jb90000 Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Some highlights from apple: What's included in this update: Upgrades Safari to version 4.0.2. Improves the accuracy of full history search in Safari 4. Resolves an issue in which certain resolutions might not appear in the Display pane in System Preferences. Dragging an Aperture image into Automator now invokes an Aperture action instead of incorrectly invoking an iPhoto action. Resolves an issue that could prevent importing of large photo and movie files from digital cameras. Improves overall Bluetooth reliability with external devices, USB webcams and printers. Addresses an issue that could cause extended startup times. Improves iCal reliability with MobileMe Sync and CalDav. Addresses data reliability issues with iDisk and MobileMe. Improves overall reliability with AFP. Improves overall reliability with Managed Client. Improves compatibility and reliability for joining AirPort networks. Improves Sync Service reliability. Includes additional RAW image support for several third-party cameras. Improves compatibility with some external USB hard drives. Includes latest security fixes.

macimesser Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 And the best is - it seems to be save to install for Hackintosh, because I wrote this from my freshly to 10.5.8 updatet IDeneb. In my case, the only things I have to do after install: 1. permission repair, 2. Reinstall NewHDIconfix, 3. Reinstall TMfix, thats it... Looks like it boots faster than before - okay.... Enjoy!

Silent_Panther Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 just updated my 10.5.7 to 10.5.8 w/o bigger issues after the upgrade I just replaced the AppleSMBios with version 28 and reverted AppleHDA for sound Some kext get updated while the upgrade but the kext timestamp does not get updated. This is valid for the two files mentioned above which is why it took me a couple of minutes to find them ;-) I'm running an Asus P5Q Pro with Q9550 CPU and ATI 3870 with QE David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psyklops Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 Upgraded from an iAtkos 10.5.7 build. Just downloaded the 10.5.8 update (non combo) from here: http://support.apple.com/downloads/ I boot my OSX off an external e-sata drive connected via a jmicron controller... No issues there. Simply ran the update and didn't need to do anything. Everything is working including the audio (kX Audio) video is fine and my USB hard drives are now mounting properly - it used to not be detected and/or hang the system. So far so good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maroder Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 Regarding Sleep not working anymore. It doesn't by any means have anything to do with this little sower saving option, which had to be enabled in 10.5.7 to fix sleep? Sorry for the german screen of my power saving options, but it should point you in the right direction. It should have been ticked for sleep to work in 10.5.7. Could someone who already has updated to 10.5.8 check if sleep works when this option ist unticked? Cheers, Maroder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iJonlive Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 I'm afraid to update. I'm still back on 10.5.6 Because 10.5.7 Completely killed my install. I have a dell XPS M140 With a Intel Centrino Processor Intel Graphics, and 2GB of Ram, Only Thing I've ever changed is upgrading the ram to 2GB and adding a new wireless card (intel -> broadcom) If anyone could tell me how to update or give me any advice I would really appreciate it.

macimesser Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 Just did it ... still no keyboard and trackpad! :-) repair permissions helps only sometimes in case of slow system, not with keyboard or trackpad. Is the system performance better now? Regarding Sleep not working anymore. It doesn't by any means have anything to do with this little sower saving option, which had to be enabled in 10.5.7 to fix sleep? Sorry for the german screen of my power saving options, but it should point you in the right direction. It should have been ticked for sleep to work in 10.5.7. Could someone who already has updated to 10.5.8 check if sleep works when this option ist unticked? Cheers, Maroder Hallo Maroder, da Du ein deutsches System benutzt, gehe ich einfach mal davon aus, das Du auch die Sprache sprichst. Also in meinem Fall funktioniert der Sleep-Modus. Früher hatte ich auch Probleme damit und hatte das Feature abgeschaltet. Ich habe es gerade eben ausprobiert und es klappt wunderbar. Die Checkbuttons, die Du hast, habe ich allerdings gar nicht. Bei mir gibt es nur 2 Optionen: 1. Wenn möglich Ruhezustand der Festplatten aktivieren - habe ich an und 2. Aktivieren des Ruhezustands über Ein-/Ausschalter ermöglichen - habe ich nicht an. To make a long story short: In my case sleep is working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimmydigital00 Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 I simply removed disabler.kext from my extensions.mkext and from extra/extensions, rebooted and now sleep works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silent_Panther Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 I tried to boot in verbose mode and I obtain this error :"failed to load extension com.apple.driver.applesmbios" Maybe if I install this kext again I could fix the problem .... As I wrote above I had to reinstall the AppleSMBios since the upgrade to 10.5.8 did some changes inside this file. I was getting the same message (in yellow) while booting with -v. I'm using version 28, search in this forum for it My approach is to take a whole backup of the extension folder before the upgrade so I can more easily go back for single kext files and backup the new ones again before I overwrite them with the old ones so I can go back to them as well if needed ;-) David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haze295 Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 For anyone who wants an easy way to update... Please head over to Netkas.org. Follow the easy steps and use OSX86tools and you'll be all set. I added the step of backing up my extensions (kexts) with OSX86tools and reinstalling using osxTools and my system is 100% 10.5.8 Cheers guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
