AMD sysenter trap patch (10.6.4)

This will fully enable 32bits apps under 64bit mode on most Qoopz/Qoopz+AnV kernels.
I have used maxxuss patcher to change the bytes (manual lookup + writing of patch).
It also includes pre-patched binaries.
Enjoy and let me know if it works well after patching (it should)

I tried this on my installation for productive usage (running 10.6.4 + 10.4.0 legacy kernel released by nawcom + patched CPUIDs)...

All in all it seems to be working fine, but I am having trouble with iTunes; Screenshot:



...any way to have this fixed without restoring the original files?

///Edit:

Apparently working properly in combination with your Rel4 Kernel, only...

However it's now working all fine; Finally Snowkitty is 64-Bit address-space capable on AMD without issues.

Thanks for sharing this Andy, I hope we will see this beeing integrated into the Kernel soon.

applyied the patch, using nawcom kernel, skype itunes not work, using your kernel, everything works, but kinda in the strange way.. sometimes it looks to be a bit slower than just 32bit system.
some apps make longer time to boot, compared to just 32bit system. graphics is kinda glitchy sometimes, you can feel it jus playing with expose. even google earth is working much slower... anyways im so thankful for your work

Run QuickTime in 32-bit mode. When you run it's x64 version it assumes that your CPU has SSSE3 instruction set (which is not present on AMD cpus yet), and uses these instructions for decoding video.
Try the same with Starcraft, it may have some intro that is played with QT's codec, so it doesn't work in x64 mode.

Gone Linux.

Front Row doesn't work
And quicktime works only in 32bit, in 64 bit mode, Quicktime X throws a EXC_BAD_INSTRUCTION (SIGILL)
Maybe is because AMD hasn't got SSSE3.
And iTunes it's stopping itself

Sorry for my bad english
Cheers!

I've been testing this patch and your latest kernel since yesterday and it seems to be working great, though I have to boot with arch=i386 and patcher_opts=2 or I get a kp or instant reboot. So far I could only test after effects cs5 and media encoder and both of them are running with no issue at all.

Thank you Andy for all your work, we (the AMD bunch) are very gratefull for all your efforts, at last a working x64 snow leopard!!


@davisin666: don't patch /system/library/coreservices/front row.app/contents/macos/front row and it will work as it should.

But Front Row it's rarely used

no one experiencing a bit slower system? even geekbench shows lower score than before, and it feels like slower...and not that smooth graphics experience like before.
