I have little understanding about dsdt and I just have a quick question about it. Whenever I tried to get my dsdt.aml from OSX it gives me errors and warnings. I had to force compile it. However, when I try to put it into /root or /extra,…

I'm having problem with my laptop right now. It is overheating! To the point that it turns off by itself. Unfortunately, my bios is limited and I can only see limited information or probably tweaking it to somewhat level. The bios is…

This looks like good news for Core i5/i7 and HD 4670 owners since Apple added these hardware in their new Imacs! The 4670 is a pretty awesome low powered card. Let's just wait for osx86 support.

I've been seraching for an additional computer that will solely run osx in my workstation. This will solely run osx86 (Snow Leo or Leo). What can you say about this mobo? Hmmm so for it seems ok. It has a soldered processor, Celeron 220…

I just got a netbook (S10 4333-36U Lenovo) as a gift and I'm modding it already. I have XP, OSX 10.6.2, Linux on it which installed fine. I blindly purchased a Broadcom Crystal HD Decoder (BCM970012) MiniPci-e from ebay and it is already…

Is there a way to bypass "/Extra" from loading at boot-up with a kernel flag? The reason I want this is that I have installed Snow Leopard and Leopard in my external hdd. This is how I configured my External HDD: Partition 1 = 30gb Snow…

I just realized that my Sony Vaio Laptop 965 Chipset with GmaX3100 (fully working btw) has very low scores in Xbench 1.3. I installed OS X in my friends older laptop that has GMA950 and it beats out the crap of my newer Sta. Rosa system.…

“Anybody tried updating 10.6.8? I haven't tried it yet because I want to make sure it will be just fine.”

“Anyone made the rear audio blue port (maybe line-in) as speaker out (aside from the green port). I need to add two more speakers that will be plugged in the blue port but it will not work. Of course, it works in Windows 7 as rear speaker ou…”

“Anybody made Sleep working faster? Since I upgraded to 10.6.2, my sleep (updated) works but it takes about 45secs to 1min to fully sleep (fans not spinning). The moment I click "sleep" the screen goes black then, wait until it fully turns o…”

“Try this RTL8139 works in 64bit ... it works great w/ me ... Amazing! Works for me too. Secondary NIC is now detected working fine I just have to find a solution for my 4650 Black screen problem and I'm set! Thanks BlaSTiwi”

“Nah, it didn't work That was the first thing that I did after adding the NIC. dsmeg doesn't even supply a mac address for the newly added pci nic. Even system profiler doesn't detect it. I'm quite puzzled. However, I haven't tried adding th…”

“Anybody tried adding an additional Ethernet NIC card? I added a Realtek 8139D which should run natively in OSX but for some reason, it does not show up in Snow. Could this be caused by the DSDT patch that included the ethernet fix? My built…”

“Been reading this guide like mad and other sites, however I have noticed that many who build a machine with this board have dedicated video cards, does the onboard video work at all with this or no? I'm hoping to use the onboard until I can…”

“if you are talking about the hidden EFI partition then NO, install it manually instead with just 3 terminal commands or RC2.pkg that's what im using right now including my backup leopard partition.. i prefer it because it's hidden and im no…”

“guide updated again to base an RC3+PCEFI 10.3 install and updated kext.. made a short guide too in creating your own DSDT using DSDT-SE.. credits to all who found/create all the apps, kext and fixes.. enjoy ISSUES im having: - Automatic Sle…”

“Can anybody run Voodoopower.kext in 64-bit? It only works in 32-bit which I think is normal. But I want to run in full 64-bit and at the same time save power. Is there any other way to run Speedstep buy not using Voodoopower? Or maybe anybo…”

“Yeah, it is really weird. Hmmm, I'm just plugging it at the back USB ports. I tried switching ports and I they are the same. I just discovered something new (just now), when I disable USB 2.0 in BIOS, the slow boot speeds are identical with…”

“I'll just be a little bit off topic here but your answers are going to be important. I hope it is ok. Do you experience VERY SLOW boot from USB in G31m-ES2L rev 1.x? I boot from Snow Leopard USB installer and it takes 12 minutes to see the …”

“Wow, I made it work. I used all the kext that can be download from this thread and just used the Unofficial Installer of Chameleon RC3 that Dr. Hurt made. That's it! Now I have a fully working Snow Leo! It looks awesome. I'm not yet sure it…”

“I'm making progress. I can now boot with -x32 -v BUT I can only see a grey screen. I can hover the mouse, not like it is frozen, but that is it. It is just stuck at the grey screen. What could this be? Anyone?”

“Man, you're lucky the only problem you have is audio. I can't even install 10.6 in my setup I don't really know what I'm missing, I've trying several methods but can't get it to work. Mine can't even boot in -x32 kernel flag. Could it be th…”

“@MonkeyDLuffy just install it manually, take a look at this guide (http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=164809) to manually install chameleon 2, since you'll be using PCEFI just replace the path of the boot file or drag it i…”

“@heemsker I use 1 stick of 2gb only. Could it be the cause. UPDATE: Well, I have a good news update, not yet sure though. I noticed in the kernel paneic that 64-bit enabled. Ofcouse, I put -v -x32. I know it works because verbose mode is wo…”

“Thanks sk1nhd33t for this guide but I'm afraid it is not working for me. I'm still on the 1st step (Creating the USB flash Snow Installer) and can't pass that. I followed your instructions completely and carefully and I have a kernel panic …”

“Did they fix the problem with voodoo trackpad? Before, the trackpad goes erratic with Boothink 2.2”

“I actually tried that method already. Dumping my Video ROM in Windows and converting .bin file to .rom (then rename it to the proper format that -useatirom understands) and use that rom with -useatirom in chameleon .. Unfortunately, it didn…”

“Is it possible that you know how to do the "dump videorom (from windows) + injecting NVCAP + making own EFI string" in ATI cards? Is there an equivalent "NVCAP" in ATI? Maybe ATICAP? I'm using GraphicsEnabler in my ATI 4650 and im just gett…”

“Ahh .. really sad. I'm exactly having the same problems as vladrxpx. It's 100% identical. Random Crashes and disk checks when booting to windows. The thing is, I'm on Quad boot so I have to do disk check on XP and 7 (I don't know why they d…”

“How come that you have UUID for your NTFS partitions/drives in Disk Utility? Mine doesn't have that information. I only get UUID from my Mac OS partition. I currently have Macfuse and NTFS-3G installed which is so damned slow! I'm willing t…”

“You got QI/CE with EVOEnabler? Maybe I should try it. Oh btw, I got QI/CE with my Asus 4650 (I repurchased again). I should have not returned my 1st one because the trick was using VGA to VGA cable or DVI to VGA cable. So it means that the …”

“You got Sapphire? I guess I thought that Sapphire cards work. I guess I'm not right again. Anyway, I think we have chance because some people with Desktop version 46xx cards made it work. But sometimes I think we don't have a chance because…”

“That looks good. Have you tried remote accessing your computer thru VNC? However, it looks like were on the same boat We have the same ids by the way but what is the model brand of your 4650 1gb? Who is the manufacturer?”

“Not all Ati 4650 video card works on Snow. I have an Asus EAH4650 1gb ddr2 (low profile) and it just doesn't work. Unfortunately, we can't do anything about it unless someone made a patched driver to make it work. I was informed that 46xx d…”

“It is very nice of you to apologize to them. I also apologize for saying such strong words - I was still shocked in that time when I was typing that message. Anyway, I was also a distro user before way back on the Tiger days (jas,uphuck, et…”

“Ok, let's ignore all those creatures creeping out of their holes just to yell "vanilla install is best!" (what's their motivation for this at all, in a topic that's clearly meant for distro installations?!) and return to what this topic was…”

“I don't mean to sound rude but these are the reasons why retail install is suggested over distro.”

“This works! I added a PCI Realtek 8139D NIC. Now both Built-in (DSDT patched) + Secondary PCI NIC works in 64-bit.”

“There could be 2 possible reasons why you are having 4890 as a video card in your system profiler. 1) Since you used a distro, It could have installed an injector that you did not even needed. 2) You're using a dsdt that you just copied or …”

“Yep. I was so obsessed of keeping everything as real as possible with my previous build, lol. I remembered buying a real airport extreme (pulled from a macbook) and putting it in my friends laptop. He actually did not need it, but I convinc…”

“@CyCloBot, Wow, good for you. Mine was only detected as Third Party Wireless. Are you having speed issues? Darn, I think my card is screwed up. I can't max out my actual bandwidth. I re-branded mine because it had issues with my G31M-ES2L w…”

“EDIT: OOPPPPPSS .. you live in Australia. Sorry. I'm not sure if you have these there. Oh, maybe this will help: express pcparts.com.au/Items/net-186-alt-wl-138g-v2?&caSKU=net-186-alt-wl-138g-v2&caTitle=ASUS%20WL-138g%20V2%20Wireless%20802.…”

“The link that you gave was sk1nhd33t's own guide. That guide involves using of DSDT. Did you use the attached DSDT that sk1nhd33t used? That is pretty cool you made it to work, but why can't I make mine work. Of course, I repaired permissio…”

“That is weird. I updated mine but AutoSleep is still not working. Manual Sleep works with OR without PleaseSleep utility - just like in F8, F9, F9 beta, F10 beta BIOS. F10 final is just the same as the others. I have both Sleepenabler in E/…”

“There is no assurance that the 4500MHD will work "soon" or even later. Since GMA 4500 is not natively supported by Apple, hackers might have a difficult time doing it. However, some people managed to have native resolution using the x3100 k…”

“Nope, I did not pay for it and never will I was just hoping that they would be totally out, like no trace at all. Well ... maybe except for OpenHaltrestart .. lol.”

“Oh sorry. What I meant about "/root" = "/" Sorry about that. Yes, I've placed the force compiled one and it seems the same. Do you think the dsdt.aml from ubuntu will be recognized by mac / bootloaders like chameleon, etc?”
