Just saw this posted on InsanlyMac and thought to share it here.
This is based on Voodoo 2 Alpha 3, no AMD support!
Hi guys.
10.5.8 sources are out. I checked them and the differences in XNU are minimal. Of all the patched files, only one has some code added and as far as this noob here can understand, nothing that can conflict with the actual patches was changed. Also, only one of the tools needed to compile the kernel was updated (IOKitUser-388.53.30.tar.gz). So, i gave a try at updating the existing "Voodoo 2 alpha3" to 9.8 (xnu-1228.15.4). This was 99% copy/paste/replace.. anything more would be to much for me!
As far as i can see, everything is working normally in my system so, i decided to share this with you until the team releases an update.
There's no extra "voodoo" in this kernel! Nothing added, nothing removed! If something didn't worked for you before, will not work now. If something works better it's Apple's fault. If you get some new problem, also blame Apple.
Thanks fly out to the Voodoo team!
Without the work you guys done and shared with us, i could never do this.
p.s.: Don't ask me for diff file because i don't know how to do it and really, it would only show you my name and Apple's updates.
Just sharing...
EDIT: i will remove this kernel as soon as the Voodoo team releases an update.
EDIT: did a little update to the kernel, to be more respectful to the team's work. Changed name and kernel panic message.
