Great Job Zephyroth on this.
But I have no use for it now As I am running retail on AMD without patching and running 64 bit too

Great release none the less

Well thats nice BHAST but since no one is making the new voodoo kernel available except to the testers, you seem to be one of the few who has it. I just want to say thanks for pointing that out again and again (yes over at your site as well). Maybe you can help shed a little light on this new kernel.

Deleted pref file.

Next error:
http://i38.tinypic.com/2rgj79v.png

Then program freezes with this message:
http://i35.tinypic.com/b82wwp.png

Then only Force Quit can close it.

It should cancel update check if internet is not responding for x seconds.

And it wont accept that I have no password when it goes to patch files. If I leave password field blank it says "password invalid". I have no password, please accept "".

Is there anyway to change this back to normal?

Delete "Icon" file from "Downloads" folder.

Note: It's hidden file.

Bhast, having the latest voodoo kernel makes patching cpuids useless but my app is still useable for patching kexts or modifying the kexts inside a package.

The latest voodoo kernel support every AMD cpus ? Even Athlon XP ?
If yes then I can prolly remove the code for detecting and patching cpuids ... Tell me.

Personnaly I dont like the voodoo kernel. My system cannot sleep, sometimes it doesn't even reboot ...

I'm not an expert or a real programmer. If you think my app is useless then ... I don't care. My goal is to learn and share my knowledge/experience for those who are interested.

I will try to correct all errors related to the preferences and put, again, a new version of my app.

I hope everyone still appreciate my "work".

:)

Nah, don't do that...

Maybe make it optional?

IMO, even if Voodoo supports all AMD processors, your app is still far from useless.

Voodoo should make retail AMD installs a breeze but the thing I'm not clear on is whether Voodoo does the "on-the-fly" patching once as needed, or whether it just does it constantly, sounds like it does it constantly? Maybe bhast could chime in on that...

Personally, I would rather not have the kernel doing any extra lifting that it doesn't have to. I'm sure the performance hit, if any, isn't noticeable but still...

I like Zephy releases.

Keep up the good work.

The new (again ....) version is coming:

ChangeLog:

- An option to check/not check for cpuids has been added
- Fixed an error in the code which made some recreated packages unuseable
- Fixed an error while saving the log
- Preferences list is now created if needed (same thing for each field)

I you want something else to be added just tell me.
