Kj.web

Your video is fantastic and contains alot of hard work! Please dont feel ofended, but there are several thing you do not explain and is a bit confusing for people who have never done it before... Even I dont get some of the steps

Also, it is a bit outdated method and could render many user with inability to run Repair Permissions - talking about using the OSinstall pkg method, Cham 1 etc... there is no need now and dsmos and fakesmc etc have been rebuilt for SL.

Please dot take this the wrong way, but my method is just about the simplest, quickest, easiest and fastest there is... until a proper distro comes out! And even still I will constantly update this thread to accomodate new features, like I managed to make mic in work last night...

But its a damn nice video for the state of SL install progress from before Gold Master so well done !!

(I actually had seen your video before when attempting the SL install direct from Leo to external drive...)

Thank you very much. Gurruwiwi, It clear many things out ...

I still dont get the Audio to work..

Then I wonder if it is applePs2Controller.kext and VoodoPS2Controller.kext is the problem if they both are in the extensions at the same time?
If i use both PS2 controller the mouse stop to work cant do much at all. No controll, then i need to boot with -f flag to fix it.

Removed VoodooPS2Controller and have ApplePs2Controller in Extensions map.
Maybe it have to do with SD controller??? It dose not work ether..

Dumped my Kext file if it is any help...
SEE My TXT file i dump them in text files .....

What is the best for Acer 6935G?

I have all this Kext in my extensions and Extra Extensions is there any problem you can see?
Thank you for all your time ...

I wish i had this working so i can continue to work with my computer... Need only the AUDIO to work then I am very pleased.
Then the other minimal stuff does not bother me.

No problems. Thanks for your kind words.

You should not be having problems with audio. Lets try to clear some things.

I just found out what I said before is not 100% correct.

For Audio, you ONLY need VoodooHDA in the System/Library/Extensions folder.

First, be sure to download the 64bit version of voodooHDA... you can use the link in Post 1.

In those files, you also have a utility called "Kext Utility". Copy it to desktop.

How to do it;

1 - Manually copy VoodooHDA to System/library/Extension
2 - Check in Extra/Extension you do NOT have any audio kext - if you do, delete it.
2 - run Kext Utility - let it work until it finishes. Open Disk Utilities and Repair Permissions
3 - reboot

Does it work?

KamalAhmad · #34 10-11-2009, 05:06 PM

Hi Gurruwiwi,,

Downloaded a new kext for VoodooHDA 32/64 versions.
http://www.kexts.com/view/22-voodooh...--64-bit).html
Tryed the kext from A_File_Vault too. didnt work.

Put it in the SLE manualy
Deleted the kext from extra/ extensions
Run Kext Util and then waited and runned Repair premissions.

reboted not working.

I getting tired of this some thing is not right maybe you have another card.

This is my specifikation, look att the attachment.

Another thing about the graphic it okej on the computer but if you use HDMI output you get a picture but the quality is not that good like the drivers in windows. But this is another problem maybe it will come better support for it.

Best regards

Thumbs up for this great guide bro.. I was able to install Snow Leopard in to my HP Dv5 1104tx notebook and now running smoothly

When I was reading the tutorial u mentioned that not to use Western Digital HDDs, I was disappointed (my laptop comes with a WD HDD

)and my HDD didn't boot after installation. But after so many trial and error methods, I got it to boot. Now SL is working like a charm!

Thanks again..

Gurruwiwi · #36 10-12-2009, 11:16 AM

Kamal, let me get home to check something and we will try another aproach.

Gnate, not all WD are bad. You just have to go to Apple.com and check out which are the bad models. Has to do with spin up and down issues. But then again, they might not have all possible models listed, because I guess they only mention the ones that were issued stock.

It is a good idea to avoid them though.

gnate3 · #37 10-12-2009, 12:20 PM

Gurruwiwi, Bro I got it to work. It didn't boot for the 1st time, but then I could get it to work. Now SL is working like a charm..
Thanks again for the great tutorial

Ps - Do you know any 64bit IDT audio kext for SL? Please if you know post it. With VoodooHDA only sound-out is working. No mic

There were some IDT audio drivers for Leopard but couldn't find anything for SL.

KamalAhmad · #38 10-12-2009, 12:40 PM

Hi Gurruwiwi,

Hope you find anything who helps me.
Did you see my specification pdf i attatched?

When i use disk util i get this error.

Repairing permissions for “SnowLeo”
ACL found but not expected on "System/Library/Extensions".
Repaired "System/Library/Extensions".
Warning: SUID file "System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAgent" has been modified and will not be repaired.
Warning: SUID file "System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/DesktopServicesPriv.framework/Versions/A/Resources/Locum" has been modified and will not be repaired.

Permissions repair complete

Do you understand anythig of this? Is something not in place? Didnt get it erlier if i remember..

I have not Changed anything like in your tutorial about SUID.. didnt have to in the installations distro i installed from.

Thanks..

Greatings
Kamal

Hey Kamal... I am sorry, I forgot about you. I am not home right now, I promiss tomorrow to try to help you again.

I have the exact same error you do when repairing permissions. I dont know what they are about, but so far i dont find any problems. I dont think it is very important.

gnate3 · #40 10-16-2009, 08:14 AM

Gurruwiwi - Found any solution for 64bit IDT audio? :S
