In Topic: [Solved]"nVidia ROM patching failed" - but system already was running...

yep. but i think i found the cause. since i had minor audio problems, i removed voodoohda.kext. my system appears to be stable for the last few reboots. i use a usb audio dongle at the moment and i am still in search for a working audio kext. i already tried a few. voodoohda was the solution that worked best, but it had some background noises. so i used a patched voodoohda kext, which i found on kexts dot com. as i removed voodoohda, my onboard audio device AND the audio device on the graphics card are not recognized. maybe they are interfering...

okay. next problem. after installing chameleon the graphics card works. but i get kernel panics on boot from time to time. sometimes my system just comes up after the third try. they seem to be randomly - but sometimes the error message tells me that it was unable to load applertc.kext . ideas? robert? ;-)

chameleon and graphicsenabler=yes did the trick. thanks.
it gets recognized with the wrong amount of RAM (1,5GB instead of the real 1GB), but it seems to work for now.
i think i have subversion of the gtx 550ti, that is not very common. (dev id 0x1244 - Manufacturer Palit with 1GB RAM, DVI, VGA and HDMI)
but fine for now. i almost had sold this card.... :-)

i did try that within a boot prompt. but thanks, good hint. i´ll try again with changing this in the boot plist. I will also try with different display devices on DVI/DP/VGA. Actually i am using a full HD display on DVI and a projector on VGA. i´ll check what happens if I change this.
In Topic: Reboot after Kext loading

same thing here. i just can´t figure out what the cause is, as it instantly reboots after loading the kexts. is there a way to log the output during boot? any other ideas?
