with a different MAC, but should be able to see it is one of its MACs.
@revk Okay, good to have that confirmed :). After about an hour with tech support they raised a ticket with engineering who will hopefully have someone with more IPv6 knowledge take a look. They repeatedly tried to refer me to my ISP which I guess I can now say I've done...
