Ok, so I had this wonderful zephy install that made me very happy that died for no apparent reason. I am thus in to reinstall my mac os install... and now that a few new distributions are out, I am wondering which to choose (i had zeph…

Sorry agrafuese, i don't meant to stalk you or something - i am just not sure if you saw the messages. I saw you posted on insanely mac something about hackintosh going berzerk and rebooting, according to the console, because of ""we…

I am getting frustrated by my lan problems, so I'd be willing to hear whatever crazy solutions you guys have. I have a A8N32-Sli deluxe, with 2 lan ports, one which is Marvell Yukon, and the other nforce. The marvell yukon works, but is…

I have a small question concerning legacy USB support. I remembered that when I first installed os x on my pc (it was 10.4.8, i think), I had to deactivate legacy USB in my bios (MB: Asus A8N32-Sli Deluxe) - i am not sure if it was so that…

since the software update, i can't mount internet disks. I have both an idisk and a jungle disk (which i highly highly highly recommend), and none of them will mount. error -50. is it the mds update that fucked up everything?

I installed Zephyroth 10.5.1 (i know 10.5.2 is out and better, but i can't resolve to spend the time reinstalling everything when my current installation is running great). I even upgraded manually to 10.5.2. I have an AMD XP3800+ or…

I sometimes get crashes that the console reports at: "we crashed at instruction 0xffff0315 (PID 0)" They happen about once a day, always when i am away from the computer (like it's waiting for me to look away, the sneaky bastard). Any…

I have a weird and incredibly frustrating problem. My Mac used to work perfectly fine (AMD, Zephy 10.5.2 rev2). I usually keep it on for a while, and I can even shut it down without problems. So, after few days of working with it, I shut…

I am running an install of zephyroth that seems to be working great -- with one catch! Though I can use my itunes account to identify my computer and play my itunes bought music, I can't seem to do anything with the video store. If I buy a…

Ok, I have a question which has probably has a very simple answer, but I can't seem to efficiently find which one among the zillions of techniques proposed to use dual boots. I used to have a triple boot (handled by GRUB) Ubuntu/Mac…

“try what rumar suggested : boot in single user, remove all traces of nvinject, boot in safe mode, reinstall nvinject, chown/chmod everything repair permissions, reboot.”

“Rumar4u: Thank you, you're a genius. I somehow was convinced the chmod chown was just some type of permission repair - but i was obviously wrong. what does it do, or why doesn't "permission repair" from disk utility take care of it? Thanks …”

“Installed Nvidia kext + NvInject 256 (=memory of my card). Repaired permissions, to no avail: boot, but stuck in low res + bitchy "nvinject.kext was not installed properly", no matter how many times i repair permissions. mmm... what should …”

“thanks for your help! should i install the extra 256Mb package with the installer - i did it last time, but i am not sure it's what i am supposed to do.”

“Tried the graphics update - first destroyed my system. Then patched, didn't improve. Then applied rumar's method (removing the GE and NV kext) and it booted. Then I installed zeph's nvinject installer (which had previously worked on my syst…”

“Does the zeph nvinject installer on the website osx86.wikidot include the latest nvinject (0.2.1)?”

“Roisoft or anyone, could you post your loginwindow and mds? I suspect the one in the archive is actually corrupted? When i unzip the file (on a perfeclty healthy macbook), i get two files which are not stricto sensu considered applications …”

“Ahh. fuck this. it just destroyed my system, in spite of my backing up system.kext and kernel and carefully applying replace.sh and the patcher. Apple, you are pissing me off. I have a parallel installation of tiger running - anyone has an …”

“you can try: a) disable legacy usb b) Leave the device plugged for at least an hour and don't touch anything, hope it mounts, and then repair it (in case it's having a problem -- can you mount it on windows)”

“Well, thanks for the comment.. I don't really have time to test all distributions (I have a job.. :, and to be honest having to reinstall drives me a bit crazy.. Does anyone know if X11's problem in Zeph early rev was fixed? Is it present i…”

“Same problem. I think Agrafuese solved it, but somehow I can't get him to find our message. I tried to whisper, but I think whispers still go down the list with time as other normal messages (which is not a very good idea if you ask me..) a…”

“osx.iusethis.com has a good list of tons of mac os software. out of curiosity puttabong do you use tex for maths or because it looks pretty and has good typesetting features?”

“Well, at the same time, it is not completely crippling, is it? I guess if you want to leave torrents on, it is a pain , yeah. I do research on mine, so i just save what i do all the fucking time. can't be too cautious... Why an intel setup …”

“yeah, of course i have these stupid errors too.. I have an nforce 4 as well, but as mentioned, i got rid of it in the bios. I'd be surprised if leopard was still bugging because of something which was removed altogether from the bios. I am …”

“http://www.insanelymac.com/lofiversion/index.php/t89883.html I have the feeling it is actually related to the mouse skipping problem, but i am not sure. When I leave the computer away, it will eventually have this error and reboot. If i use…”

“Zeph> Yeah, but other things such as matlab, xfig, and macports seem to work so it's a halfway decent solution...?”

“ok, i am an idiot. Somehow the permissions were messed up by the update (?!), so a disk utility/repair permissions solved everything. Bizarre, though.”

“I dunno, I use the same old network driver. I have a nforce4 and marvell yukon, but bios-deactivated, and i access internet through firewire (using my macbook as an expensive wireless modem), but I ma pretty sure it worked before the securi…”

“The security update + Safari 3.1 + time machine update.”

“Actually, without being an expert on topic, similar things happened to me in the past, and there tends to be an "easy" fix to the problem, at least so you can disk mount and disk-utilitize it properly (then a repair disk works for me): just…”

“please ? with strawberry on top? Agrafuese if you see this i believe you solved this problem...”

“ouch, yeah, sorry. i usually am cautious with that, must be tired...”

“Asus A8N32-SLI Deluxe AMD 4400 7800GT And a raptor hard drive... Nope, I don't have the installation DVD in the drive, can I tell him to boot a selected disk partition somehow? Or do something from it that would help? It's not an installati…”

“am I the only one who tried itunes rental? Not necessarily looking for a solution, just wanted to know first if it's normal or not!”

“Thanks for your help guys. So I have to use Vista's horrendous boot thingie? I can't get Darwin to be step one?”

“toggle 1394 on or off? i have the same problem but i think my firewire is off, actually..”
