Legacy kernel 10.4.0 updated
“@eMatoS: line 23: vPermuteChannels_ARGB8888_SSSE3, looks like it's trying to use SSSE3 which as Andy said before is not yet emulated. Maybe this is why. For me Snow Leopard still does not work at all even in 32 bit, I get the same KP I post…”

Legacy kernel 10.4.0 updated
“Like for eMatoS: without arch=i386 and patcher_opts=2: reboot with arch=i386 but without patcher_opts: kernel panic (see attachment but it's similar to those I've reported before) with both it boots and somewhat works but still not really u…”

Qoopz AnV xnu 10.4.0 Rel4
“I have a small problem with some .mov and .mp4 files. The QuickLookHelper is quitting. QuickLookHelper is known to be problematic even on real Macs. Try searching for it and see for yourself. So this might not be related to this kernel but …”

Qoopz AnV xnu 10.4.0 Rel4

“I tried again with a fresh install of 10.6.0 with this 10.4.0 Rel4 kernel, Chameleon RC5 prerelease 18 Build_112 bootloader, fixed DSDT and smbios, nForceATA, nForceLAN, NullCPUPowerManagement and FakeSMC kexts on a machine with AMD Athlon6…”

Qoopz AnV xnu 10.4.0 Rel4
“@cynargo: Thanks for the reply. I think the VoodooPower I was trying should have some support for AMD based on this: The -force64 option does the same (instant reboot while booting) like any other way trying to boot 64bit on my system (but …”

Qoopz AnV xnu 10.4.0 Rel4
“First, big thanks to Andy for his great work on this, it is really amazing! I could boot a fresh (unpatched) 10.6.4 install (10.6.0 + combo update) with this kernel on an AMD Athlon64 3200+ and it mostly works (even iTunes started) but ther…”
