Post hardware report

I have acer aspire 5520 and i was able to install from kalyway dvd installer, though some things do not work yet

Yes. I works really good. Some issues though with the video accelleration. But everything else work great.

I just installed 10.5.6 from IDENEB, plus the Athero.kext file form Leo. this enables the athero wireless..the wired is nativly recognized by OSX.

Good luck.

@U2DesireJust wondering if anyone managed to get Leopard working on this Laptop? I've tried a couple of builds but haven't had any real success. Damn sure wish I would have learned of this OSX86 Project before buying this machine almost 2 years ago. Thanks, U2Desire

Acer AS5103 ATi X1300

I have managed to install Leopard-10.5.2-AMD-EFI-Rev2 on my 5103 and it installs perfectly, but when it re-boots after installation, all i get is a flashing cursor in the top left of screen. Can anyone help please.
