We've received reports that the rather creative OSx86 hacking community has created another release, this time to update existing 10.4.1 installations to many of the new features introduced in 10.4.3. Sources indicate that the new security features implemented in 10.4.3 have prevented a full release and that this update is in lieu of that release.

Wow! Great work to those that made this possible! The patch makes my system feel a lot better. Safari is quick, flash works great! Thank you!

 

I have my before & after Xbench scores here http://ladd.dyndns.org/xbench/merge.xhtml?...391&doc2=139307

 

Not much of an increase but my system was pretty smooth anyway before.

well,

 

in garageband the amp simulations are still not running.. as far as the update, I dont think this

improves any speed in SSE2 processors.. powerpc programs are still slower.

Over all its a little faster in terms of response and the updated programs are fine (safari/quicktime etc..)

 

but I guess its time to dump my xeons <_<

The question is, is it justified to upgrade a current system with QE enabled and very stable? Upgrade just to get flash working is not by any means justifiable. If this is true, then is it another good step forward. At least furthur than where we all were before the patch. Without justification, i'm staying put B).

 

Specially because the flash binary from 10.4.3 works fine in 10.4.1 with maxxuss's 10.4.2 exec patch <_<

I also think it would be interesting to note if this update includes any of the new kexts and bundles added or updated in 10.4.3 . We need the new kexts, specially for non working NICs, sound, etc.

 

Also, 10.4.3 is known to be fully multilanguage, so it would also be useful to know if the patch adds this functionality.

About Kexts.. I didn't see any new kexts with this update.My via rhine does not work yet. About multilanguage support: Now I can see applications in spanish, but.. The finder's menu still stays in english (And I dunno why).

Updated my system and flash works. Just watched a flash, and closed safari. Loaded itunes and it was screwy: http://www.avexnet.co.uk/itunes.jpg

 

Loaded Safari and it just gave me some blank dialog boxes. I force-quitted itunes, loaded safari and it was fine. And itunes works now. Never seen this before. Rosetta bug? I've got an SSE3 CPU.

Well it looks as if 10.4.3 has mysteriously leaked! I looked at the Recent Torrents at a certain site about Pirates and there it was...

I guess its of no use for "non-devs" atm, or is it?

 

 

I'm going to dl the update package only at this moment. Thanks for the good work guys :P

I wonder if it will be better to wait for a proper release. To many problems here IMO.
