stasicasi Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 Hey guys! I've got a few problems on my HTPC. Zotac Zbox HD-ID33 Specs: NVidia ION2 G 210 [NVa8] 0a60 GT200 [GeForce G210] - 512 MB Realtek Ethernet RTL8111 Sound HDA ALC888 Intel Atom D525 1,8 GHz Intel AHCI Chipsatz NM10 ExpressP Atheros AR9285 (doesn't work, but it's not necessary) iAtkos L2 with mach_atom Kernel NVEnabler - QE/CI is on 16 GB SSD with TRIM Support Problems: 1) No iCloud Support I've done everything I could find online to solve this problem. I created with [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] 4.1.0 a MacMini 5,1 identification and with Champlist's Serial Generator a serial. I added built-in Ethernet and PCIRootUID entries in org.chameleon.*.plist. Chameleon 2.1 1708 is installed (edit: now 1706). Any further ideas? Error Message: This Apple ID is valid but is not an iCloud account. 2) 1080p playback is unwatchable (mostly in Plex) My graphics card works, with QE/CI. Video acceleration is working - 720p/24p looks extremely nice - but 1080p doesn't work for me, except in Movist - there I can play back 1080p but this program doesn't support 24p playback. 3) No 5.1 Sound, Passthrough doesn't work In Plex, 5.1 surround sound works, but for example in Movist I can't turn on (Current audio out device does not support S/PDIF). I tried several howtos - nothing works. In Audio MIDI Setup i can't select direct output. The tricks with creating an Aggregate Device or a Multi-Output doesn't work for me either. I set diverse "attemptDTSpassthrough" and AC3 settings - perian is installed. 4) No jumbo packages I can't use jumbo packages with my ethernet card. Dunno why. The card works "flawlessly". But the max value is MTU 1500. I need at least 7000. It worked on Linux and Windows with this HTPC. Networksetup says: Valid MTU Range: 1280-1500 So, that are a few of my actual Problems I hope, someone could help me. Best regards, Stasi P.S. English is not my native language - pls don't be mad with me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buoo Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 Hi man! You could use this way to get your wifi working http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=234570&st=0 About iCloud you could use Chameleon Wizard to get a correct smbios.plist for your hack http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=257464 What is your Ethernet card?

stasicasi Posted December 7, 2011 Author Share Posted December 7, 2011 Hey! Thanks for your reply I've got a Realtek RTL8111 Ethernet card. I'll try these howtos and I'll be in touch when I'm done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like mine, use this http://lnx2mac.blogspot.com/p/realtekrtl81xx-osx-driver.html (the last version) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stasicasi Posted December 7, 2011 Author Share Posted December 7, 2011 I have this driver installed. I used the Chameleon Wizard - There were some missing information in my smbios.plist. I added a pre made smbios (macmini 5,1), but there a still some missing fields. For example: Week of manufacture and unique number. I can create random values, but they aren't saved. UUID and all of the advanced values are empty. What should I put in there? Chameleon says (on boot up): VESA v3.0 14MB (NVIDIA) - Maybe that could be a mistake.

buoo Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 A premade SMBios should work. I suggest you macpro3,1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stasicasi Posted December 7, 2011 Author Share Posted December 7, 2011 Other thing, is it possible to activate an overscan function for boot process? There's such a big black border (ya I know, this is cosmetic ) Now i configured my HTPC as a MacPro 3,1 and updated with Chameleon Wizard my smbios.plist - still no iCloud support with the same error message.

stasicasi Posted December 7, 2011 Author Share Posted December 7, 2011 So, now I'm a bit confused. I found a System Info Tool, and this shows me my hardware. And this differs from that hardware I thought it should be in my HTPC. NVidia G218 instead of G210, maybe that's the problem of the 1080p playback? Ralink RT2860 Network Adapter? Is that my WLAN card? RTL-8110SC instead of a RTL-8111 - Causes this the missing jumbo package support? Should I try this: http://www.chipdrivers.com/chipset/network-adapter/realtek/rtl8110sc/apple-mac-os-x-intel-based/ ? nVidia and Intel Audio Controller. nVidia, HDMI Sound - does this work!? That would be great Hm... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
