macOS 10.6.0 Hardware Compatibility Portable Computers Desktop Computers Hardware Components

This is a component level hardware compatibility list. We want to keep it as accurate as possible, but please, do not entirely rely on this list when buying hardware. Add which parts you have working in the categories listed below, or create a new category. Please keep alphabetical order inside the categories. The categories themselves are ordered by popularity. Please list any caveats or problems as well.

• ONLY add hardware that you have TESTED. Don't add hardware just because you think it might work.
• Please add hardware into tables.
• This is for 10.6.0 builds only.

ALC888 [DSDT Mod + LegacyHDA] Ok! Snow Leopard 10A432 Ok (Installed from running 10.5.8) Chameleon 2.0 RC1 + Boot EFI 10.1 [1]	Yes Vanilla	No
IP35-E	Intel P35 ICH9	Intel Core 2 Duo E8300 CPU @ 3.4GHz Graphics: NVIDIA 8800GT 512MB (EFI string) Ethernet: Marvell 88E8056 (Edit Dev ID) Sound: Realtek ALC888 (DSDT.aml[2] + LegacyHDA.kext) SATA Controller: ICH9 non-AHCI (replace the fixed [3] by IOATAFAMILY.kext) Boot: Chameleon 2.0 RC2 + PC EFI 10.5 Other<Necessary>: FakeSMC.kext, NullCPUPowerManagement.kext,OpenHaltRestart Other<Unnecessary>: SMBios.plist,PlatformUUID.kext,SleepEnable.kext,P-State(expect VoodooPower)	Yes	No
IP35-PRO XE	Intel P35 ICH9R	Intel E8500 CPU 3.16 GHz Snow Leopard 10.6 Retail (Installed from running 10.5.7) using this guide [4]. Used modified DSDT.aml and slightly different steps towards the end used. Check my post in this thread for details. Install failed, but system up and working after reinstall of BSD.pkg from Leopard system. XFS NVIDIA 8400GS 512MB VGA (EFI string from OSX86tools). DVI and dual screen working. Ok! ICH9R SATA (Sata-AHCI in GPT) Ok! Dual LAN RTL-8110SC/8169SC Gigabit Ethernet Ok! ALC889 working OOB but speaker pops when playing sound sometimes. 2 outputs tested, line in untested. M-Audio Delta 44 - SL64 Envy24 drivers from [5] Reboot and shutdown working, OpenHaltRestart.kext used from the snowpro.zip I used in the guide. Sleep doesn't work and haven't tried to fix.

System reboots upon entering graphics mode with onboard video enabled. Installed with nawcom Mod CD and SL retail DVD (copied to USB drive) + myHack installer (chocolate kernel) Ethernet: Works briefly with nvenet driver (from Apple). Works slightly longer with nforcelan. Works perfectly with nforcelan on 10.6.5 with legacy kernel [8] and DisableTimerIRQ set to true in nforcelan Info.plist (may work under 10.6.0 and chocolate kernel with that change as well). SATA: Yes (AHCI mode, did not test all ports) Sound: Does not work, haven't tried too hard IDE: Not tested Sleep: No (won't wake up) Shutdown/restart: Yes, with kext from myHack	Yes (chocolate kernel)	No

GA-EP45-UD3P (rev. 1.6)	Intel P45 / ICH10R / Jmicron	I installed from Retail Copy of SnowLeopard using the Lifehacker Website guide at [68]. The guide has you copy and restore the OSX Install Disc to a USB drive and then install to it; a ZIP file that includes all the customized kexts, edited DSDT and other system files necessary to get this working. Also includes the RC2 version of Chameleon as its bootloader. Bootloader: PC EFI 10.1; bootable at first from a thumbdrive; but included installation package can also be installed to main HD to boot directly. Sound: Realtek ALC889A; fully working with customized kext installer (used when creating your installation USB Drive) LAN : works out of the box on board rev 1.6; previous versions of the board need the NIC that the site recommends you install. FIREWIRE: works out of the box Chipset ICH10R SATA: works OOB (again, courtesy of customized DSDT and kexts from lifehacker) Sleep/Shutdown/Restart function correctly; though at times, I find it "loses" the keyboard or mouse; requiring you to simply unplug and re-plug them in.

Follow the UD3R guide by d00m42 from the same link with these changes: Delete /Extra/DSDT.aml before first reboot (the DSDT.aml from V4 Pack is not for your mobo). SL will automatically detect all OOB compatible devices on the UD3L without a DSDT.aml. Make sure to apply "-v -x32" Chameleon flags on first reboot or your system will hang (don't need to apply these flags on subsequent reboots). Work in SL to patch DSDT. Follow instruction from V4 Pack to a tee on how to dump and patch DSDT as the code is compatible with UD3L. Do *not* use "-newHPET" flag to dump DSDT or SL will not detect some PCI devices that otherwise work OOB! To patch for ALC888, use exact content from code.txt in V4 Pack - pay attention to the comments in code.txt for ALC888 and edit accordingly. Replace /Extra/Extensions/LegacyHDA.kext with the LegacyHDA.kext from "4out2ins HDEF headphone" in V4 Pack's "DSDT Stuffs" directory. Reassemble DSDT and run "Kext Utility" from V4 Pack to apply all kext changes. To fix sleep/wake, tick “Restart automatically after a power failure.” box in Energy Saver. If your CPU supports 64-bit, add "arch=x86_64" to /Extra/com.apple.boot.plist. If you see "-x32", remove it. 64-bit mode runs stable on my setup. Easily upgraded to 10.6.2 with this quick guide. Remember to run Kext Utility to refresh kext cache after removing or replacing SleepEnabler.	Yes (Vanilla)	No

GA-X58A-UD5	Intel X58/ICH10	Installed retail DVD using Empire EFI 1.85 r2 to boot the DVD. (Required GraphicsEnabler=Y PciRoot=1 options to Empire EFI). Created a patched dsdt (following guide at [86]) using an ubuntu live CD which I then added to a Chameleon rc4 USB stick (also using GraphicsEnabler=Y PciRoot=1) -- the dsdt got rid of the "bios settings cleared on reboot" issue and enabled native power management. I'm using the vanilla 32-bit kernel (I'm using a D-Link DWA 556 card, which requires a 32-bit kernel). Update to 10.6.2 worked OOB. CPU - i7 950 at stock speed BIOS - F4 RAM - 3x2GB OCZ PC3-12800 Audio - Uses voodoohda kext and works (I did *not* modify my dsdt to attempt to enable sound). Ethernet - Worked with Empire EFI, have not tested with Chameleon. No additional kexts required. Firewire - Works OOB, used it successfully w/ the migration assistant Wireless - D-Link DWA 556 -- works OOB.
