I don't know you guys, but I have always found the Mac OS X mouse movements unnatural. At first, I thought it was just a matter of time and I would get used. But since I use Windows at work everyday, I simply couldn't get used to it.…

I'm getting the message "There was an error saving the VNC password" when trying to enable the VNC server (in System Preferences, Sharing, Remote Management, Computer Settings, VNC Viewers...") The error in the system.log is "Feb 7…

“Thanks for the orientation. All I needed to do was to edit the "plist" files using the plists I had working under Leopard. Now I have "Headphones" (front jack) in the sound preferences and it works just fine. D”

“Yes, by headphones I mean the front jack. I tried connecting the headphones both in the headphone out and the mic in and nothing happened. I'll try your guide and post back. thanks”

“I have 3 line outs and 1 Digital out. The first line out works fine with the speakers that are connected in the back panel. I used to have speakers AND headphones working in Leopard (10.5.6) with patched AppleHDA. I know I can't use Leopard…”

“System profiler is just cosmetics. What you see in Sound Preferences is all that matters. Thanks. Any hint of what I have to edit to get headphones to work?”

“I followed the steps as described in the first post and got sound working (don't need 5.1). Also, everything shows just fine on System Profiler. The problem is that although "Headphones" shows in System Profiler, I can't choose it as output…”

“Have you tried deleting DSDT from /Extra and putting the 2 different versions in the root of each partition (SL, Leo)? Good luck with that. I have finally found a stable way to dual-boot Leo and SL and am very happy with my HackPro now.”

“Thanks for this thread. I got a working Leo + Snow Leo working. After I installed Netkas' EFI 10.3, it seems that it is loading the extensions from /Extra/Extensions ONLY from the booted partition, making it easier to dual boot. That is, on…”

“In my experience, NTFS write support in SL is not reliable. I've used it, but I will keep it disabled by default as I don't often need to write to NTFS. In Leopard, MacFuse + NTFS-3G was very reliable.”

“... as the partiton table or something similar is not correct. As a general rule, it is useful if you copy the exact message you get and post it so that people don't have to guess what is happening. Maybe that is why nobody replied. I haven…”

“Fred, Dá um boot com a opção -v e posta aqui as últimas linhas que aparecem ou uma foto da tela durante o boot.”

“What is that program you use that shows CPU usage graphs in the menu bar with a translucent black background? Monsieur D.”

“Guys, I don't think this is as bad as you think. It could even be a good thing: If more and more companies start to make money with OSx86 and Apple can't stop them with law suits, then Apple might finally be forced to make their system comp…”

“Now that you have both extensions, is it working? If it is, then you can”

“It works with the kext compiled for 64-bit that you can find here: cid-8b65993ef55cf014.skydrive.li ve.com/browse.aspx/.Public/OSx86/Snow%20Leopard/Drivers%20kext%20%5E5Sterowniki%5E6/==%20Chipset%20-%20%20SATA%20%5E0%20IDE%20Controllers%20…”

“My DVD is attached to the ATA (IDE) port. If I understand your post correctly, this port is also controlled by the JMicron controller. Is that right?”

“I have the same problem. My ATA DVD writer is recognized by Leopard and it works fine (all the DVDs I burned work). On Snow Leo, however, it doesn't even show in Disk Utility and if I insert a DVD in the drive nothing happens. It's as if I …”

“For the record: My Specs.: OS: MacOSX Leopard 10.5.2 by Zephyroth Processor: AMD Athlon™ 64 X2 4200+ / MMX, 3DNow!, SSE, SSE2, SSE3, x86-64 Motherboard: ASRock 939NF6G Graphics: NVidia GeForce 7800 GT - working with NVInject Hard Drive: Sea…”

“FIXED: Repartitioned target backup drive using MBR partitioning (was GUID). Long answer: Apparently there's a problem with GUID (at least in my computer). Firstly, I tried to install Leopard (Zephyroth's 10.5.2 DVD) in a GUID partition. It …”

“rumar4u: no problem. You were not rude. That's certainly a problem with internet forums: what you write and think might be interpreted differently by the reader... So all is fine. Back to fixing my time machine”

“rumar4u: thanks for the answer. I was not asking what kexts are or how to install them, but I was a bit lost in your first post because I had those files installed (did a fresh 10.5.2 install with Zephyroth's disk). I appreciate that you to…”

“I've tried what timdsmith72 suggested + repaired permissions + reboot. Still not working. rumar4u, could you explain in detail what you did and where you got those kexts from (AppleSMBIOS and IONetworking.kext). Also, I don't understand wha…”

“There is a way to dual boot XP (I know you want Vista, but this might work) and Mac OS X using Windows´ boot loader. If you have both systems installed, use this tutorial: digi tmemo.com/articles/658/howto-the-complete-mac-leopard-installat…”

“I am sorry, but I don´t know how to do it with the three systems on the same disk. Hopefully, someone who did it will help... D.”

“By the way, this code goes into the file /boot/grub/menu.lst”

“If you install linux on a different disk, you may not need to copy the efi_v8 file to the /boot/grub. I have a triple boot Mac OS X, Win XP, Ubuntu 8.04 and my entry for Mac OS X (with EFI/Vanilla) is title Mac OS X 10.5.2 Leopard root (hd1…”

“Did you check the resolution in System Preferences -> Display? Sounds like you're not using the monitor's native resolution.”

“I just installed XxX Leopard Universal 10.5.6 in another partition and that seems to solve my problem. I don't know if it's something different about the installs or if it's a different kext that I chose as I don't remember all the options.”

“It is just cosmetic. I have the same reports in System Profiler and my system runs as fast or faster than windows that shows all the information correctly.”

“FYI: This kind of problem happened to me all the time in Windows. In Windows, it is a known issue that nForce ATA drivers cause the BSOD when copying large files. May be a problem related to the nForce drivers, although in Leopard 10.5.2 an…”
