What do you mean? My hack is not broken i just replaced EVOx86 kext with yours and it killed my restart. With your kext my hack just log off and stayed there and would neither restart nor shut down or hung, there was just coming plenty of messages

PIC still valid

about to call reboot

pic still valid

....

....

....

about to call reboot

 

and so on!

That is what I mean. Something on your hack is broken. Start by adding a signature. Thank you.

Doesn't work for me.

Shutdown has always worked, but never restart/sleep. This kext has made no difference. When I click restart the last two lines shown are:

 

MACH Reboot

Something about Airport disconnecting

 

And then nothing else happens. If you need any other information, please let me know. I'd love to get restart working.

Hi,

 

My board is a ZOTAC geforce 9300 mini-itx board. Processor is E7400. Am running Snow 10.6.2.

 

The kext doesn't work for me. By this I mean that doing a restart from the Apple menu leads only to a partial shutdown leaving fans powered, so no actual restart occurs. System does a shutdown from apple menu when asked to with no problem (though I realise this is irrelevant to your work).

 

Openhaltrestart.kext does everything okay for me though and so it is no problem for me to just swap back to that kext and remove yours.

 

Just to let you know, this was tested from the extra/extensions folder without using an extensions.mkext. If for some reason your kext needs to be loaded as part of an mkext then let me know and I will test again using one.

 

Hope this helps in your development testing.

Check that it is loading, do in terminal - kextstat - to show what kexts loaded. Did you rebuild the kext cache after replacing? Did your repair permissions?

Seems to be loading, permissions all re-done, caches cleared etc. Booting with -v shows the kext as "loaded" and also, here is the output of kextstat (see item 16):

Restart from Apple menu with OSXRestart still does not produce a full restart, but OpenHaltRestart when it is swapped to replace OSXRestart gives full functionality. Can you see any other kexts that might cause a conflict?

 

Anyway, glad the new kext works for most of you, and if you want me to run more tests then I am happy to.

There's one report where OSXRestart.kext didn't work until after the removal of VoodooPowerMini.kext

I have a confirmation from another user, so that makes 3 of 3 hacks that i know of...

Is there someone with a working OSXRestart.kext and VoodooPowerMini.kext combo?

Master Chief great work...

I think i have discovered why some people might have reported that your kext isn't working...

I tryed it on both my Hacks (check signature) and it didn't work on neither of them, so the idea popped in my mind that it could be a conflict with the VoodooPowerMini.kext - 10.6.x and so it was, after removing the voodoo kext the restart after sleep worked...

 

I hope i was helpful and that this 2 kexts will be able to coexist in the future releases...

Continue the great work u are doing on the P5K (waiting for the DVD - autosleep fix ;) )and Hack scene...

THX

 

True.

 

Thank you master for your great work :P

 

There is a problem, with voodoopowermini installed, osxrestart don't work, don't restart after sleep-wake. If I delete voodoopowermini then osxrestart works great ;)

 

Ciao

I don't have the source code of VoodooPowerMini so I can't help you with this. Sorry. And looking at VoodooPower... yeah that is definitely a problem.

Why it is working with other kexts if it is broken? No offense, i just wonder!

Why it is working with other kexts if it is broken? No offense, i just wonder!

I know that your hack is broken simply because what I do is the universal restart method for Intel based boards. I even checked the latest BIOS update for your motherboard, which you should be using, and I see what I need there. Also, someone with a similar board here confirmed it to work for him.

 

And with broken I mean dysfunctional, malfunctioning, not working like Apple intended OS X to work. Not being able to restart properly so to speak. Not that you see cracks in the case or whatever – broken can be used in many different contexts.

 

I tell you this: One of the installed kexts on your system, or the boot loader (or whatever) can break: sleep, restart, shutdown and even prevent proper boot ups. Just like my Apple Mac Pro (see signature) was broken by Parallels Desktop. Heck even your DSDT can break it.

 

Here shutdown and restart didn't work, on my hack, because of a broken boot loader. One version works while another update broke restart again.

 

And when EvoReboot or OpenHaltRestart works for you... both using the same hook, then my kext should work for you.

 

Here's a nice one: You can open a door by force, with a crowbar, or by using the key in the door lock. Like it was designed to work, which is exactly what I prefer to keep doing. Even when that means that it won't work for some, unfortunately. Your motherboard should however work with OSXRestart.kext simply because what I use can be found in your BIOS, and thus something is broken. Most definitely.

 

The fact that some people here can only restart with EvoReboot or OpenHaltRestart, where a clean method doesn't work, that simply confirms what I already know... they need a crowbar to restart their hack. Which means that they have work to do. And that is where this forum comes in place :D

 

Happy Hacking

Doesn't work for me.

Shutdown has always worked, but never restart/sleep. This kext has made no difference. When I click restart the last two lines shown are:

 

MACH Reboot

Something about Airport disconnecting

 

And then nothing else happens. If you need any other information, please let me know. I'd love to get restart working.

I noticed something that may or may not help.

I'm running Intel GMA X3100 graphics. This kext doesn't work with 10.6 or 10.6.1

I then downloaded and installed 10.6.2 manually and installed it. I clicked restart, and restart worked. Unfortunately my machine won't boot with 10.6.2 so I can't tell you if it's 10.6.2 that fixes it or not.

 

The change from 10.6.1 to 10.6.2 for my specific machine is the X3100 drivers change from 32bit to 64bit.

 

Hope that helps.

I see.. I admit that I haven't checked 10.6.0 nor 10.6.1 but I will do that now. Good to have spare drives...

 

I did a quick: Boot > Restart and Boot -> Sleep -> Restart with both 10.6.0 (from USB stick) and 10.6.1 (my backup drive) and it is working here. Not that this helps you, but it is good to know.

Scratch that. It doesn't work in /E/E with Chameleon RC3, but does work in /S/L/E. On 10.6.1, I haven't tested 10.6.0.

My backup drive with OS X 10.6.1 also has Chameleon RC3 on it, and I used /Extra/Extensions/ without any problem whatsoever.

 

OT: I just noticed that using "Snow Leopard Backup" as drive label gets a little messy in Chameleon. It's too long.

Did you created Extensions.mkext from that Extensions folder?

Guess not.

I works just fine here on all my hardware (Intel)

I used Kext Utility after installing this kext.

 

It looks like it was me though (I'm still quite new to this). I've moved it to /E/E and it's now working there too. I've just restarted 4 times in a row, and that works fine.

 

I did have a couple of failed restarts when it was in /S/L/E, but I don't know what caused that.

I'll see if anything I do causes it not to start, but for now it's working properly in /E/E. :(

 

Thanks for the update Master Chief.

So, any ideas MasterChief why OSXrestart doesn't work on my board, but OpenHaltRestart does (see my kextstat output in earlier post?).

As additional info I can tell you that I use a Chameleon RC3 from a USB stick to boot from.

Just wondering, because my board works fine, DSDT is pretty well developed for it, so obviously there is some reason why your good work is not functioning but it isn't the VoodooPower issue - I am running without disabler kexts and using speedstep.

Any thoughts?

No, but let's find out shall we?

Which is cool as I already confirmed it to work with Chameleon RC3.

You may think that the DSDT is fine, like I did a year long for my P5K Pro. I however found out, after many long hours and many confirmations from people here in this forum, that we had a lot of work ahead of us – a reduction of 29K is pretty amazing isn't it.

 

Anyway. Let's try to find out what the problem is. Now. I see two kexts I like to rule out:

 

100 0 0x317d0000 0xf000 0xe000 com.iospirit.driver.rbiokithelper (1.5.5) <63 33 31 5 4 3 1>

110 0 0x2abe0000 0x3000 0x2000 com.bresink.driver.BRESINKx86Monitoring (5.0) <12 11 10>

 

Make a backup first, and then do a rm -r kextname.kext for both of them. Then wait for:

 

/System/Library/Caches/com.apple.kext.caches/Startup/Extensions.mkext

 

to be rebuild. Note that this is very important. Next is a restart to startup without the two kexts.

 

LOL I just woke up and I was in desperate need of my usual caffeine shot. Hello cappuccino . Hmm. Much better now ;)

Okay - will do it and report back......

 

To be honest, I am not sure why I am working at this as OpenHaltRestart works fine for me (!), but I am just intrigued to see what it is with my kexts or the board (or DSDT) that is blocking your kext from working.

 

I'll let you know results tomorrow.

 

Cheers,
