comment How to disable auto load of applications on restart over OS X Lion?
You mean the "Reopen windows when logging back in" in the prompt that shows up when restarting right?

comment Is it possible to quickly set all spaces to the same wallpaper?
I think your best best is manually change them. The only thing I can think of is to modify com.apple.desktop.plist, which stores the background information (User/Library/Preferences). As far as I know no one has written an application to do this.

comment sudo chown fails with operation not permitted
@Tom a helper tool is OS X's way of giving an application elevated privileges while maintaining privileges - so if an app wants to modify a secure file, for instance, it tells the (authorized) helper tool to modify the file for it. I'm guessing ericgorr wants to avoid elevating his/her application or something to avoid the rigorous debugging that comes with that.

comment MacBook Air won't boot into OS X after Windows 7 was installed via Boot Camp
In windows you use the boot camp control panel to switch startup disks (OS X or Windows). The same preference can be changed in system preferences.
