mac.nub Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 I fixed this weeks ago when previous 10.5.2 Developer builds were out. I'm surprised no one else did it... 10.5.2 PS2Nub: http://tinyurl.com/ytkzon Ignore the fact the file name says it's for 9C16, that just happened to be the developer build I made it for. It works fine on 10.5.2 Final. Enjoy, ~mac.nub Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lone Wolf Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 Does the PS2Nub.kext work with PS2 keyboard and Usb Mouse connected to Ps2 using an adapter? I tried everything, but I never succeded in getting work the Ps2 ports with vanilla ACPI... I'm under 10.5.2, I also tried the new kext posted by mac.nub, nothing change Any suggestions?

macgirl Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 you need to edit the ACPIPS2Nub.kext info.plist to match the 10.5.2 kexts in the OSBlundleLibraries, if they don't match it wont load. ACPIPS2Nub was created when 10.5.1 and has previous versions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dutchiee (= Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 how would i know if they match? i dont even know what to search for umm im basically having the same problem as everyone else. no ps2 keyboard. i copied the ACPIPS2Nub.kext into the AppleACPIPlatform and what not but it still doesnt load. could someone explain what needs to be changed ?

macgirl Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 Don't copy to the AppleACPIPlatform, leave it directly in the Extensions directory, (check ownership and permission, that ar cause for not loading) check with System Profiler or kextstat (on terminal) if it loads. Alsho Check OSBundleLibraries in its Info.plist, it need to match the current version of your kest or it wont load. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aluminum Sponge Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 FWIW, if anyone's trying to get a PS2 Keyboard working with a USB Mouse, check out this thread for an updated ACPIPS2Nub. http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=96585 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muitommy Posted May 4, 2008 Share Posted May 4, 2008 can this work with desktop computer? i have tried various version of ps2nub, but i got blackscreen or ATAblocking bus error. what can i do to make it work? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macgirl Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 AFAIK ATAblocking error has nothing to do with PS2nub. You can use PS2Nub if you are using the vanilla AppleACPIPlatform (since the vanilla lack of the PS2 kexts) I din't watch a difference with Vanilla or Modded APCIPlatform kexts.

muitommy Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 weird i can't get it work, ps2nub with vanilla acpi ... can't boot up when ps2 keyboard and mouse were plugged in (ps2nub loaded) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vikram Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 Hi, I upgraded to 10.5.4 but lost my trackpad. Can someone post the vanilla ACPI kext? I have tried several combinations of ACPI + PS2 + other plugins and drivers from FFScroll with no luck. It was all working in 10.5.2. Reverting to old kexts doesnt work either... Thanks, Vikram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackobyte Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 Not sure why but I managed to get this working on 10.5.4 I was trying to install Jas 10.5.4 on my Samsung laptop and I kept getting the dreaded "No Keyboard" stuff and also I was getting no Wi-fi which I found strange but the Jas disk was not finding my DW1390 during boot. So I went back to my Leo4All V2 disk, installed that with the correct options, then at reboot I put the Jas disk in and only selected the Jas essentials, the Stage XNU kernal and NVKush (since it was NVInject on the Leo4All). On reboot everything worked perfectly apart from the battery indicator which was solved using one of the methods i found here (can't remember which one, oh my brain!!). Hope this might help someone, I just do not know why it was not working using Jas, maybe that is designed for desktop systems or something. Still it worked really easily using the method above and i now have a perfect 10.5.4 install including throttling using Chun Nan's GenericCPU thing.

kklietuvis Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 EDIT and UPDATELaptop users, rejoice! As many of you know with Leopard we got a new ACPIPlatform.kext and despite netkas' and team's advancement with PC EFI, we lost our PS2 controllers (and thus our keyboards and touchpads/trackpads)! This also effected anybody trying to virtualize leopard. So, as netkas pointed out on his blog there is now a nub that let's us use the generic ACPI! This requires Leopard and the generic or toh kernel as well as the ApplePS2Controller.kext from 10.4.x! Here is the magician's work: http://tgwbd.org/darwin/extensions.html I am very, very thankful. For those of you without compile tools here is the compiled nub. Do not download it without agreeing to licensing terms off the above link and as usual, loading osx on a pc is illeagal unless you are an apple developer... cheers UPDATE: As MacGirl points out the OSBundleLibraries in the Info.plist need to match the current version of your kext. MacNub recompiled it for 10.5.2 here. Note: as MacGirl points out you lose your battery meter with the stock acpi. To install this you must be running PC EFI and leopard and have the stock AppleACPIPlatform.kext handy as well as ApplePS2Controller.kext. If you already have a running leopard install, but don't know how to install kexts, this isn't for you. As netkas says, "PC EFI is not for noobs" and this is on top of it. If you have PC EFI going and want to use it, simply backup your current /System/Library/Extenions/AppleACPIPlatform.kext to a safe location and replace with the original from Leopard and add this nub (this assumes you already have the ApplePS2Controller.kext) to your etensions folder. Repair permissions and off you go. Hey there, REALLY appreciate some help here; I have an Acer Aspire5000 which I'm trying to run SnowLeopard on. When I insert iATKOS s3 ver2 and boot from it, I'll get to the language select menu of the install, and then I'm stuck, because the keyboard and mouse on the laptop are not functional. I know I have to connect a ps2 mouse to get by this, however, I've got another annoying stipulation; there is no ps2 slot. Yes, I found the plastic piece covering where is SHOULD be.... buuut it's not there. it's just a hole, with no pins... I have no idea... So I'm thinking, is there any way add the voodoops2controller.kext, which would otherwise solve this, to the .iso I have FIRST, then burn the disk, and then install SL with the built-in trackpad and keyboard. Than you very much if you could help!!! -kk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
