Hi, that helps a little. It would be good to know for certain what's being
started by
launchd though, ie:
ls -l /Library/LaunchDaemons /Library/LaunchAgents
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here is another version of the programs that (hopefully) addresses
the problem more conveniently: <http://www.argyllcms.com/osxtools.tgz>
To see if they work, you'll need to initially run them as root, ie.:
sudo spotread
since the newer X-Rite driver daemons are running as root, and a normal
user process can't stop them.
If that works, the need to use sudo can be removed by modifying
the X-Rite daemons to run as your user account, by adding the appropriate
tag to the .plist file.
For the ColorMunki for instance, you would need to:
To do this you need to edit the script that controls the X-Rite Daemon.
cp /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.xrite.device.colormunki.plist temp.plist
open temp.plist
and add one child below the root:
_Item_ _Type_ _Value_
UserName string myusername
where "myusername" is your username, and save the file. You then need to copy
the modified file back:
sudo cp temp.plist /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.xrite.device.colormunki.plist
temp.plist
You will then need to restart the machine for this change to take effect, or
invoke the following commands:
sudo launchctl unload
/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.xrite.device.colormunki.plist
sudo launchctl load /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.xrite.device.colormunki.plist
I don't currently know what the .plist file associated with the EyeOne driver
is, but the "ls -l /Library/LaunchDaemons" may provide the answer.
