ps2 kext 10.4.5

[felix]

I have successfully upgraded my 10.4.4 install to 10.4.5. I needed to copy some kext over from 10.4.3,mainly networking, usb and ps2. However, I am still having a problem with my ps2 as it says it was not installed properly and currently have no keyboard. I do have a usb mouse that is working. Is there a special ps2 kext for 10.4.5 or could I just pick up a ps2 to usb adapter?

One more thing, haven't seen any other posts regarding this but since my update to 10.4.5 my bios is acting really wierd. I have to boot several times in order for my keybord to work to select a drive to boot from. I will try another keyboard later but I am wondering could this have anything to do with efi? Has anyone else noticed this? Any help is appreciated and thanks in advance.

Have you repaired the permissions on your HDD (from Disk Utility)?

As for using PS/2 keyboard and USB mouse on the same time, it's better to avoid that. Try to use both PS/2 or USB keyboard and mouse.

when i installed 10.4.5 its boot ok, but 3 pop up windows appear saying that the following kextensions couldnt be loaded

 

ps2cotroller, ac97audio, ps2mouse.

 

And i get no audio, keyboard and mouse on my laptop.... i search on google and fiind the following solution:

 

Press F8 to get to the boot menu, select your OSX and input the following follow by enter:

 

-s –x –v

 

With those commands, yo get to the terminal, where yo have to execute the following:

 

cd sbin

fsck –fy

mount –uw /

 

chmod –R g-w /System/Library/Extensión/ApplePS2Controller.kext

chmod –R g-w /System/Library/Extensión/AppleAC97Audio.kext

chmod –R g-w /System/Library/Extensión/AppleAC97AudioIntelICH.kext

 

then type exit, the OS will rebot and you with keyboard, mouse and audio working.

Thanks for the post about this. I've been running into problems with 10.4.5 and my ps/2 keyboard and mouse. I'm going to give this a try!

I just tried this and when I tried to use the chmod commands it said no such extensions existed

[sorefinger]

Yes I got the same message also "no such extensions existed"

 

so just changed /System/Library/Extension to /System/Library/Extensions

 

and it works fine now.

 

Thanks,

 

Just need to get Audio IN working on Realtek ALC850 8-channel CODEC

on Asus P5GD1-VM, any ideas ?

Hello ive tried this patch on an IBM Thinkpad and the keyboard was working fine but once i reboot the system it will not work again !!

if you can use one keyboard, using the following command

 

sudo chown -R root:wheel /Volumes/your_parition_name/System/Library/Extensión/ApplePS2Controller.kext
