Technical notes, hardware configuration, and community findings for 64-bit Battery Management kext (Snow Leopard 10.6).

“Yea, got the info down the line that once a source is out there'll be a fix for it. I'm also in need for an 64bit compatible kext for NVkush. With snow you can boot by generating an EFI string for your quadro card but still no acceleration …”

“im gonna try your pack out on my d820, are you using the vanilla kernel? I'm having that TSCSync stutter so i'm booting with cpus=1 to avoid it...not sure if the 630/620's had the same problem”

“Holy shit man... even with your Extra folder I STILL cannot install Lion. Once it reaches a certain (or certain points) in the installation, it will choose to either go to a black screen (but not restart completely...), freeze, or a KP with…”

“here you go guys media fire.com/?pfd015z2rqpg4g0 Remember grab the ionetworking family kext from 10.6 installation and install after your up and running for your ethernet ports..you can delete my card from the device section in the boot.pli…”

“http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=260594 doesn't get much easier than that...you'll need to delete that appleTyMCE driver *for system to boot* and use your old IOnetworking file from snow as well as a the new voodoohda or…”

“What bios and boot-loader are you running? Sure you followed the steps exactly? Shouldn't have a problem… Anyone else tried the 10.6.8?”

“ok finally got around to installing Lion, good news is that it runs just fine with the name Extra folder from snow leopard and same dsdt. Bad news audio doesnt work out of the box. Have to edit legacy889hda or use the applehda.kext from sno…”

“Did anyone try Lion yet? i've just been waiting til it goes final and doing my reading...should be fairly easy i'm assuming. You?”

“netflix is working for me. Also i just upgraded to 24GB ram, finally i can work with After Affects CS5 with no ram problems... i also haven't booted on my windows install since CUDA is working now. that's awesome lol doubt you'll ever need …”

“@farksi im assuming you have a dual boot setup using chameleon. this is the reason why i chose to dual boot in a different way. i have both installations in separate HDDs. i have windows setup with IDE then Mac with AHCI. whenever i need to…”

“Everyone updated ok? I haven't turned my system on in about 4 days”

“Sure. It has latest dsdt, ssdt and kexts I am using. I did not include any additional utilities to keep it small. You can always download them elsewhere or let me know what you need and I'll upload it for you. rapid share.com/files/42953565…”

“The card works smoothly so far. the most important feature that i really needed is not supported which is CUDA. i was hoping CUDA worked, but im on a waiting game right now for new drivers from nvidia to leak out. Gaming is pretty smooth so…”

“Slayer how is your new card? I was thinking of going the ati route, still on the fence”

“I just bought the new EVGA X58 SLI 3, so I guess I'm screwed on native power management for now because it has 6 core support in the first bios. Should I try using one of the older bioses from one of the other boards? If someone got the pow…”

“ill guess ill go that route, so ill have no problems with chameleon. airwalk do you have sleep working? I had to reinstall windows to get AHCI mode working correctly (ahci sata drivers)…seems like mac doesn't like AHCI-IDE mode, i have to a…”

“I have not had a chance to update yet once I do I will work on modding the legacyHDA to work with the new appleHDA In the mean time try voodooHDA USB speakers FTW! lol...i got the logitech Z-cinema's”

“I'm modifying my case on my own, but I don't think I can help you much since I live in Brazil I was motivated by this topic on InsanelyMac: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=4525 There's literay tons of information there …”
