If you take a look at Apple Forum or similar, the general consensus is that the last known stable Jaguar was OSX10.2.6. OSX10.2.8 was created after OSX10.2.7 that was for G5, and introduced instability to older machines. When I first installed a clean OSX10.2.8, the user Application Support directory was owned by root and access was read-only, which repair permission won't work of course, and caused a lot of crashes on many applications. This bug seems to be intermittent but saw enough of similar reports on forums. Cost me two days of troubleshooting. -- - Hiro [PROTECTED] [PROTECTED]
Re: Spamsieve question
Michael, [EMAIL PROTECTED] said: it could be that SpamSieve didn't actually predict that 68 of them were good; maybe another filter stopped the processing before the SpamSieve filter executed. This is it was. I forgot I had another homemade spam filter that I hadn't turn off. Spamsieve now works fine and catched a whole lot of spams. It's too bad I have to download them though. However, checking my oldest account suddenly is doable without drowning in spams. Very nice. PM 4.2.1 | OS X 10.2.6 | Powerbook G3/266 | 128 MB RAM | 20 GB HD

But I won't update any user-machine to 10.3 in the moment. Thanks. I'm kinda holding off myself until I can afford 10.3 and a new Panther compatible version of XPostFacto comes out. 10.2.6 is rock solid for me except for an occasional Safari crash, but I think that's because of too little memory. Working on getting more very soon, but I have take care of my display first. The Safari crashes didn't happen when I had moved my HD temporarilly to another Wallstreet with 512 MB. And for 10.2.8, I go for the if it ain't broke, don't fix it approach. At least until one of my main apps in daily use demand that I do.

Marlyse, [EMAIL PROTECTED] said: a) quit pm b) within the pm folder select User Prefs c) create stuffit or zip archive from User Prefs and trash/delete the original User Prefs d) launch pm I've had this fix the only more serious problem I ever had with PM, might help here too. Preference problems are sadly a real problem also in OS X. It's a good thing to remind about this now and then. Also, thanks for the tip.
