Does Intel's New X79 Support Lion? [SOCKET 2011]

[Octavean]

Thanks for the help and suggestions.

I've tried multi beast 4.5.2 using:
-ALC8xxHDA
-AppleHDA Rollback
-ALC898 (Non-DSDT)

Audio still doesn't work. However, under audio its listed as "Audio ID 892". I know I opted for 898 though. Not sure why it shows up as 892. Is there a way to manually wipe the audio settings and try again. Right now I am using USB audio and it works but I would rather get the motherboard audio working.

I also seem to be having a problem with Flash video not playing. I wonder if it has anything to do with the audio issue.

Octavean, what motherboard are you using? is it the GA-P35C-DS3R like in your specs?

No sorry that is an old system that I am no longer using.

The system in question has the following configuration:

Intel Core i7 3930K
Asus P9X79 Deluxe motherboar
24GB DDR3 (combo of G.Skill / Corsair kits)
Corsair Force Series 3 SSD 120GB
8800GTS 640MB (will likely replace with HD 6870)
Asus BD / DVD combo drive
Antec P180 case
Coolermaster Hyper 212 Plus (RR-ACCY-2011-R1 Intel LGA 2011 Retention Bracket)
Antec EarthWatts 650W Green PSU
Logitech S-150 1.2 Watts 2.0 Digital USB Speakers
eVGA UV+ USB video adaptor
Asus VE278Q Black 27” LED backlight display (on 8800GTS)
Viewsonic VX2235wm 22” LCD (on 8800GTS)
Gem 19” LCD (on eVGA UV+)

Native powermanagement seems pretty far fetched now for socket 2011. Apple stealth launched a "new" mac pro today. Still on the same hardware except a minor processor upgrade

TopNotch 2011 Machine

Hey guys,

i would like to build a Top Notch 2011 Setup, but i am a lil bit confused that nearly nobody use Gigabyte Mainboards..?

Anyway, this is the Wishlist:

Intel i7 3930K or Xeon E5-1650
Gigabyte X79-UD5
64 GB Corsair XMS3 CL9
ATI Radeon 6850
2x Crucial M4 512GB SSD with RAID0
3x 2TB WD Caviar Black
Seasonic 860 Watt Platinum PSU


I know that the sleep function doesnt work yet for s2011, but its for me not important, just need to be rock-solid.


Did u guys see any trouble in the Setup?

the MacBook Pro (Mid 2012) Software Update have new kernel and many new kext.. i'm using the new kernel and AICPU and the system seem to be a little more fast in my x79 setup.

Re: If intel new X79 support lion?

I was able to get Lion installed on my ASuS P9X79 Deluxe. Doesn't recognize the CPU. I have no working sound or wifi yet. The network cards and bluetooth worked. I just used the kexts from unibeast to get the network cards working.

Here everything works exception audio over HDMI and wireless (WiFi)

This is the AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext from the MBP 2012 updater. I can boot with it with no problems. I do have an Ivy Bridge CPU, though.

Maybe Apple will skip LGA2011. Did you see this?

if you guys have asus motherboard, and running with all default settings. you can try to enable epu on the bios. this will allow multiplier to go down to 12x. now i have two multiplier. 12x and 36x.
