I *REALLY NEED* OpenOffice to work and not go down. I'm not kidding, I absolutely must have OpenOffice to work without patches, etc... Anyone?

Well, I did a clean reinstall of my entire system (just because its been a while) before upgrading to 10.2.8, but after I reinstalled X11, it and OpenOffice.org worked fine. If you just update to 10.2.8 without wiping the system, you shouldn't even need to reinstall X11, but if for some reason it doesn't work, a reinstall should fix it.

I renamed the AppleGMACEthernet.kext folder and removed it from System/Library/Extensions and replaced as suggested with one from another machine and I seem to be back on line. THANKS!!!!!!

I think its been taken down because of all the reported issues. Ive been doing research on it here at my ITS job, and this is what im seeing. I cant get any of my systems here to pull the update down.

Apple removed 10.2.8. Must be a lot of problems/complaints.
I have it on both a Powerbook and desktop and have no problems so far.

yea, i'm glad i got it since it seems to have fixed an issue for me with no bad things yet. i would guess that apple will fix it and rerelease soon though.

I downloaded it last night and wanted to download the standalone installer but it's been pulled as you guys have said. Wonder if Apple will release an update for us who already have installed it? I haven't had any problems and I've installed it on my Lombard powerbook and my wife's iBook 800mhz
Someone mentioned that their display on an iMac went grainy that's because you display is set on thousand colors, happened to my Lombard as well after the update, not the first time either. Wonder why that happens
