Konami® Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 Hi. Can somebody explain me how do I install this ? Do i install the kext, or the folder ? How ? Thanks a lot, i'm quit bad in hackintosh's world. You need to recompile in Xcode, here is the kext: AppleSMBIOSEFI.kext.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitch_de Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 You need to recompile in Xcode, here is the kext: Is it filled with 10.5.6 source code also or state of 10.5.5(4) ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Konami® Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 Is it filled with 10.5.6 source code also or state of 10.5.5(4) ? It can work in any OS X Leopard version, I recompiled with the latest version of Xcode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bart86 Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 Hello, is there any way (and if not could you add it), to change the Processor identified in System Profiler? We have found a package "MS Silverlight" that won't install because it uses the following command to check host architecture: system_profiler SPHardwareDataType -xml | grep "Intel" On my system, a Gigabyte 965P DS3 board with retail install of 10.5.4 then upgraded to 10.5.6, and using your kext, that command doesn't return anything. Also, only Processor Speed is reported in System Profiler. Thanks!, Bart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks!, Bart That's weird, I have a GA P35 DS3L board and it show correctly in system profile... perhaps could be a conflicting kext that you had already or someone with more knowledge can explain you more about this error BTW: I already had installed MS Silverlight and everything is fine in here.

xumix Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 I have a GA P35 DS3L board and it show correctly in system profile...

Bart86 Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 So for me, with vanilla 10.5.6 and AppleACPIPlatform.kext 1.2.4, this injector fails to update Model Name and Model Identifier. If I drop back to version 1.0.3 of AppleACPIPlatform.kext, it successfully inserts those values. Would like to use the current vanilla AppleACPIPlatform.kext.

kizwan Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 I have the same issue, I think we will have to wait until someone created an AppleSMBIOSEFI that works with the latest AppleACPIPlatform Hi, Previously, before updated to 10.5.6, did your processor detected properly for example; "Core 2 Duo" or "Core 2 Quad" or etc? My old desktop (it belong to my friend now), using Intel motherboard Q35 chipset with Core 2 Duo, OSX detected it as "2.66GHz Unknown processor". It was using JaS 10.5.4 updated to 10.5.5. On my notebook however OS X don't have problem detecting the processor. I have tried both SMBIOSResolver & AppleSMBIOSEFI on that desktop but still with the same result. kizwan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tibetfreedom Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 Thank you for this .kext it really works well, no crashing on about this mac etc... However it does not show my processor and buss speed correctly I have a 1.8 ghz core 2 duo which shows as 450 mhz and buss speed is 800 ghz but shows as 200ghz.. is this important for apps etc or is it OK to leave as it is. Thanks again... Also is there a new version...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Templeton Peck Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 About This Mac still crashes for me on my Hack Pro (works fine on my Hackbook Nano). I'm using this with the vanilla AppleSMBIOS kext. I think I'm the only one left with this problem. One of Netkas' old kexts was working for me up to 10.5.5. No other SMBIOS or enabler has worked for 10.5.6, including this one. But it seems to work for everyone else, so at least I know that my next hackintosh won't have this problem. So nice job, anyway!

Onixs Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 How can we get rid of the "error 35" when using AppleSMBiosEFI? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitch_de Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 How can we get rid of the "error 35" when using AppleSMBiosEFI? No - search here for UUID , fixes UUID problem which is reason for the error 35 logged at startup in the system.log. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thorazine74 Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 It would be nice if we could include the uuid fix in this kext, like smbios enabler do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Konami® Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 where we can find the uuid fix? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacUser2525 Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 where we can find the uuid fix? Two ways you can do it firstly the thread below by using the DSDT.aml it can generate with the fix or by copying the IONetworkingFamily into the .kext named the same replacing the one already in there in the Contents directory I think I have attached this file. http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=142434 IONetworkingFamily.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
