Apparently software update can't find it when the 10.5.2 update beachballs your mac mini indefinitely. Fortunately it only took 2 reboots to get 10.5.2 to install on the MacBook.

If you just let it do it's thing it reboots twice on its own during the install. For all users who have yet to update - don't touch your computer during the process! Just let it do it's thing! :-)

Yeah, that doesn't help those of us who had it reboot twice and then refuse to boot again safe mode or otherwise.

Fantastic, my computer won't turn back on. Verbose mode restarts the computer too fast to read anything.

'Translucent Menu Bar' checkbox in Desktop & Screen Saver preference pane.

maybe i'm just blind, but i don't see that checkbox in my preference pane
Daan said 7:51PM on 2-11-2008
This was updated in the 10.5.2 update already, and is not specific to this update
Chris said 12:40AM on 2-12-2008
The option for the menu bar IS SPECIFIC TO THIS UPDATE. The option doe NOT appear until this additional update is applied.

I've just finished installing 10.5.2, I'm currently downloading the Graphics Update and the translucent menu checkbox is showing up for me.
David said 7:39PM on 2-11-2008
They released this update at the same time as 10.5.2. You have to install 10.5.2 first for it to show up though as this update requires 10.5.2

Yeah Scott, you're far too quick to hate on Apple. This update doesn't show up until after you install 10.5.2. As soon as my computer rebooted from installing the update my Software Update was open and bouncing to alert me of the additional update available.
Scott McNulty said 12:20AM on 2-12-2008
Alex, my problem isn't with the update, but rather the lack of release notes.
apeguero said 8:01PM on 2-11-2008
I only wish this update would have some sort of patch for MacPros from last year to allow them to work with the new 8800 Nvidia cards.

What is this update exactly? A lot of files are changed in the /System/Library/Extensions directory (ie display drivers), and in the /usr/share/man/man3/ directory (ie manual (man) pages).

My guess is just a whole package of firmware updates from the manufacturers of Apple supported video chipsets.
Andy said 8:09PM on 2-11-2008
This update package was originally included with 10.5.2 developers builds, but later provided as a separate update on the ADC site. It is not a 'post 10.5.2' update.

Seems to me my window animations and dock movement etc are alot smoother, this was the only thing that ever disappointed me about leopard, was that it was choppy compared to Tiger, but now even with 2 displays expose is beautiful again :D

I don't know if it was this or 10.5.2, but I think it turned on the ambient light sensor on my MBP. Freaked me out at first -- I thought my display was dying.

Not only can I confirm that this happened to me, I can also confirm that I was also freaked out.
Barry said 9:01PM on 2-11-2008
On my intel imac, the graphic update smoothed the windows animations out. Been kind of choppy since installing Leopard last week, and was still choppy with 10.5.2-- but this update has fixed that! Update went very smoothly
