Compilation of useful kernel extensions for use with Snow Leopard

I see people constantly asking about this sort of stuff in the installation thread, so I figured I would make a thread to organise such things in order to avoid repetition and confusion.

Firstly, 64bit/32bit combo versions of VoodooPS2 and VoodooHDA:

http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/ind...ic=175372&st=0

These are probably the most wanted, and currently the only available in 64bit format. However, if you all do not mind booting in 32bit mode then here are some kernel extensions that are known to work with Snow Leopard.

VoodooPower
VoodooBattery
CoreVidia

I am currently working on getting VoodooPower to compile with the 10.6 SDK for both 64 and 32bit, but currently it is only compiling for 32bit. I will post results and sources here if and when I finish, but for now these extensions are usable in 32bit mode. If anyone finds other useful extensions, let me know and I will edit them into this post. Cheers. =]

I think people dont understand there's nothing wrong in booting in 32 bits? not even performance-wise. You dont need K64 in order to run 64 bit applications or have more than 4 GBs of ram. Just be happy that when u do need K64 it will be there. Im booting in 32 bit and the performance is the same.
