Mac OSX 10.4.7 is out!

Safari complained about two plugins I use not being compatible. I've upgraded one of them (Saft) and am still waiting on the other (PithHelmet). You could try uninstalling any you might be using?

Other than that it all went on very nicely.

My K700i synchronises again now, which is nice... is there V3X compatibility built-in, as I'm currently using a plug-in...?

Other than that, no obvious ups or downs...

Shit - this is now looking bad. I downloaded the 'combo' as suggested and everytime I try and install it errors towards the end. Now NOTHING launches on the laptop due to a 'shared library error'.

Just as that happened a client rang wanting a file from my laptop. She's sent the email of who needs it to entourage and I can't get it because of the 'shared library error'.

Ouch, I feel your annoyance. My last Software Update almost trashed my Powerbook. Had to re-install the update from another Mac and in Firewire disk mode. Did you go through 'Software Update' or download the big file from Apple's website? Did you match the checksums?

Okay I 'think' I've got somewhere.

I downloaded the small updater again from Apples site. This installed okay but didn't fix any of the problems. I then re-downloaded and installed the combo update from Apples site - this time no errors and everything seems to be working.

Fuck, that was close and came at the most inappropriate time....but hopefully all is well.

Why do you all feel the need to post your splash screen?

honest. i believe you if you just tell me you have upgraded.

Is it some sort of macwankery code or something?

Just be glad we're not posting the results of 'More Info...' with all the arrows clicked to display the specs of our lovely computers in all their gory detail. Believe me, we *all* want to. I think most of it is a little bit of pride of ownership which isn't such a bad thing. I still love my old Powerbook to death, it's been like a faithful dog. More splash screens will be posted tonight in a fit of community gayness.

Remember, we're all Steve's bitches. All of us. It's sad and wonderful.

It's a yakyak meme, you wouldn't like it.

Updated 3 machines today, all but one came back up without problems, the only one that was squiffy was the powerbook which for some unknown reason decided it needed a second reboot before it would play.

More of a pain was the old frankenmac linux box getting stiction on its boot drive and refusing to power up this morning after being powered down last night for the first time in 9 months due to massive storms. Bastarding thing. Still, I finally managed to get it up[1], recover yesterday's svn commits (the rest all safely backed up to tape) and moved the repositories all over to the netra. Another one for the cupboard of old tech, methinks.
