Some questions for clarification, for NIXin
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
QUESTIONS:
----------------
1. In the /ThinkPad- X61 Pack/X61-BrightnessPack/ subfolder there is a file called 'lenovo_x61_sound_ether_3100-efi-string.plist'
What is this for?
2. The /ThinkPad- X61 Pack/Backlight Stuff/ subfolder is empty… is this supposed to be empty?
3. From Step 7. "Install the latest fakeSMC.kext"- There is a note on the netkas page that says "p.s. this doesn't work well with voodoo kernel, because voodoo kernel blocks Don't Steal mac os.kext, so you need to use dsmos/ appledecrypt anyway". I don't think this applies to the other voodoo kexts, though).
I am still getting a kernal panic at bootup… could this be the cause?
4. From Step 8. "add the ID of Atheros card to IO80211Family.kext (see the link on bottom on how to do that)"
• What 'link on bottom' are you talking about?
5. From Step 11. "install VoodooHDA (for audio), VoodooPS2Controller (for keyboard and Trackpoint) and IOSDHCIBlockDevice.kext (for SDHC card reader) and Intel82566MM.kext (for LAN)"
• The installer for Voodoo PS2Controller (for keyboard and Trackpoint) actually has a selection for 'keyboard' and 'Trackpad', can I assume it works with the 'TrackPoint' as well?
6. From Step 14. "add the following code to [/Library/Preferences/System Configuration/]com.apple.Boot.plist on the [new SL] X61's partition:"
• Please see my method of adding the code using Terminal in the 'Tutorial' section. Is this correct? Copy-and-paste from your 'infinitemac' website tutorial, right?
• What does this code do?
• Is this code for the Atheros card?
• Is this the com.apple.Boot.plist found in /Library/Preferences/System Configuration/ ?
• Or is there another copy that is in the root directory ("add the following code to com.apple.Boot.plist on the X61's partition:") after Chameleon has been installed????
7. At the end of your tutorial you mention 3 kexts:
DSMOS.kext
OpenHaltRestart.kext
Superhai's VoodooPower.kext
• What is the best source to get these from?
8. What is your X61s Model and BIOS version?
Mine is:
X61S Type 7668-CTO
BIOS Version: 1.05 (7NET24WW)
BIOS Date (Y-M-D) 2007-06-15
Embedded Controller Version 1.02
CPU Type Intel® Core™ 2 Duo CPU L7500
CPU Speed 1.60 GHz
Installed memory 4096 MB
9. In the ThinkPad-X61 Pack DSDT folder there are 2 files... dsdt.aml and dsdt_fixed.txt... the dsdt.aml has the icon of a Unix Executable file, but the dsdt.aml I have on my 2 working Hackintoshes are document files... they are located in the 'Extras' folder in my working machines, and in the root of the x61s install. The working machines also have com.apple.Boot.plist, Extensions.mkext, smbios.plist and a 'Themes' folder. The 'Extras' folder on my x61s is empty (maybe this last part is normal for an unconfigured install). Should the dsdt.aml be in the 'Extras' folder, and why does it have a 'Unix Executable file' icon instead of a 'Document' icon??? And what is the dsdt_fixed.txt file???
