10.6.7 upgrade

Wed, 23 Mar 2011 12:30:00 +0000

Few words to say 10.6.7 upgrade went fine using combo upgrade,as usually changing pmversion=0 before rebooting.
The xbench benchmark seems to be much better than 10.6.6 upgrade concerning OpenGL. Ethernet plugging is no more buggy as it was previously and concerning Bluetooth after patching the kext it seems to run much better than any SL version.

10.6.5 upgrade

Thu, 11 Nov 2010 21:39:04 +0000

I upgraded my eeepc to 10.6.5 tonight.It runs alright ,beware puting pmVersion=0 to com.apple.boot.plist before restarting, but sleep doesn't work no more even after upgrading the Sleepenabler.kext provided by kexts.com
Obviously ethernet,bluetooth no more working anymore I patched them.Here's the link for those who are interested in: http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?u5pbagi0i23w45q
I added AppleIntegrateFramebuffer and AppleIntelGM950 in it.
Nevertheless if anybody had a clue for lid sleep I'd be really grateful.

disable f12 eject function?!

Thu, 24 Jun 2010 00:31:32 +0000

following problem:
normally i set the hotkeys Win+F10 'till F12 for volume control with Spark.
so if i press win + f11 volume goes down, if i hold f11 it goes faster etc..

BUT i dont know why because on further installs it worked, if i hold down win+f12 nothing happens.. i was searching and i think it has to do with the eject function that this key has on macbooks without extra eject key. therefore if you hold f12 more then a second it would eject your cd/DVD. this function blocks my volume control.. could this problem caused by the Enable Remote CD - Function of NBI? or do you know any way to disable this eject feature??

Battery app for Hackintosh

Fri, 18 Jun 2010 05:10:54 +0000

Hi, I found this battery app 'Watts' at www.binarytricks.com.

Unlike other battery utilities, it works really well with the hackintosh. You can use it to calibrate your battery or even replace the default battery display at the menu bar.

Google around, you may even be able to find a 'free' version.

10.6.4 upgrade

Wed, 16 Jun 2010 21:46:52 +0000

Few words to say about my 10.6.4 combo upgrade:
First Warning and to clarify things like I saw over many forums and sites ,if you upgrade from 10.6.3 to 10.6.4 REMOVE sleepenabler.kext it causes KP over my 1000HE and replace it to "the generic" one provided from insanelymac.
Kernel doesn't need to be patched in order to boot.
Wifi is not detected anymore (but it is a Broadcom) means I had to modify IONetworkingfamily.kext in order to make it work.
Here is the link: http://www.mediafire.com/file/ndywdcnnkgd/IONetworkingFamily.kext.zip Use it with caution if you don't have the same wifi card as mine.

1000H/Battery

Tue, 08 Jun 2010 03:46:19 +0000

Hey guys,

i've just re-installed my snow leopard partition. Here's my dilemma:

1. Blue Tooth is not working correctly
2. Battery is not showing up properly.
I'm getting the "service battery" message and the battery is fine (~4.5 hours in windows 7).
3. Power management might not be working correctly. The battery indicated that i have says the battery will only last for about 2 hours.

I'm really sick of troubleshooting this minor problem.

I have a 1000H with 2 gigs of ram. Would someone with the same, but working setup be willing to zip up their extra folder and post it for me?

Thanks to anyone that can help me out. This has been driving me nuts for at least 2 days.

GMA950 1000H/1000HA 10.6.3 QE/CI issue

Thu, 15 Apr 2010 17:14:37 +0000

Is anyone experiencing problems with video acceleration and QE/CI after 10.6.3 with the GMA950 kexts? The resolution is working fine, but the menu bar is no longer translucent and video acceleration is bad..even with just opening menus. I've tried all assortments of kexts for the gma950(27ae) and they all experience the same problem. If you have a fix or know what kexts are the issue please PM me.

Intel GMA500 - Quartz - and IWEB

Thu, 08 Apr 2010 12:21:29 +0000

Hi List, i am new to OSX86 and have a few questions:

My Idea was to run Snow Leopard on an EeePC 1101HA most of all to run IWEB.

Now i am facing some problems that have to do with the Used Grafkcard (Intel GMA 500) Quartz and Iweb.
Iweb only displays WhitePages which - after a lot of googling - has to do with bthe fact that i cannot enable Quartz/CI. Which has to do with the fact that there is not a real GMA500 driver…
I found one Link on InsanelyMac that pointed to a GMA500Enabler, but that was somehow dead.
So waht do the experts say: Will there be a GMA500 kext/enabler soon ?
Is there any kind of workaround to enable Quartz anyway or to run iWeb ??

I would very much appreciate any comment.

Problems waking from sleep in 10.6.3

Sat, 03 Apr 2010 04:14:18 +0000

Starting to wonder if I should have upgraded to 10.6.3. I'm now having some fairly strange problems when waking from sleep. After it wakes, I get one brief flash of the screen then it goes black and the trackpad no longer responds (but the buttons do!). Luckily I can hit the power button and "r" to restart, or alternatively VNC from another system.

I've tried this with both EvoRestart and VoodooPower. I've tried it with both the binpatched kernel and Chameleon 2.0rc4, and with the vanilla kernel and the NetBookInstaller Chameleon. I don't use any kernel extensions for clamshell sleep, but rather a DSDT patch. Everything worked fine on 10.6.2.

Any ideas?

Soundproblems?

Tue, 09 Mar 2010 10:26:11 +0000

Lagging or distorted sound with a Kernel Panic or simply a freeze? It can be one or two issues with your Eees kexts. I had both. This is for you if are running with VoodooPower and VoodooHDA.

There are sometimes issues with sound when you are on battery. This is a known issue and has been addressed earlier here. The solution is about optimizing the VoodooPower kext, (thx to Thireus and others). Change your VoodooPower kext or download Thireus version (at his page) and replace. This fixes the lagging sound and hanging or KP. (You can try it out by run on battery and drag things in and out from your trash bin. If it lags or freezes, then you are affected.) Change the kext and your back…

If your Smbios.plist file defines that your machine is a MacBookAir and not a Macbook, as mine was first, you might have a distorted sound. When I changed that setting to MacBookAir my music was distorted when I played iTunes or what ever. The fix I've found is to remove AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement kext according to the forum at VoodooLabs here and here.. I removed the kext and haven't had any issues ever since with distorted sound running as a MacBookAir.

EDIT: If you are under, lets say, 10.5.6 and want to upgrade to 10.5.8 the AppleIntelCPUPower… kext is necessary for your upgrade, otherwise KP during installation. So re-install it with KextHelper, upgrade and later remove the new AppleIntel…. kext if you think it's needed.

Hope this can be of any help and if anyone knows more pls comment.

eeepc kext-packs?

Sun, 07 Mar 2010 23:26:20 +0000

for many users its very difficult to find the right kext-packages for its machine, but what if we share them?

for example i had the package provided with the technow.cc tutorial for my 1000h, for 10.6.2 i needed a new sleepenabler.kext and with netkas' new famesmc.kext my cpu temp is now provided in my istat. what if we could provide informations about updates and so on? it was very… difficult for me to find the updates and a changelog especially for our models arent existing..

and with this questions i want to know which (extra)kexts you have currently running for the 1000h?

Chameleon RC4

I've tried looking up chameleon rc4 to see how it is and if its good for netbooks and found nothing. Has anyone installed it and been successful?

Can't copy Extra folder on SL install

Thu, 26 Nov 2009 22:38:22 +0000

Am following the technow.cc guide to installing SL on my 1000H. I'm on the last step of video 2 where it says copy the Extra fodler from usb into the root of the mac install partition, but when I try it comes up with the error:
"The item "Extra" can't be replaced because it's invisible."
I have tried creating a folder in the root called "Extra" but it says: "The name "Extra" is already taken. Please choose a different name."

Don't upgrade to 10.6.2! Atom-chip is not supported.

Apparently Apple finally decided to ban hackintosh on netbook.

Read here: http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2009/11/snow-leopard-update-blocks-intel-atom-kills-hackintoshes/

I personally think they are going to launch the tablet Mac early next year, netbook running OSX is bad for their business.
