I just tried the Voodoo kernel as part of my boot-132 iso. My system specs are in the sig. It is an Intel P4 with SSE3 and hyperthreading (2 threads). The system is a retail dvd install + chameleon and Extra/Extensions on the boot cd.

 

As far as I can tell at the moment, everything is running correctly. The SystemProfiler shows:

 

  L2 Cache:	512 KB

I have never tried speed step or sleep.

 

Hmm cache info is incorrect. Fix is in progress.

 

LOL...

 

Yeah, works fine here. Almost native speeds too. So does Parallels. ;)

Darwin Kernel Version 9.4.0 ToH & StageXNU:xnu-1228.5.20/BUILD/obj/RELEASE_I386

 

OK. A bit more context is helpful - if you want to give it a try again, please boot into the beta kernel, start VMWare, and when it panics and reboots, start stagexnu kernel and look in /var/log/System.log --> Please file a bug report on the google code page (link on first post) and attach the System.log file.

 

is there any specific kexts I need to use for sleep and speedstep to work?

 

For sleep you just need to do  > Sleep (or shut laptop lid).

For speedstep, install kext in my sig.

Thanks for the fast response mercurysquad, I am getting closer to solving the problem.

 

I disabled bluetooth, wireless and usb legacy support in the dell bios and tried sleep again and this time it did not hang immediately, i got the mouse cursor back and it hung when i tried to click on finder!

Well I kind of suspected this, gave that a try but unfortunately the lockup is instant, nothing in the system log, jumps right from the last thing I did ( disk utility ) before starting VMware into the next boot. B)

 

 

In any case, if there's another way to get the info you guys need let me know. :P

You might try to boot into single user mode - using the -s kernel flag at the F8 boot prompt.

 

Then try:

tail -n 25 /var/log/System.log

 

That should give you the last 25 lines of the system log. e.g.,

 

Rainbow:~ lrh$ tail -n 5 /var/log/System.log

I did the command in terminal mode but it should be the same in single user mode.
