Ahh, thanks. I think I may give logitech a little poke to see if they're gonna update thier driver also.

With 10.6.1 some people are reporting getting a 9.8MB update instead of the 75.1MB I got. And my system and flash and everything was all up-to-date as well. Weird

Someone left a little surprise in Software Update

Just in time for the Snow Leopard I have just bought today.

People are speculating printer drivers.

It's made no difference to the way my printer is recognised, I still only get the generic driver option.

Just got my 10.6.1 update - I got the 9.8MB one. All working fine as far as I can tell.

You need to removed it and add it again and it should sort it out... but thats assuming you've installed a base printer drivers from the disk.

 

[Feek]

Yeah, I did remove it and reinstall. But I don't recall adding any printer drivers when I installed, I assumed it would detect my printer and go find the correct driver. Is it possible to add them at a later stage?

/edit - Ahah, I see that running the Optional Installs on the DVD is giving me the ability to add drivers. I've chosen the second option, ones for common and connected printers. Here goes!

/edit2 - That's better. It's got the correct driver now.

Depending on how common your thing is then you may have to go one further...

Mine were on the common bit...

I got the 9.8 on the MacBook Pro (Core Duo) and the 75 on the 2009 Mini.

My early 08 MPB has just been sat on the grey startup screen with the spinning circle for about 20 mins after it rebooted in the upgrade process. Do i pull the plug or leave it?

I'll check it again after I've had a shower.

makes sense. mine was 9.xx Mb and i never installed any printer drivers on the first install

im still getting completley random safari restarts sometimes when viewing flash videos though

Pull it.

For some reason recent updates inc Leopard get stuck.

Both my Mac Pro and Macbook Pro got stuck at 10.5.7 yet other peoples did at 10.5.8.

Weird!

 

[b0rn2sk8]

I restarted it, seems to be running ok at the moment.

 

[Blackhawk47]

Quite like the new features that I tried out so far. Now to install iWork.

 

[oldbag]

Damn, simplyburns doesn't work on SL.

 

[knowledge123]

I've just received my copy of SL. I really don't want to do a fresh install, as I have everything set up as I like it (Bootcamp etc etc).
2 questions;

1) Is there any concrete evidence that doing an upgrade sucks compared to a fresh install ?

2) Will an update affect my Bootcamp partition ? Does it update my Bootcamp version ?
