10.5.2

Here's a nice bug with the 10.5.2 and Leopard Graphics update -

I have a Powerbook G4, 1.5GHz, 1.25GB RAM. Apple's DVD-player worked great with 10.5.1. After installing 10.5.2, DVD-player still worked fine. Then came the Leopard Graphics Update. Not only does DVD-player not work, but it locks up the machine every time. There is no way to force the program to quit, the system must be hard reset.

Interestingly, if there is a DVD in the drive, the DVD plays, as I can hear the drive working AND the soundtrack of the DVD. But there is no DVD image, just the desktop as it was when DVD player started, and, of course, the wondrous spinning beach ball. The result is the same if no DVD is in the drive.

Apparently, I'm not the only one. I can only hope that Apple issues a fix soon.

BTW - DVD's play fine using VLC, but that doesn't fix the problem.
