tscorpion Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 iAtkos S3 version 2 seems to be perfect! Works very nice on my PC (updated to 10.6.4): Mainboard GA-EP45T-UD3P Intel Core 2 Duo E7400 2x 2.80GHz Realtek 8111C/8168 Audio: Realtek ALC889a ASUS EN9400GT SILENT/DI/512MD2 (NVIDIA GeForce 9400 GT) (Setting: Nvidia EfiString (DVI/VGA) & Enabler (NVenabler)) BenQ Monitor 1920x1080 incl. webcam 3x WD HDD 4x2 GB OCZ DDR3 only one thing is missing: my DVD-RW Plextor 716A is not installed. During the installation process I opened the disc utility and there it was listed as optical drive! After the installation the Plextor is not visible in MacOS and no DVD/CD is readable... What can I do? @Peter_sm: seems to be a similar problem... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nameci Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 Already did see my sig, and it works very well and snappier. Just reinstalled the hacked AppleHDA kext. Software update to 10.6.5 overwrites AppleHDA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Software update to 10.6.5 overwrites AppleHDA. Every update? Cause I installed iAtkos S3 U2 10.6.3 and I've already updated to 10.6.4 without reinstalling anything Oo Where do I get a hacked AppleHDA? Directly form the iAtkos disk?

Tranzy Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 I'm dloading it also. giving it another try on my XPS M1530 T9300. I see a lot of other M1530 users here .. why not bundle forces and make it work for everyone. Share some resources etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bakwaas Posted November 30, 2010 Share Posted November 30, 2010 For those who installed the iatkos s3 v2 on XPS M1530..how did you get wireless to work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Directly form the iAtkos disk? No, I did not get it from iAtkos disk. I got my hacked AppleHDA from somewhere I cannot remember now. I use the hacked version because I do not want to use voodooHDA for my sound, my audio device is an ALC883, most of the updates are compatible with ALC889A. If you have that audio device then you are lucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Electromaniac Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 I just want to confirm that iATKOS S3v2 works on following configuration: AMD Athlon X2 240 BIOSTAR MBO A760G M2+ ATI HD3000 int. DDR II 800 2x1GB OPTIARC 7240S DVD RW SATA WD1200JD SATA HDD Logitech Internet 350 USB Keyboard and RX250 Mouse connected to PS2 via converter instead using USB. Monitor Samsung SM710V 17" So the word is that I successfully installed this distro (32-bit version) and it's working almost completely. Network is ok, sound is nearly ok (I can't increase or decrease sound via desktop, and have to go to settings>Sound or Voodoo HDA, Apple HDA seems not to work). I had previousle iATKOS v7 updated to 10.5.8. and sound was ok. But in both s3 and v7 IDE HDDs weren't recognized. In S3 I have strange mouse problem. Clicks aren't functional if mouse's in USB, but when I connect to PS/2 via USB to PS/2 converter it works ok. But only problem that's really anoying is that shift+command+3 (screenshot) isn't working, but I solved it with Copernicus, and unsolved yet problem is that when I open pictures they aren't showing in preview. It's just gray like there's picture error. In thumbnails they're shown. If there's someone that knows how to solve picture preview problem please let me know. And because this is my first post on this forum, I forgot to say Hi everyone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S.SubZero Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 This runs great on my Sager 5793. I had a lot of problems with the earlier SL releases, to the point that I gave up on OSX86 for a while. iATKOS S3 V2 definitely resolved all of my issues. It's also the first time I was able to boot in 1920x1200 with full QE/CI and get the opening movie perfectly. I'm amazed I don't need any special enabler kext to get the 8800M GTX going. It just "worked" with the Graphics Enable boot option. Wireless (Intel) and Camera (Syntek) don't work but this was expected. I don't use them anyway.

ipadlover Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 I like "distos" as everything is nicely collected. Are there any plans for AMD in the future? You could install iDeneb that, if I'm not mistaken supports AMD CPU also the 64bit. I installed iDeneb on my Dell Inspiron 1501 simply Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexGen Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 I just installed this distro on my Shuttle SP35P2, worked flawless, inlcuding ethernet and audio. Am using nVidia 7300.

themofsh Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 Hello everybody! I installed the iAtksosS3 v2 on my system and i just wanna say that It works on AMD systems just as fine. I can say that i was a little surprised, but very happy So if you have doubts about installing this on AMD, try! I previously had the V7.. Asrock 785G chipset..sk 939 (search on ASrock site 4 details..) AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800+ DDR1 2gb sound M-Audio... video ASUS 85000gt (works amazing with EFI strings, dosen't seem to work with anything else). i selected qoopz 3 kernel.. also you may need Jmicron injector. I let the first bootloader in the list whatever the name is.. I don't remember all my selections..i gotta see the list.. but worked for me. Even better, boots faster and I don't have problems with the restart any+. USBs work well.. updates.. I don't know about 10.6.5 update, and i'll never try . Thanks to all the people who worked on this.. Great job! and iAtkos RULLEZ! And thanx to all forums and osxprojects... i learned so much from you.

deadreaper Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 Just a heads-up for everyone: According to Pere, iATKOS S3 does not support AMD CPUs. You have been warned. But I installed iATKOS on my AMD pc ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
