10.5.6 is Out

mrkgoo, happens to both my mac (see sig). So it's not unique among mbp 17". Deleted the pkgs and update with software update again. Strange thing is my incomplete pkg file is also 45mb. It seems there's a EOF at the 45mb mark on the 170mb update, causing software update to think it has finished downloading.
I will post back if update is successful later.

OpenGL extension viewer reports the new version number as 1.5.36 (previously 1.5.30) and I've noticed the framerate in WOW to be more consistent in areas where it would otherwise drop significantly. I'm sure there are other increases as well, it's much smoother on my late 07 SR MB.
Interesting. Thanks for the input. Good (bad?) to know that it may be wider than we think. I have emailed many of my Mac buddies that 10.5.6 is probably safer via the combo updater.
Combo??
" iChat

I've been having that problem a lot lately glad it should be fixed now.
But what's the combo update and where do you have the option for the single or combo, I've downloaded the the update but very wary of installing with all the problems people have been posting?
190Mb on early 08 Macbook

The get ecstatic when they download properly, install properly, boot up properly, and don't break anything.
Which is RARELY.
Mine will be done downloading is >2 minutes. How long did it take for yours to start up?
LOLI didn't know I even had chess on my Mac.
Not only do you have it, but it's one of the very very VERY few Apple apps that is 64 bit code.
combo is a combination update that includes 10.5.2, .3, .4, .5 and .6
the single update is only for those with 10.5.5 already installed
took me a while to figure out too haha
Photo Booth on my MBP is a lot smoother with the update. And I mean, a LOT smoother. Speed for refreshing the image is faster too.
Update!
Combo updates worked perfectly, back up and running an all fours. Yipee! Thanks for your help everyone!

Ok so where does the option arise for me to select which version?
I'm Running 10.5.5

Are you using Time Machine on a Time Capsule or on an AEBS via AirDisk?
Someone knows if TM on AEBS still works?
Thanks

sure does
Ditto here. From the looks of this thread, I am definitely going to use the combo updater this time around. This is the first time I recall hearing so many problems with the incremental updater from within Software Update.
You have to download from the Apple Support website and as mentioned above it updates any version from 10.5.1 - 10.5.5 to the latest
