GreenSock Doubling Problem (Bug?)

I've run into an issue where if I set the visibility to an object that is being tweened to 1, GS creates a second instance of the object.
In the attached file, click the 'btn' and notice that a 2nd row of envelopes is created and they are not blitted like the original instance.
Bug or operator error?
Thanks.

IE margin doubling problem

I am working on a site. I have a floated horizontal list of items at the very top of the header. It looks fine in Firefox and Safari but in IE 8 it forces the last item on to a second line. I have read about the margin doubling problem with IE and I've tried all sorts of ways to keep this from happening but can't seem to figure it out.
http://www.prospectrealty1.fatcow.com/index.html
any help on how I can keep the floated list all on one line in IE will be very much appreciate.
thanks!

The problem is with the line of text (address, phone, etc) at the very top of the header, not the nav. It looks fine in Firefox and Safari but not in IE. I believe it's because of the IE margin doubling that I have learned about. I've got the string of text/ bullet list so it fills the space with 20 px space on each end. When IE adds extra margin it forces the last item (email address) down onto a second line.
I'm thinking of replacing all but the email address with a jpg image. Leaving the email address as a link that can be clicked. I was hoping to find a fix for this IE problem so I could keep it all as text which is a better practice as I understand it.
Oh ok I didnt see that because in Adobe Browser lab the text is showing all on one line in IE7, IE8 and IE9 so it would be difficult for me to diagnose.
I can tell you though it has nothing to do with double margin bug as IE8 and IE9 corrected that. It was only present in IE7 maybe and certainly in IE6. However having said that the IE double margin bug only occurred when you had a floated element which had a margin applied to it in the same direction as the float, i.e. if you floated an element left and then attached a left margin to that element also the margin would double. The solution was to add display: inline; to the elements css selector BUT you have no left margin set on the <li> tag.
It is most likely as Nancy points out an engine difference in the way IE browsers size the text. Does this occur if you use px instead of em? If not use px....I never use em myself as I've found it does cause issues ocassionally. Also its not good practice to fill a whole horizontal line with text information where you want its visual appearence maintained, very bad. Horizontal menus never work and lines of text never do either. The art of designing a webpage is allowing enough space so the text can 'grow' into in the case when a browser interprets the text size slightly differently. Obviously that's difficult if you are re-creating this webpage build for some designer who has little knowledge of good web design practices.
In cases where a client is absolutely definitive that they want too many links in a horizontal menu or a line of text, which must remain on one line, I would have no hestitaion about using an image. Just give the image an 'alt' and if the image is surrounded by an anchor tag give that a 'title' tag. That will keep your page 'user' friendly for those who have a disabilities.

Reporting some proxy problems/bugs

Is there a way to report problems/bugs in the proxy software without having support? I believe this can be done for Java, but what about the proxy?
In our environment we are using the proxy software (currently v4.0.5, but I haven't seen these items in the release notes of the newer versions of the software) in the reverse proxy mode and have encountered what I believe may be a couple of bugs.
Possibly related to a previous poster's "Content-length mismatch" error message, it seems that some app servers respond to an If-modified-since conditional GET request incorrectly by sending a Content-length header along with the "304 not modified response" (there should be no such header in a 304 response). When proxy caching is enabled and the GZip compression filter is used, one result I have seen is the "Content-length match" error message which happens when the incorrectly included Content-length header has a non-zero value. A different result occurs when the incorrectly included Content-length header has a value of zero - the proxy response body gets truncated (completely removed).
A second issue I have seen is with the reverse proxy's handling of a POST with a trailing CR/LF which some browsers (IE) send incorrectly (there should be no such trailing CR/LF in a POST request). The proxy seems to handle the trailing CR/LF for the request/response, however if HTTP1.1 keepalive is used and the POST is followed by a GET request on the same open connection from the browser then the access log entry for the GET request will be broken across two lines.
Hopefully someone from Oracle monitoring these forums will pass these on to the proxy dev team.

Yep, I realize Safari on Windows uses Windows Internet Options to get proxy server info BUT the Windows Internet Options don't provide a place to specify the proxy login information.
As a result, when the browser contacts the proxy it usually (or should) prompt the user for the login info. Safari did the first time and I told it to save the info. Then my login info changed and rather than prompt for it again, Safari sits there and doesn't load any pages.
IE7 uses the same proxy without problems because IE uses the domain login credentials to connect to the proxy server.
Google Chrome uses the Windows Internet Options for proxy support and it prompts me to login to the proxy each time I fire it up and access a website.
Mozilla Firefox 3.0.4 will prompt me for login information if the login info it has stored won't work for the proxy connection.
Opera 9.62 prompts me for the proxy login information each time I fire it up, just like Google Chrome.
Out of all of those browsers, Safari is the only one that can't use the proxy because I can't change the login information for the proxy connection.
Peace...

OWB 11.2.0.1 – Known Problems/bugs resolutions ?

OWB 11.2.0.1 – Known Problems/bugs resolutions ?
==========================================
We are using OWB 11gR2, Java(TM) Platform 1.5.0_17, Oracle IDE 11.2.0.1.0.
We are finding the strange behavior in OWB Design center. Here is the situation.
1) OWB Design Center>Databases>Defined Module> Mappings>MAP1>Mapping Editor>Expression Editor>
Output attributes>Expression Builder
Specify the expression and press OK.
Another Expression Builder opens up with blank window. We need to specify the expression again.
2) Same as above after opening expression Builder, if we go to another apps (eg. SQL Developer, MS Word) and come back expression Builder disappeared from the context.
We find only Expression Editor. Design Center Hangs. It is not responding to any KEYs. We need to kill the application via task manager and re-start.
Are these issues related to OWB client piece or OWB Client+Server piece?
We did not find any events reporting at DB alert Logs for such events. Do we need to set up some trace ON to record such events?
Are there any log files/tables record such events at OWB repository level to trace back?
Do we have OWB 11.2.0.1 known issues/bugs, resolutions list posted somewhere?
Thanks in helping.

We reviewed the release notes, where it says this patch will improve performance (Bug 7359939).
We find another note in metalink (provided by our DBA team) says
Poor Performance of Mapping Validation / Generation in: OWB 11.2.0.1 + Megapatch 10270220 and OWB 11.2.0.2 [ID 1303177.1]
Are we going to face a new problem after applying this patch?
Thanks in helping.

If I hit enter to go to a new line it's double spaced(BUG)

if I hit enter to go to a new line it's double spaced even thought it's set to single space.
in the inspector "T" the "LINE" says 1 and single. I can change the line spacing to look like 1 by sliding it down to 0.01 to look like 1 of single but that's pretty tedious.
So it's a bug yeah?
The part that's messed up was add in from notes app which is the problem I'm guessing. Still it's a bug.
I've tried copying into a new pages doc and still no go.
Anyway ideas around this bug?
thanks

Probably just had an extra return at the end of paragraph, which is a common style in Notes.

HP LaserJet 2605dn latest driver problem/bug

Hi
I just downloaded and installed the latest driver for this machine, upd-pcl6-x64-5.7.0.16448.exe released a few weeks ago. I found a problem and hope someone can verify and fix it later. That is, when I change the "Paper type:" to something other than "Unspecificed", I cannot print double-sided anymore. The step is really easy to reproduce, please let me know if I miss anything.
Thanks

Problems / Bugs / Improvements we have found - Experienced users.

Hello there,
I work for an animation / film company and After Effects is an integral part of out production services. As much as we love the program, its not without its flaws. Here are some things we have found after using After Effects day in and day out...
Clone Stamp :
Please can you add a keyframe-able 'offset' feature to the clone stamp source region? It seems that there isn't a great way of doing this without expressions. We found a workaround which is to offset the centre point of the tracker before we do the track, then parent the clone source region to this point. Theres a lot of people online who think the cloner is completely broken for use in video, but the problem is that theres no easy way to parent the source region to a tracker...
Rendering :
Practically every day we turn up to work and find that a lot of renders weren't successful. This causes us lots and lots of unnecessary stress and problems. If there is any stability fixes that you can do then we would be highly appreciative. (Possibly just making it so that the ram is purged after each clip is rendered? - It seems to be a memory problem half the time even though this machine has 64GB of ram...). Renders also seem to be excruciatingly slow at times, even though were using an extremely powerful machine; is there nothing that can be done to accelerate renders and/or use more of the computers resources? We have found that sometimes if we pre-render a comp, it renders pretty instantaneously when in the render queue, whereas we have seen the same comp stuck doing barely anything in the render queue for hours..?
Additionally, can there be a way to change the render path/settings of multiple renders in one go? Unless were mistaken, it seems like each clip has to be manually set up and this is extremely painstaking when working with a lot of files! Also media encoder doesn't seem to render files accurately quite a lot of the time, not sure at all where the problem is but we have totally stopped using this way of rendering now as the renders rarely come out as expected.
Switching between comps:
PLEASE can you create a MASTER FX switch, which will turn off ALL the effects and motion blur in the entire project (not just the comp you are in)? This would be an amazing feature as we spend SO much time just waiting for heavy comps to open just so we can add them to the render queue... Possibly this could not effects the final render, but just allow you to quickly get into a comp? We know that caps lock stops any preview being loaded but there are many limitations to this approach.
Motion blur:
Sometimes we notice that if we have motion blur switched on inside of pre-comps, the blur is being calculated and applied multiple times, which looks horrible and takes forever to calculate... A master motion blur controller is long overdue in After Effects and programs such as Nuke have had this feature since day 1. We would love to see this feature and i'm sure there are many others who would too!
3D controls:
We would love to see better 3D controls for positioning layers etc - if there were improvements on the 3D manipulation tools (Rotate,translate,scale...) to resemble the look of a full 3D program, our lives would be much easier .
Mesh warp / Nulls:
It would be amazing to be able to parent points on the mesh warp to a null object, or at least give every mesh warp point a positional value. This would enable animators to create much improved 2D rigs for characters etc! At the moment the mesh warp isn't very robust and is difficult to get the desired control and effect.
Lens blur/Depth of field:
Can you please add an easier way to see what is in focus and whats not, when using a depth pass? There is a great feature in Nuke which allows u to see where the depth of field is taking place called 'focal plane setup', but it seems that after effects is a case of trial and error when dealing with this kind of task! Would also be amazing if you could simply click the area you want to be in focus (like in Nuke )
Duplicating comps and child comps:
PLEASE can you add an option to duplicate a comp as well as all the comps inside of it? If your dealing with complex projects it is horrific to have to go in and duplicate the comp then ALT drag the duplicate in so your not destroying other comps linked to that comp (hope that doesn't sound too confusing!). There are some scripts when claim to add this functionality but we've had no joy with any of these so far...
Multiple comps / new viewer problems
This is a big one for me and my colleagues. When there are two comp viewers on screen, please can you make the timeline switch to the corresponding comp when you click within the viewer window? Its a huge pain to have to switch between timelines when your doing this! Please can you also add the option to add real time updates in both comp viewers when you have two comp viewers on screen? It seems that only one updates in real time which can be pretty annoying...
I think thats everything for now, it would be amazing if you could rectify some of these problems as i know it would make a lot of people very happy!
Cheers!

Some of the issues you're describing already have fixes underway. Specifically rendering and switching between comps. The Adobe folks have said that the majority of the After Effects team is working on making AE behave differently (much more quickly) in interactivity and rendering. As I've heard it described, it sounds a lot like it'll answer both of those issues.
I believe I speak for all of us who use AE every day when I say, "We cannot wait! (Well, we can wait until the bugs are squashed...but you know what we mean!)" If you missed the initial public discussion on this: Happy New Year! ~ and a question… The overwhelming response to that question was FASTER! And the AE team listened. YAY!
Please have you (and everyone on your team who cares) file feature requests for the rest of these too. It would be great to be able to have the functionality of the True Comp Duplicator script a little more robustly and integrated into AE! And the DOF thing is a biggie too. Adobe - Feature Request/Bug Report Form
The folks on the AE team do listen to feature requests and the more they get for a certain feature, the higher priority it gets.
This is just a forum for users to help each other. Granted, the AE team is great about looking in too, but feature requests are the official way for them to track these things.
And, hey, EVERYONE ELSE reading this; file feature requests too! Adobe wants us to stay subscribed and happy, so let them know what we need/want.

Blur Problems (bug report submitted)

I've submitted a bug report and will submit this again since its a better version of when I sent them before. The problem is this:
- Adobe Acrobat Professional shows blur in certain situations. In another situation, the same file opens correctly. The file below is self-explanatory, i.e.:
1. This is what you see when you do a fresh start, with no pre-existing Adobe processes running. Sometimes though the blur will show up even if its a fresh start.
2. Thats what you see when the file has been closed but Acrobat Professional is still running and open.
If anyone needs the original PDF, it can be downloaded at:
http://www.2shared.com/document/P927Y4Vm/scanned-doc-2.html
In area 1, you can see the glaring difference in visual quality. The blur makes it very hard and irritating to read the PDF. Notice how the blur alternates. Some areas are sharp while others are soft. Area 2 is how it should always look like (crisp).
If you cant see this image properly, it is uploaded at:
http://img96.imageshack.us/img96/4113/adobeacrobatproblurbug.jpg
Adobe Acrobat Professional version, latest: 9.3.4
System: Windows XP
BUG: Adobe Acrobat Professional shows blurry PDFs in certain situations.
===
STEPS TO RECREATE THE BUG:
Use Windows XP. I'm not sure if this shows up in Vista too. I'm sure it does.
1. Download the PDF from:
http://www.2shared.com/document/P927Y4Vm/scanned-doc-2.html
2. In the Windows Task Manager, make sure there are no pre-existing Adobe processes running such as:
AcrobatInfo.exe, Acrobat.exe, Acrotray.exe
3. Open the PDF file you got in #1. Set zoom to 100%.
4. Notice the visual quality. You will probably see blurry areas in the PDF. This matches Area 1 in this screen shot:
http://img96.imageshack.us/img96/4113/adobeacrobatproblurbug.jpg
5. Close the file by doing: File---> Close
Do not exit the program. Go to Task Manager and verify that Acrobat.exe is already running.
6. Open the file you got in #1, again. Zoom to 100% again.
7. Notice now that the PDF does not have any blurry areas. What you see should match Area 2 in the same screenshot:
http://img96.imageshack.us/img96/4113/adobeacrobatproblurbug.jpg

The choices in Bridge > Preferences > Advanced > International > Keyboard are limited, and they do not allow for choosing custom keyboard layouts.
I need the custom keyboard layouts for a variety of reasons, such as being able to type in seven languages with my most used one without switching, two Russian layouts to allow for two non-standard ways of encoding Russian fonts, etc.

Smudge Tool Double Brush Bug Issue

I have a very strange problem that just appeared in my copy of Adobe Photoshop CS5 Version 12.0 x32
Out of nowhere I've noticed that when I use the Smudge Tool my brush will randomly have 2 points instead of one. I've looked all through my brush settings and everything is normal in the defaul brush settings. Yet when I go to smudge something I get the normal smudge point and then 10 or so pixels away another Smudge Brush at about 50% the size of the normal brush is smudging my image as well. This makes the smudge tool basically useless and I seem to be the only one who has this bug.
Has anyone had a similar bug and is there any solution besides reinstalling?

I check Autodesk Sketchbook Pro and they don't have a smudge tool or anything that looks like it. But their app is really impressive for a company specialised in 3D. I might spend more time on it. Infinite Painter, a bit buggy and slow, have now a move tool that does something "similar" if you play with the parameters. But if you press too much it acts like a pinch. Thing is their move tool seems to blend colors without darkening them... their might be a way !
So of the 3 drawing apps that I have, none have a smudge tool. Which is scary. It seems that transparency is definitely a complex (nothing is impossible to code) thing to code. I'm sure the brains behind Unreal Engine would say it's doable.
Let's wait and hope. But without that, the future of drawing apps on Android is seriously compromised.

ADF 11 - Oracle Developer Day 28.05.2009 Online Tutorial Problem/Bug

Hello
I've downloaded the tutorial [http://events.unisfair.com/index.jsp?eid=394&seid=28] for the Developer Day scheduled for the 28.05.2009. [http://events.unisfair.com/index.jsp?eid=394&seid=28]
I've completed the tutorial and discovered what would seem to be a bug.
I've reproduced the problem in a new simpler application.
Its a bit long but here we go.
The situation is :
Two panel splitters one inside the other, one vertical split and one horizontal split dividing the screen into a 3 parts, a left column and a right column split into a top and a bottom.
ADF BC have been created using the Departmetns and Employees tables from the HR schema.
In the left column there is an adf read only form bound to Departments with navigation controls.
On the right at the top there is a read only table (with row selection) bound to the Employees view in the Departments view (master-detail)
On the right at the bottom there is a form bound to the Employees view in the Departments view (master-detail)
Using the left column read only form I navigate to Department 50 which has employees 120 to 199.
The Employees af:Table shows employees 120 to 191 without scrolling.
Using the scroll bar on the employee table I scroll to the bottom of the employees table (now employees 128 to 199 are showing)
I then select on employee 198
The form at the bottom right correctly positions on employee 198 however the employee table re-positions on employee 190 !
Using the scroll bar I scroll to the bottom of the employees table (now employees 128 to 199 are showing)
Employee 198 is selected.
I select employee 199
The form at the bottom right correctly positions on employee 199 however the employee table re-positions on employee 191 !
I repeat the same process but selection employee 193
The form at the bottom right correctly positions on employee 193 however the employee table re-positions on employee 185 !
It would seem that the employee table scrolls up the exact number of rows that need to be scrolled down in order to show the last table row.
Added to that when the tabel re-positions it would seem to be re-fetching its data...
Can anybody explain what's going on or confirm the above observations?
Regards
Paul

Hi,
there is an attribute "displayRow" on the table to set what should be shown after refreshing the table. Set this to "selected"

Video recording in iOS 6 problems / bug?

I upgraded my iPhone 4S from iOS 6 beta 4 to the public release of iOS 6 last week.
Since then, when i try to record a video using main camera app - i touch start record and its fine until i touch to stop recording. It does not stop recording? It shows recording time carrying on counting and freezes the record button. I have to either way a long time for it to finally stop recording or exit (and kill sometimes) the app. Then re enter camera app and it then is ok to record again.
Is this a known bug? IS it linked to upgrading from iOS 6 beta to main iOS 6 released release? How do i fix this?
Thanks

I have exact same problem on my 4s 64gb.
Had very similar problems on ios 5.1.1, but would freeze the video after having pressed the record button to stop recording, the eventually the iphone would unfreeze, the video would eventually appear in the camera roll as a grey box, you then clicked on the video taken which was a grey background with QuickTime logo, you pressed play but no video would appear, but you could hear the audio.
Now after ios 6 update, I have exact same problem as you, iPhone seems to get quite warm aswell once it has crashed! The photo camera works fine though, and did do on 5.1.1.
Apple say take phone back for a newly refurbished iphone, but didn't want to as I can live without it, Nd my phone is : months old and don't want an older phone! I know there tested thoroughly, but my problem is that I paid £250 upfront on my phone contract to get 64gb and don't want a replacement, everything else works a treat on the phone, only video camera problems as you have now and symptoms as I have described above.
No one in apple seem to know a fix, I read about jail breaking, but don't want to void my warranty!
Does anyone know of a fix please, I've reset, restored, set up as a new phone, fresh ispw files, was told to wait by apple for ios 6 saying that that may fix the problem.
When I read about the problems created by ios updates etc, why is it that people have such random issues, surely if we all have same phones, why is it we don't have very similar issues? Do each and every iPhone have a mind of its own FFS!
I thought I'd trade my phone in an get a samsung galaxy S3, but iPhone 4S prices have slumped since release of iphone 5, I'm definitely not an iphone convert, I've always had htc! Very annoying problem with the video camera, which if you download another camcorder app it does exactly the same and freezes! I give up!
Any updates on this would be great, to me and the person above, if I can find a fix it may restore my faith in apple products!
Navarram1 - could you contact me possibly please if you come across a fix? It would be greatly appreciated!

Compare / Reset Patch Problem, Bug?

Hi
in Mainstge 1 I assigned the nine drawbar controller of the NI B4 II Organ to 9 Faders in the Mainstage Layout, so I can control them with my Korg Nano Control.
In MS 1 when ever I moved a drawbar I got the possibility to reset the patch, so the drawbars jump back to there saved value. In MS 2 this works too. But only for the EVB3, not for the B4 from Native instruments!!! So when I move the drawbars in the layout or on my Nano Kontrol MS 2 does not recognise the patch has changed. MS 2 only recognises the patch is changing, when I move the drawbars in the plugin Window from the B4 II with the mouse. That´s not feasible.
So I thought, the workaround would be to go down und up one patch So the patch can reset to the saved value. Okay then the B4 Patch is set back so the saved value, and sounds like the saved value, but the 9 drawbars don´t takeover the value!!!! The stay at let´s say 000000000 but the sounding and saved value is 888800000. VERY ANNOYING. Anyone else experiencing this?
regards

I have the same problem. This is definitely a BEA bug. Once I set a field as null in XMLBean, the field is no longer "editable." If you edit a field which is set null previously, it will end up something like this:
<log-name xsi:nil="true" xmlns="">log.txt</log-name>
and parent.getLogName() will return null instead of "log.txt."
Can anyone from BEA look into this problem?
Thanks

Double problem in string conversion

I'm working on a web application. (this questions is not we related.. just giving some background to the problem) I populate a number of fields in a bean back in my business logic as Decimals. Then going up a level I do all the data manipulate I need to for display purposes and store the values as a String inside my bean. Then I pass that bean on to my jsp and it displays my values....
Now the problem I just realized I have is that in some cases the decimal values are larger then 8 digits in length. So when I convert to a string by saying decimalVariable+""
I end up with an exponential value.
There are several solutions to this... but the problem is that I have thousands of places this is being done... so instead of going in and changing every decimal to a bigDecimal or going in and changing the way I convert to a string in each place, I wanted to know if I could change the toString method for Decimal.. and how to go about doing that...

As far as being bad code... I'm keeping my mouth shut on that one.. because I've been known to do the same thing.. I just can't believe we have made it so far
into development without this being brought to anyone's attention.Didn't mean to offend you on the bad code. :) I thought the same ("how did it go so long?") when I found our problem (and many other problems in our code).
So my options are pretty much
1. change all double to BigDecimal
2. use numberFormatter anywhere it is being
converted to a string... or actually anywhere where
the number can possible be longer then 7 characters
long....Use a number formatter (such as DecimalFormat) everywhere. No need to figure out whether it is needed in each case.
I think the best solution would be to switch to BigDecimal.. but that would take a MAJOR amount of
work... I think there are around 6K java files in this project... probably every single one of them uses a double somewhere in the class...
hmmm July 1st Beta test deadline might be hard to meet :)Same reason why we're stuck on Java 1.3.1 at work...deadlines and possible regression issues. :(

Strange double buffering bug

Hi all,
I have stumbled on strange swing behavior on Windows, most probably connected to double buffering introduced in java 6.
Once in a while Windows stops redrawing my JFrame. From the java side everything seems ok - all the components are painted (that is, all native methods called), EventQueue normally processed by EDT, but repainted GUI is not shown on the screen. Note that OS has the repainted info - if I cover part of the application window with another window (e.g. explorer), and hid it back, the part that was covered is repainted. This happens even if I have java app halted on debug, so no other java actions can cause this repaint - OS has to have this image, it just does not put it on the screen. When I minimize/maximize the app, everything goes back to normal.
Note that I can normally operate the app "as if" it was painted - I can change tabs, click buttons (even though I can't see them), and results of these actions are painted by java to some offscreen buffer, but are only shown when I cover/uncover my app with another window, or min/max it. Min/Maxing ends this strange state and further repaints are shown normally.
Did any of you have this kind of problem? Any idea how to approach/resolve it or what can be the cause?
Java is 1.6.20, I have seen the behavior on Windows XP, Vista and 2008. It is not reproducible, it just happens sometimes. I haven't seen that on Java 5. Turning off double buffering resolves that, but is not feasible due to degraded user experience.
Thanks in advance for your help!
Jakub

Thanks for your help so far, perhabs this is something with the driver, but I use fairly generic windows distribution.
EDT is not hosed, it is processing events normally (I checked that on debug step-by-step). We do not override any paint methods, and this is rather something on different level - it is not "a component not being repainted" it is "everything is repainted, but not shown on screen". Including tabbedPane's tab changes, menu display, etc. I can even see cursor changing into carret when I hover over "not shown" textfield.
Displaying and then disposing of modal dialog also fixes the state, as do resizing of the JFrame.

Airport problems (bug report)

To put "the bottom-line up front", I'd like to know if anyone can put me in contact with Apple's Airport software engineers (or can forward this to them so a bug fix can be released). I have composed as detailed of a description of the bug as possible and all my attempted fixes.
I've been having problems (for some time now) with my airport connection dying at seemingly random times, but most often within 5 minutes of re-booting. The indicator on the menu bar will show full signal, but I will not be able to even ping my router.
This was not an issue until I installed Airport Update 4.2 (back in September). Shortly thereafter, I suspected the update was the problem, and did a complete re-install minus that update (and the ones reliant on it). Things then worked with no problems. I got brave and installed the update (in November) and since then the problems returned. I so far have not been willing to undertake another complete re-install.
This is not an issue on my Jaguar partition, nor is it on a G4 that has a wired connection to the router, nor is it one on my brother's Powerbook G4, (running Tiger on a wireless connection). Running Fix Permissions and Fix Disk from Disk Utility has no effect, (including single-user boot with fsck). Resetting the router (and cable modem) has no effect.
3rd-party software is ruled out. None was installed during my initial Panther installation when I first noticed the problem. Upgrading to Tiger is currently beyond my monetary means.
For information, my router is a Linksys (802.11b) model BEFW11S4.

hi there--
your best bet for wanting your information to be shared is to call apple technical support at 1-800-275-2273. you can give a detailed report to a tech support agent, who will pass it along to the powers that be. you could also request to speak to an upper tier agent. then the report will be more likely to be handed over to apple engineering.
