Apple Releases Mac OS X 10.3.9 Update

OmniVector writes "Right after the Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger announcement just a few days ago, Apple has released an update to version 10.3.9 for Mac OS X and Mac OS X Server (both available via Software Update). The changes mostly include bugfixes with Stickies, Safari, and the Finder." The Server update also addresses issues with Open Directory, cyrus, AFP, and SMB, among others. Apple also updated iMovie, iPhoto, iDVD, and iSight this week.

    Everything feels peppier and more responsive! Doesn't take 15 minutes to copy a 20MB file anymore either.

    Haven't even run the update yet either. ;)

  2. Ambient light sensor works again by MasterofSpork · · Score: 5, Interesting

    The light sensor in my Powerbook isn't going nuts changing my screen brightness anymore. Maybe this issue has been fixed too. I'm not in fluorescent lighting to give it a good test though.

  3. Re:OT: Trackpad in Firefox by steeviant · · Score: 5, Informative

    It's actually an issue with firefox interpreting inadvertent horizontal scrolling (easy to do with iscroll2 or the new [USB] trackpads) as back/forward requests. Here's how to fix this intentionally broken behaviour...

    From macosxhints.com:
    In Firefox, type about:config into the address bar and hit return. This gives you a list of all possible configuration options. The ones we want are those that start with mousewheel.horizscroll.withnokey. Make the following changes by double-clicking the appropriate option in the list:

    * mousewheel.horizscroll.withnokey.action => 0
    * mousewheel.horizscroll.withnokey.sysnumlines => true
