Field Note #5 @emaxxx 2008-03-21
[cite] kift:It makes my DVD Player.app crash. Did anyone have the same situation?

Me too...
Hope it will be resolved soon

Field Note #6 @agrafuese 2008-03-21

how does it crash for you? right when you start the app or after you've started watching a DVD? i ask because i noticed that it would refuse to start up for me once right after i updated applesmbios, but it i *think* it was because i was trying to play a region-coded ISO (yeah, that sounds weird to me too...hmmm…haha). but it works fine for me otherwise.

Field Note #7 @WinLinMac01 2008-03-21

Which time machine (latest update that is floating around?) You need patched 9.2.2. kernel according to my understanding at insanelymac.com

Field Note #8 @WinLinMac01 2008-04-06

I just wanted to confirm, this SMBIOS version is the latest SMBIOS27, right? What is the correct version number?
Also, ACPI Power Management is not included in the latest release by Zephyroth right?
