Cvrcmember Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 Hi, I'm new to this forum, but not new to computers . I just have a few quick questions.... I have a Dell Inspiron E1505, --------------------------------------------------------------------------- CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo 1.67 GHz RAM: 2 GB DDR2 SDRAM Intel GMA 950 Integrated Graphics Chipset (it sucks, I know) Network: Broadcom 440x 10/100 Integrated Controller Sound: Sigmatel Audio 9200 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- *---------------------------------------------- Kernel: 9.3 Vanilla Bootloader: Chameleon 2.0 RC *---------------------------------------------- I installed the Kalyway 10.5.2 install DVD, and then upgraded to 10.5.3 using the Kalyway Combo Update Package. In order to get my graphics to work, I had to do the whole "movevideodrivers /" thing. I don't remember what the command was. Ok, so there is my system info and history, I'm currently at Kalyway 10.5.3. I've heard, by using the official Vanilla Kernel, that you can update to 10.5.7 using the "Software Update" Is this true? I know that you must have the "Disabler.kext" and "AppleDecrypt.kext" in order to do this. I need to know if I can update without doing ANYTHING and just use the Software Update, or if I need to do a few things like DSDT patching or using different kernels and what not. Also... do I need to patch my DSDT if I am running the Vanilla Kernel? Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks for helping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poco Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 OK back to your first post if you system has a vanilla install, disabler.kext (something for the AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext), and a decryptor (such as dsmos.kext or AppleDecrypt.kext) you CAN update from the Software Update. Been doing that myself. iPoco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
