Hi, Let me try and sum this one up. Right now we dont have any D620 testers, so thats why the whole D620 is a bit of a blind spot, also, in 1.5, we have seperated the models a bit more (as you properly have noticed) As for the OSvkern.. and IONe.. those are being updated in RC5 as we speak. Can you please attach the dsdt.aml that you are using and a bit of info about ur machine.. eg. D620-intel or D620-nvidia ? Could you please add

Hey, Creds goes to Joe for suggesting this. Check it out... http://www.r2x2.com/users/lsb/weblog/ef00c/Better_cooling_for_Dell_Latitude_D420D430_laptops.html I have to admit that i am very pleased with the result

Load up a win7 installation dvd and run a memory test...

Ur welcome mate.. and welcome to osxlatitude.com

1. Use unetbootin from windows to create a boot able usb _freedos_ pen 2. download the bios update and put it on then 3. stick the pen in the dell, boot on it, choose fail save boot 4. type: c: [enter] 5. "filename of update".exe [enter] there you go.. 5 mins. work and still time left to finish your beer

Sinjon, could you upgrade your bios to the latest version ? Heating, did you choose the "power package" durring build ? Another bug seems to be related to speedstep.. when you unplug the power cord and replug it, it steps down in speed.. but not back up....

.. and thats the reason why we dont wanna push it out to our users just yet .. KP is like a hangover from hell.. i dont like any of them.

yep.. i know, and that might be the future if it gets accepted into the voodooprojects...

ok.. so the old problem still exists.. crap.. i had hoped that the slice bootloader would fix that...

less KP .. and it fixes reboot problem on some machines...

Hi, I can strong recommend to upgrade to the latest Chameleon. Chameleon v2.0-RC5 r665.pkg.zip

I have the same problem, mirror completely fucks up.. Have you tested with the new slice bootloader ?

Hi, While i agree in the term, that if it aint broken, dont fix it, however, with our EDP packages its offten the other way around, "if it can work better, do it!" When it comes to wireless cards, i suggest to take one of those that can be rebranded: http://www.osxlatitude.com/groups/d4xosx/wiki/98753/Rebranding_Broadcom_80211abgn_Cards_as_Airport.html

Works like a charm, i have updated RC4 with it and verified it on both D420 and D430's.. good work.. Can you add the cosmetic things also ?

thats a nice one.. update the wiki

nice.. but i think it could be cleaned up a bit with some manual work...

can you boot without a pc card inserted ??

btw guys.. if you make some nice onces, do this: 1. Goto the wiki page 2. Download the zip file and add the new image 3. Upload the new zip and replace the one on the page 4. Upload the image to the wiki also like the others there That way we make it easy for people to use..

i'm also testing it.. think we have a winner .. so faar i havent seen any bugs, it do have the same bug as the voodoo one with not being able to work with istat, but again, i havet really seen any that can... can some please test this one so we know if we can add it to 1.5
