[GUIDE] Leopard on an XPS 1330/1530

[sksupra]

I was trying to intall Chameleon(downloaded Chameleon, opened the dmg and installed it with default options), but for some reason it either did not install or didn't do it properly then. Or should I have chosen something differently?

 

I know you don't dual boot, but maybe someone else is dual booting in here. So, I wanted to ask what guide they followed and if it was possible to dual boot on a laptop without making a new retail dvd which will have boot cd and the retail dvd in it.

 

Also, what is it all about the new Chameleon? What advantages or new features does it bring?

 

I am currently dual booting Windows 7 and Retail 10.5.6. What I did was (following a guide) edit the Mac install image to recognize MBR instead of GUID. Then Use Disk Utility to create 2 Partitions (the one for mac extended journaled and the one for Windows fat32). Install mac as usual then install windows on the second (fat32) drive. Windows needs to format it but it works after it has done that. After successfully installing both OS's I installed the EFI bootloader from OSX86 UNIVERSAL INSTALLER (i couldn't get chameleon to work for me). I am now dual booting and everything is great!

It appears that getting Retail install to work with dual booting is such a pain in the a** and I thought maybe I should stick with iAtkos just to get dual booting easier. So, I just wanted to know how big of a difference there is between stability of retail dvd and iatkos? And why is retail dvd size is like 7gb and iatkos like 2.5gb?

I can't speak to the stability comparison but the retail version is much faster and way easier to update. It's not difficult at all to edit the .mpkg for MBR recognition. Just get your hands on a retail version and follow this excellent tutorial :

[Danik_iceman]

Can anyone in here who is dual booting with retail dvd, upload a dvd with MBR recognition?

[Danik_iceman]

OK, I went and tried installing iAtkos 5i again. The installation went successful, and then it automatically rebooted, and when rebooting it got stuck at grey apple logo screen(also, there was a grey line about 1 inch thick at the top of the screen). So I tried booting with -v -s cups=1

and here what it showed.

 

 

Can anyone tell if I have to reinsall it or is there a fix for that?

[wingrunr21]

try booting with cpus=1. What options did you choose at install time in iAtkos?

[Danik_iceman]

I chose:

-Chameleon

-AppleDecrypt

-SMBiosResolver

-PS/2

-NVinject

-IntelSpeedStep a

 

I followed this guide: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=138929

 

When I try using just cpus=1

then I get this screen:

 

 

so I reboot, and get the grey apple logo screen again

 

My only other guess would be that I should've tried selecting PC EFI 9 instead of Chameleon. Or am I wrong here?

[Vi0]

try adding the voodookernel, and next time try to boot with -v (verbose mode) so that you can give us concrete information on what´s going on.

by adding vooodoo-kernel you also need seatbelt.kext

I've been away from OSX for a while (was trying Win7 and blew up my OSX install) and I am going to re-install it. Quick question I had, does it matter which version my retail OSX DVD is? I bought it back in Dec of 2007, I think its 10.5.0. Didnt know if this would cause any issues and following this guide, or if I should try and find a 10.5.6 image somewhere, or if its possible to slipstream my 10.5.0 to 10.5.6 (or other version in between) to make the install go smoother?

 

I also used a 10.5.0-DVD and had no problems at all by just installing the Combo Updater from Apple.

But I installed the bootloader afterwards and just booted from CD wingrunr21 attached to his 1. post. I didn't even had to "fool around" with the DSDT.aml, I didn't need it.

I have just about everything working perfectly now except for sleep. Whenever I sleep, the laptop will fall asleep for about 1 second and then it will instantly wake up. What could be causing this?

[gman8966]

Ran into a problem. I installed the beta kext for the SD card reader. When I insert an SD card, the whole computer locks up. Anyone else experiencing this? I realize this is just a beta kext, so maybe it doesn't work at all?

You didn't install VoodooUSBEHCI.kext

It does work I have installed it and it runs fine on my machine. Do you have an M1530 or an M1330?

I have an M1330.

[wingrunr21]

gman that's strange it doesn't work. Have you tried repairing permissions?

 

This is for everyone:

 

The voodoo team has released a new PS2 kext called VoodooPS2Controller. It works VERY well. It supports two-finger scrolling without FFScroll and also supports the scroll zones on synaptics touchpads. The two-finger scrolling is smooth and clean just like on a Macbook. It is VERY nice. You need to remove all of the following if you have them installed: ApplePS2Controller.kext, ACPIPS2Nub.kext, AppleACPIPS2Nub.kext. During installation make sure you check the Trackpad option so you can control the kexts options from System Preferences.

 

http://chameleon dot osx86 dot hu

 

There is also a new kext out called VoodooHDA. At the time being this kext does not work properly on M1330s or M1530s. Version 0.2.1 supports sound on the headphone ports and both microphones. Internal speakers do not work. Version 0.2.2 breaks everything. On M1530s version 0.2.1 supports all but internal mic. I do not know about 0.2.2.

 

Right now I am not recommending the use of VoodooHDA. In the next few versions I'm sure a large amount of bugs will be fixed and I will post updates.

Wingrunr21,

 

Is this really for everyone?

 

I thought I read on MACgirl's compilation thread that it didn't work well on the 1530 because it has an alps trackpad instead of synaptics like the 1330...

Hello.

 

Anyone with experience on the Dell 5520 UMTS / 3G Adapter?

I can't get it to work with patching the existing kexts with my ID's (as read in another topic regarding another Dell 3G Adapter)

 

Thank you!

[cpasjuste]

Hi wingrunr21, first thanks your for all the work done.

 

I have an xps 1330 with Nv card, i'v followed your guide with a iaktos DVD and it was perfect.

Now i would like to do a retail installation, so here is a few question before i start :

 

I would like to know, for my information, if your boot cd posted on the first post is up to date, and if it's based on boot-132 ?

 

Another question/confirmation, when the install is finalised, if i understand correctly, i should :

 

- Install Chameleon

- Replace the bootloader with nektas "PC EFI version 9" one

- finally add the DSDT.aml file ?

 

Thanks in advance,

David.

 

 

Quick edit : Currently i'm booting iaktos OSX with grub with the nektas boot file, could i still use this bootloader for retail install or do i need to install Chameleon ?

[cpasjuste]

Arg, i past the whole day trying to do a retail install but it's a no go on my xps 1330 with nvidia card and T9300 CPU.

 

I did exactly all the step :

 

- I use the retail 10.5 dvd

- I boot from the boot cd.

- I install leopard normally one my guid partition.

- I reboot with the boot cd.

- I install chameleon 1.0.11-12 + nektas boot + the DSDT.aml file pointed in the first post (also tried with chameleon 2)

 

With this setup, i get a lot of hpet error at startup, so i did a new DSDT.aml file with the gui and select new hpet method, now i do not have the HPET error anymore but it hang after "no servers can be used, exiting (mDNSResponder problem)" but i bet it's not my problem.

 

I tried with the intelCPU disable kext withtout succes too, in fact i tried all i could without any luck.

 

When booting with the boot cd there is no problem, even with the 10.5.6 update.

 

Any help would be very appreciated

[cpasjuste]

Pfiouuuu, i'v done it ....

 

I had to follow this trick : http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php...654&st=300#

 

I needed to copy the wingrunr21 boot-cd kext to the chamelon folder, i now have a great 10.5.6 retail setup with chameleon 2.

 

There still a few things to note :

 

- I was unable to have nvinject to work while puting the kext in the chameleon "/Extra/Extensions" folder, i have to put it in the normal folder ("/System/Library/Extensions").

 

- I can't make the touchpad to work, i need to use an usb mouse .. > Edit : fixed with voodoops2 from chameleon site, add to delete all the ps2 related kext from the Extra/extensions folder then install voodoops2.

 

If someone have some trick for that ...

 

In any case thanks for all the work shared here !

Hi Wingrunr21 and thanks a lot for your excellent Guide. I've allready asked for help on Macgirl's thread, but I have a specific question concerning your work.

 

As you might know, I have an issue with sleep : my XPS 1330 doesn't wake up after opening the lid, nor after activating sleep with the apple menu. I have no BIOS password, Clamshelldisplay and VoodooUSBEHCI are loaded, IOUSBFamily.kext has been properly edited.

 

On the first page, you explain that yours was waking up "probably 1 in 20 times". Is it better now ? Otherwise, I've installed superhai's DSDT.aml to get rid of ClamshellDisplay kext, but the NVinject's info.plist is quite long and I don't know where I should add the lines

<key>@0,built-in</key><data>AQ==</data>

inside it. Sorry for the newbie question...

 

I've a final question : I'm running Iatkos 10.5.4 and I never dared to update my system to 10.5.6. Anyway, everything works fine except Mobileme, wich needs latest version of OSX. My kernel is Vanilla, as I said I have a DSDT.aml, also Chameleon v2.0 and Appledecrypt. Do you think I could try a combo update ? Is it risky for my hack ? To be honnest, I don't really understand every update tutorials (I'm french) and I'm really affraid of losing everything...

 

Thank's again for the amazing job. Cheers in advance. Tweed.

I have no experience with these. If you get it to work please post how so I can update the guide.

First things first, yes my laptop sleeps correctly now. It is strange that it is not working for you with VoodooUSBEHCI.kext loaded. One problem you could be having is that Superhai's kexts are designed for Vanilla kexts and iAtkos may modify IOUSBFamily.kext. Can you post your kextstat for me?

 

Here is a snippet of my NVinject Info.plist:

 

<string>NVIDIA GeForce 8400 GS</string>
<key>name</key>
<string>NVDA,Parent</string>
<key>rom-revision</key>
<string>NVinject 0.2.2</string>
<key>@0,built-in</key>
<data>AQ==</data>

 

Lastly, I have no idea if updating iAtkos will break it. As far as I know the only sure-fire way not to break things is to have a retail install. The update tutorial I link to in the guide is really your best bet. If you have specific questions on the guide you can post back here or PM me for clarification and I'll do my best to help.

About retail install, I don't have much time for now. And the first install was so hard that I'm really scared to fail the new one... I'll wait a few more weeks. Anyway, thank you for the advice.

 

If I may... I asked you one more question on Macgirl's thread : I didn't see any difference beetween IntelEnhancedSpeedstep and VoodooPower. Is it necessary to edit the info.plist to obtain good results ? It seems a bit complicated and the app doesn't allow to change anything.

 

Thanks again.

I'm running VoodooPower "stock". You probably won't see much of a difference between the two kexts. I just know VoodooPower was made for Intel in mind.

I managed to get the graphics working through the DSDT. It only for M1530 with the 8600M GT. I made it from a EFI String that I got from OSX86Tools and with the code from ACPI Patcher.

DSDT breaks the left side USB ports and all devices attached to that bus on M1530 since 5.7.
