Works fine here! Thanks for the quick update! ;)

Reboot is not working here, back to evoreboot... Everything else is fine.

legacy_kernel 10.4 not working on HP DV8t
Tried it on my HP DV8t-1100 (VF836AV) after using legacy_kernel 10.3.0 and saw a quick flash of the gray apple screen and then reboot. :(
Any suggestions would be great. Thanks |
All was good, but then i removed AppleUpStreamUserClient.kext
And everything went craazzzy Instant kernel panic on boot... Anyone with the same problem? |
Have you ensured, that the Extensions Cache was beeing rebuild correctly after deleting that kext? Maybe tried to use -f Flag for that?
|
Yeah i think that was the problem indeed. It boots again :)
Now i have a other problem, it seems that the machine gets a lot slower when playing HD movies, with 10.6.3 everything was fine. Did the drivers change? Anyone else with the same problem? Edit: Found this... "It appears to be 'only' happening on Macs with an nvidia graphics card or chipset, and is an apparent problem with certain OpenGL routines (not all) and the NV50HAL Graphics Driver that ships with 10.6.4 It also render CUDA (3.0.14) unusable). nvidia are aware of the problem, and there is a bug report with Apple. What they are doing, and time frame is a question only they can answer... " |
You could try out using NV50HAL + NVDAResman from 10.6.3 - maybe it will cause compatibility problems with 10.6.4 frameworks - maybe it'll work... ;)

Perfectly updated to 10.6.4 then installed this kernel.
All seems to be perfect, only issue some strange crash in apps like iphoto or SL Ntfs. |
Hi Imkantus,
My congrats to the entire team who worked so hard in making this kernel for us AMD peeps. I have an AMD Phenom x955 on a Gigabite ga-ma785gnt-ud2h motherboard. I will say that previous legacy kernels didn't work for me at all, and this is the first one to do so, probably because of the fsb detection. So now the legacy kernel is usable on the Phenom II platform. 3 noticeable things, and ones which however still make me revert back to black knight's 10.3.0 kernel: 1. I spent 10 re-installs to get everything back up again, because it appears that with this kernel there is no way to use a USB modem (like a cell phone which is what I use for internet access) to connect to the internet with. Whenever I use this kernel in combonation with any data card (I've tested with a Huawei modem and a pantech one), I get a message telling me that the connection failed. No matter what I do I can't use a USB datacard/modem for the internet. When using 10.6.4 with Black Knight's 10.3.0 kernel, however, the USB modem works fine. 2. Cache detection doesn't work for me. At all-System profiler does not show my caches whereas with Black Knight's kernel it does. 3. This is just a suggestion, but I see that the kernel edits chemelion to use legacy_kernel instead of mach_kernel . Wouldn't it be more practical to just back up the mach_kernel and use that instead of a legacy_kernel file? Thanks for everything, and keep up the great work! All the best, Tomi |
Thanks for all your hard work, but this kernel this still has Tsc skrew on my AMD X2 5600+ and the only way to get rid of it is to boot with cpus=1 and that slows down my computer alot. Another problem it doesn't detect my cpu speed in Mhz, it only detects my fsb, which could be the root of the problem. Well I'd appcreaite if someone could look into it and thanks again everyone for the work on this kernel. :)
