Confirmed. Time to make legacy kernel 11.0 64-bit exclusive.

I saw on apple´s open source that there is the source for the libunwind for lion.
Should be perfect for a custom dyld i think!!!

H.264 and Quicktime

Is there any way i can fix H.264 and Quicktime in 64 bit mode on an AMD procesor?? Anything i can do with amd_insn_patcher or should i just give up and go back to 32 bit mode??

You will need to run QuickTime in 32-bit mode if your processor does not have SSSE3 support.

I have an AMD Athlon 64 X2 just like you, and they support sse3.. I have no idea why quictime crashes when playing .mov and .mp4 files, but only in 64 bit mode..

I ve read somewhere that i need to manually patch quicktimecomponents and h264scalar, thats why i m asking if some1 else managed to get it to work?

I wish i bought that intel processor instead AMD

SSE3 != SSSE3
The amd_insn_patcher just removes those nasty SYSENTER traps, code signatutres... that prevent 32-Bit only Apps to work on 64-Bit mode AMD systems.
It is not going to emulate any Intel exclusive instructions.
You do not have to lunch the -legacy mode again, just run Quiktime 32-Bit only.

btw: VLC rules.

To fix preview crash, you need to remove the x86_64 part of Finder, so, open terminal and type:

Code:
sudo cp /System/Library/CoreServices/Finder.app/Contents/MacOS/Finder /System/Library/CoreServices/Finder.app/Contents/MacOS/Finder_bak
sudo ditto -arch i386 /System/Library/CoreServices/Finder.app/Contents/MacOS/Finder /System/Library/CoreServices/Finder.app/Contents/MacOS/Finder_i386
sudo mv -f /System/Library/CoreServices/Finder.app/Contents/MacOS/Finder_i386 /System/Library/CoreServices/Finder.app/Contents/MacOS/Finder
Works f****ing good

System
  • MoBo: MSI K9N2GM-FD, Chipset GeForce 8200 (MCP78)
  • CPU: AMD Athlon 64 X2 5200+ @3,02 Ghz
  • RAM: Kingston 2GB DDR2 800Mhz + Corsair 2GB DDR2 800Mhz @747Mhz
  • VGA: EVGA 9800GT SSC
  • HDD: 300GB WD SATAII
  • Optical Drive: Sony SATA 24X
  • OS: Vanilla Mac OS X Server 10.6.0 + Nawcom ModCD, upgraded to 10.6.8 and Windows 7 x64.
Everything works, except sleep, so system isn't Energy Star compilant .

Ok I did all of that, rebootet and everything works fine.. Now which kernel should i use on my Athlon 64 X2?? Whats the difference between Nawcom's Legacy kernel and Andy's? Should I use mach_kernel or mach_kernel atom? They both work for me..

The difference between nawcom and andys kernel is the custom dyld for on the fly cpuid patching.
But you can also disable the the custom dyld with flag std_dyld=Yes.

If you have a atom cpu you have to choose the mach_kernel atom and if not you have to take the other one.
