[OS X] No more new System Preferences

[McFreggle]

Hiya guys,

I have the following problem:

Last week i reinstalled OS X on my iBook. Now, I'm running OS X 10.1.5 again. I installed some programs, it all went well. I installed ASM and the ASM system prefpane is present at the System Preferences.

But now, no more new system prefpanes appear. So, I keep all my prefpanes, including the extra one from ASM, but no matter what application I install extra (Remote Desktop, DAVE, ...): the PrefPanes don't appear in the System Preferences anymore. I checked the PrefPanes directories and they are there. Also, when another user logs in, they are present! So it's somewhere a user specific setting.

I hope I make myself clear somehow. Anyone who knows how to get my new PrefPanes present in the System Prefs?

Thanx a lot,
k.

Have you tried uninstalling/removing ASM and then trying to install the others to see if the PrefPanes show up? Maybe it's an incompatibility between ASM and the System?

I had this happen when I was installing 10.1 to a secondary drive. I never found a way to solve it. Sometimes, System Preferences would be okay, sometimes not. Sometimes Finder wouldn't work. All is solved with Jaguar though.

The ASM-website says it all...
