Photoshop CS3 Crash at Launch ; a Solution to a Very Specific Issue
A couple of month ago, I've tried to install a copy of Photoshop CS3 downloaded from the adobe website. Unfortunately, photoshop always crashed when I tried to start it. (an exception was thrown in some CoreFoundation code) I first was thinking that something was wrong in my system, maybe CS3 is not compatible with my version of Leopard... But After some hours of hunting, I discovered that it was entirely my fault : remeber my hack to disable font anti aliasing, it was consisting in setting a new global preference named AppleAntiAliasingThreshold with the command : This command adds the new property in the ~/Library/Preferences/.GlobalPreferences.plist file as a String and Photoshop tries to parse it as a Number thus resulting in an awful exception ; so the solution is either you remove the property or you change it's type. (any plist can be open file from the command line using the open command) From Tiger to Leopard - Activity Monitor Crashes
After I have upgraded my Macbook Pro to Leopard some month ago, I was wondering why I couldn't launch the Activity Monitor anymore (I was having an error claiming some symbol was not found in /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dydl or somthing like that). As usual ; my first comment about that was : again, mac os x is a piece of crap... This is not totally true, only the installer of MacOS actually is a piece of crap Yesterday I figured out that I have two version of the Activity Monitor : one in /Application (the buggy Tiger version) and one in /Application/Utilities (the Leopard version). So I deleted the Tiger version and start using the new Leopard version and a miracle happened : it worked ! Unbelievable Debian Security Issue
Two days ago, Debian developpers annouced a huge security breach has been introduced in libssl since september 2006 as a patch to the random number generator ([DSA 1571-1] New openssl packages fix predictable random number generator ; Debian -- Security Information -- DSA-1571-1 openssl). Unfortunately, this unstable version of libssl is the one used for a while in Debian based distributions like Ubuntu, thus all debian or Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu (...) users are required to upgrade their version of libssl and also check all key material generated since 2006 For Gentoo users, nothing has to be done ; their non patched openssl version is ok. Again, a new reason for not using any debian based distributions... Gentoo rocks. |
