XQYZ Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 8.10.* Gives me error messages like /etc/rc: line 226: 26 Illegal Instruction kextd Please run grep -n "" /etc/rc | grep "22.:" to show us the content of the line 226 (and the lines around it). Just copy and paste it here. I'm unsure why you get this error. Are you using Tubgirl's AMD Release or this XXX thing? edit: Anyone can confirm System Profiler is not working? Maybe we need the bin, sbin stuff too. Need to have a closer look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thegodfaza Posted November 18, 2007 Author Share Posted November 18, 2007 iTunes is my major problem since i like music. Redownloading it from apple doesn't fix it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Chops Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 On a slightly different topic, is iTunes and all that safe to download straight from apple on an AMD machine? EDIT: iTunes freeze on preferences confirmed. Can't get to System Profiler anyway because I can't get to the About This Mac window, probably due to loginwindow.app UPDATE: When iTunes 7.5 is installed via Software Update the preferences window no longer freezes, however some of the text is missing and when you go to advanced, iTunes will shut down completely. Neither Console nor dmesg shows anything interesting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kioo Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 Hi all, I have 8.10.1 kernel. Itunes's preferences don't work. (Maybe because /System/Library/Components are missing ?) But System Profiler works great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XQYZ Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 I tryed around with adding Components and other folders which kinda crashed my system. Hopefully we'll find out what's causing bugs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Chops Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 Yeah, I wonder if anyone else has had that problem with /etc/rc I haven't really found out anything, theres one topic on this forum that makes mention of my problem, but nobody fixed it in that thread I don't think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ocbaud Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 it did work for me. like the others, system profiler and itunes both crash. updated from 10.4.8 to 10.4.11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kioo Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 Maybe the last kernel is needed ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Chops Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 Yeah, the update works for me so long as I use 10.4.8's kernel, otherwise I get either kernel panics or freezing on bootup, and I upgraded straight from 10.4.8 to 10.4.11 as well EDIT: So as it turns out, the only kernel I've been able to use so far has been the 8.8.1 kernel. Everything else simply doesn't work and I'm not quite sure why. I'll try replacing the extensions now, see what happens UPDATE: Okay, after updating all of the kernel extensions, besides the ones that should be left behind, I'm still having the problems with the kernel. As I've said before 8.8.1 will still work, however 8.9.1 throws a kernel panic with no backtrace and 8.10.3 throws Illegal Instructions on kextd and loginwindow.app (there's more, I just can't remember what they are right now). I hope theres some way to fix all this, as I would really like to have an up-to-date kernel, and my About this Mac and System Profiler still do not work, no matter what I do. If anybody needs more info, I'll be happy to provide it, I just want to get this stuff fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add to /System/Library/System proflier/ Then chmod and chown No need to even reboot! And the problem with iTunes Prefs is a CPUID that hasn't been patched, run Marvin to see what it finds.

Red Chops Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 Excellent, system profiler now works!

Red Chops Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 Well, I can worry about fixing iTunes later. My main concerns right now are why I can't upgrade my kernel, and why does About this Mac restart Finder every time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luminaire Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 I'm not having this problem. The one with about this mac, I mean. If we fix all these things, maybe it can be put in a central topic? I would still like to see the iTunes frameworks fixed, so I'm going to look for a fix for that. Also kramer, I wouldn't have a clue where to find those framework Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luminaire Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 Red Chops: Have you used the 10.4.4 loginwindow, or decrypted this one? That might do the trick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Chops Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 I've tried the 10.4.4, I've tried the 10.4.8 one that I know worked before the upgrade, I just can't explain it at all... Also my System Profiler does work now after applying some patch, can't remember where it's from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luminaire Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 From this topic. If i recall correctly, page 2 . How the heck are you able to test system profiler if you can't login? :S I messed a bit with frame works, and putting these back: /Volumes/Mac Bak/System/Library/Contextual Menu Items /Volumes/Mac Bak/System/Library/Frameworks /Volumes/Mac Bak/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks Made iTunes' preferences act normal. Not sure which though, I'm in the proces of testing a bit. Especially since Photoshop CS3 acts funky. Doesn't want to save as, or use the built in web save function.

Red Chops Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 I'm able to log in fine, loginwindow.app controls the "About this Mac" screen as well as other things. Anyway, seems like you're making good progress on iTunes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luminaire Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 Well, thing is, it's not just the preferences that got messed up. It's the get info screen of songs as well. I'm sure a lot of other apps got some bad juju too. Only thing good about this update, is safari 3.0.4. And I can't really find the framework to get just that working. I think a lot of things just didn't get decrypted the way they should have. Like a lot of frameworks. I think everybody is still better off using 10.4.10. Not even the .11 kernel works for AMD yet.
