In Topic: Atheros AR9285 fix for Snow Leopard

I have desktop too but it's X79/2011 platform. Speedstep doesn't work because Mac OS X doesn't support this platform. So, only my notebook have Mac OS X.

kizwan.. i wonder if kext can be edited to fake it to be 10.6.8 version.

Sorry, I don't know. Did you try Lion IO80211Family.kext kext (AirPortAtheros40.kext)? I'm dual booting with SL & ML. For ML, I'm using this driver.

The reason why I only updated to 10.6.7 is because ATI mobility support. Starting from 10.6.8 & above (Lion & ML), I can't declare (in ATI framebuffer personality) the internal LCD as internal LCD because it will produced corrupted image on the internal LCD. When declaring the internal LCD as not internal, the video is perfect except when display sleep, the backlight doesn't turn off.

check out the AR9287 driver page
http://www.insanelym...howtopic=257011
Only works in Mac_OS_X_10.6.7 with mach_kernel Darwin 10.7.4

update to 10.6.7 then
Substitute the existing mach_kernel in the MAC OS system drive and Chameleon's Extra folder with this one. Use a small tool 'ShowAllFiles' to show the hidden mach_kernel. Delete it and copy the new one in. Then hide the files.

This kext works well for my AR9285 (168c,2b) wireless card in Mac OS X 10.6.7 (vanilla kernel). I only use the kext & doesn't touch my DSDT or kernel to get it working. I only add device ID (168c,2b) in AirPortAtheros9388.kext. It now can support 802.11n network & WPA2 encryption.

Hi bcc9,

My ATI 4570 (mobility) works in Lion but the whole system hang when running Chess (opengl problem??). I want to try Mountain Lion but do you think the Lion problem will be inherited in ML too? I'm still figuring out whether buying ML will be worth it. I don't have other computer I want to hackintosh. I have X79 desktop computer but CPU is not supported, so I don't want to use ML on that. Thanks.
