Although just everything works right now - I would not even know about that PlugSuit if I wouldn't have looked into the Console. I still see the errors about PlugSuit every 10 seconds in the Console log. Ok, after killing randomly some other processes, I made my system mostly unuseable so I were forced to restart. Those who wondered about the WLAN symbol (what I have written earlier, where I initially thought it might be related), this is what I have found in the Console: 28.06.10 13:54:24 airportd trace: Ĭom.: .summaryĬom.: AutoJoinSuccessĬom.: E637229A-E004-44C8-9F8B-0845B23CD93D I wonder a bit what that is (I guess something I have installed at some time, don't remember anymore, at least a year ago) and why that is causing troubles right now. It sends and receives Open Sound Control messages over a Wi-Fi network using the UDP. I also looked at the Console logs and every 10 seconds, I am getting this entry: 28.06.10 22:32:46 .501 () Throttling respawn: Will start in 10 secondsĢ8.06.10 22:29:56 .501 () posix_spawn('/Users/az/Library/PreferencePanes/PlugSuit.prefPane/Contents/Resources/PlugSuit Agent.app/Contents/MacOS/PlugSuit Agent'. Though, I am curious, what process is it? Does someone know? (And then I maybe would just restart that process instead of my whole machine - everything else is fine and I hate restarts.) I'm quite sure it would work again after a restart or even a relogin and that the process which is responsible for it just crashed. Audio itself works fine though, I am just right now playing some music in iTunes.

And also, the system settings dialog loads fine but when I click on the sound settings, it crashes/freezes. For example the 'About My Mac.' menu entry doesn't work. volume up/down/mute) aren't working right now - along with a few other things.
