guys who have a HP 530 notebook, if you have a working kext for battery meter, upload it somewhere and post the link here, please.

thanks

[nickhe]

jsut download this http://forum.insanel...showtopic=14912 and use kext helper to add it but i've had the problem when it tought it was a desktop

[i_Geek]

unfortunately, this doesn`t work for me...

any other suggestions ?

[i_Geek]

any updates ?..

[nickhe]

what distro are you using becouse it worked on kalyway and leo4all

[i_Geek]

iatkos v2.0i (10.5.2)

[nickhe]

heres mine add it witth kext helper but i recomend that you use Jas or kalyway releases becouse iAKTOS Just mess up yoiur pc and alot of things doesn't work btw what CPU  are you using
 PowerManagement.bundle.zip   63.68K   44 downloads

[i_Geek]

i have  CoreDuo T2400 processor

[nickhe]

Ok but try the kext but i strongly recomend that you use Kalyway or JaS thats what i do and everything works

[i_Geek]

i`ll certainly try this

regarding iAtkos, everything works nicely except the battery meter. btw, battery meter is working when i install the system, but as soon as i finish the install process and reboot - it`s gone!

maybe i will try iDeneb to see how it`s working, too.

[nickhe]

the problems with iDeneb and iAKTOS is that the fan isn't working properly as in kalway and JaS in JaS it work normal and on mkalyway it's fixed

[i_Geek]

hmm


didn`t noticed fan problems.. can you be more specific on this issue ?

maybe i missed this, and i have the same problems...

[nickhe]

that the fan doesn't spin at all or it spins breafe like 3 secounds and then stops and that the pc get really hot that was the issus i got when i use IAKTOS on my HP 530

[i_Geek]

well... the kexts didn`t helped...

downloading ideneb v1 and iatkos v4 to see what`s new...

thanks, anyway, for the effort

[nickhe]

ideneb Is the way i would go iAKTOS is just a waste of Bandwith

[i_Geek]

don`t know why you don`t like so much iatkos, but i`ve installed ideneb. it`s quite nice, BUT still no battery meter))

it seams that OSX is against me on this behalf. don`t know what to do next. guess i`ll leave it this way...

[nickhe]

an easy anwser i installd iAKTOS on 6 pcs and theres so many problems and upgrading is harder then kalyway and JaS and all other realeses becouse stuff stop working and the fan does't work on many pcs
