After that, I backed up some kexts and data to be safe and then got the 10.5.6 Update from Software Update (not the ASU; I got an error every time I tried).

After restart, it booted! I had to replace AppleSMBIOS.kext with my old kext because About This Mac would force a logout, but that all I needed to do to get 10.5.6 working for me

I did just that, and it works perfectly fine for me. i still get (since the upgrade to 10.5.5) my amd cpu listed as core 2 duo in about this mac, but this really is a non- issue. the good thing is that the system is working just fine.

EDIT 1: Well, i just found a big problem: my usb stick is no longer detected. worked great in 10.5.5. anyone has any ideas of what to do about it?

EDIT 2: ok, i found out how to get it to see the usb stick: i have to delete the extensions cache: sudo rm -R /system/library/extensions/caches

problem is i have to do this everytime i restart my computer. i know it's possible to do this automatically, but i did not have to do this on 10.5.5.

is there something that can be done about this?

Install System.kext v9.5.0 as it must be the same version as kernel.
Be noted that System.kext 9.5.0 is included in Voodoo kernel package.

+++

Only problem I have with Leopard v10.5.6 on my AMD machine is System Profiler. It won't show comp info. Anyone has 10.5.5 version of AppleSMBIOS.kext? It's needed to fix this? Please someone drop me a PM if you have a minute to send it to me (working AppleSMBIOS.kext). Once I get it I'll edit this message to remove request. Thanks in advance.

this is a "feature" of the vodoo kernel to increase compatibility

I'll second Hara Taiki's request for more information. If you could post your system specs in your signature we could help you better. Also, list version specific names instead of a general statement. Thanks.
