Anyway, I placed the kext you gave me in /S/L/E, then chmod and chown it and loaded it with kextload. This is what I got in system Console:

Code:

I'm not sure if it is what you wanted

PS I wouldn't advise using KextHelper in Snow Leopard - it doesn't work well. You might want to test KextWizard instead (I won't post a link 'cos I'm not sure if it is permitted :P)
did the problem still persist?
is that the only message logged for the kext? and after that your system starts slowing down?

PS, yeah, kexthelper freeze on exit that it requires force quitting, though i didn't bother looking for another since the app still does what it should do . Anyway thank you for the advice, I'll try the app you mentioned and update the first post.
