macprodan Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 Think we need a Dual Core Thread with everyones methods of getting both cores working without stutters. I can't Put my finger on which method works seems sometime theres no stutters and other times there is. Currently im in OSX with just the Platform=ACPI flags with no stutters, sometimes IdleHalt=0 works and at other times it dont. I hate the fact that for a trouble free system some users may disable one core. when adding kernel flags to boot.plist remeber to keep them on all one line. i.e <key>Kernel Flags</key> <string>-v platform=ACPI idlehalt=0</string> -- all on one line someone's a smart ass... looked i fixed the spelling you happy now, can you sleep at night.

wesley Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 None of those worked for me. The only workaround was disabling one core (cpus=1). Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/12701-amd-dual-core-fix/#findComment-80545 Share on other sites More sharing options...
