danerd100 Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 Hi everyone, I managed to get SL running on my pc using a distro. I have an AMD processor, my chipset is nVidia GeForce 6150, and my graphics card is GeForce 8400 GS. When I installed it i used the 10.6.2 combo update (built into the distro), the Legacy 10.2.0 kernel, the AMD patch, and some system support patches (I do not remember which ones). I then installed my wireless driver, and used osx86 tools to get my video driver to work using efi. I correctly installed all of this, and it worked. Sleep worked correctly earlier, then when I went to bed, the computer obviously also took its nap, and I came back and it did not respond to my mouse movement or keyboard, or power button. So I reset it. When it came back on, The computer ran VERY slowly, and after a while, was completely unresponsive. Every time I reboot now this happens. This was my second attempt both times I used different configurations, both times, i got the error. What is described above is my most recent attempt. Any help is much appreciated Sorry for the double post, if a mod could delete one of these that would be great Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/202873-runs-very-slowly-after-boot/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
danerd100 Posted December 21, 2009 Author Share Posted December 21, 2009 Does anyone have any ideas on this? It happened a third time. This time, I got everything working, rebooted, used it, let it sleep, then as I was using it the next time, it froze up, and I had to restart it using the power button, and it didn't end up working again. Could it be the wifi driver that I installed? I used in this post http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php...t&p=1121602 (It is the only one I have ever gotten to work for me). Could this be causing problems? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/202873-runs-very-slowly-after-boot/#findComment-1365860 Share on other sites More sharing options...
danerd100 Posted December 21, 2009 Author Share Posted December 21, 2009 UPDATE: Computer boots in safe mode. Which means it is a problem with a kext (correct?) how can I figure out which kext is causing the problem?

kalel83 Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 did you repair permissions and rebuild both .mkext ? I bet no one has responded because your story is a little vague. There isn't much to say besides guess. You should first post a -v report of excactly what happens at boot (boot with -v in chameleon rc4, when it crashes copy what is on the screen to here) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/202873-runs-very-slowly-after-boot/#findComment-1365922 Share on other sites More sharing options...
danerd100 Posted December 22, 2009 Author Share Posted December 22, 2009 It boots up fully, but crashes while I'm using it, or while it's asleep.
