Voodoo XNU Kernel - Release Candidate .. released ;-)

[MGJulius]

Hey,

 

This kernel works great on my AMD rig (See Specs) in 64-bit mode

 

Unfortunately I don't have a serial for geekbench so I can't post differences between x86 and x64

 

But so far all apps I have launched have run flawlessly and no kernel panics

 

Thx to all the voodoo XNU team for this amazing kernel which finally bridges the gap between AMD/Intel/SSE3/SSE2

 

Edit: Oh...and for some weird reason my system profiler says my clock speed is "3.7Ghz" o.O

[BladeRunner]

You updated from software update?  There's your problem.

Follow netkas' instructions to upgrade... this process worked fine with my P4 530 box from 10.5.2 => 10.5.5.

http://netkas.org/?p=50

Off to test RC on said P4.

 

the other, and somewhat safer, method is to use disabler.kext or one of it's peers. They load at boot time and disable the IntelCPUPowermanagement kext which is what causes the hang. The reason it's a preferred method is that it protects you from Apple installing a new version of the power management kext and allows the use of the software update.

[newnekton1]

Done that and reset the the CMOS jumpers blah blah and still get Fatal Error on CMOS.

Not too unhappy 'cos have the E-FIX for just such an occasion!

 

Go change your CMOS battery.

There are a few kexts that disables this kext if it gives your system trouble.  Not included here, but easily found.  Disabler and Null CPUPM.

[Maniac10]

In my pc the forcedeth kext won't let it sleep, it gives a kernel panic, tried the nforcelan kext and no problem so far.

 

Thanks for this release, everything's working as it should even in 64 bits. Will test it with geekbenck and post the results.

Report: A fantastic result.

 

My system passed all the Intel related tests in the test package. And, VMWare Fusion has installed without a system freeze for the first time ever.

 

Since installing the RC kernel I have also been able to eliminate my patched System.kext and thanks to a kext by SuperHi and a PS/2 collection pulled together by ~PcWiz my override Extensions are now:

 

AppleACPIPS2Nub.kext
AppleDecrypt.kext
ApplePS2Controller.kext
Disabler.kext
IOATAFamily.kext
SMBIOSResolver.kext

 

These are all in the EFI partition and the install is pure vanilla - except for one compromise for VMWare Fusion. I had to copy the voodoo kernel into the OS X partition as /mach_kernel to get Fusion to run without causing a kernel panic.

 

The system is still booted using the voodoo kernel in the EFI partition so if Apple upgrades the kernel the worst that should happen is that Fusion will not run until I replace the kernel.

 

So far, I have installed Fedora 10 under Fusion and I am converting my Parallels WinXP vm now.

[mercurysquad]

so with the on the fly opcode patching will amd users be able to update via software update?

All it does is close the difference between Intel and AMD. So follow intel guides for updating. You can update stuff like iTunes and not worry about anything, but for major updates it is the same as patched Intel setups.

 

 

The ONLY people who can update straight from software update without worrying about anything is people with a full retail / vanilla install using an apple-supported intel cpu.

 

To restate:

The kernel closes the gap between Intel and AMD - NOT between vanilla and patched

Thanks so much for all the hard work you guys put into the voodoo kernel project!

 

I updated to 10.5.5 from 10.5.4 using the methods outlined in the sticky, in the New Releases forum...then I downloaded and installed the Voodoo RC kernel. There's one small problem - my system profiler crashes/won't start up.

 

What I did to install was literally what was in the kernel documentation file:

 

1) copy the 'mach_kernel.voodoo' to my system root folder. I couldn't see the original mach_kernel in the root folder - is something wrong?

 

2) modify the com.apple.Boot.plist file to include "mach_kernel.voodoo" instead of "mach_kernel"

 

my system profile app crashes when I try and open it which usually happens when the Kernel and OS version don't line up (10.5.5 with 9.4.0) for example.

 

Did I install the voodoo kernel correctly? Otherwise, everything works fine with my system

 

I've got a Dell Dimension 8400, a 3.0ghz P4 HT, if it helps - thanks!

Were you using a patched System.kext or AppleSMBIOS.kext? If so, they may be causing the problem if they were back level / older kext. With the voodoo RC kernel you should be able to run with the vanilla System.kext and the same for the SMBIOS kext if you use something like the AppleSMBIOSResolver.kext from SuperHI.

 

Those might be reasonable places to start.

[KellyKelly]

I have problems with my mouse. My mouse will randomly jumping around and uncontrollable or freeze when both core are enabled. Under CPUS=1 the system run very smooth with 1 core. Also my processor recognized as "intel core duo 3ghz" instead of Intel pentium d. My system spec is in my signature.

[Beerkex'd]

my processor recognized as "intel core duo 3ghz" instead of Intel pentium d.

 

That's normal, it's being set by the kernel to increase software compatibility.

See earlier post by Mercurysquad in this thread for details.

 

Are you using vanilla AppleSMBIOS with Chun-Nan's AppleSMBIOSEFI.kext?

Get it from here: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=108606

Also try (re)installing the Logitech Control Center software for OSX.

I reloaded:

Stock System.kext from 10.5.5

Stock AppleSMbios.kext (after installing Superhai's SMbiosresolver.kext)

ChunNan/Eureka’s SMBIOSEFI.kext -28 (most recent build found on the forum

 

I loaded:

The latest Chamelion EFI bootloader

dsmos.kext

 

Still, no dice, Systemprofiler still crashes...

 

From Voodoo's included system info tool, i got the following error listed:

 

line 12: 228 Floating point exceptionsystem_profiler -detailLevel full > ${TEMP}/system_profiler.txt

 

And when system profiler crashes, i can't get a report generated...

 

Thanks!

[entitas]

Notice the bold part. The kernel can automatically detect and correct for these problems so it's not a big issue, don't worry about it. The message was put as just a notification that auto-correction was performed.

I knew that fallback correction is automatically done here. Just wanted to know if Leopard will suffer some kind of performance or stability loss with this, now I think it will lose nothing.

[mercurysquad]

Thanks!

It's most probably because of your cache settings as reported by the CPU. Which processor do you have? Can you also post the output of systl -a | grep cache

[FavleX]

On my DS4 is working well even though it's reapperead the "screensaver,no asking password prob" as vanilla kernel.The boot time seems faster but benchmarking it's a bit worse.

On my Wind it's working but with system profiler crashs.

[Napster]

Has anyone tried Boot 132 with Voodoo to boot retail? I tried today but got kernel panic. Should I send you the panic screen? Mercurysquad!

Thanks for your help!

[supermx3]

finally got to run all the tests, everything works perfect, system has been up for 2 days non-stop, no panics or crashes, id say a winner for Atom powered boxes

[mercurysquad]

Has anyone tried Boot 132 with Voodoo to boot retail? I tried today but got kernel panic. Should I send you the panic screen? Mercurysquad!

Yeah that would be great.

[entitas]

Voodoo recommended using vanilla System.kext from 10.5.5 with Voodoo XNU RC. Now doing that breaks my machine and results a Kernel Panic. Check the picture below,

Using the System.kext from JaS Leo disk currently keeps Leopard running in my machine. But the question is can't I really use the vanilla one?

You need to delete /System/Library/Extensions.mkext, and type command sudo touch /System/Library/Extensions

Then reboot. You should get the Updating Boot Caches message before it reboots. If not, boot with -f bootflag.

Hi. I have been tried the new RC kernel and only works in 32bits with -legacy flag. Its faster than beta2.

I supose that doesn't work in 64bit mode due my AMD64 is SS2.

 

But all system works genial!!

Oh! This is something we overlooked as we didn't know of any CPU which could run in 64bit mode but didn't have SSE3.

 

The SSE3 emulator is 32bit only, and there is little chance that we'll be updating it to 64bit. What we'll do for final release is to automatically run SSE2 AMD64 in 32bit-only mode, so you don't have to specify the -legacy option. Thanks for the heads-up.

[ohoo]

Hi,

I can only boot with -legacy bootflag.My system is running 10.5.4.The KP at boot time is attached.I have system.kext from 10.5.5.Even when i updated to 10.5.5 i still cannot boot in leo.

 

Thx alot voodoo team

[sar4iva]

What the chances to "translation" issue solved in the final release??

 

Thanks for this... Working very well on my A64 3200+ Venice... =)

Hey Voodoo Team

 

I tried to retail install on my Athlon X2 4200+ rig using the slimbuild method.

 

But when I try to boot the install dvd I get something (right before it should say "Stating x86") about not being able to know multiplier...Then it reboots

 

I'll try to get a pic later but its only about a split second long so getting a pic will be hard..,

 

Thanks,

 

MGJulius
