Hey I have a buddy that I am trying to install Leopard on his E1405 with GMA 950. We can install leopard and run the patches, however after we try to boot it just get past the boot loader and then restarts the machine. Is there a different post patch that I should run after the install than the regular brazil mac one? Thank you again for all your help.

REASONS FOR SAYING THAT?

Because I made my Leo instalation on my Dell Laptop with BrazilMAC method/guide and then I installed the PC EFI 3,4,5 and 5.1 and works perfectly, it even accept the 10.5.1 without modifying one sigle thing.

 

Is possible that it could not work, but it not depends of the BrazilMAC DVD, it depends on which hardware you have, but since this is a thread for Dell Core Duos that afirmation is false.

any advance of both core trouble on dell laptops? its really that Pc_efi fix that? or im wrong

 

I tried with Toh release, but vanilla's kernel or 10.5.1 update don't work on my system. But if you want to know... try. I'll try 10.5.1 update with kalyway's beta, to see what's happening.

Sleep works very well on my E1505 with latest netkas sleep kernel.

But I'm not able to boot with both cores (SIGPIPE ERROR) ....

 

 

Ok exactly what setup you have ? Which kernel ? Which install ? Any special kext ? What Video card you have ?

fullstack can you elaborate on this a little more? what are your hardware details?I heard that it's either speedstep or sleep. if you use the sleep kernel you won't get speedstep. can you confirm this? or did they come up with a new kernel? Not that I see in the channels.thanks
Pretty Unusable here! I wonder if its because Juan has core duo not core 2 duo ?
I have the same config as Juan with core duo. Only one is working under Leo (10.5.1, efi). I tried all kinds of kernels and kexts, no go. If I enable both Leo doesn't even boot. not sure how he got it to work. according to the channels it's impossible unless you can live with lots of stuttering.
Can somebody point me to a good solution for the mouse cursor problem?Image here:http://img147.imageshack.us/img147/3186/picture2ca9.png
looks like iGuru is getting closer to a solution. Paulicat's new kexts don't work on Dell's but other gma950 cards.read here:http://forum.osx86scene.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=2734

maybe rephrase my sentence to be ended with "...on some type of laptops" :)

As expected, kalyway's beta can't be updated. However, i tested few times vanilla's kernel on this beta release, and i confirm, sleep out works perfectly. But GUI relaunch itself each minute, that's the big deal.

what i used:

-kalyway's DvD

-Efi bootloader

-Vanilla's kernel and applesmbios.kext from package (that's all).

-need to remove appleefiruntime.lext and AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext

 

But as i said, i can't test it on Toh or brazilmac.
