=-Devin-= Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 Which is which? Is the active window 10.5.2? NVM, didn't see the Mac OS version in it. Sorry! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hamb0ne Posted February 13, 2008 Author Share Posted February 13, 2008 system feels much smoother and i think my ethernet connect drop issue is fixed too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sujaan Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 Notice where it says Mac Pro in the 10.5.1 window. Why does it say (what I'm assuming is) the actual model number in the 10.5.2 window? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hamb0ne Posted February 13, 2008 Author Share Posted February 13, 2008 did you use the kalyway hacked one? you have to use the kalyway hacked version of the update. you can use the regular one too if you know how to do it with netkas guide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aibonlengket Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 i can confirm that the update combo from kalyway does make it faster. the cpu and graphic went up about 10-20 in xbench and this is before graphic update. after graphic update, the gpu was lower but very little, 1-2. note: haven't update the kernel.

Adhemar Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 because i updated my appleSMBIOs with the one that was posted on this forum Do you have a link? Is it a modified version of the 10.5.2 kext, or is the vanilla 10.5.2 kext? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
=-Devin-= Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 I don't understand. Mine went for being up to par with the latest MacBook score down all the way to near the 50's. Whats wrong? LOL My system is really fast too! But a new Graphics card will be ordered soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dizeeosx86 Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 HAMBONE, took your advice on update, kaly style, I installed it with no problem, but I did have a small issue. When I reboot or just start my laptop, it takes me from the gray screen with wheel, to a black screen for like 4 mins than finally I am in the OS, is there something I should do or what? Mind you I have an Dell E1705 2 Gigs mem, 1.67 Ghz Core 2 Duo and my bench is rated at 98.90 with Kaly 10.5.1. Please help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coolaks Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 kalyway's update does not hav the kernel update, someone said.. my system runs perfect.. but when i shut it down, it does not pwr off.. the display goes off and the pwr leds are still on..

mtotho Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 Kalyway combo update does not have the kernel with it. search for the vanilla kernel update by kalyway on the bay and you will find a simple installer for 10.5.2 kernel. Also, unless you have nforce or amd board, i dont see what the big deal is with 'Devins modified version of netkas' 10.5.2 update' tutorial. It is as simple as copy and paste 3 command lines.. not brain surgery... and it is much quicker to download the real update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please help! lol @ mototho, umm dizzeeosx.. the problem with the delay is your 10.5.2 graphics driver (beta or new) doesnt work with the old kernel(9.1) in the 10.5.2 update. just update your kernel with the kalway kernal update from TPB and no more dealy..

scannerfm77 Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 my Xbench result from 106 to 104. strange... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shoarthing Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 this is my score in both 10.5.1 and 10.5.2 + graphics update Good to see you're pleased wth your update, but . . . . . . . XBench ain't the most accurate indicator of performance; & as you see from the attached snap comparing identically configured 10.5.1/10.5.2 installs, is a touch unclear at to the meaning of noticeably varying figures like - say - "user interface test" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fontace Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 @mtotho You are right, the official 10.5.2 update is not difficult to install at all. But did you noticed that, when running Disk Utility to check/repair permissions after the update, that some unrepairable SUID errors appear? This does not happen with the Kalyway update... I know that it can be ignored but does someone know why these file permissions errors appear?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dizeeosx86 Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 Ok folks figured it out and really worked like a charm. I installed Kaly 10.5.2 ComboUpdate, then rebooted. Took 3.2 mins to boot back up, then I repaired permissions and installed Kaly Patched Kernels. Rebooted. The computer than booted like 1 min. but after some playing around, and rebooting my E1705 boots in OSX in about 35 secs. from bios to gray screen and into the OS, I am impressed now. Note: If you install Leo Graphic update, the bench marks might fall slightly. I went from a 97 10.5.1, to a 110 10.5.2, but with graphics update 10.5.2 i am now about 94-96. so just a warning, and I didn't notice a difference in graphics. Also, Sleep blows, now my laptop locks up when it goes to sleep. I also had to redo powerManagement Kext to get the power meter, and had to delete again the AppleACPIThermal.kext to get the laptop running cool, which by the way was running at 76 and now is in the 40-50's, SWEET MUSIC!
