The combo updater updates the same files as the delta, and a lot more files as well. However, if I remember how things worked in the past, the combo is created first, then the smaller delta. I suspect pacifist was just encountering different creation dates.
My question is, unless you were having problems with the delta update... why did you download the combo version?

It is not a issue of tampering - Joel Schmidt
ahhh, I must have missed that post. That's cool. Pacifist is not really a good program to use with OS software. mixing different versions of files is not a good idea as it can cause more problems then solve them. In this case, Apple made more changes to the nVidia extensions than it did to the ATI ones (or I assume they did. no one in my appleseed group posted any changes or improvements on ATI hardware). If you were having issues, a better attempt to fix them would have been to reset your pram and nvram.Friday, December 17 2004 @ 12:30 PM PST

As described in an earlier post, the delta update seemed to have introduced some audio and video annoyances. AFAIK, sometimes a subsequent "combo" install can fix problems, so that's what I'll try (reverting to 10.3.6 versions of ATI kexts and the OpenGL framework (via Pacifist) didn't help video matters, BTW).Reply to This
