System locks up after installation 
- Version: 1.3, 6/19/2009 02:57PM PST

It is very consistent: I close the lid, come back in 10 minutes and there is not response from the system except that screen shows the state of the screen when I closed it.
No cursor. No response to any key.
Can only turn off and turn on.
For me, this firmware update is a disaster.
Now, if I can only find a way to back it out.
Blessings to those that do not have problems.

Does it work OK with 'Fan Control?' - Version: 1.3, 5/29/2009 03:39AM PST

Just wondering if anyone using Lobotomo Software's free Fan Control has applied this firmware update...and if Fan Control still works OK.

Downloaded and installed quickly without incident.
System *seems* to go for longer periods without the fan kicking on. That is completely subjective, though.

After the update I'm finding the programs in my MS Office (running in Rosetta) crash for weird reasons - you try to close Word and it still says it's open in the dock - try to change font color in Entourage and when you pull the drop down menu it closes Entourage completely...

Still whines - Version: 1.0, 5/16/2006 05:59PM PST

Mine whined before... still whines after. I still haven't installed the Keyboard Update (well, I did, but unistalled - b/c they'd made all whine fixes not work). Perhaps the Keyboard Updater AND this gets rid of the whine? I doubt it...

I'm not entirely sure what this does, my MacBook Pro has never been a "Whiner," anyone care to explain the purpose of this update?

Was advised by Apple support to:
Remove the ethernet driver from the "Network" preference panel (this is on the left side of the panel - remove using the '-' key)
Re-add the ethernet driver (using the "+" key) and make sure that it is active (it may say "not connected" but it is still 'active')
Close the preference panels and restart just to make sure that all the software connections are made.
Problem went away for me.
