rhcamilex Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Hi, i was searching several days for the artifacts solution (Intel HD3000 ML 10.8.2), and i want to share a solution for this. Basically the problem is in AppleIntelSNBGraphicsFB.kext. when it is not load in kernel cache, (at first boot, usually you can see less artifacts, and increasing, after second boot, etc). To solve this, you need to use the keyword: UseKernelCache to Yes. in org.Chameleo.BootXXX... Try it and let me know if this works for you. P.S: If you cant boot with this Keyword, or system hangs. Then boot in verbose mode and check what is the problem. In my case i had trouble whit ACHI disk (still workin for root device), and i fix it with bcc9 patch. (look here in insanelymac) regards P.S2: sorry about my english. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rhcamilex Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 Rob, today i was playing with the kext AppleIntelCpuPowerManagement (Trying to solve speedstep in my Laptop), and when i boot with new kext patched by me from vanilla one, OH NO!! the artifacts back, in others word, the problem is also related to this kext and good patch applyed over him. Here is it for mountain lion: http://www.tonymacx86.com/mountain-lion-desktop-support/60912-patched-appleintelcpupowermanagement-kext-10-8-a.html. If you have NullPower (whatever) kext. Then do all to reeplace with AppleIntelCpuPowerManagement. (it's mind you need to put your SSDT.aml in /Extra, etc) Regards My english, some times look really bad! LOL sorry!

MacNB Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 I have an Acer S3 ultrabook and have these occasional but random artifacts. Anyone tried any other suggestions to fix these artifacts ? I already have UseKernelCache=Yes and that does not help. I am already using the latest FakeSMC.kext and that does not solve the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob1980 Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 I resolved this on the dell laptop to the point where it is as good, if not better than my probook. (probably the same to be fair) I used fakesmc 4.2 I believe, it may have been a newer one, cant remember (the laptop is my friends, I dont have it here) I moved all Kexts to SLE and usekernelcache=yes, Some people have had success with third party apps, I forget the name of it, but its to do with the screen frequency i think. for me, it was a simple case of repairing permissions and rebuilding the cache again. I used kext wizard instead of kext utility. Im not using nullpower management, I used a modded bios, but the applepowermanagement modified kext should work ok. There are other factors that can cause the artifacts to be worse, like dual booting apparently. There are fixes, but from what I have seen, it can be a different answer for every user depending on kexts used, DSDT etc... I would suggest patching your own DSDT to start with if you are using another patched one, that made life much easier for me with multiple problems when working on my mates n5110.

rhcamilex Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 Rob, I'm glad to know that when you used "UseKernelCache = Yes" worked. All additional steps that you explain, I thought it was obvious, sorry for not explaining that FakeSMC also needed 4.2 or higher, and you had to have your kext in S / L / E.
