mac.nub Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 Hey All, I was just wondering if it was normal for CPU features not to be displayed after using the 8.8.1 Mifki (Vitaliy) kernel? Mine just says: Hardware Overview: Machine Name: Mac Machine Model: ACPI Processor Name: Intel Core Duo Processor Speed: 1.6 GHz Number Of Processors: 0 Total Number Of Cores: 1 Memory: 1 GB Bus Speed: 533 MHz Sales Order Number: L2 Cache: 2 MB Many Thanks.

TopazBar Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 Apple decided not to call cpuid and its info at startup. We can put them back in. In hardware review, it is up to the SPPlatform reporter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edmoncu Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 just to bump this thread... using the latest 10.4.8 Jas and CPU features doesn't appear on my rig, but using the same installer disc on a different PC (IBM Thinkcentre), the CPU features appear on on System profiler.

The Shaun Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 Bumping this thread because it covers my exact problem: I see other people running my kernel (Semthex 8.8.1. Beta 9, IIRC. Whatever's on the JaS 10.4.8 disc), and their System Profiler shows all the CPU features. I copied the SPPlatform.reporter file from my old 10.4.6 disc, which did nothing. I remember 10.4.6 used to show this. So, is CPUID turned off in the kernel itself? And if it is, does this mean NOTHING on the system can pull up these features?

The Shaun Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 It's minor but it bugs me. That's why I'm worrying about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
