~pcwiz Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 From Voodoo Team Site: 21 Dec 2008 Yes, we know the 9.6 kernel sources are up - we started working on it a few minutes after it was made available :-) The bad news is that Apple made a lot of changes in the kernel, most of them directly modifying the same parts that Voodoo does. So the port is almost going to be a rewrite. Expect it to take a few weeks. Early January is a good ETA for a beta of Voodoo 2.0. 16 Dec 2008 bumby has confirmed that the new Nehalem-core based Intel Core i7 processors work with Voodoo kernel (Apple stock kernel doesn't work yet). It requires using the busratio= boot flag. The next update should include native support for Core i7. 15 Dec 2008 Apple has released Leopard 10.5.6 - which means new kernel! The 9.6.0 xnu kernel source code is not up yet, but we'll be working to bring you Voodoo 9.6.0 as soon as we get our hands on the source archive. Things are looking good. Core i7 support is coming the the team's latest kernel for Mac OS X 10.5.6 which should be here in early January But just a tip while we wait for another great kernel, the 9.5.0 Voodoo kernel works fine in 10.5.6 as long as you have the 10.5.5 System.kext installed. EDIT: Comment from Dense: You need the 10.5.5 seatbelt.kext as well to install Voodoo on 10.5.6 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/142432-voodoo-kernel-20-announced/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

justvisiting Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 a suggestion: can voodoo kernel have same "release number" as apple kernel as a naming convention?

Dense Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 When using Voodoo under 10.5.6 you also need to use the 10.5.5 seatbelt.kext otherwise there will be a system panic opening disk images. It seems seatbelt.kext needs to match the same version of System.kext.

kytzu Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 Can anyone pls explain what's the difference between Voodoo and Vanilla kernel? vanilla kernel is the original apple kernel and it's not 100% compatible with x86 architecture (ex sleep, speedstep, sse2) voodoo kernel is modified to make pc as much as possible compatible with osx os, download the pdf doc from link below and see the details http://code.google.com/p/xnu-dev/downloads/list Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/142432-voodoo-kernel-20-announced/#findComment-1015701 Share on other sites More sharing options...

cybercow Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 If you look at their dev group on google the news about it is not so bright. They announced it, but seems the developers worked on this project are gone to other projects and things, and the final release date is not so close ... http://code.google.com/p/xnu-dev/wiki/NewsArchive Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/142432-voodoo-kernel-20-announced/#findComment-1102386 Share on other sites More sharing options...
