I just finished installing 10.4.6 onto my notebook. Gateway 4024GZ. I had to attach a usb mouse and keyboard inorder to install the OS. It works great with the USB keyboard mouse combo, but defeats the purpose of having a laptop. Anyone know how to get it to see the touchpad and notebook keyboard???

This Universal Install DVD has screwed up permissions on specific kexts, namely:

 

ApplePS2Controller.kext

AppleAC97Audio

AppleAC97AudioIntelICH

ApplePS2Controller

 

and maybe:

 

AudioIPCDriver.kext

AppleMLANAudio.kext

AppleHDA.kext

 

The issue can be fixed by loading up terminal and typing:

 

cd /System/Library/Extensions

sudo find nameofkext.kext -type d -exec /bin/chmod 0755 {} \;

sudo find nameofkext.kext -type f -exec /bin/chmod 0644 {} \;

 

Disk Utility will not fix the problem automatically.
