boot with: -x -v -f npci=0x2000/ or 0x3000 usekernelcache=No GraphicsEnabler=NO nv_disable=1 / or nvda_drv=1

LOL! Icons problem continue but now I DONT have lag!!! *_*

 

Edit:No lag when I open folders or programs but it seems to have another graphics problems. Let me try it a little more.

 

Edit2: I wasn't having lag because of safe mode. Without -x is working very bad. Too lag and my OS got freezed. Now Im going to try the previous one and these two new a & b.

please, test the two new kernels by duran and report

 

EDIT Duran: Try boot with my previous one as well as the a & b version

Edit by spakk:

sorry, Yes of course ... plz test all three kernels ;-))

@AlexMnrs, Yeah there will be lag... Setting MTRR to uncached (well I hope we are)

 

It's basically to debug. Once we get somewhere with fixing the icons, then we will work backwards to fixing other problems. Baby steps.

Tested the A version and its booting faster than all the kernels I've tested but there is a problem. Only boots with nv_disable=1 and the icon problem isn't fixed. With the nvidia web driver does not works. Black screen with a white symbol...

 

Let's try the B version and the last one by spakk. I will edit this post.

Please also retest the first one I posted today...

I know. Does not matter the order. Its easy for me to try before these two because I have them downloaded in the os x. The first one I need to download again because I removed it.

 

Tested now the B version and the same result as the A. Icon problem not fixed and does not works with web driver.

 

Lets try the first one by you Duran ;P

Can someone test the latest 10.11.4 update on FX. Installed on my machine and no longer getting crashes with Safari and in general the whole OS is smoother. 

 

Update installed smoothly but the icon bug is still there :\

I could not upload the kernel here, no idea why not. Please test if this kernel works

Edit from Shaneee: Kernel uploaded to post.

There are 2 AMD made instructions in the Mac sysctl that show up on the AMD FX users outputs

FMA & PREFETCHW
Now FMA only recently started getting implemented in Intel chipsets in 2014 but besides the point I looked at Spakk's APU screenshot and it was missing.

On my Macbook I have FMA (Intel FMA is different to AMD's) but I don't have PREFETCHW.

 

I have been sitting for the past day emulating the AMD FX processor in QEMU as best as I could on my desktop.

 

Using a Phenom profile, yes I know that the Phenom's don't have the problem to start with with a few more instructions it would pretty much be a FX processor.

 

MISSING INSTRUCTIONS

I'm getting a kernel panic with both of them:

I am sorry for both kernel also kernels panic :(

 

Non kernel related. I see you both have Yosemite according to your signatures. Boot Yosemite and repair the disk with Disk Utility and repair permissions and build caches with KCPM Utility.
