After that, I backed up some kexts and data to be safe and then got the 10.5.6 Update from Software Update (not the ASU; I got an error every time I tried).

After restart, it booted! I had to replace AppleSMBIOS.kext with my old kext because About This Mac would force a logout, but that all I needed to do to get 10.5.6 working for me

Hi i followed the above example with the Voodoo kernel in place .... using Apple update .. i am than prompted to restart to complete update to 10.5.6 ...then the screen changes to the default empty desktop (the one you get after a fresh install) even through i have changed the desktop image, then it just hangs until i power the thing off manually ... this now happens any time i try to log out and power down...

after forced power down everything boots up fine again...

anyone have any pointers....
