Damned!! so, it won´t work in 64bits until the kext is re-developed.

From what i understand that is the case.

If you think that's bad then wait for Snow Leopard: :eek:

Quote:
In most cases Leopard can use the same drivers as Tiger. If there is a limitation, it usually stems from interaction with other kexts and bundles that have been updated. However, with the transition to Snow Leopard we do not have this functionality. 32 bit drivers DO NOT WORK in Snow Leopard. That's right, it ALL starts over.

64 bit is application based so kext will not effect the boot up

64 bit only turns on if the app needs it

Guys, please go here

And post those MSR values! This helps the developers to make a even more better kernel for AMD users :D

Hmm, after investigating further you are right (at least for Leopard, see my previous post), but according to Mysticus C over on InsanelyMac, the 4gb ram issue is caused by incompatibility with the nForce driver and 64bit. I'm only guessing here but it is possible it could effect booting.

to fix sound you have to boot with busratio
like mine is fsb is 200
and my cpu is 2.6GHz
so it would be 2600 divided by 200
for a busratio of 13
so i boot with busratio=13

I can confirm that sound works right if you do that
this will be fix in the future as this is just alpha
All perfect with alpha11, without bus ratio's boot, sounds is perfect.
Installed also system kexts from 10.5.5
