JBraddock Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 100% working on hdx18. Even a performance gain (~150 pts on GeekBench64).App Store ok; sleep/wake ok... Same here. Working beautifully without any hassle. Geekbench score went back to what it was on 10.6.2. Purchased my third apps. (: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cparm Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Sorry to hear that cparm. It's not because of your E8500 CPU. I have the same CPU and 10.6.6 runs fine here, no performance drop. I'm still using Parallels 5, it's working fine just like it was, cinebench and geekbench scores are the same as before. App store seems to work fine, I don't have an Apple ID so I didn't try downloading anything but the update button just gives me a popup that says my apps are up to date - after installing 10.6.6 I ran Software Update before running App Store and got updates for some iLife apps. I used the full +1GB combo update to update. Maybe you should try that? I use MacPro3,1 smbios.plist and vanilla CPU power management via Chameleon 2.0 RC5. P45/ICH10R chipset. i just re-installed a 10.6.6 on a fresh install and everything work fine now (the app store crash gone), even performances (i'm currently re-installing all my apps one by one), and i use exactly the same configuration as before (drivers, bootloader + config files, sysctl.conf), but this time no problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ileikcaek Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Installed and working great here, Just a shame I can't actually use the App store. trying to download some free apps but Apple wants me to input payment information - no option to download FREE applications without entering details I cannot provide The downside to this is, it seems developers that are moving to the App store are making it the only way to download their app. I could enter bank card details, but that expired a few months ago and my bank hasn't issued a new one yet, even though I received a letter notifying me of a replacement on it's way!

Nghia Developer Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 It is normal when you cannot download from App Store, I tested with REAL MacBook Pro + Hackintosh Core 2 and i7 too Workarounds When you got hang-up, program not response, force quit - You need to log in first on menu bar, if you dont have acct please sign up and you need a credit card too - You need several tries AMD I am not sure because I don't have Problems come with Intel too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chief799 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Just installed the combo update from 10.6.4... I had removed sleepenabler and update went fine. tried putting the sleepenabler back in and rebootin, got a kernel panic. pmVersion=0 got me booted up and i removed it. i'm hoping someone will have an updated sleepenabler (or advice) within a week or so? otherwise everything appears to be working fine. I used a modified build of the recent LifeHacker Hackintosh tutorial, here are my specs: Intel Core i5 Quad 2.8 Asus P7P55 [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] Boot ROM NVideo GeForce 9500 GT Ev0reboot.kext FakeSMC.kext JMicron36xATA.kext JMicron36xSATA.kext LegacyAppleRTC.kext NullCPUPowerManagement.kext UpstreamDisabler.kext not working: SleepEnabler.kext Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jedric Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Does anybody know if this fixed the wireless issue with 10.6.5? I have WPC54G PCI card BCM4306 chipset. Works OOB from 10.6.0 -10.6.4, broke on 10.6.5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TH3L4UGH1NGM4N Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 @ Jedric Just reinstall the kext that you previously used in the older versions and repair permissions afterwards before rebooting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starobrno1 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 I did the update on my backup drive had to manually edit two kexts for my videocard but that´s all. Totally useless update though can´t see what the big deal is whit it, no performance gain at all. All is the same as before so my main install will stay 10.6.5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gringo Vermelho Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 can´t see what the big deal is whit it There's a bunch of security patches, though I guess you'd have most of them already if you run Software Update regularly: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1222 Besides the App store there's a postscript and an ATI video card bugfix: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4459 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedric Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 @ Jedric Just reinstall the kext that you previously used in the older versions and repair permissions afterwards before rebooting Thanks forgot to mention using chameleon RC5.

Syed Khalil Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Hello Guys, I have Dell Optiplex GX620 and I have successfully upgraded to 10.6.6 by reinstalling the 10.6.5 legacy kernel. No USB issues this time. Have been using 10.6.2 usb kexts and they seem to be intact as I read in a post here. Mac App Store is working flawlessly on my system and all my iLife 11 apps are recognized as installed. Hi. I've been thinking in updating my hack but have some questions: Any of you have SL installed with a software RAID 0 config, updated and worked? If I loose my USB, my keyboard will not work (my USB only works on UHCI mode,don't know why), so how could I recover it? My graphic card is a NVIDIA 8400GS 512MB. Anyone knows if it's supported on 10.6.6? Sorry for my english!! Hello Buddy, I have the same card on my optiplex gx620 and have successfully upgraded to 10.6.6. The card works like a charm with complete hardware acceleration enabled. Since there is no new upgrade for nvidia chips in 10.6.6 there is not going to be any issue at all.

^GoJo^ Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Hello, I own a Wind U100 clone and downloaded the last combo update. When i run it, just after entering password to install and as it says "preparing installation.." it will stop cause of unknown error... This is the message shown in the console : "06/01/11 22:27:09 Installer[594] PackageKit: Missing bundle path, skipping: <bundle id="com.apple.NetworkUtility"></bundle>" I turned off wifi but no change... Any ideas? Hope to find solution quickly! Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cparm Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 10.6.6 work really well, and now i'm surprised by how fast osx can boot with my bootloader (~ 10 spinning now, ~ 20 spinning before, and no more "waiting for dsmos ..."), I'm anxious to see the sources edit: my bench scores are even better than before, i still don't know what happened with my previous install Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bagga123 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Update worked perfectly through software update. GA-X58A-UD3R rev. 2.0. EVGA Geforce Gtx 260. App Store works fine, qe/ci work fine, audio, wireless, and lan work fine. Had to disable SleepEnabler to avoid kernel panic. System ID MacPro 4,1. I have Logic 9.1.3 and it seems to be working just fine for me. hi matthew i like your screen grab. and i am curious to find out what applications you are using to monitor your hardware utilization aswell as CPU temprature as display in the top right hand side of your screen grab. what are these apps called and are they free. Please do get back to me. i am also on twitter if its quicker for you to reply there!!! Twitter id N44GGA thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larx Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Logic 9.1.3 works fine for me at 10.6.6 no Problems!! Yea? Run logic, immediately after the ignition computer. After a while I get a message"Application Failed to start". I must "Force Quit App" . Try it after 2-3 minutes ... Everything works normally. This also happens with iPhoto and other programs. Probably at the start, OSX loads the some processes, but this did not happen before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k2cr2o7 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Hi! I have 10.6.4 with legacy kernel 10.4.0 . I have a notebook core2duo 2.6ghz, nvidia 8600m gt, original airport wireless, etc. When i installed the 10.6.5 with the legacy kernel 10.5.0, my usb ports didn't work and I wasn't able to did they work, so I went back to the 10.6.4 with the 10.4.0 legacy kernel. Now, I want to install the new update 10.6.6 and i have a question..., can i install the new update (combo update) and after install it, install the 10.4.0 legacy kernel? Is there any better way to do it? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems that 10.6.5/10.6.6 can cause USB 1 devices to fail but USB 2 devices are largely unaffected (USB 1 devices plugged into USB 2 hubs should also be unaffected). More details can be found here: http://tonymacx86.blogspot.com/2011/01/mac...066-update.html You can use [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] to install ONLY the USB Rollback option and it should fix the USB problem.
