I installed Lion using myHack on my ProBook 4530s and installed the 10.7.5 update combo using the ProBook and vanilla kernel of course. Then I copied R:A:W:X86's kernel and the DP2 Finder and removed the ATI kexts: it booted right up into 10.7.5!!!

If anyone has any ideas about my ATI Radeon HD 5670, they would be much appreciated! Neither the 10.7.5 ATI kexts nor the 10.7.0 ATI kexts nor the ATI kexts that work with 10.6.8 will work; I am stumped for the moment.

What the heck just happened? I just used a tool to clean up my Mac now my timezone is messed up. Localtime-Toggle.pkg is messed up, I tried running it again and no fix now. I used the mac cleaning tool OnyX for Lion. Also, I'm still having that stupid problem where I have to type in -legacy busratio=17 UsekernelCache=No npci=0x3000 PCIRootUID=0 GraphicsEnabler=Yes , each time I want to use my Mac side.


Also, on some websites I get broken pictures like next to my username Godofwar on osx86.co, why would that be?




EDIT: I don't recommend using the tool OnyX, I believe it screws up the hackintosh. It must try to set things up like a real mac when it cleans... Odd... Now I have to set things up again, and boy oh boy is it annoying to install Snow, than Lion and set everything up all over again for the billionth time. Lets hope this last time I have to set things up, next time I have to be more cautious about which programs I use on Hackintosh I guess?

Instant Idiot, did you check netkas site out? He does an awesome work with ATI drivers for OSX.

I have tried using ATY_Init.kext, but that doesn't completely work. It shows a garbled black and white display that flickers a bit when I move the mouse. (with the 10.7.5 ATI kexts) Getting closer!

Just updated from 10.7.2 to 10.7.3 now I lost my graphics card since the kexts I was using before I guess only worked on 10.7.2? Anyone know where I can get kexts or proper drivers for gtx 570 for 10.7.3? I tried googling but only came up with kexts for 10.7.3 580 gtx.


Edit: Solved

Wow, I can't believe this but the official Nvidia drivers actually work! 10.7.3 is working for me but it works the same weird way my 10.7.2 worked. It seems I have to shut off my computer incorrectly 3 times before the command -legacy busratio=17 UsekernelCache=No npci=0x3000 PCIRootUID=0 GraphicsEnabler=Yes to work... How strange, also I tried RAW's kernel and it didn't work with 10.7.2 or 10.7.3... I guess its only for 10.7.4? I think I'm afraid to even try to update to 10.7.4 because I heard most people haven't gotten that to work.

Wow, these official Nvidia drivers work better than the kexts I was using in 10.7.2!!! I noticed freezing in flash for a quick second on 10.7.2's kexts. But not on these ones, so far atleast... So, I guess 10.7.3 was worth the update after all


Rocket Launcher and Apps folder runs nicer. My apps folder is still weird looking on my dock tho, I can't change the appearance of my apps folder even with Ordinatore Plus. For some reason my apps folder took the appearance of my Address Book...

Screen shot of my hackintosh and its address book application apps folder:

good for you! Cheers to that! I just got my hackintosh to working with 10.7.4 last night and everything seems fine so far! With regards to your dock, have you tried changing it from the dock settings by clicking the apple logo?

@Godofwar: Right click on the Applications folder in the Dock and select "Display as Folder."

10.7.3 just punched me in the head really hard, what the heck is wrong with this update? I had my computer on for probably 10-15 hours and I got a freeze error at 11am in the morning and now my Mac side won't boot up. Why would this happen? Do I need a different boot command or is this a trap from NVIDIA drivers?

HAHAHA, weird stuff I installed Lion 10.7.2 again and this time I'm on the correct Chameleon Bootloader and I have no idea why because I didn't install any thing differently. This is very strange.

All the other times I installed the boot loader for Chameleon for Lion I would get a black Chameleon Bootloader instead of the official gray background boot loader with the Chameleon.

Edit: I know what I did differently, I unclicked the bootloader that comes with Itako's L2. So it's not even the bootloader I installed on the LION hd, but the bootloader that comes with Itako's L2. Still bothers me I notice slow downs on 10.7.2 with hacked 570 drivers. I don't know why...

Any solution for the Trash Can not deleting certain stuff? I remember having this glitch on Snow Leopard before but don't believe I solved it. I don't know how this glitch came back.


Edit: Something weird happened again, So I was on my Mac side for awhile yesterday and I went to bed at 5am left mac side on work up around 4:30pm, came down stairs after brushing teeth and seen my mac side crashed at 4:30pm(same thing that happen when I was on 10.7.3), but this this time my Mac side on 10.7.2 worked fine. I hope this crashing stuff in time periods of me not doing anything for 11-12 hours on it don't end up hurting my cpu or graphics card.
