  • SMbios set to MacPro4,1. Actually, I'm not sure what I'm doing here. :) I choose this after several benchmark under different SMbios. In order to match with MacPro4,1, I edit FakeSMS.kext:
    smc-compatible: to smc-thurley
    REV: to ATkPAAAF[/*:m:gtzvdv93]
  • I can't remember which guide I follow to use Vervet frame buffer.
    Please find DSDT edited with VGA as attached DSDT_vervet.aml[/*:m:gtzvdv93]
  • 32bit and 64bit are working. I use 64bit.[/*:m:gtzvdv93]
[/*:m:gtzvdv93][/list:u:gtzvdv93]

  • All harddisk including the one connect to SATA III is recognized.[/*:m:gtzvdv93]

  • Sound card working[/*:m:gtzvdv93]

  • Network card not working yet.
    I just realized it when I write this post. :D Currently I'm using wireless network so it's not an issue for me.[/*:m:gtzvdv93]

  • Internal Card Reader working[/*:m:gtzvdv93]

  • Bluetooth Asus USB-BT21 working out of the box
    Option "Allow Bluetooth devices to wake this computer" grey out. Bluetooth device is able to work after wakeup.[/*:m:gtzvdv93]


  • Voip USB Adapter USB-B2k is recognized.
    But SkyMacMate make Ralink wireless utility hang (Wireless USB DWA-140). So it's useless to have SkyMacMate running and I don't plan find a compatible wireless usb adapter.
    Workaround #1. I use Voip USB Adapter inside Parallels Desktop running Windows. It's working perfectly with SkypeMate under Windows.
    Workaround #2. Use Wireless USB TP-Link TL-WN821N (please see more info below) and running in 32bit. SkypMacMate is working fine.[/*:m:gtzvdv93]

  • Logitech Webcam Pro 9000 is working.
    Quality is not as good as in Windows due to lag.[/*:m:gtzvdv93]

  • Apple Keyboard with Numeric Keypad
    Apple Magic Mouse
    Logitech Mouse M705
    Apple Magic Trackpad
    USB Extension Buffalo BSH4U005
    are working.
    Somehow computer sometime doesn't response to Apple Keyboard during booting. I often couldn't go to Bios "DEL button" or choose booting option "Tab button". Workaround: use normal PC keyboard when needed during booting.[/*:m:gtzvdv93]

  • Previously, I use Wireless USB TP-Link TL-WN821N. It's working, but it doesn't support 64bit.
    Software driver download directly from D-Link DWA-160. Installation is finished but failed. Change idProduct and idDevice in installed kext AtherosOtusMac.kext to match with TL-WN821N. Run Kext Utility after changed. Restart.
    Good thing with this device is that Voip USB Adapter USB-B2k is working properly by running SkyMacMate under Mac.[/*:m:gtzvdv93]

  • Apple Wireless Keyboard is working[/*:m:gtzvdv93]

  • Bluetooth Planex BT-MicroEDR2X is working.
    Bluetooth device is not working after computer wakeup. As I know, there is a workaround to solve this issue by restarting bluetooth driver.[/*:m:gtzvdv93]

Confirm: Update to 10.6.8 and working fine!


Update: I frequently experience hang in 64bit. It's running fine in 32bit and remember to re-run MultiBeast to install IOPCIFamily Fix.

Appreciate the guide, I have a similar build & ran into problems setting up audio in 10.6.8, do you have any pointers?

Thanks.

Hi Lump, try to mark ALC8xxHDA and AppleHDA RollBack under Audio when installing MultiBeast. The video is at 01:45.


Best regards,
 
I am a noob and I have the desperate desire to use Wireless USB TP-Link TL-WN821N...

Can you please spend a little more details to let a me understand how I can install it?

I'm not used to terminology and tools...
Please help :)
 
Hi twoace88!

I've tried your suggestion but rebooting I get a huge kernel panic!

Should I remove (how?) voodoo audio first?
