Xosx86 Posted February 12, 2008 Author Share Posted February 12, 2008 Got it fixed:)For laptop users: Keyboard & mouse would stop working unless you backup your AppleACPIplatform.kext and restore it before rebooting. This AppleACPIPlatform.kext (with PS2 support) doesnt work with stock kernels so you would have to backup your old kernel as well. Even if you are using ACPIPS2nub.kext wont work; this kext has to be recompiled for 10.5.2... What I did is re-installed AppleACPIplatform.kext AFTER UPDATE BEFORE RESTART with the Kext Helper b7 app that came with the kalyway 5.1 install. Reboot and bob's your uncle!! ******Now about this mac crashes:( anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With gma950! Anyone know how to fix? Hi Xosx86, This is usually because you need to revert to the older AppleIntelIntegratedFrameBuffer.kext find your previous working version under 10.5.1 and replace the current version, remove kext caches and reboot.

Aldos Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 i will ask the person who give me that hint i didn't test it so i don't know even what is in the zip package i don't have my hackintosh here so i must wait until i'l go home but i think u should extract the acpips2nub.kext and replace the old one<br />make a backup first ! i don't think u need cpp file Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrumBrum74 Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 Can't find any files to replace. Hopefully someone can make a package we can install. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aldos Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 sorry, but i have no more details about that until now i will try it by myself and we'll see what's happening i is supposed that the kext is from the iAKTOS or Kalway DVD, that worked for 10.5.1 i will try to extract it with Pacifist and check if it is the same file i don't know what to say i have the same problem and i was very excited about that fix but it seems that it is not a good one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fr0 Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 So I'm having the same problem as everyone else with my Toshiba Laptop. Here's what I've done so far (with no luck): - I restored AppleACPIPlatform kext right after installing 10.5.2 patch, didn't work. - I booted from the original Kalyway 10.5.1 disc and restored AppleACPIPlatform and AppleSMBIOS kexts, didn't work - I noticed the ACPIPS2nub kext thing on boot, so I grabbed a USB keyboard (which works), compiled the kext using Xcode and installed it. After this, I got a kernel panic. Anyone else have anything that could help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrumBrum74 Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 I couldn't get my system back up and running after the update. I'm going back to Kalyway 10.5.1 and hope for a 10.5.2 update from Kalyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaska Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 Restore AppleSMBIOS.kext This worked for me, Restored it from my backup of the entire extensions folder, and even after the graphics update everything returned to normal on a Acer EX4620Z.

Aldos Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 There is an update combo from Kalyway search the forum it seems that the acpips2nub kext is not working in 10.5.2 somebody just said that the track[ad an keyboard is working just fine after restore AppleACPIPlatform.kext but be carefully ! u should use the kext helper when replace ACPI and mark the option to touch the mkext and repair permisions before reboot otherwise, the system will crash !

meisterk Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 Same here, I lost my PS/2 keyboard, it doesn't work even in single or safe mode. I restored AppleSMBIOS and AppleACPIPlatform from 10.5.1, didn't do the trick. Any ideas for a fix? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aldos Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 i've noticed that the AppleACPIPlatform in my rig is the same like in iATKOS dvd so, i think that 10.5.2 update don't replace this kext it seems that is the explanation for they who changed the kext without success Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meisterk Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 I fixed it! I had to use my old Tiger install's ApplePS2Controller.kext (that kext was grabbed from this forum), and my PS/2 keyboard worked!
