Mac OS X Lion (Developer Preview) Released

mitch_de · March 6, 2011

Ok. now only two Problems.. cant activate QE/CI on my Geforce 9600GT

and my System Runs too fast.. the System-Clock is running in onehour about One Hour and 10 Minutes...

Think thats why Videoplayback is out of Sync between Sound and Video and Sound chops every few Seconds...

But how to fix that without the Busratio-Flag?

You can use DSDT injection .

Here my DSDT part for my running 9600GT (512 MB).

You should loacate the postition in your dsdt ,

the gpu part starts at: Device (GFX0) , GFX0 is an free name

Your dsdt should also have an: Name (_ADR, 0x......) in the PCI slot your card holds.

Insert that Device (GFX0) ... below that Name (_ADR,...) .

If you never had changes in the dsdt, you may need that MCDP (...) methode (an subroutine made by some dsdt hero) also somewhere above (at the beginning) of the dsdt.

 Device (PCI0)
       {
           Device (PEGP)
           {
               Name (_ADR, 0x00010000)
               Device (GFX0)     
               {
                   Name (_ADR, Zero)
                   Name (_SUN, One)

anyone get working on P45 Chipset motherboard?

i follow this guide

http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=250415

and

http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php...250104&st=0

no method is working

my motherboard is P5Q-SE

DaviDemon · March 6, 2011

Hey, can someone help me with HDMI audio injection with DSDT? All I really need now is HDMI audo and sleep to work.

Here are my solutions to some things right now (without a DSDT), also in my guide in the forum somewhere:

- FakeSMC.kext (obvious, required for a running x86 system)

- EvOreboot.kext (enables Shutdown/Restart functionality for most boards without a DSDT)

- NullCPUManagement.kext (disables AppleCPUManagement.kext which KPs on some boards without a DSDT)

- LegacyAppleYukon2.kext (enables Ethernet connections on most Yukon-based cards)

- AD1988b.Fix.kext (currently not working, requires DSDT and AppleHDA.kext edit)

- JMicronATA.kext (enables "SuperDrive" or JMicron controller on some boards)

- IOAHCIBlockStorage.kext (cosmetic, makes external drives appear internal)

- ElliotForceLegacyRTC.kext (prevents the CMOS error occuring on some boards)

- VoodooHDA.kext (enables most onboard sound devices)

Untested:

- SleepEnabler.kext (10.6.x) (enables the sleep function without a DSDT)

- ATY_Init.kext (I don't really need it, but it works for those who do need it, enables GFX detection)

- AppleAzaliaAudio.kext (I don't think I need it, never did, enables audio on some devices)

More...?

It's my progress so far... Maybe someone can help me with DSDTs.

If I use the current [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] (v1), and place the DSDT in "efi > dsdt" then it causes KPs due to HPET errors.

If I use the under-construction [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] (v1.2) and place the DSDT in the same folder, it doesn't show up anything, and doesn't load up Lion.

If I place the DSDT in "efi > acpi > oem" folder, it boots up normally, but I can't really tell if the DSDT is being used (maybe someone help me here), of [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] (v1.2)

I hope some of the kexts stated earlier helps people with Shutdown/Restart functionality, and a few others.

Btw, when I use "G" to Generate AMLs in [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url], nothing really happens, and when I check the folders, all I see is "backup_dsdt.aml" which... doesn't really do anything. So I'm not sure if it's working or not.

Motawa · March 6, 2011

Hey Guys.

My question is. Is it actually usefull? Is it productive?

Does safari, itunes, ilife, logic etc work?

mitch_de · March 6, 2011

Hey Guys.
My question is. Is it actually usefull? Is it productive?

Does safari, itunes, ilife, logic etc work?

No not produktive. Some Apps (running well in SL) didnt work / hang/ crash.

For me its only usefull to prepare the Lion switch early for the upcoming release.

I dont use this Alpha LION for anything else than tests.

This is also the reason, why it doenst matter to use EFI USB Bootstick insted of installing that on the HD. I will wait for upcoming chameleon LION relases, i am sure they come (without KPs in the first beta Lion bootloader) within the next two months.

Motawa · March 6, 2011

Thanks!

Did you get QE ? I Think no..try to using DVD-Player please..

Had worked twio Days, still no QE.

When i install any kext for my video card , it doesn't work all all , can u help me please ?

tdtran1025 · March 6, 2011

Does you have QE/CI enabled?
Please, test with DVD-Player..

thanks.

Rene

Yes, I have QE/CI and everything. Airport is now called Wi-Fi and very cool. I tried to look for sound solution for ALC888, as mentioned in this thread. But the sole focus on getting everything right has put me in a absent-minded mode for the last three days. I even tedted all the programs I have on OS X SL, too.

Thanks for the quick reply.

Hi! Could someone check what version of samba is pakaged with this release.

To check it you only have to do a: 'smbstatus' in a termina

l window.

Thank you all.

On the off-chance that the existing RC3 will still *install* (basically, what's needed is a bootfile swap for Lion), I grabbed the build 658 (RC3 English) installer (but I haven't done anything with it yet, as I still need to grab a thumb-drive) in case there hasn't been a new installer created by then.

thks

but i have KP ( Double fault )

i tried many times , but nothing to do !

when i select my installer stick it goes back to chameleon.

Later i will rebuild my usb stick and try again.

mikeutter · March 7, 2011

can you point me which version of voodoops2 that works?

my notebook stuck after the welcome video, asking for keyboard.. and sadly i don't have a spare USB keyboard..

thanx

Yes, my 6720s keyboard and trackpad are not working as well.

I put the voodoops2 kext in S/L/E and also on [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] usb disk.

It is incredibly slow (suspecting wi-fi as said on this thread) but boots and asks for a keyboard to connect :-(

Have you had any luck in getting your built-in keyboard/trackpad working?

(Machine is hp Compaq 6720s laptop, running Snow Leopard beautifully thanks to juanerson and BlackCH and some other friends here)

tdtran1025 · March 7, 2011

check through the posts, it's been mentioned quite a few times.
look for blackosx's posts, i got the solution from him.

sorry I can't be more help, but I am not digging through 14 pages, lol. perhaps look or send him a PM?

good luck!

No need–VooDooHDA version 2.56 actually does the trick. I am happy to report here that all the apps from my 10.6.6 have been transferred over to Lion, and running without a glitch. LaunchPad is very useful, indeed.

hey guys!

when i start the instalation i get an "Error setting resolution: Unsupported" message. Any idea why?

Please help...

Rene204 · March 7, 2011

Working fine with Netkas-Solution here, just no QE/CI,

but no need to install ATY_Init.kext and Disabler.kext.

Timing is ok, Video plays without Errors and the Systemtime is right.

Highspeed-USB is working fine too...

Just the QE/CI Problem...?

hey guys!

Try U- or D-Key on your WIRED Keyboard (not the Apple ALU, that is not working).

So you can change the Resolution of the Boot-Menue.

Rene204 · March 7, 2011

I see the boot menu. No problems there. It's just when i select the Mac Os X Base System drive, everything hangs and i get the error.

In Boot-Menue, if you See it, press "M", so you can edit your Configuration, (if needed), Escape "Esc" can you leave that, you should press "P" to save your Changes to the SMBIOS.plist...

try this...
