Snow Leopard kexts
 
Any kexts like natit or anything patched/custom out already?

My patched Intel NATIT works in Snow, so I'm guessing so :)

Do you mean kext from your previous Leo install?

Dont they have to be 64bit coded?

yeah you're right.
some of the old kexts do work :)

You need 64 bit kexts when you run kernel in 64bit mode

at least the aty_init kext worked under 64bit mode

Wow really? Including the injectors, hdaenablers and so on? So most of the hackintosh kexts we have now are worthless for Snow?
Is there a list of known 64-bit capable kexts?
I'm afraid we would be running Snow in 32 bits for a loooooong time... :'(
Not sure if we would be missing to much though...

i didnt test THAT much, but in my macbook pro, 64 and 32 bit kernel mode didnt show a noticeable diference (i only booted in 64 bit mode twice only).

on my pc, i couldnt make snow leopard work yet :(

yes 64bit kernel require 64bit kext and only 64 bit kext,the application may be 32 or 64 but kernel extension with 64bit kernel must be 64.
althought native 10.6 kext is hybrid 32+64+10.6 sdk so their run on 32 and 64 but only on 10.6
64bit snow is no problem in most case to simply change architecture and recompile source.the are some disadvantages with OSBundleLibraries some of this i replace value.
But you must have source and where can it get.It's good to some of hackintosh team use opensource.
I recompile many source kext to 64bit mode,but now i don't find hdaenabler source and gutu seems ignore me nothink anwer my questions.
seems no programmers interested in snow leopard.
