mouse freezes
basically installed the AnV XNU Kernel, yet my mouses freezes up and I'm only running a web browser or something, I think it has something to do with my video card, geforce 6600gt.
As my mouse will lag between one movement to another, and it's an optical logitech mouse. |

so does your mouse freeze but the rest of your system still works i.e. you can use keyboard shortcuts and stuff? if this happens only during browsing the web or downloading things it is probably a problem with your LAN card not having the right drivers. this happened to me as well on my old system

Basically, I mention my video card as the screen refuses to update itself, so if I scroll down, it still shows the top of the web page, and then bits of it appear, and then it unfreezes and scrolls down, or If i'm watching a video a pink hue will appear, and then go all blurry. and the sound will be jittery, according to VLC
"frame (computer too slow ?) ffmpeg: more than 5 seconds of late video -> dropping frame (computer too slow ?) "i'll have dropped frames." it's incredibly frustating, and one more thing when i turn on my pc the apple bootloader goes on, and the screen goes amber. and deosn't load the desktop, i have to restart twice before I get to the desktop.

You haven't mentioned what video drivers you're using? Also, what does System Profiler say about your graphics? hardware accelerated?
If you want to try the drivers from my Nvidia system, you can get them here If you do try them make sure you back up your current files just in case anything goes wrong Code:
sudo -s tar -cjpvf /System/Library/Extensions.tar.bz2 /System/Library/Extensions/ tar -cjpvf /System/Library/Frameworks/OpenGL.tar.bz2 /System/Library/Frameworks/OpenGL.framework/ exit Assuming you downloaded and extracted the file in your Downloads folder you can do Code:
cd ~/Downloads/nvidia_video sudo -s chown -R 0:0 * chmod -R 644 * cp -Rpf Extensions/* /System/Library/Extensions/ cp -Rf OpenGL.framework /System/Library/Frameworks/ rm -rf /System/Library/Caches rm -rf /System/Library/Extensions/Caches kextcache -a i386 -m /System/Library/Extensions.mkext /System/Library/Extensions/ Code:
cd /System/Library/ rm -rf Caches Extensions Extensions.mkext tar -xvf Extensions.tar.bz2 kextcache -a i386 -m Extensions.mkext Extensions/ cd Frameworks/ rm -rf OpenGL.framework tar -xvf OpenGL.tar.bz2 reboot Last edited by Dies; 04-19-2009 at 05:43 PM. Reason: fixed link |

Here's what System Profiler says about my system:

According to that everything looks good, except I'm having a hard time buying this part
Code:
VRAM (Total): 1024 MB Why don't you give the files I linked to a try. Like I said if it doesn't work for you, no biggie, just recover your old files. |

Plz add your system specs in the signature. If you have an AMD multicore cpu it sounds like the Dual-Core-bug, but this problem should be solved with the new kernels. If you're using a logitech mouse watch where the receiver is placed. Don't put it on metal, maybe turn it a bit around, this can help. Are you using two mice at the same time?
