iAtkosv7 Installed minor issues + questions
 
Hey guys I finally got it sorted after over a week of reading and frustration so YAY TO ME

right I have got it running on a usb pen drive my system is an amd laptop.

I want to know if its safe to update the software theres a mac os upgrade

I also need to know how to get the system working with my laptop keyboard and mouse as I'm having to use a normal external mouse and keyboard thats all so far.

scrolling in the web browser is dodgy and i get half a page mashed up possible gfx card issues anyone confirm ?

and moving folders around blurs alot like what happens in xp with incorrect gfx driver

all issues i could use a hand with thanks

please answer

You dont supply enough info about your hardware for anyone to be able to help you.
For the mouse and keyboard you probably needs PS/2 kexts to have them working, are they PS/2?
As for the update question, it depends on how the distro installed custom kexts and kernels, if you dont know what kexts you need and how they got installed and how to recover from them being overwritten its not safe to do a system update.

well I did say its a laptop so that would the keyboard and mouse are not ps2 there built into the laptop like normal......

as for the update it,s probably not wise for me to do as I dont remember all the diffrent kexts I installed.

\i just want to get the laptops keyboard and mouse working and the gxf card issue sorted at least then it will be a working system

Most laptops mouse and keyboard are acessable via PS/2 interface - so I bet it's the fix.

For the GFX - go to Systemprofiler / Graphic & Monitor page and post it's content... :)

What kind of laptop? AMD or Intel? If AMD you have more work to do than just update.

It's an AMD laptop please help me Mr punk_zappa :) also Mr Iamkantus I will be posting the system profiler page shortly about an hour or so

thanks guys

For an AMD system, I will always recommend Leo4ALL AMD only kernel. Sometime you have to try other distros to see if everything will work as one distro varies from another.

Post your laptop make and model.
