Do not run an old version of Double Command on Leopard

panic(cpu 0 caller 0x001A7BED): Kernel trap at 0x341adbfc, type 14=page fault, registers: ... Backtrace continues...

Yes its a panic, but it only occurred for me when i tried to restart (not shutdown ;-) the machine, which is why it took me so long to realize that trying to run an old version of Double Command on Leopard is a bad idea — i simply had no need for a reboot until the recent quicktime patch.

Symptoms: you hit restart, Screen is blank, HDD is still spinning, you get a kernel crash report after the next boot.

DoubleCommand 1.6.6b1 is available to be tested on Leopard and while i did not yet tried whether it works as expected at least i can reboot without a panic again. ;-)

Anyway if this hits you, try removing the following directories: /Library/PreferencePanes/DoubleCommandPreferences.prefPane /Library/StartupItems/DoubleCommand
