  • I've run 10.2 since last tuesday. While I'm still having some snags in it, it's really quite amazing.

    You mentioned LiteSwitchX. I was just bemoaning to a friend of mine that LiteSwitchX wasn't working. It loads, and you can bind it to option-tab, or ctrl-tab, but 1.0.1 can't punch through the 10.2 keybindings and bind to command-tab. I told him it was the thing I missed most.

    He pointed out to me that Apple fixed the one thing in Jaguar that made LiteSwitchX a necessity in 10.1.5, the order of apps when

    • The order isn't quite "fixed". It goes to the previous app, but then continues on it's merry trip left-to-right along the dock. This is really dumb, because with extreme regularity the second application you tab onto is the current one.

      I'm itching for LiteSwitchX to work again.
  • The latest Wireless Driver release (beta4) works just fine with 10.2 once you've removed some some bad lines from the drivers .plist as the new kextload is more strict.
