Install went great, all working except audio (ALC882). 7300GT, AMD Athlon 64 X2 5200+, DFI Infinity Mobo, nForce 570.

Only problem.. random hangs, including mouse. competely frozen. Happened once running xbench, and again just now logging into a website in firefox.

How do I troubleshoot that?

@lungkao

cpu cores will only show 1. System monitor should show all cores active and what percentage

@synmoo

do you have 4GB of memory if so thats the problem its well documented. It only affects nforce chipset I believe you need to run the argument for only 3.5GB.

<key>Kernel Flags</key>
<string>maxmem=3456</string>

you need to add that to com.apple.boot.plist in root:library/preferences/systemconfiguration

hope this helps

@LawlessPPC

I only have 2GB. No panic log and system log offered no help.

I am also experiencing profiler saying 1 core, but everything else says 2. About this mac has wrong ram speed also. Shows 400 when I have 800.

Edit:

Update... I've gotten xbench to crash, not a kernel panic though. top details:

everybodies profiler will say 1 core thats the nature of the beast untill someone comes up with a patch or you physically edit applesmbios if i remember rightly same with mem speeds see here -------> http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=112134&hl=smbios . But if you check activity monitor you will see they are there and working

The majority of exc_bad_access errors ive had have been before the program was patched with marvin. I will see if I experience the same probs.

Thanx
