Soprano Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 I've installed and finally have it running, but I noticed most of the kernel extensions in System/Library/Extensions are now folders instead of the plug-in icon (packages) and some are the blank white icon. All of the permissions are fine. Does anyone else have this problem? Could this cause me problems? Screenshot is attached.

Prawker Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 kext files are really just folders, they will still function with a diffrent icon, OS X does this to me from time to time, it usually just goes away on its own.

Soprano Posted February 21, 2007 Author Share Posted February 21, 2007 Yeah, I knew they were folders (package/bundle), but was wondering if it would cause any issues. Thanks.

mifki Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 It happened to me, never caused issues, it just went away like procker said Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/43061-kext-files-are-now-folders/#findComment-307889 Share on other sites More sharing options...
zackint0sh Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 you try using Disk Utility and repairing permissions? That fixed a few that went funky on me from manual manipulation in terminal.

Soprano Posted February 22, 2007 Author Share Posted February 22, 2007 Thanks. I've repaired the permissions several times, even used Disk Utility, and they still are the same. Oh well...

asap18 Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 it doesnt really matter since it only loads whats inside the folder, and they're even seen as folders on linux.
