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

[Regi Yassin]

seriously?

EDIT : here is the link

[rednous]

yep, it's released
needs audio patching

EDIT: unfortunatelly bellow code doesn't work anymore for ALC 888 patching
10.6.8 boots a little bit faster than previous builds

sudo perl -pi -e 's|\x85\x08\xec\x10|\x88\x08\xec\x10|g' /System/Library/Extensions/AppleHDA.kext/Contents/MacOS/AppleHDA

Great

[EGOvoruhk]

Any new device IDs showing up in fun places like video drivers?

[Ricksterm]

Updated and it killed my sound (new AppleHDA) so I had to replace it with the kext from 10.6.2 again. (ALC888S)

boot does seem faster that's for sure.

Works ok on Acer Aspire 5730ZG (5930 variant)

SleepEnabler.kext requires pmVersion to be set to 23 in 10.6.8.

Edit: NeoMatrix125 is correct, SleepEnabler causes a KP. Delete it to boot.

[DutchJan]

works for me.. P5k-vm

[pinarek]

what is the Buildnumber ? 10K540 or higher ?

[blackosx]

Thanks for the post shenor.

Works fine, boot faster than 10.6.7 but killed audio (alc889a)

Edit : Because of layout.xml and platforms.xml like Lion's applehda

[douggle]

I had to use older AppleACPIPlatform.kext and IOPCIFamily.kext but beyond that I m set I also have to do this in Lion Dp4 but thats alright

[BiTRiP]

After this upgrade my system hangs at boot with last line:

[ PCI configuration begin ]

Any ideas why? Booting in safe mode doesn't work either, neither with option GraphicsEnabler=No

[douggle]

Bitrip try older AppleACPIPlatform.kext and or IOPCIFamily.kext stuff

[neomatrix125]

SleepEnabler is a No go for this one

If you have SleepEnabler, Delete the Kext and update!
You will get kernel panics otherwise!

Also BiTRiP

I had that too but it seemed to just go past it and boot :/

[FKA]

hmmm .. Looks like I have GFX problem.

I can see machine on my network but can't vnc into it but GPU output is freeze of last line of verbose text ..

D

[douggle]

FKA use my solution i have this same problem in Lion and when revert those 2 kexts graphics work fine in both 10.6.8 and 10.7 DP4
