JosePeich Posted October 18, 2007 Share Posted October 18, 2007 Hi everyone!!! I have a problem with my new Apple Keyboard! I've installed a clean Tubgirl's 10.4.10 for AMD system. Well, the keyboard works, but no the special keys. So the system tells me that there is an Apple Keyboard Update 1.2. I install it, but... when I reboot the system, the system stops before the loginscreen appears. The mouse works, even the light on caps lock works. But the loginscreen no come up. Please, I hope you can help me. P.S: I'm spanish, so sorry for my english My System: AMD 64 3000+ Asus A8N-E NVIDIA 7300LE Everything works out of the box with Tubgirl's 10.4.10 except for this Apple keyboard strange behavior Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/66869-apple-aluminium-wired-keyboard-12/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
netfox Posted October 18, 2007 Share Posted October 18, 2007 The update worked for me. You 'r sure it was the only selected item in the update screen before downloading/installing the update?

JosePeich Posted October 19, 2007 Author Share Posted October 19, 2007 I talk with another user with the same problem. It seems that is related with Tubgirl's 10.4.10. He has Tubgirl's too, and the system stops at the same point. I'll do a clean installation, and only update the keyboard. If works, I'll post here the good news. If don't... I'll post a screenshot with the results of boot in verbosely mode. By the way, if anyone with AMD and Tubgirl 10.4.10 have some info, please, post it. On Intel hackintoshes the keyboard update seems to work just fine. Thanks!

Tienneke Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 For those who still don't have the keyboards keys working, you just need to install the AppleHIDKeyboard.kext file from the keyboard software update. Extract it using Pacifist, and install it in the folder /System/Library/Extensions, correct permissions (seems like you have to do that manually, autofix from disk utility does not seem to work. (using sudo chmod -R 755 /System/Library/Extensions/AppleHIDKeyboard.kext and sudo chown -R root.wheel /System/Library/Extensions/AppleHIDKeyboard.kext.)This should give you a working alu keyboard Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/66869-apple-aluminium-wired-keyboard-12/#findComment-496969 Share on other sites More sharing options...

XQYZ Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 Do it the way I described the installation of OSX 10.4.11 on AMD. Download it. Extract it with Pacifist. Patch everything with Marvin's AMD Patch and then install it manually (and double check the file's needed and that your backups are ok). I'll get myself one of these keyboards too, then I can tell you more how to work around it.
