Check my sig below for hardware specs.

 

I just installed 10.4.8 and when i click on the about mac. It shows that my CPU is unknown and running at 3.7 Ghz but its an AMD Athlon 64 +3400. I've seen other users screen shots with this CPU and it works fine on this systems. I was told to download palicat's AppleSMBIOS.kext but his link on his blog is down. Can someone post the link? Thanks in advance.

this is kernel related. I asked semthex about it and he said we have two options.

 

1, unknown kernel

2, kernel panic

 

sure it's a VERY minor cosmetic issue, and I would like to see my processor properly reported, but I'd certainly rather have an "unknown" than no working kernel at all.

 

ps. if it's possible to get this working, than perhaps semthex (or someone) will fix it up for us, but I'm sure it's way down the priority list, ass sse2 seems to be the most sought after advance at the moment.
