Geekbench worked until after the upgrade, and I sure did not change anything. How do I fix this? I mean I already did a:
CODE
sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.windowserver Quartz2DExtremeEnabled false

But that didn't help.

I have just upgraded my Dell Vostro 500 to Snow Leopard few days ago, and I updated it to 10.6.1 today.
If anyone wants an Guide to update to 10.6.1, just tell me.
BiTRiP

Why a guide? Just upgrade from menu and done.
Works fine here with vanilla SL.

I've just installed it on my AMD machine. It works fine.

There is no need to update BOOT or kernel files after upgrade. Just install and restart.

adrock42

cain.
If an update doesn't do anything at all, it is pretty easy to apply.
Moonwolf
