I like the fact that my 1ghz PB now feels much faster with Tiger, brilliant upgrade and shows just what Apple can do withing an 18 month timeframe. I expect 10.5 will be the dog's bollocks. Tho I don't like the fact Logic (7.0.1) crashes I get when 'saving as a project' (both on the PB and the G5).

And don't get me started on Apple's paper launch of (Logic) 7.1 seeing as I ordered it 2 days before it was officially announced and it's been delayed twice so far :/

Funnily enough, Tiger seems to have got rid of my Logic crashes!

I did a thorough cache clear-out on 10.3, and an archive and install on 10.4, might have done the trick.

Aaah, I just did an upgrade, couldn't be arsed fixing any license keys that may get trashed with archive/install.

Try clearing your caches then. Worked wonders for me.

p.s. Widgets: SuhhhhhhWEEEEEEEET

Never upgrade unless you havent added much to the system, and use it for stuff like web browsing, word processing, and music playing.

Why can I only get the US yellow pages though?

Do the more widgets... in dashboard, and there should be a few other country yellow pages listed.

How'd I do that then..?

Best way is really to do an archive and install rather than upgrade (you can choose to keep your home library), 'cos you'll get a faster system at the end of it (for example, because of the way I upgraded, my G5 had a bunch of obsolete system and preference files from as far back as my original lime iMac!), but the other way is:

Logic infoweb wrote: OS: X: Kernel Panic after OS X update or audio hardware change

Product: Platinum, Gold, Audio, Pro, Express
Version: 6.x, 5.x

Description:
When starting Logic (or the AudioMidi Setup) the computer crashes with a kernel panic. The problem only occurs sometimes and is hard to sort out.

Explanation:
The problem can occur after an OS X update, after installing new audio drivers or changing the audio hardware. The old drivers are still present in the system cache.

Suggestion:
NOTE: Please only perform the following steps if you have the necessary experience. In case of doubt please contact your apple dealer.

Try to solve the problem by deleting the files /System/Library/Extensions.kextcache and
/System/Library/Extensions.mkext. Therefore you need to be logged in the Terminal.app as administrator.
The commands to delete the files are:

sudo rm /System/Library/Extensions.kextcache
sudo rm /System/Library/Extensions.mkext
reboot

After deleting and restarting fresh copies of the files will be created by the system.

n1, I'll take a look.

Normally the routines I run are repair persmissions before and after a software install and sudo periodic daily/weekly/monthly.

Ther are some new drivers for the 828 MK2 out too I may take a look at.

i went and played with tiger in the apple store and it was alright... not worth upgrading my computer for tho, unless i get one with it preinstalled.

A lot of the improvements in Tiger (let's forget 200+ new features) are under the hood and would take more than a play in the Apple Store to fully appreciate. My 1ghz Powerbook feels like it got a speedbump to 1.33 or something.

That's what we have. You originally had 10.2 or 10.3 on it? I'm wondering because we're still on 10.2.8...

Posted: **Mon May 02, 2005 12:09 pm**

10.3.9 beforehand. But it's the Powerbook that's seen the greatest improvement all round. The G5 (dual 2.0, 1.5gb ram) feels snappier/more responsive rather than much faster.

I get to install it tonight!!! Woohoo!!
