stevns Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 Feature request: File attachment for KEXT files Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/151545-the-official-insanelymac-osx86-database-now-accepting-your-submissions/page/2/#findComment-1077650 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Smart Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 You know, I'm on way to make a hackintosh. And I was wondering if there could be an interface to this database. Let me explain: Users can freely add their hadware, make note about, indicate what kext to use... Maybe could it be the other way? Such as: - First step: What processor have I. - Second: What motherboard have I. - Third: What graphical card have I. - Fourth: What soundcard have I. - Fifth: What exotic hardware have I. And so on... At the end, the user have a result of what kext are indicated in the database and the user sould get to have an operational sytem. I believe it wouldn't be 100 percent operational, but it might help a lot. Or not, it's maybe better if users keeps use the good old way of searching by themself . I believe this is what you are kind of looking for: http://www.osx86library.com/hardware/build.php We are going to add Download / kext attachment soon. We are currently in the concept / design stage for that.

Dr. Hurt Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 Submitted my hardware the day it opened for submission and nothing yet. Thanks mods - I guess I'll contribute to OSx86 library instead, at least they care more.

strangedaze Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 I submitted a handful of things, but haven't seen the list updated since it's been posted. Wiki was instant, but I guess thats not the biggest issue. Looks good all in all, really like the new look. *except for those ugly google ads for pystar in the top banner, they need to be framed or relocated IMO. But I understand someone gotta pay the bills Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/151545-the-official-insanelymac-osx86-database-now-accepting-your-submissions/page/2/#findComment-1079845 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rpssilva Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 Great idea. A big help for the note users (for having the closed architecture) would be the drivers development or paths for the various lines DV (as my notebook dv6110br, because I don't have discovery compatible distros for him).

sellwowgoldtous Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 Great resource, thanks for the hard work! I submitted a couple of entries on items I've worked with. Any chance of integrating this with the data that PC Wiz has collected in his hardware compatibility database? Not trying to step on any toes here, but it just seems like consolidating all this compatibility information in one place would be a big win for the community. Just throwing it out there.

mrmoebius Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 It looks like a nice interface for adding entries, but what about doing queries? For example I followed the tree down to my motherboard, the ASUS P5GC-MX/1333 and there was nothing there. Is that to say that there is nothing populated in that data node? How can someone see which items actually have data in them instead of just empty nodes? I don't mind putting in my info from what I've had working but it's nice to know there is some way to tell if someone else had any success, even if it's someone looking for my results...

cozza99 Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 This might not be the place to ask but can anyone write a guide for a Sony Vaio SR Series laptop? I'm trying with iatkos 5i and keep getting stuck near the very end. I think it's the customize option that I'm having trouble with. If anyone has written a guide for it already or something similar, could you please help me as I haven't seen any guides yet.

Ed Posted February 23, 2009 Author Share Posted February 23, 2009 @rschultz101 - thanks for your feedback, lots of good points raised in there, most of which we're already aware of and/or are working on - we're still working hard on the database so that we can display results, but we're taking our time to get this right, so we may have a few more weeks yet until we're able to deliver it - we're keen to test it thoroughly before releasing it in the wild! It will be worth the wait though! =) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/151545-the-official-insanelymac-osx86-database-now-accepting-your-submissions/page/2/#findComment-1089367 Share on other sites More sharing options...
