serialWrite() on powerbook?

hi
did anyone did a successful serialWrite() on os x 10.3? the serial input works great. but the external device does not get any signals from proce55ing. i am trying to send init signals to a leica dmc-sx 3d-compass. it worked with director and serialXtra.
the os x console put that error message when i use startSerial():
malloc[758]: Deallocation of a pointer not malloced: 0xe1d8f14; This could be a double free(), or free() called with the middle of an allocated block; Try setting environment variable MallocHelp to see tools to help debug
regards
bjoern

uhh... sounds a bit odd!
anyway, just to make sure, you write above that you use startSerial() ... maybe that's the error, you should use beginSerial:
http://www.proce55ing.net/reference/serial/beginSerial_.html
(or maybe it was just a typo!) - anyway, please post a stripped down version of the code that causes the problem and I'll give it a go on my Mac.
...but to answer your question, yes, I have had plenty of success with using serialWrite().
