Hello everyone, I've installed Mac OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.8 on my ASUS Eee PC 1000H (1,6 GHz Intel Atom N270, GMA 950 0x27ae, 1 GB RAM, 160GB HDD). I've managed to get a lot of things to work, but there's something that frustrates me, I mean, the GMA 950 works good, I've native resolution and QE/CI working, but there are two annoying bugs, the first one is when I open iTunes visualizer in full screen mode, the graphics gets slow and choppy, and there are a lots of lines visible; the second one is in System Preferences, where the titlebar sometimes disappears. So, does anyone know where can I get 10.6.8 GMA 950 Kexts (0x27ae) without these bugs? Thanks in advance.

Thanks for replying. I'm using Nawcom's Legacy Kernel v2, and I installed GMA950 kext and Integrated Framebuffer kext found at osx86, I think that they are GMA 950 Kexts modified to show 0x27ae in order to give me graphics acceleration. I'm not using a DSDT at the moment.

Thank you very much for replying and trying to help me, but I switched back to Leopard 10.5.6 (which runs better than Snow), Snow Leopard 10.6.8 is too unstable, probably because of the patched kernel, I got too many kernel panics even by doing simple things like scrolling a webpage in Safari. I actually got some GMA 950 kexts that works fine with Leopard, I have no Sys Preferences bug neither the iTunes one, only thing is just that some graphics animation in Leopard are a bit less fluid than in Snow Leopard such as the Genie Effect or the apps bouncing in the Dock. But I think that's just a Leopard thing maybe, not related to Kexts.
