Hi. I registered on this forum just to reply on this topic.

I've got Lion 10.7.2 running on AMD. 32-bit only though...
I installed it to another partition from my Snow Leopard, replaced the kernel, added kexts and replaced the Finder.app with the one from DP2.

My boot flags: -legacy arch=i386 npci=0x3000
I use Bronzovka's kernel V4. The system hasn't crashed even single time in few days.
Only problem I've found is with Logic Pro 9, it crashes for some unknown reason...

But now I'm interested in 64-bit. I have Phenom II 965. I've read few pages of this topic and it seems to be pretty damn hard to get the kernel running in 64. So, what blocks the 64 bit? Is the kernel compiled only for 32/i386?
Your CPU is the problem why 64 bit will not work.
To run 64 bit kernel your CPU has to support SSSE3 instructions, and yours doesn´t support that.
So if you like to run 64 bit (userland, not kernelmode) you have to stay on Snow Leopard.

Don´t know it for sure (because i don´t know the error log), but much apple software need SSSE3 instructions too (like Final Cut X).
And i could imagine thats the same for logic but to be sure you have to post the log.

Yea, I know that. I was just wondering if someone could write SSSE3 emulator?

I'm also interested in kernel developing, just grabbed XCode 4.2 on my SL and compiled Lion XNU with AMD patches...
Still no boot, but its fun to take a look at the source of the kernel.


EDIT: Seems like the SSSE3 instructions are all in the commpage, which is written in Assembly...
Am I right, someone who actually knows something, could you confirm this?

Hi Jungs,
einen Emulator finde ich Prima !!!
Ich habe im Internet gesucht und bin auf ein paar ältere Webseiten (osx86.co › InfiniteMac und insaneleymac) aufmerksam geworden. Es ging um die ersten SSE Emulationen für 10.4 daraufhin habe ich das Thema weiter verfolgt und habe diese Seiten gefunden
http://developer.amd.com/archive/cpu...s/default.aspx und http://sseplus.sourceforge.net/ vielleicht kann R:A:W:X86 oder bronzovka es irgendwie Sinnvoll nutzen, eventuell um einen geeigneten AMD Kernel Patch zu realisieren?

Auf der Seite ist unter download ein Tool , das die Daten der CPU einliest, es wird auch von einem SSEPlus Emulator geschrieben?, leider habe ich davon null Ahnung, bitte nicht böse auf mich sein.

Desweiteren habe ich hier noch ein paar AMD Phenom II Binäar-Dateien siehe Link

http://www.amd64.org/index.php?id=50...-01-17.tar.asc


Und hier noch die xnu-1699.26.8.tar.gz hier


Für 10.4. war es doch Möglich einen SSE3 emulator zu realisieren warum nicht jetzt für LION einen SSSE3 Emulator?

Was ist mit "SSE-Plus" ? das ist doch in der Lage einen SSSE3 zu emulieren?
Und was ist mit EM64T???????

Kann Jemand meine Fragen beantworten?
Mainboard:
GA-990FXA-UD3
Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller
Realtek High Definition Audio
CPU: AMD Phenom II X6 1100T
RAM: 16 GB Corsair DDR3 1600 C9
NVIDIA Geforce GTX 550 TI 3072 MB
DVD SATA
HDD:
Segate 2 TB
WD 320 GB
WD 500 GB
-----------------------------------------------------
Windows 7 Ultimate 64-Bit
Snow Leopard 10.6.8
Lion 10.7.2
Lion 10.7.4

HOW-TO look here

Hi all,

I've been running 10.7.4 on my AMD system for a while now - 32 bit of course, but it's nice and stable. I have one issue that is killing me, I can't get Adobe Flash to work... yep, all installed and I've tried with different browsers but all I get is audio and a white or black screen, no video.

Any ideas?

try to install firefox and disable the hardware acceleration from adobe.
to do this just click right inside a flash video, select settings and uncheck "enable hardware acceleration" this should change the setting over all browsers.

this helped me to get flash working! report back please.

Thanks for the reply mate. Problem is that when I right click Settings... nothing happens, no settings box pops up! Global Settings... works, but not Settings...
Doesn't matter what browser I use, I get the same result. Nothing pops up.

Any other ideas?

Umm, sounds good. Can you recommend one? I've got a Gigabyte ATI 6850 (GV-R685OC-1GD)

Here's my current extract from System Information:

ATI Radeon HD 6xxx:

Chipset Model: ATI Radeon HD 6xxx
Type: GPU
Bus: PCIe
PCIe Lane Width: x16
VRAM (Total): 1024 MB
Vendor: ATI (0x1002)
Device ID: 0x6739
Revision ID: 0x0000

Anyone recommend an alternative ATI kext?

Yea. I am also looking forward to these.
The so far leaked information on Vishera sounds very promissing.

Specialy thosen 83*0 with 95W TDP / 16MB cache could earn AMD a good market position one more time, if sold for a reasonable price.

In fact, i have this problem with my atom netbook too. Do iCloud/Facetime work only with vanilla kernel, perhaps?
Actualy iCloud doesn't work on my Xeon Workstation too.
Might be fixable, but I haven't ever cared any further about these programs, as I am not interested in using them anyway...

Does not look like if there is someone, with the necessary skills, who's currently into this..

Higly recommended not to use any extra kext.
The HD6850 should work ootb.
