The new kernel (included in 10.4.8) work with SSE2?

 

Any idea? Thanks !

 

Well, i don´t know if this works for you, but it worked for me!!!... Did an blank instalation of JaS 10.4.7 on my P4 3.06 HT SS2, mobo intel 865 Platinium Edition, then installed the JaS 10.4.8 DVD as an upgrade (but i did it booting), installed the semthex kernel BUT I DID NOT USED ANY SS3 Patch!!!!!, IT WORKED LIKE A CHARM!!!!!, i have a Nvidia 6200 AGP, used the titan and i have QE/CI working!!!

Everything works OK!!!, sound (native, stereo), lan (using the realtek patch installer), and the titan!!!, and the system profiler said that im runing the 8.8.1 Kernel!!!....

 

Sorry about my english!!!.....

Are you sure your processor isn't capable of SSE3?

 

The only SSE3 patch on the 10.4.8 DVD IS the Semthex kernel. And the only thing the patch installs is the kernel itself.

No one anywhere else has gotten the new kernel to run on an SSE2 processor. It just doesn't have the required instructions built into it yet.

Can one use the newest JAS 10.4.8 install (NOT update, but rather full install) to udate from 10.4.6 or 10.4.7 to 10.4.8 WITH the new Kernel (8.8.1). I had read in other threads that the 10.4.8 updates out there (?Kiko, JAS) do NOT actuall y update the Kernel. I am looking to update my Kernel from 8.4.1 so I can use the AppleHDA.kext for ACL882. Thanks.

udate from 10.4.6 or 10.4.7...I am looking to update my Kernel from 8.4.1 so I can use the AppleHDA.kext for ACL882. Thanks.

The Paulicat method starts with a working 10.4.6 or 10.4.7 installation and gets you a full 10.4.8 with new kernel: http://paulicat.freeflux.net/blog/archive/...rade-guide.html

Actually, may be im pretty smart or a dumb luck........ BUT IM RUNNING 8.8.1 KERNEL WITH SS2!!!.... i have a old P4 socket 478 3,06 SSE/SS2/HT on a mobo MSI INTEL 865 Platinium Edition 1GB RAM DDR 400.... Just did a blank instalation of JaS 10.4.7 DVD with the JaS 10.4.7 combo patch and the SS2 Patch.... Then i did an Upgrade of the DVD JaS 10.4.8 INTEL ONLY SS3(booting) using the combo 10.4.8 update Patch, winloggin 10,4,4 patch and the USB patch (it doest work!!!! have to install the USB DEV KIT to work....) BUT I DID NOT INSTALLED ANY SS3 PATCH........

 

I`ll create a new post in the forum with some pictures to prove that!!!

 

Sorry for my spanish - english translation....!!! :turbin:

and the USB patch (it doest work!!!! have to install the USB DEV KIT to work....)

Strange thing is that several people have had problems with the USB patch, but it actually came from the Apple USB kit.

Go to Terminal and type: uname -a

 

This will give the kernel version and compile date.

It's technial impossible to run the current kernel with a sse2 machine. I am currently developing SSE2 support and it is very close to finish, but will need a day or two. Hang on for it, won't take long anymore I think.

:thumbsdown_anim:

 

Great , once it's done we can sit back and think .. what a long strange trip it's been :)

I'm pretty sure that some older P4s had HTT and not SSE3..

 

From Wikipedia:

 

"In April 2003, Intel launched new 800 MT/s FSB variants, ranging from 2.4 to 3.0 GHz. The key difference on these new versions was that they all supported Hyper-Threading, and ran their system buses at 800 MT/s."

 

Back in 2003, SSE3 wasn't out, so there you go.
