Okay I have time to write now.
Problem 1
"Broken pipe."
That's the error I get when I try to connect to my Windows share that worked fine in Tiger. Whether I try to connect through Finder or through the command-line it's the same thing. At least the finder gives me a code (error code: -6602) which turns up jack squat. Other than that all I get is "syserr: broken pipe".
However I can still connect to the share from my other Windows and Ubuntu machines. From the Mac I can see the shares, even RDC in to the computer with the share. But mounting the share is FAIL.
Nuisance 2
iTunes for Windows.
I normally don't have a problem with iTunes. In fact, it's my primary music player for everything except streams. But usually when I'm in a game I use the media keys on my keyboard so I can have music going whilst I'm pwning j00 n00bz. But it all of a sudden it stopped working. I'm thinking there's a problem with my keyboard. No no no... it seems Apple took out the media key functionality in a recent iTunes update. I was able to fix this though. Trolling through some Apple and Logitech forums I was able to find the mmkeys.dll that was apparently taken out in 7.2. FAIL.
Gripe 3
Connecting to WPA encrypted WiFi
This has always been an epic fail for Apple. It's sucked in Tiger and it hasn't gotten any better in Leopard. Sure I can connect to the network but only for about 5-10 minutes at a time. After that I lose my connection. So to reconnect I'm forced to restart Airport. I thought they would've fixed this but apparently it's still FAIL.

Odd I did not have that problem w/ leopard on my laptop and my linux box running samba... I wonder if it's a bug in the version of samba you have on the mac or something.... definitely weird.Libra Monkee wrote:Okay I have time to write now.

Not that I know anything about Macs, but ... I'm gonna speak up anyway. I heard that those performing an upgrade had problems while those who did a clean install had few (-er) problems. Did you do an upgrade?Libra Monkee wrote:Problem 1

That actually could be it as I only did fresh installs of leopard.

I tried doing an upgrade. It was FAIL.So I ended up doing one of those "install but retain files and settings" deals.

Haven't tried creating a new account. I don't really see why that would work but I'll try it and if it does the MBP is going out the f**king window.
When I get home tonight I'll save off console/ error logs. But all they say is "Broken Pipe" for the share problem. The wifi logs are just as useless so I haven't bothered looking at them for a while. But I'll connect again so it it can FAIL and then post the results.
