All OK so far on PB.

Anyone have any issues before I run the eMac, iMac and iBook?

"USB video conferencing cameras for use with iChat"
Or it could mean that OS X will work more easily with 3rd party cameras???

Alright MacOS 10.4.9 is out... this could indicate the new Mac Pro is not far off.

I wonder if it adds support for USB cams in the way that Ecamm's iChatUSB Cam does? Interesting.

Mac OS X 10.4.9 Combo Update (PPC 163MB)

Mac OS X 10.4.9 Combo Update (Intel) 310MB

Arguably a more stable way of installing updates.
The way I like to update.

Interesting Dave I always use the Delta from Software Update and have had no problems . I figure it this way the less code that gets updated the less chance of a bit going wonky and causing a problem . Any way the update installed without problem and I also got the iPhoto update but then again I seldom use iPhoto
I remembered to disconnect my fire wire drives this time LOL I don't think this has been an issue since Panther 10.3.9 but it never hurts to practice "Safe Upgrade"

Yup, it's 10.4.1 - 10.4.9 all in one.

No issues on the update. I ran the delta - result was fine - but because I am anal about updates I ran the combo over it too. The Combo did a double restart.

I prefer the Combo because in early OSX versions it solved problems to do so. Also ran Repair Permissions before and after, tho' I understand this is largely serendipitous.

Either way, no issues to this moment.

PMG5 Quad Problems - 17" MBP CD No Problems... yet

So far, the main problem with my PMG5 Quad is the optical drive Eject key not working as others have stated. I'm using an Apple BT Wireless Keyboard.

I also use a second Apple BT Wireless Keyboard with my 17" MBP Core Duo and the eject key works just fine their after the update.

I'm very disappointed that Apple could let such an obvious bug through their QA.

What's the best way to report this to Apple so they can get it fixed quickly? Not being able to open the optical drive bay to insert a disk is going to be a problem.

Have you tried F12??
You can also put an eject button in the menu bar - I have to 3rd party KB.

Oh yeah no problem seems snappier ;)

Likely cuz I hadn't restarted in a while and maybe cuz of the 1900 card. :D
No big change on 1000 windows.

Sorry, I'm confused. F12 is the default Dashboard key. How does brining up Dashboard open the drive tray?

And how does one put an Eject key in the menu bar?

Either way it's disconcerting that the Eject key on the keyboard doesn't open the drive tray.

Hmmm - it DID fix a mouse scrolling problem - some websites would stall out part way ( NYT ).
Now scrolls completely - THAT's worth it alone. :clap:

Might help some erratic BT devices.
