I was so keen to get rid of the bugs in 10.5(.1) that I upgraded immediately that the SU showed 10.5.2. was available. Then I came for a look at VT to see that the only available version was for Intel and not PPC. Maybe that's why after a huge download and slow installation I find little has changed. Maybe I just haven't found out how to murder those horrible stacks that I heard 10.5.2. was supposed to allow!

Intel only? - BradMacPro

No. It installed on my Dual 2.0 GHz Power Mac G5.

Intel only? - mr. poopie pants

I think that the VersionTracker admins just copied the release notes from an Intel build of the update. So, some of the mentioned fixes only apply to Intel Macs. I would imagine that there is a PPC list of fixes as well that just wasn't listed on VersionTracker. In any case, the update works fine on BOTH Intel and PPC, as have ALL OS updates since the Intel macs were introduced.
