It has proved that this had been the right decission.
If the source would not have been released back then, the development of the Voodoo Kernel would have never been achieved and AMD OSx86 would be already dead for a long time now...
But still I do understand him.
If I would have put a lot of work in to a Kernel patch, I would not want some tonymac like asshole to relabel it without giving any credits either.
Nevertheless I hope my argumentation will be heared...
Good to hear someone has it.
My FX-4100 is on it's way and my Phenom II just been put for sale on eBay.
I am pretty sure to get it fully working.
Would be to bad if some nasty Kernel depencies would end this with the release of some future system update...

Wow... I have a lot to catch on.... But just to share, I was out of the hack os x and when I came back and started logging in to the hack os x sites I noticed I was banned from a certain site, for no reason, not sure why either (but u mentioned the site)...... Anyways, that out of the way and long story short, I sold my i3 and upgraded my old AMD machine from Athlon64 X2 6000+ to Phenom II X4 940 (so I could compile XCode faster, and YES, it is much faster!!!) so I decided to check if Lion + AMD was a go and apparently is! I would like to try this out, but I have a ***LOT*** of catching up. Maybe if someone would answer a few questions so I don't have to read 50+ pages...
My CPU (per CPU-X on 10.6.8) is Family 16 Model 4 (I will boot into Windows 7 and run CPU-Z in a few to confirm it is correct. Has the kernel been fixed to support this CPU? Also I have the Lion 10.7.4 Combo Update from Apple, can I install this from 10.6.8?
Thanks!
EDIT: I confirmed the Model is correct. Family is F
