just yesterday I had a usb related freakout with my Griffin Powerwave -- Hope this helps and it never happens again.
Got a tip for us?

I won't be installing it, either. I have had a lot of problems resulting from system updates over the past two months. I downgraded my version of Jag and things got much better. Now I fear updates, instead of looking forward to them.
Also, when the hell is Apple going to release some bug fixes for Core MIDI and Core Audio? Am I the only one who thinks it's foolish to leave the pro audio market with a half-finished solution?

I think this update was so minor it should've been called 10.2.5.1
haha
I don't think it's going to do anything to help me, but I'm still downloading it nevertheless

T610
I don't know about you guys, but I'm pretty psyched about the upcoming T610: http://www.sonyericsson.com/t610/
with that and SEC (Sony Ericsson Clicker) - you've got a sweet bluetooth system.
Not sure when it's coming out though. I think I read that it will be called T616 in North America (due to different GSM Bands) and will be out Q2 2003 aka anytime now. I was going to get the T68i through that amazon deal where you got the free phone with a 1 year T-mobile service, but I wasn't impressed with the mixed reviews of the phone. When I heard about the T610, I figured I'd wait. The guy that developed SEC seems psyched about the phone too:

Re: yay
Well, if we start seeing updates come out like that, then maybe we'll even see, in a few years, version 10.10.220, where, not only can we get all the music we want for $.99 (per song), but we can also make all the long distance phone calls we want for the same amount...

An iChat update would've been nice...
I mean - there they are harping on about Video Conferencing, but it's looking more and more likely as if that feature will be supplied on Panther.

UT2K3!!!!!! I CANT WAIT!!!
Anyway, I would like to update to 10.2.6 (I'm running 10.2.4), but the Combo Update is 84.4MB and I have 56k. Last time I remember, the 10.2.5 update is only 40+MB, and if the 10.2.6 Update is less than 10MB, then that'd only be about 50Mb to DL.
Should I DL the updates separately, or just get the Combo? Is there any difference?
One more thing, I have a FEELING that UT2K3 is coming soon, why else would it be in the kbase article??
edit:
Not fair
....they removed the 10.2.5 update. But I guess it's for the benefit of the public; it was causing problems....

Re: T610
I was pretty psyched until I found an article on google indicating it would retail for $700. I hope that was some foreign currency, because I can't see it having a reasonable price, even with cell-co. subsidies.

t616 q3?
It looks like from this article:
http://www.phonescoop.com/articles/semc_2003/index.php?p=2
that the T616 won't be out until Q3.
There's pictures of a presentation from a couple months ago, so that seems pretty reliable info.
$800 eh? Damn. $300-$400 with a new service plan sounds almost reasonable...

Re: Spring cleaning...
I repair my permissions from the jag disc more than I should have to. Certainly I do it more now than with previous updates when I hardly had to worry. I have repaired permissions one day 4 times after 4 consecutive crashes. kernel panics really suck. I hope this update helps the problem.
Apple computer is far from saintly to warrant such blind obiedience, by the way. I feel like you trivialize the problems I've had in past month with the OS. Its been a real bind in my productivity and has most definately raised my stress level a bit.

Warning! Not using your mac under 10.2.6 will cause kernel panics.
1. I updated to 10.2.6
2. Restarted computer
3. Launched Safari
4. Did not browse any pages.
5. Left the computer to go watch 24.
6. Came back to discover that I had a kernel panic while I was away.
7. Posted this.
8. Going to repair permissions.
9. Note: I have no USB connections other than a Logitech dual laser mouse. Could this be my problem?
10. Will post results after repairing permissions.

Re: Re: Spring cleaning...
If your on 10.2.4 then you can repair permissions whithout using your disk.
Just goto Disk Aid in your Util folder, then choose to repair permissions...you dont even have to restart.

What's wrong with them? I can't say I know of too many complaints, especially after 10.2.3. Plus, apparently plenty of people (Steinberg/Pro Tools/Logic/MOTU (soon) users) seem to think Jag works fine for audio...but I don't use OS X for audio on a regular basis, so I wouldn't have any direct experience with any problems.

BS, I upgraded to 10.2.6, left half a dozen apps running (including Mail & Safari) for 2 hours and came back to my system running just fine. Your bad experience doesn't mean it will happen to everyone
