HCL 10.4.8
From OSx86
Revision as of 11:06, 4 April 2007 by 66.169.136.3 (Talk)
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 10.4.8 builds only.

| Hardware Name (socket type) | Chipset | Notes | Fully working without patching |
|---|---|---|---|
| KN9 Ultra | Nvidia nForce MCP55-Ultra (nForce 570 Ultra) | Works: almost verything.
|
JaS 10.4.8 DVD for AMD SSE3 |
| AV8 | VIA K8T800 | Works with JaS; no onboard ethernet (Marvell), no onboard AC97 sound, USB intermittently fails except keyboard/mouse (reboot to fix) | Yes |
AsRock
| Hardware Name (socket type) | Chipset | Notes | Fully working without patching |
|---|---|---|---|
| 775TwinsHDTV | ULi 1573 | Installed using "-x -v" switches while booting from DVD (JaS 10.4.8). Video OnBoard has not been tested since an alternate PCIX card has been used (GeForce 7300LE 256MB) and worked fine. No LAN, No Sound & No USB. Maybe editing config files using "sudo" from terminal might help get LAN and Sound. However got LAN working on installing an extra Realtek 8139 PCI card. Wish I could have at least USB working. | No |
| 775Dual - VSTA | VIA PT880 Pro Ultra | Will not boot with private (original) seed, error "still waiting for boot device." Use reseed, make sure to check the VIA ULi SATA patch. Upon FIRST reboot, I installed Apple's latest USB patch, deleted extensions.mkext and extensions.kextcache, repaired disk permissions, THEN reboot. Otherwise, it will not boot again giving the "still waiting for boot device error." Network patched with Rhine II driver (pinxue). | No, patched on 10.4.8 (Semthex) reseed |
| 775i945GZ | i945G | Manually updated from 10.4.6 to 10.4.8 Semthex Kernel Beta 5, everything works fine, sometimes it takes a few minutes to get graphics back on after sleep mode. Mind the BIOS-settings! | No patching needed |
| ConRoe945G-DVi | Intel 945G | Everything but sound & network jack worked out of the box. See JAS install instruction for enabling the sound and the network jack. Started at 10.4.6 and updated using the Kiki Combo Updater. Got an error after installing the updater, but all was working after the reboot. NOTE: Display does not wake up after sleep (on-board video). Use 10.4.7 if it's an important feature for you.
Only the USB ports directly on the MB works. Not the ones that you connect to the pin connectors. |
Yes |
| ConRoe XFire-eSataII | Intel 945P / ICH7R | Everything works, only needs patching the sound and installing network drivers. | No |
| P4I65G | Intel 865G / Intel ICH5 | Ethernet works. USB works. Sounds works but sound enhancement must be turned off in itunes for high bit rate mp3 files to not cut out. SATA do not know yet have not tried. | Jas 10.4.6 SSE2/SSE3 + Apple 10.4.8 combo + eGWan Intel.SSE3 10.4.8 combo using DaemonES 8.8.1 |
| P4VT8 | VIA PT800 | Haven't played with this too much, but i couldn't get the sound to work (this mobo seems to have a strange feature wherby the onboard sound is disabled if another device with the same PCI class - ie sound card - is present, and i couldn't be bothered to yank out my SB Live!) .ViaRhine kext didn't like the onboard ethernet. USB is also a problem (although i haven't tried the developer drivers). With these problems didn't consider it worth too much investigation. Tried a 10.4.6 release too (forget which one), but this didn't boot at all. | No (10.4.8 JaS Reseed) |

Graphics Cards
Please specify if your card is AGP, PCI or PCI-E.
Also, place chip and board manufacturer in their respective column.
Note: For NVidia users, visit http://www.macvidia.org/ for updated drivers. For NVIDIA CARDS PLEASE SPECIFY IF THE CARD DOES QE/CI. Saying the macvidia drivers work but not specifying QE or CI is a bit misleading. If you are using the new kernel then download the Titan kext from http://omni.starchaser.org/titan/ to get QE/CI support
Note:These instructions may confuse noobs as they are a bit out of date. As far as i know, the MacVidia drivers do NOT support QE/CI AT ALL. You can use the kexts that come with your OSx86, or the ones from the 10.4.8 Intel update with your card. You may need to replace OpenGL.Framework too. Titan and Natit are merely enablers which make OSx86 think your VGA BIOS card is an EFI Firmware one (as on a real intel mac), and should load before the NVNVDA* kexts. An installer for Natit can be found at [2]. Check the forums for more info.
Note: For ATI users, visit http://omni.starchaser.org/ for experimental drivers.
Note: As of right now, all ATI cards with working kexts have severe slowdown issues with nForce3 chipsets. There is no fix for this, save getting editting out your card from the kext or using Quartz Debug to shut off Quartz Extreme. Edit: Just use agpgart to get no slowdowns at all on nForce3. Joblo10
