Background Info/Specs:

Dell Inspiron 8500 Notebook, Latest BIOS

Pentium4-M (not Pentium M) 2.2 GHz (SSE2, NO HTT)

1.25G RAM

 

8.4.1 kernel works fine.

 

Installed JaS 10.4.7 Internal Intel/AMD DVD (10.4.4, patches to 10.4.7 at install)

Installed JaS 10.4.8 Intel SSE2 SemtheX Beta 9 package

 

Booting with -f -v:

 

kexts fly by, video mode switches then this text:

And thats it. It'll just sit there. No panic or anything. Normally, after that last line, I would expect to see

 

ACPI: System State [S0 S3 S4 S5] S3
Security auditing service present
Blah blah blah blah...

 

So I'm guessing it's an ACPI issue. Unfortunately, I have very little control over power management in the bios since it's a laptop. I also notice that it doesn't list off the cpu features anymore, nothing about the RTC, etc. Anyone have any ideas on how to move forward?

Where is it? Does it even exist?

So there's not a package from JaS.

I'm sure when the bugs are ironed out of the SSE2 capable kernel, then JaS will create a new DVD. But the kernel is not working with enough people yet as far as I can see. Need more people to test, experiment and report.

Yes, yes. I'm just trying to make it clear enough for everyone. It could cause confusion. Thanks for the reply. :D

 

Edit: I already downloaded the kernel yesterday.

Posting here to keep all questions about JaS's beta package for SSE2 beta 9 in one place.

 

Finally got to GUI with JaS's new package but my About This Mac is restarting Finder. Can someone suggest a fix? I imagine i need to replace loginwindow.app with a different version... but which one?

Hi, I have the same error, I try to replace AppleACPIPlatform and AppleAPIC and now it boot in single user mode, Now I have problems with diskarb.......

Sorry for my english.

 

My specs:

Compaq Evo N800v P4 1600 mobile SEE2

i would love to try to get my 6600gt working, but like i said earlier. I have the Mac-OS-X-10.4.7-AMD.Intel-(JaS)-ISO-Repack (that works) but after the JaS.10.4.8.SSE2.Intel.Only.Combo.Update it hangs each time (grey apple screen. So if this parts doenst even work i can forget to get to to kernal upgrade path. I will have to wait for a working package.

the more testers we have, less bugs it will have in the end. Just don't bother JaS if it doesn't work at first time, as semthex said, help each other and try to see wats wrong by yourself, this way you will be helping and not slowering the process.

BTW: merry xmas ;D

P.S: I'm on the IRC, i'll delete this post if asked to.

 

yes please remove the link , its only beta and for testing in the kernel channel

use the one from 10.4.4

I boot the gui replacing AppleACPI and AppleAPIC from extensions 10.4.6, but don't have PS2 mouse and sound, and PCcard services for pcmcia wireless. I've the same problem with the new extensions and beta9 kernel.

They are a lot of problems of despendecies.. .Sorry for my english.

 

Nice work semthex!

i ran the JaS installer.pkg on a clean 10.4.6 install and after restart baaam! 8.8.1 with gui, natit isnt working though but i'll try to get that working

thx JaS and semthex

 

PS: my ps2 mouse isnt working

Need OpenGL.framework from Apple Intel 10.4.8 Combo Update. Open the update .dmg and find installer .pkg inside. Use Pacifist to open .pkg. Click little arrows beside System -> Library -> Frameworks and find OpenGL. Click it and then click the Install button in toolbar of Pacifist. Should then repair permissions and update_prebinding.
