Apple today released MacBook Pro Software Update 1.1 which provides important bug fixes and improves stability with Motion 2 and Motion 3.
It is recommended for all 2.2/2.4GHz MacBook Pro models.
This update requires Mac OS X 10.4.9 or later.
MacBook Pro Software Update 1.1 is available via Sotware Update and also as a standalone installer.
More info and download link (14.7MB) here.
No one wants Motion sickness.
Strange that this is so specific for an application and hardware, wouldnt you want to just update the application, or the driver its causing a problem with?
now all we need is the firmware update to stop the fans from going crazy (lover 5000 RPM) when charging a depleted battery while putting any kind of load on the cpu…
Next you’ll be complaining the the units are too hot
I’ve got the 2.33 Ghz MBP and tried the software update. Nothing came up. Kinda weird.
Oh well.
My 2.4 MBP is rather hot. It’s way hotter than my old PB. It’s also about 10 times faster. I’ll take the heat thanks!
Just updated my 2.4Ghz MBP. Dashboard and expose feel smoother.
I don’t know why Apple just doesn’t label this as a graphics driver update. Motion 2 is extremely heavy on OpenGL, and if this update makes it better…it’s useful system wide, since Quartz Extreme, and Core Image need OpenGL acceleration as well…and they are quite heavy on it. This is further proven by the fact that expose and dashbord work much, much smoother now than they did…um…yesterday.
^ Oh, just to add…I don’t even have Motion 2 nor 3 installed…so why did this show up in the software update if I never had the app. Once again proves that this is a graphics driver update and has very little to do with Motion 2 or 3 (if it even does)
My understanding is that the last mbp software update completely broke motion on the new mbp. That is likely why we now have this 1.1 update
Feels snappier!
lol
“Dashboard and expose feel smoother.”
You probably meant ‘snappier’, right?
“You probably meant ‘snappier’, right?”
Well, if it means that it’s no longer laggy like it was…the yes.
If you think your MacBook Pro is running too hot, you can always install iCyclone: this app gives you full control over your fans (Apple defaults aren’t changed, so if you remove the app everything’s back to normal…)
It makes your MBP run a lot cooler, might be handy if you put it on your lap a lot

This is the second update in the last couple months that is specific to 2.2/2.4GHz MacBook Pro models, other then processor speed I wonder what the big differences are between those and the 2.33GHz model (which is what I own).
