yo, so after upgrading to 10.4.8, sometimes (1 out of every 3 times) i reboot my comptuer, I get stuck at that blue login window screen with the circular animation going on practically forever.

 

Is this the so-called login window crash? If it is, i went to my JaS 10.4.8 dvd and tried to install the LoginWindow Crash package from 10.4.4, it STILL CRASHES!!

 

Can someone please help me with this? it's getting kind of frustrating. Any instructions would be appreciated.

 

Thanks in advance!

TeKKi has been aiding me to get to the bottom of this, and here is the excerpt from the system.log file. PLEASE SOMEBODY BE ABLE TO UNDERSTAND WHAT IT COULD BE. :P

 

"Nov 9 02:04:11 localhost /usr/libexec/WaitingForLoginWindow: kCGErrorCannotComplete : CGSDeviceGetGeometry: Invalid device window"

 

Thanks again in advance.

damnit somebody help, this is driving me insane. i keep having to reset the computer like 2-3 times in a row. thanks.

 

btw, heres some more info from loginwindow.crash log
