Logitech Control Center for the Mac – OSX

Saturday, May 19th, 2012

OK, so for some reason I keep forgetting this. The Mac OSX Logitech control center screws up everything on the Mac. I had just installed it again last weekend and my hot corners stopped working, sub-menus required me to hold down the left click to stay active, and the only way the screen saver would work was based on inactivity timeout.

In hot corner (set for screen saver) or in screen saver test in System Preferences, the screen saver will start for a second or two then stop and return you to the main screen. I played around with it for a week or so then remembered that the Logitech Control Center had caused this exact same issue under Leopard and Snow Leopard. Well seems as though it’s still not fixed. I tried the latest 3.51 this time and it still screwed up the screen saver. If you are having a similar issue go to your Applications-utilities folder and uninstall LCC (Logitech Control Center).

RootKeeper, Droid X2, Root, and the 1.3.418 update

Saturday, May 12th, 2012

If someone out there has a Droid X2 that may be rooted and the cell provider is trying to push an update on you. Look in the market for an app called Voodoo OTA RootKeeper.

First you would tell it to ‘backup su’ (then a checkbox will be next to the line that says “Protected su copy available”). Then perform a temp un-root, Allow the update to install. When android says the update was successful, launch Voodoo OTA RootKeeper again and tell it to restore/reroot the phone.

Easy as pie…
