a8ne Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 I know. 10.4.6.5 will be out Tuesday and then 10.4.7 by the end of next week. I bet we get stuck at 10.4.999... for a while though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyrana Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 I highly doubt that is why they are updating. Did you notice it is like a 130MB+ update? The update currently delivers about 50 documented improvements, including several OpenGL-related fixes, improvements to CoreImage and CoreGraphics, and other bug corrections for iSync, AppleScript, and other components. Known issues with the update include certain AppleScripts not running correctly and Safari hanging in some situations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xiberia Posted February 23, 2006 Author Share Posted February 23, 2006 the PPC version is 130 meg, the Intel one is 165 meg! also, its a much bigger update than 1.4.5, so I don't think its all bug fixes. If it is, they're mighty big bugs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ouch Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 Wonder if it allows core duo's to power down the second core? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Velvet Nightmare Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 An update at that size for the PPC hasn't been seen in quite a while. But as far as CoreGraphics and AppleScripts, that's speed, and is great that Apple can get it to us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dponmac Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 I know. 10.4.6.5 will be out Tuesday and then 10.4.7 by the end of next week. I bet we get stuck at 10.4.999... for a while though. well they could start doing 10.4.10 and 10.4.11 and so on, but i know what you mean, this is ridiculous. Im so glad XP just releases hotfixes in between service packs, otherwise XP would be 20.8.9.4.6.5.20.36.5.21.23. build 86111Fdba Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mofo-X Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 Greetings, This announcement/seed is not due to the security of .5 being broken, that post on thinksecret has been there a few days well before any patch solution was released or mentioned for .5, it is pure coincidence that it was released the day after 1045 Patch Solution was released.

nylock10 Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 (This was done editing SystemVersion.plist, obviously ) How do I open that file? They are coming out with new versions too quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guilliamo Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 How do I open that file? They are coming out with new versions too quickly. Apple may release new Intel Mac models on Feb 28th. I'd expect that the rush of "point" releases will abate a bit once we have Intel versions to replace the: 12" & 17" PowerBooks iBooks Mini G5 tower At this point Apple must be (in no particular order): 1) Preparing for new hardware (video cards, chip sets, etc., etc.) 2) Attempting to address all known security issues 3) Finalizing (or maybe stabilizing) the "features" that lock OSX Intel to Apple hardware. 4) Fixing bugs 5) Further optimizing OSX for Intel 6) Preparing for release/sale of a unified 10.4.X DVD that will support PPC (G4/G5) & Intel Macs 7) Accomodating Core Duo Errata G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iMaurice Posted February 27, 2006 Share Posted February 27, 2006 cant this have to do with the release of leopard when you think about it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnniecarcinogen Posted February 27, 2006 Share Posted February 27, 2006 well tomorrow is the Apple event where reporters have been invited to "come see some fun new products" in Cupertino. I hope its an intel mac mini or Leopard being bumped ahead of scheduel... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyrana Posted February 28, 2006 Share Posted February 28, 2006 I wonder if 10.4.6 also includes say... x1300 support? Although I think 10.4.5 does include gma950/945g so -if- a new mini or iBook comes out they could use it. x1300 would be better though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iMaurice Posted February 28, 2006 Share Posted February 28, 2006 leopard wont be bumped ahead of schedule that much its gonna compete against vista, but could mean demos are bumped ahead of schedule Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
