Plucka Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 From netkas.org new today netkas 9.2.0 kernel with fixed shutdown ToH kernel with fixed shutdown (and reboot). Can aneone test it and post a download link please .. Thanks A bit presumptuous, but will this work with Kalyway 10.5.1/2 as well? If so, is it just a matter of installing and rebooting? Hope someone has tested it and is willing to share? Cheers, Plucka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yuusharo Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 Success with this Kernel! Using a Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3R v2.0 and 8800GT 512mb. After upgrading Kalyway to 10.5.2 and removed NVInject and changed to gfx string. Full graphics support. I copied the kernel to '/' renamed it to "mach_shutdown" and modified the com.Apple.Boot.plist to use this mach_shutdown. Restart works with netkas' 10.5.2 SMBIOS but sleep does not. Now a few questions. Is there a downside performance-wise for not totally replacing the Vanilla kernel? I did *not* set any sort of permissions on mach_shutdown, is this bad? Will it hurt performance by not updating the kernel for future updates? A little hard to tell about that last one, but maybe someone who's been around here longer can tell me if having EFI will let me continue to use this modified ToH kernel in the future in case netkas or someone else decides not to update them.

If i remove Nvinject does my graphics card continue to work?? I have a GeForce 8800GTS 320MB, is this something to do with so called gfx string?? (which is something i've never heard of). I've upgraded to Kalyway 10.5.2 and installed Leopard Graphics update, now i cannot shutdown or sleep it anymore. and modifying com.apple.Boot.plist?? God what is this all about?? can you give some details, or a link? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

~pcwiz Posted March 1, 2008 Share Posted March 1, 2008 The whole process of renaming the kernel and all and changing the name in Boot.plist is not necessary. You can boot from an alternate kernel at startup by typing the kernel file name at the boot: prompt. For example, I save the original kernel as "vanilla" so I type vanilla at the boot: prompt and the vanilla kernel boots. Very easy. But great kernel, using it now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
