It seems that only Lexar card readers have a problem with 10.3.3. I did repair the disk permissions. I spent an hour on the phone with an apple tech and he took me through a whole range of troubleshooting steps, even to the extent of pressing a reset button on the motherboard. I'm just going to download in system 9 and wait for a bug disk. I also have a sandisk reader at work. I'm going to bring that home tonight and try it here.

I upgraded from OSX 10.3.2 to 10.3.3 this morning, and now my flash cards won't open on the OSX desktop. Fortunately, I have a dual system G4, so I can boot in 9.2 and download my files. I spent almost an hour on the phone with apple techs trying to work through the problem. They apparently don't have a fix. I expect a patch to appear on software update in a day or two. But OSX users who don't want to deal with the card reader problem might want to hold off on installing 10.3.3. Note: All my cards are Lexar. Others might be readable, but I doubt it. Paul
Thanks for the heads-up Paul. I have the .3 update but was going to hold
off for a few weeks in case anything obvious reared up. Now it has. Sorry
for the obvious, but did you repair the disk permissions after you
installed the update? FSCK in single user mode? I'll hunt about for any
info I can find...
Cheers, Cotty
