[UPDATE] Voodoo XNU Kernel 9.4.0 Beta 1 (Now Alpha 7)
 
This was first named StageXNU ;)



Download, copy to your Leopard partition's root directory, then reboot. At the bootloader prompt, type voodoo_beta1 -v to boot into the kernel (with verbose boot messages).

Kernel Features (those with asterisk* need further testing):

Supports sleep/resume as well as SpeedStep on most systems (use in conjunction with the SpeedStep kext)
Massively improved SSE3 Emulation layer, up to 3 times faster and fully multithread-capable (thanks Turbo)
Real-time clock fix for SSE2 users (no system slowdown/stutter when speedstep is on, supports less than 1 GHz cpu speeds)
*Raw ethernet packet support, useful for MAC spoofing and other kinds of network diagnostics (patch by Peter Bartoli)
*More secure: Execute-Disable (XD/NX) is turned on by default for supported systems
HPET enabled on supported systems, cleaner boot-up code
Legacy Vmware support by using busratio= bootflag.

Edit: Tested it just here, and i'm having a instant reboot. So be sure to not install it as default before testing.

Edit2: There is a new build version, this one does work on my system, but i'm getting some audio lag. Trial and error on you're system, DON'T install as default kernel before testing! :)

Sounds promising. :)

It doesn't work for me either, I get the reboot after the darwin prompt too.

Does not work. restart after 1-2 seconds of booting.

Same here ...

works great for me, the system seems faster now.

Try adding busratio=X as bootflag for the AMD systems (X is your CPU multiplier)

Yup, that works. :D

Can't say whether it's made any real difference or not ? I'll let it run for a while...

Does seem a little smoother though.



Edit - Nevermind, instant freeze with VMware. :(
