Justin- Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 Downloading now. Eddie: If you are planning on a Leo4all v4, perhaps it would be a good idea to include the nForce fix for nVidia graphics cards. I've not been able to make this work even once. I'm probably doing it wrong, but if you could include that in a future release I would love you forever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

parcival39 Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Hi, Thanks for the good work for Leo4all-V3 Mobo P5e WS Pro works 95%, need assistance for the remaining 5% I have here: P5E WS Pro (x38) / Q6700 (2.66GHz/3.6GHz) / 4GB RAM 3 SATA HD (AHCI) / 2 PATA CD / DVD I have installed Leo4All-V3 (Vanilla 9.2.2) with SATA-DVD (pata not successfully) It works so far everything without problems, up to two things 1) The two pata CD/DVD are not recognized. Did i forget something with the installation? 2) Leo does not make a complete shutdown, but only "halted". With W2k3/Vista no problem. For me a solution with my pata CD/DVD would be important. I would not like to buy new SATA CD/DVD. Someone has an idea ? Thank you for each assistance. parcival Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geforced Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 The problem is being caused by that nasty jmicron controller I have a asus p5k deluxe mod with the j micron controller and it was giving me that same error. There are many solutions to the problem the best 1 being if you have an extra pc around the house and installing the Osx on it and then putting the hard drive back to the pc that has the jmicron controller once the OS is installed the jmicron controller is supported and the drivers are loaded by default this worked for me. The other options are sata connected drives most of the work if you have the hdic or something like that selected on the bios. Or usb drives they work 2. I'm not 100 percent Shure but I think that if you have a sata DVD rom you don't really need a sata hard drive because once the installer is loaded onto the ram it loads up the jmicron controller driver. My inglish sucks ass but I hope this works 4r u. On starting the DVD with Leo4allv3 I receive the error message: system config file'/com.apple.Boot.plist' not found.

belair Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 Does it Support for Nforce 560 chipsets? I had an HP Pavillon dv2715nr and all v1 and v2 did not recognize the hard drive. Any luck? I have the same laptop and had to install previous versions to an external USB drive. I ended up not using it for this reason as I'm on the road a lot. Let me know.

MuppMan Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 Got a question, do the ACPIPlatform have anything to do with the Sleepfunction ? Or is it all Kernel dependent ? I could wake up from sleep with leo version 1 fine, but with version 3 I only wake up to a bluescreen. Using amd with the 9.2 sleep kernel. Any ideas? thanks.

If you get it make sure to disable your onboard ethernet in your bios... Ahhhhhhh kitmac, thank you so much. I brought a Netgear GA311 card today for $23 and it works perfectly. For the first time since I used to run osx on pearpc and all the time I've spent trying to get x86 builds to work on computers throughout the last 3 years I finally have a fully working version of osx to enjoy.

New2OSx Posted May 3, 2008 Share Posted May 3, 2008 Still trying some different things with the Nforce 560. Will post an update once some progress is made,so far not much luck. Hi Eddie, strange thing is the old kext can recognize and read NTFS v3.01 with out video/system hang. It does not support any other file system even FAT32. I try to re-partiton my HD and using USB HD leopard system to run and the system hang after every partition I click to access to it (I had 2 NTFS partitions, so system hang 2 times when I click to access to those partitions) after that the system works normally. A cent's info. if it could help you to find a solution for Nforce 560. Thx! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
belair Posted May 3, 2008 Share Posted May 3, 2008 Still trying some different things with the Nforce 560. Will post an update once some progress is made,so far not much luck. That would be great for the nforce 560 users As I said before, I have it installed on an external USB drive, but having to have that drive on a laptop defeats the purpose as I am on a plane or in an airport twice a week.

Will_Rogers Posted May 4, 2008 Share Posted May 4, 2008 Well, I am hard-headed and tried it again.... just ran it with little or no add ins and it came up. Yay However, no sure how to correct the few problems left...no audio (Creative audicy 2zs), no network (intel pro100v), and no setup for display (verto 7300gs nvidia). Any assistance would be appreciated. BTW Eric, nice job on this, I'm just slow I'll try to find the info on the above problems. Kinda new to Linux-based stuff.

Yay BTW Eric, nice job on this, I'm just slow I'll try to find the info on the above problems. Kinda new to Linux-based stuff. Will Hey Will Sound like we have the same configuration - but I dont have the Nvidia card - mine is an ATI X300SE, we have similar problems. Eddie was kind enough to point me in the right direction, you'll need to load the right chipset drivers for the system, in my case it was VIA-SB and the Intel drivers (via 3rd party in customization menu). There is supposedly a fix floating around here for the Broadcomm onboard nic, I spent a couple of hours reading today, and in the end decided to stop rotting my time and to buy a compatible network card. Cost me all of $7.99, the sound card is a lost cause as well, so I got myself a USB sound card for $11.99. Of course it didn't stop there, the kid in the candy store took over and approx $125 later... I know as someone else pointed out "where is the fun in that" meaning getting a workaround product - the same question could be asked of bashing your head up against a wall.

Know what you mean about the candy store.... Well I now have the video working. Looks good. However, no joy on the ethernet card or the sound card (the Audigy 2 ZS is incompatible as far as I have been able to determine). So your solution would probably work. Wondered what ethernet card you purchased. I'll check and see which ones will work. Thanks! Will Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack's_Sparrow Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Hey Eddie....I really have to thank you for this Wonderful release..just installed ....most things are working great... The few that aren't are here: 1. If I have my USB mouse connected WHILE I am booting then it doesnt work. (while booting it tells me "couldn't get device to stop within 100ms") This was the issue that was there with the v2 release as well. 2. The same problem with my Wacom Tablet (I guess the root of this issue is the same as above 'cause the the Tablet is detected as a HID/mouse at boot). 3. Nvidia card isn't working fully (gives me full rez options but doesn't detect secondary monitor on my dual monitor setup) or sometimes just doesn't work and keeps the rez stuck at 1024x768. 4. My SoundMAX audio isn't working fully (with Azilla audio my Mic In port is detected as the Audio out). Others who have no audio check your speakers at different ports coz the drivers my have the ports swapped. My Ethernet card (VIA Rhine) is finally working (I am so happy ). It took me time to figure out my settings (I have never networked on mac). well if any one else is having that problem ...here's the solution ...if not ...well... good for you... I have a NetGEAR WGR614 v7 Ethernet+Wireless router. When I set my comp to receive the settings via DHCP, my router provided useless settings (my ip was given as 169.128.154.0) so I put it manual settings and put these settings IP: 192.168.1.(anything between 2-255) Subnet mask: 255.255."255".0 Router: the ip of your router (usually 192.168.0.1/192.168.1.1) DNS Server: the DNS settings provided by your ISP and ITS AHHLLIIVE....:lol Hey if anyone could help me with the usb mouse problem i'd be greatful coz I use my Tablet all the time and would love it to work ... Thanks a million again eddie...love your work... Ciao. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will_Rogers Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Success!!! I got the baby working using a 3Com 905B NIC and an old iMic for sound. Thanks Eric! I do have a strange error. I am using the digital output of my nvidia 7300gs and the system reports that there is no monitor attached. I also cannot get the unit to play DVDs. It says it has no valid display to show the movie. It will play downloads, however. Any ideas? Again, thanks Eric! Will Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will_Rogers Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Hi all ! This would be a great release... but i have some minor problems with it. My config is Intel t2310 with 2 gigs of ram, its an HP 6720 ethernet is intel 82562gt wifi is 3945ABG, graf x3100, vista 32bit sp1. So after the install i got to the registration and it loops and would not get to the desktop, only repeats the registration process. Any solution could be great. And does anybody know if my ethernet could work on it too? HI! Ran into the same problem.... I had turned off the Firewire (don't have one with my mobo)... The system asks if you want to copy from another Mac.... then restarts the registration.... Redid the distro with the firewire left on. Problem went away. Hope this helps!
