According to my Software Update Mac Os X Update 10.5.7 is available for download. I'm currently downloading it now and will give it a try. I'm waiting to download it as System Update is telling me it'll take 25+ hours to download a 500meg file. Perhaps the servers are getting slammed now.

Is it available for anyone else? I can't find it on Apple's website.

Good, wondering if will be easy to update without a kernel panic

I hope doesn't needs DSDT.aml

Downloading now. 40 min

I get it with 2,2 MB/s KabelBW (Germany)

Downloading now on a real apple intel iMac "less than 2 minutes" with a 2.5 MB's internet connection

I will wait for the dust to settle before applying the update

Same, also a bit weary of the whole 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it' general rule if it all goes wrong... since it's typically my luck lol!

So I'll let some others ginea pig it first

OOOMGGGG
Sorry had to say it

Please report back on install people?
Thnx!

My gui Software Update is not showing it yet. However, the command line is showing it. Time to wait for people a little less cautious than I.

currently downloading on my G5 imac, says it will take 3 hours on an 8mb connection :S

Edit: Just failed on me saying checksum doesnt match, it only managed to download 14mb

Upgrade went fine for me. Gigabyte ga-ep45-ds3l e6400 6gb ddr2 sata+ide disk drives Chameleon RC1. Only had to re-apply AppleHDA.kext and HDAEnabler.kext to get sound working.

Has anyone tried this with a core i7? If so, does it work with the vanilla kernel? Are there any support kexts needed when you use the vanilla kernel?

I haven't tried it on my Hackintosh but I did try in my Leopard VMware VM and it trashed it. Won't boot after the update. Weird thing is, even in verbose mode it shows nothing but a black screen while the CPU is pegged at 100%.

I'm interested in this update because it's suppose to fix something related to the mouse and video performance with nVidia cards. I'm wondering if it fixes the AppleUpstreamUserClient.kext issue where iTunes and video playback would screw up the mouse.

Update went fine without any intervention

Hi people,

For those who stil wonder...

Download- less then 2 min
Install- another 4 min
Reboot- just as new

What kind of setup do you have?

Link to delta update (442Mo)

and to combo update (729Mo)

Noobs please search... this the 7th update, always same issues, always a lot of ***** and assisted noobs...

Just updated, everything works fine including sound (alc889a via dsdt)

If it is slow, just download it direct from here. It took all but 5 mins to download.

Leopard 10.5.7 Combo Update Link

Wonder if it fixes the 8800 GT and other card mouse lag in Quicktime and iTunes

i dont have any lag with my 8800 gt... got 512mb version from msi

http://support.apple.com/downloads/Mac_OS_X_10_5_7_Update

Download didn't take long for me... under 7 minutes.

About to install.. I'll report back soon. Hopefully!

(check my sig for my specs)

Yup, I still have the lag after update (on the utility install, not patched), and I have an Assus 8800GT with 512MB.

Any news about the ATI 4670 and/or 4770 support? I hope they added it.

Thanks.

all good here..

worked fine, had to manually delete intelcpumanagement and fix network

Updated smoothly without any issues - using combo update without any special tweaking - like on the real mac Followed by another Safari 4.0 public beta update...

Did someone with AMD cpus tried to update?

I'm running 10.5.5 - I know there are issues updating to 10.5.6 (stuff you have to do) so I avoided it.

[stupid question]So if I upgrade straight to 10.5.7 using the combo update, will I have any problems?[/stupid question]

Sorry for noob-ness (still learning).

I had some of the same problems with this update that I did with the 10.5.6 update. The same fixes worked this time too. (I had to fix my sound and Time Machine again.) Just follow one of the guides for installing 10.5.6, and use the 10.5.7 Combo Update instead, and it should work fine.

Retail disk install on Acer 5920g, had issues updating from software update.

But installed from dmg download, tho there was a time when restarting the screen just kept looping with a blank. Did a forced reboot and OsX rebooted 2 times B4 finally returning back to normal.

Seems to be a lot more responsive after the update tho

Even the scrolling in Safari seemed to have gotten smoother on my machine!
Flash is much better also!

kek

gigabyte EP45-DS3
q8200
8gb pc2 8500 mem
retail + voodoo 9.5 + chameleon 2

install went smooth and I didn't have to reinstall voodoohda to get sound again.
What I do notice is that systemprofiler, the first tab won't work, under hardware.
You know that's the screen that first pop ups after you click for more info, subcategories all work.
It says some error occured while gathering information.

Another interesthing fact it displays my ram as:

Bank0/1/A0:

Grootte: 2 GB
Type: DDR2 SDRAM
Snelheid: 667 MHz
Status: OK
Fabrikant: N/A
Onderdeelnummer: N/A
Serienummer: N/A

I never had that make/partnumber/serial number before? just the first 3.
It's almost nothing but I'd like to have iy fixed, anyone knows?

It's not crashing as told earlier in this thread and that solution didn't work for me.

just thought i would give my experience with the new update...

asus p5n-e sli
core 2 6420 2.13ghz
3gbz 667mhz ram
8500GT efi strings
alc883 audio

I decided to download the combo update and install, after installing i then ran the anv kernel installer again to rewrite the kernel (not sure if this needed doing, i can't run vanilla).

Restarted twice and things seem ok, networking and graphics all working fine, i had to reinstall sound drivers and the system profiler has an error on the first tab as with the above poster.

I wonder if that method would work on an AMD system...

Just tried the update on my Hackintosh. No go.

I'm using a nearly 100% vanilla install. Straight vanilla install, remove AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement, add dsmso.kext + NVkush, that's it.

The first time I tried to install the update the whole machine froze at about "14% writing files". So I went into a different OSX install and installed the update from there on to the other drive (this is how I installed 10.5.6 FWIW).

Anyway, after the 10.5.7 update when I boot it stops after the "found boot device". Normally this means that dsmso.kext is not installed but that's not the case here so I'm baffled.

Would an update such as this need a new dsmso.kext? I somehow doubt it. Weird... my machine is so vanilla, I didn't expect any issues.

just noticed i can't open dmg's anymore, re-applied the seatbelt fix but to no avail

Did the install on my Core i7 system had to download and install the update.
after the update finished it asked me to reboot. but got stuck at the blank blue screen with the spinner doohickey but after the reset button was pushed it booted then rebooted then booted and rebooted again then cam up running just fine

Sorry for noobing around but 10.5.7 broke AppleHDA as in if i don't remove it, kernel panic.

Any way to fix this?

A quick tip that worked for me.
THe autoupdate would not work until I deleted the com.apple.softwareupdate.plist

Once I deleted and ran the auto update it worked fine.

It is located in
library/preferences

Use the AppleHDA of 10.5.6. See http://netkas.org/


All works well here, native ICH10 on P45 board. Ok then, anyone know when 10.5.8 is due?

Nevermind, found it.

Download the AMD patcher here: http://w18.easy-share.com/1702640535.html

Hi all,

I just tried updating my Dell 1525 from 10.5.6 to 10.5.7.

I installed the combo update, but then during installation I got a gray screen saying
'You need to restart your computer. Hold down the Power button for several seconds or press the Restart Button'

And now whenever I restart I get the same message. In verbose mode I note a BSD: kernel_task panic.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

No issues here, via Software Update.

hi all,

it work fine for me , some probleme with my GMAX3100 resolved by reinstalling the GMA's kext

Shuttle SG33G5 here. Installed 10.5.7 Delta Update manually (Just download and install) Reboot "-v -f -x" and have fun. Everything works, Chameleon rocks!

I installed 10.5.7 today using Software update and besides having to reinstall sound, everything works perfectly.

I am running OS X retail with Chameleon 2 RC1

Gigabyte P35-DS3L
Core 2 Duo 2.66ghz
4gb Kingston HyperX
GeForce 8800GTS 512 (G92)

Will attempt a normal software update to 10.5.7 from a 10.5.6 Retail Boot-132 install as soon as I finish copying approx 94 GB of files off a drive that I have to reformat (1 hour left :/).

Installed 10.5.7 on my system: iDeneb 10.5.6 running on a Asus p5q-SE w/ modded bios, E7200@3GHz, 2GB 1066 ram, 9600GT 512MB

I had that strange loop - after the update finished and I clicked restart the screens turned blue and nothing happened for about 10 minutes. The screens kept flickering every couple seconds like they're refreshing, but the HD wasn't doing anything and I restarted.

Next boot I started in verbose, saw the desktop for a second, and then it froze but one of the screens turned back into single user with an error.

The next restart went fine - everything's now working except system profiler and sounds on my board. I'm fixing that now...
