Am I reading right? The 'Mouse movement bug' has finally been put to an end? Wonderful!
Thank you XNU Dev Labs. :) |
Yes, you read it right. I've been testing a pre beta 2 kernel with the relevant fix and I have to say that my system has never been so stable. No mDNSResponder errors, no divide by zero, no -10810 errors -- nothing!
Good job XNU-Dev! |
it`s not yet released right? is it possible to get this beta ? and what is the release date cause 8th was delayed
|
According to mercurysquad the official beta 2 should be released before Monday, "hopefully".
|
Does the 9.5 kernel work with 10.5.3 too? I don't have the mouse mevement bug, but sometimes dividion by zero and maybe two times the -10810 error since I own my dual-core cpu which is since May. Which packages do I need?
|
i think it may work, at least it works with 10.5.4. anyway i wonder why some bugs appear on some cpus but do not show up on others...i`ve never seen division by zero problem or any errors. i`ve got only mouse-bug and sound stuttering
|
The 'mouse bug' and audio stutter are both symptoms of TSC drift which has now been resolved.
|
Not to throw this into the wrong discussion but with the voodoo_beta kernel, my original TSC delta was -235690 and the new delta with CPU1 is 36.
Is there any way to narrow the gap down closer to 0? |

Is there any benefit to having this fix as a kext? Would it not be simpler if it stays in-kernel? |
R0GUE just identified a bug where sleep/resume resets the workaround. So we'll probably package this up as a .kext which AMD users can dump in their Extensions folder and it will take care of everything - rather than modifying the kernel's sleep/resume functions. People who use other kernels can use the kext too.
This also means beta 2 will be further delayed. Please be patient :) |
not workin 4 me
I have been using the VooDoo_beta2 for a while and it has not fixed it for me. I still get mDNS responder errors too. I am running a 3.5ghz C2D with 4gb of 750mhz ddr2 on an ASUS P5N-t Deluxe mobo. I have also not yet tried the HT freq. x3 yet but will now. just letting you know that the kernel does not seem to be a total fix for everyone. ;) cheers all~
|
This fix incorporated into the kernel is only aimed at K8 socket AMD owners. If you are experiencing problems you should fill out the beta test report and post it on Google Code.
|
ah sorry bouut that, is it known to happen to lga775 mobos?
|
It seems that installing Paragon NTFS gives me the mouse bug. Using the cpus=1' kernel flag didn't fix it for me.
But I logged into Windows and using Macdrive deleted the Application from Applications. It still gives me read and write of NTFS but fixed the problem. |
I had a similar problem on my machine
After using standby (accidentally as I had left the PC for a while and had forgot to change power management settings) the whole OS was very laggy, System monitor showed high CPU usage. I think the OS crashed when trying to resume from standby and after a reboot then I had the high CPU usage problem. No matter how many times I rebooted, nothing fixed it. I only have a single core Athlon 64 though. Also, booting with -x option would make it run smooth but video drivers didn't load so couldn't run anything fancy. Never worked it out and eventually reinstalled |
I can't seem to find a fix for my mouse bug.
Booting cpus=1 doesn't do anything. It seems to happen randomly when I boot up. The screen goes black and the monitor says no signal, then it goes light blue, then the desktop comes up very slowly and then I can't move my mouse. If I restart I'll get the same thing. Tried booting with the fsb= boot argument but no go. I've even tried iDeneb 1.4 same thing. |
I need help!!!
Well im new to the hackintosh world so please if anyone can help me do.
i still havent installed the program. well what im trying to say is i havent even picked out one ie. (IDeneb, Kalyway, or a iPC) so if anyone could also help me with this that be great, so my rig is as follow, M3A79-T Deluxe Phenom x4 9550 XFX GeForce 9800 GT - 512MB GDDR3 Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 250GB Hard Drive my optical drive is a cd-rom but do really need a dvd-rom note* the mobo is a crossfire x ready chipset thanks in advance Max .C. |

I've had the most luck with ideneb. Make sure you get the most resent iDeneb 1.4. You need to search the forums for the right kexts (drivers) for your hardware. You can also check out the insanelymac.com wiki and forums. Yes you need a dvd drive os x to to big to be on cd. Unless you but it on a USB key and boot from that. |
