PascalW Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 Hm it seems there are a lot of troubles with loginwindow and graphic kexts. For some it works, for some it doesnt. Very weird. For now it seems, that people with agp graphics card have troubles with new ati/nvidia kexts, so I suggest those people backup and replace those kexts before reboot. Aside to that I'll wait for new kernel to come, maybe it will fix some of the troubles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Headrush69 Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 I also restored the 10.4.9 loginwindow. What about the new Kernel? And is there any way to use the new 10.4.10 working ATI kext files with working QE/CI? There is no new kernel yet with the AMD package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fxwizrd Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 PascalW's installation didn't work here either. System hangs with kernel panic. I suspect new Geforce drivers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stony Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 Just replace your ATI oder nVidia kext files with one of the 10.4.9 package. Do the same with the loginwindow (if there are any problems). If your system hangs or you get kernel panics, just reboot until your systems boots fine into your desktop. This worked for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morgansson Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 Lemme ask a stupid question. What's the point of installing the update if you are then overlaying with and older kernel? Lol i assume it makes you feel upgraded LOL anyway, this information its important, cuz when the new kernel went out we just need to replace it and its all. regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your system hangs or you get kernel panics, just reboot until your systems boots fine into your desktop. This worked for me. Can you explain how to do that... So use the terminal to store the kexts elsewhere, then replace after running the update right? And is it all the ones that have nVidia in the name?

aqua-mac Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 This went without a hitch, but I edited the 10.4.9 kernel to 10.4.10 (8.10.1) to keep my bluetooth keyboard working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mac.nub Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 On Dell Inspiron 6400: Used PascalW's Intel Updater... worked fine, but I had to use 10.4.4 login window to fix about this Mac - interestingly i'd never had to to this before (on 10.4.7, 8 or 9), it had always worked fine. Needed to re-install Graphics (GMA950) before reboot, and also need to re-do the HDA patch for audio. I'm tempted to do a fresh re-install and upgrade manually to see if I can use the new login window... ~mac.nub Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B612 Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 I have the same problem of StevenZ: I get a Panic, for an ACPI driver missing. SO my problem shouldn't be related to NVidia drivers. Does anybody have a solution? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PsyCHotIc phREak Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 I have successfully updated to 10.4.10 but now i can't open ISO files anymore. It shows an error which says: "Device not configured" Can somebody please help me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fxwizrd Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 I finally managed to get 10.4.10 to work. I only replaced GeForce.kext with the old one from 10.4.9. I didn't even need to replace loginwindow (`About This Mac` shows correct CPU information). Only problem I noticed was that Xbench and Geekbench scores were much lower than with 10.4.9. Xbench was 85, now - 76. Geekbench results dropped from 3455 to 2095, most significant drop is in floating point section - score was 6559, now it's 2672.
