Apple Releases Mac OS X 10.2.6
Numeric writes "Apple has released 10.2.6 update, which you can read in detail. Here's a partial list: Addresses an issue for Mac OS X 10.2.5 in which a kernel panic message may appear if certain USB hubs or devices are connected. Addresses an issue for Mac OS X 10.2.5 in which English is the default language and Asian language scripts are not be available in the International preference pane, if a script's font is not available. Address Book now supports the Sony Ericsson T610 phone."
It is a small list of fixes. 10.2.5 was released less then 3 weeks ago, if memory serves.
:)
Apple just needed to get the 10.2.6 patch out quickly, because it was a pretty signifigant bug for some people.
Since the fix is probably at the kernel level, the fix warrants it's own patch version.
This was my first real experience with an OS X problem. Took me 3 hours to figure out that my Godmother's G4 was crashing because of the USB hub. Pro bono, but at least I got some homecooked meals and some education out of the exchange
