Andras Kenez Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 Dear JAS I have Acer Aspire 3022 Notebook with mobility x600 and ATI ATA (x200) Works well with 10.4.3, and I could updated to 10.4.5 with MAXXUSS 2 partition method.... I try to use 10.4.6 and JaS.10.4.6.Install.Dvd.PPF1 I can boot, setup, but after boot I got blue screen, cursore movable, but OSX did not work... (safe mode also did not work) I could not find any description for JaS.10.4.6.Install.Dvd.PPF1. Must I make any permission repair after setup ? Please help Andras Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myzar Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 So...the problem is that the cpuid patch was written to only work with the sse emulator? And it adds something that makes the kernel work with a dual core cpu? Why can't that something be added to the non-emulating AMD kernel? no it's a side effect because it hides the sse3 cpu flag and there's a sse3 flag check left that it fails . It would be possible to fix it but maxxuss is mia and you'd need big kernel hacking skills to fix the problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spud Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 Hi, Just tried the install, which worked fine. Upon first boot, though, all I see is a black screen with the mouse cursor (no blinking prompt as some have been seeing). I can hear the intro music playing, but nothing but black is visible. I've tried almost every combination of AMD patches from the DVD. Does anyone have any ideas? AMD64 3200 (2.0GHz / 754-pin) Asus K8N-E mobo (nforce3-250Gb chipset) ATI Radeon 9800 Pro I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE BLACK SCREEN. MY SYSTEM IS A: AMD SEMPRON 3100+ ATi ALLINWONDER X800XT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheburashka Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 no it's a side effect because it hides the sse3 cpu flag and there's a sse3 flag check left that it fails . It would be possible to fix it but maxxuss is mia and you'd need big kernel hacking skills to fix the problem It seems as though all progress in getting hardware working with this thing has ceased. I have to wonder, what is the point to all of this? The back-in-college-with-my-Mac nostalgia was kind of cool, but at the end of the day, its a crippled, no-drivers version of a mediocre operating system with a small range of software.

munky Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 Cheburashka - no point, just geeks pursuing a technical challenge. I know people who have worked tirelessly to get osx working on their PCs, finally got it working and then promptly went back to windows. Sad but true. Anyway, I appear to have an issue testing this ISO. If I install with the 10.4.6 update, I boot to a black screen with mouse pointer. If I deselect the 10.4.6 update, I boot to a blue screen with mouse pointer. Either way I get no further. See my sig for specs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

comatron Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 Installed JaS 10.4.6 DVD Options: Intel Base System, SSE3 for Intel, GMA900 Support - No Printer Drivers etc. System: i915pl, gma900, celeron D 341 (sse3 4 sure), sata hd Problem: Clean Install - No errors during Install - had to set bootflag for the partition to prevent the b0 error - NOW: Kernel Panic at the Boot: Unresolved Kernel Trap (devide by zero) 10.4.5 worked for me nice but i had no chance to turn of the sse3 emulation - had no kernel for that ... please help guys ... that sucks - the hardware is prettely supported and listed compatible at its best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeroboards00 Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 Hey Peeps I had a quick question about the latest 10.4.6. Install DVD that’s out. When I am in the installer and get to the point that I choose Custom Installation. Do I only choose AMD base installer and AMD SSE3 patch? Or both SSE2 and SSE3. I have it up and running when I choose AMD Base and AMD SSE2 patches... but under the System Info it only shows my CPU is running SSE/SSE2... not SSE3. I’m confused at this part of the install and I have ran into a few failed attempts... Also… Is there any way to get Dual Monitors to span with Macvids new Beta 2 Build 1? I have two monitors hooked up and its running 1600x1200 on one fine but the other is all garble. Thanks peeps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know people who have worked tirelessly to get osx working on their PCs, finally got it working and then promptly went back to windows. Sad but true. Yep i did that too once i got a 100% working nforce3 system, the fun was just the technical stuff , the forbidden taste and not least to joy to damage and {censored} off apple . The lack of software, games , emus and the horrible gui is the main reason for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest goodtime Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 When I upgraded a working 10.4.5 installation, I noticed that I lost Windows File Sharing (SMB). Fix: Booted back to 10.4.6 Jas DVD. Erased the boot partition. Installed 10.4.6 from Scratch with 10.4.6 Patched Combo Update, HP Printer Drivers, X11, GMA900 support, SSE3 support. Everything works. Just had to fix my Ethernet Drivers for Yukon 1000 Base-T. Very pleased and glad a 10.4.6 install DVD is available. It's golden and is much easier than installing 10.4.3 and patching it to 10.4.4/.5 or .6 manually. GT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_dingman Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 Ok, so I have 10.4.4 installed and running on my machine, everything works as it should. I downloaded the "JaS_10.4.6_Install_dvd.3471683" torrent, got the ISO, burned it, and booted it. It boots into the installer, however my mouse cursor is sitting in the top left corner of the screen, and won't move. I get to the menu to select an install language, and neither my mouse or keyboard work. I scanned the whole thread, and saw no mention of this problem... any thoughts? If it matters: AMD Athlon 64 3200+ (socket 754, SSE2) VIA chipset SATA harddrive USB keyboard and mouse combo (worked fine in 10.4.4) I also tried a PS/2 Mouse with no luck. Thanks in advance. I will continue seeding the torrent as long as I can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

solaar Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 Hi there, I didn't see any 'introduce yourself' thread so I reckon this is a good one for a first post. I'm actually a 'Linux Bob' - just a stupid user not a developer Since I've got 10.4.3 running stable for a couple of months now and didn't want to run any risk, I installed the Jas 10.4.6 DVD on a third partition I always kept for test purposes. My specs are in the signature, here's the lowdown - internal keyboard and trackpad stopped working as soon as I booted from the install DVD. Went on with USB mouse and keyb - selected the required patches for my config and install finished ok. - boot ok but still no trackpad and internal keyb behaves erratically. - QE/ CI disabled now despite attempts with different patches. No more mouse artefacts like in 10.4.3 but no real improvement here. - firewire is gone Conclusion for me: I'll wipe the 10.4.6 partition and keep enjoying 10.4.3 while it lasts cheers sol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VN Man Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 Tried to install the DVD for two days now. Yesterday tried to fresh install with SSE2 support and 10.4.6 Update, install went fine. When reboot, however, got the "Ø" sign. The same with fresh install SSE3 support and 10.4.6 update.... This morning, rebooted the machine with kernel flags "-v -x", finally got into the GUI.... Found that my ATI X1600XT kext was not loaded, do the chmod...and kextcache things and reboot... WOW booted straight into the GUI login screen... Modified AppleAzaliaAudio kext to get my onboard RealTek audio to work...did the chmod...and kextcache things again... Rebooted, dissappointment, back to where I was yesterday, got the "Ø" sign... Rebooted again this time with kernel flags "-v -s", and got "Still waiting for root device". Turns out that, for some reason the AppleAHCIPort kext not loaded anymore... Have to change in the BIOS for emulated Standard IDE for the machine to boot .... My question, how to load back AHCI kext support??? My HW - Homebuild - ASUS P5LD2 Deluxe, 1GB RAM, 2 x 400GB SATA (not RAIDed), Celeron D 361 (SSE3 working), NEC DVD +-RW 3540A (Rip from the DELL Machine).

andyash Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 To the_dingman Thank you for responding. I've searched PB and can only see the JAS Install DVD. I have that but need the ppf patch that fixes it. I'll keep trying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
