    Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro HAckintosh

    I have done it. And I have to say, thank you RehabMan. The perl patches worked flawlessy. To anyone wondering what the "catch" is, there is none. Simply open a terminal, make a backup copy of your mach_kernel from your USB installer, run the perl patches against them (yes, both of them) and...

    Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro HAckintosh

    I don't know... I bought this Yoga 2 and it seems really good with battery. I am just an old python developer... But I definitely am getting a full work day out of it. By that I mean two split sessions. 6 hours in the morning, then I plug it in, and then I use it the rest of the evening and it...

    Asus UL80J - Successful install

    Sorry, I got this figured out a long time ago and haven't had time to post. Regarding my laptop, it was the video chipset. But since the video chipset is integrated into the mobo, I had to replace the whole thing. Lion boots fine for me. I had to use an older version of the NVIDIA kexts that...

    Asus UL80J - Successful install

    well this sucks. I sat down to install lion on this thing and when I pushed the power button to turn it on, the fans powered up and all the lights came on, but the screen is black and it won't do anything. I wish there was a way to test if it's the motherboard or the CPU. Non beep codes or...

    Asus UL80J - Successful install

    I am getting ready to. I have to get xcode 4.3 working. And I don't feel like hacking around on some snow leopard installer for it to work. Its made for Lion, so I am going to try and install Lion... I will report back once I try it out.

    Asus UL80J - Successful install

    Well I'm not sure how well your laptops intel graphics are supported. Never tried it but i think i remember it is hard to work around, and that is most likely the reason why you can't boot. As far as your desktop goes you won't be able to install it on there either. I know for sure that the...

    Asus UL80J - Successful install

    No I was talking about someone elses computer. For my install I just did iBoot + multibeast and a bunch of tweaking. Make sure you set the sata mode in your bios correctly to ahci... do you have an NVIDIA card?

    Asus UL80J - Successful install

    Just tested, working fine. Sound was something I never had to mess with, so I don't know how it got fixed or what kext its using. I believe I installed voodoohda experimental in multibeast. My friend just dropped off his desktop. Asrock p55 pro with core i5 750 and nvidia gt 240. You have no...

    Asus UL80J - Successful install

    So after adding voodoobattery.kext I really think we have done a good job here. Same hardware as a macbook pro only 1/3rd of the cost :)

    Vanilla kernel should be all you need. 10.3.0. That plus the boot file. Keep in mind that boot file has 1.2ghz hardcoded in it. My guess is if the clock speed didn't change then the boot file wasn't actually swapped or snow leopard is just reporting it wrong. This is all done in software :)

    Asus UL80J - Successful install

    No kidding. I was sitting there trying to figure out how exactly 64-bit hexadecimal variables worked under unix when I just took a step back and asked myself why I was going through all of this. I am a developer and only one portion of my career has to do with osx. iOS emulators only run in...

    Asus UL80J - Successful install

    Sorry, I think me typing busratio of 16 and 17 was a mistake. but honestly I found the number didn't matter. The system would not boot without a busratio being set between somewhere between 7 and 24. Either way, the intel website lists the busratio for our CPU as 9. So that is what im using as...

    Yep, webcam is working. The image I took of myself on the prior page was taken from the webcam. I believe both KZH and I both saw the webcam begin to work after the 10.6.4 update. Your sound and keyboard good now? I just recompiled my modified chameleon and got it running at 177mhz fsb frq...

    Asus UL80J - Successful install

    Element, I went ahead and updated my instructions a few pages back and added two things. 1. An extra box to check in multibeast that will get your sound working. Basically just install VoodooHDA Official and reboot and your sound will work perfectly. 2. I added a link to all of the kexts and...
