Can you help me identifying the video section in yours dsdt for changing it with mine? Do i need this at all? I think EFI-strings are enough, so i just want to remove the video section and use your dsdt on my system.. Thanks!! |

Success! Kinda.
Hey Guys!!!
Thanks so much for the help you've already provided. I am now running mostly functional vanilla installation of 10.6.1. I have a new set of challenges however that I've yet to find answers for. After much searching, I thought I might just ask here. The first and foremost - Segmentation faults with VLC. Depressing, as I just purchased this very shiney, very large and very expensive 21.5" 1080i 16:9 display. Has anyone encountered something similar? As before, any input would be very much appreciated. Maybe a little more information would be helpful. Console gives me the following... Code:

Or you can try this: Open VLC go to Preferences, switch from BASIC to ALL in the left bottom corner , then expand Input/Codecs , expand Other codecs, go to the last one, FFmpeg then there you wil see "Skip the loop Filter for H.264 decoding" set to "None" Change that to "Non-ref" or "None-key" or if this won't work try with "All" Please note that this will reduce a bit the quality, specially when you select "ALL" I am curious if this will do the trick, I don't remember where I read this... |

Asus P5K Premium Working
Thanks for your guide. I have got everything working on my Asus P5K-Premium but I would like to know if it can get some more vanilla or that this is "it".
On my EFI boot partition I have now these kexts in my extra/extensions folder. AD1988bFix.kext --> Really needed AppleYukon2Injector.kext --> Possible to add Marvell Yukon 8056 in dsdt? [ETH0 is pretty dead without it but snow leopard recognizes both ETH0 and ETH1 no led activity though) fakesmc.kext --> Really needed OpenHaltRestart.kext --> Without no shutdown/reboot (Black after HALT doesn't do anything) fixable with dsdt? PlatformUUID.kext --> Possible to edit in DSDT? My Geforce 8800 Ultra works with an EFI string in my com.apple.boot.plist file but is this possible to add to the dsdt file? Then another question; There is very slow LAN detection, It takes up to half an hour to see some other hacks/macs and no windows computers. This is normal? |

Thanks lance!
The first thing I tried was Perian. I have Perian 1.1.4 installed, however I can not open *.mkv with Quicktime. When choosing from the Open With... I can't select Quicktime. Or if do it the other way, open Quicktime and try to drag and drop or File> Open... the *.mkv in question, it doesn't let me! I also attempted what you asked me with VLC and unfortunately it produced the same results in Console. Outside of this issue, I don't think I am having any problems other than the mouse lag issue. For some reason I can't get that resolved :P Thanks again everyone |

Thanks again lance. I really wish I could get VLC to work, but I'll happily take the work around. I was originally going to use this machine as a media centre so I have Plex and it works great, though the controls are unideal for a desktop user. I'm downloading Mplayer now to give that a shot, too.
Thanks again! |

Hey Gang here's a real good one for y'all
What's everybody using for Bluetooth? I pre ordered my Magic Mouse last week and I'm getting all excited now that they're apparently shipping. Then I thought, Balls! I don't have bluetooth! I know that you can get a USB dongle on eBay for less than three dollars, but even still to purchase that and find only that it doesn't work... big waste of three dollars and a lot of time. So if anyone is using a specific brand or model that they'd recommend, please let me know! And then I'd be happy to report back on how the Magic Mouse works! 💡 Deploy cloud instances seamlessly on DigitalOcean. Free credits ($100) for InfMac readers. |
