Question: Have you installed EDP or are you just using the bootpack ? - if booting takes a long time i can image its because your kernel cache havent been generated

Awesome work guys

Hi, EDP (like many other applications uses direct connection to download latest sources) - so far there is not obvious solution to this other than to see if you can fix your internet...

Found this on facebook.. just had to repost SOCIALISM You have 2 cows. You give one to your neighbour COMMUNISM You have 2 cows. The State takes both and gives you some milk FASCISM You have 2 cows. The State takes both and sells you some milk NAZISM You have 2 cows. The State takes both and shoots you BUREAUCRATISM You have 2 cows. The State takes both, shoots one, milks the other, and then throws the milk away TRADITIONAL CAPITALISM You have two cows. You sell one and buy a bull. Your herd multiplies, and the economy grows. You sell them and retire on the income ROYAL BANK OF SCOTLAND (VENTURE) CAPITALISM You have two cows. You sell three of them to your publicly listed company, using letters of credit opened by your brother-in-law at the bank, then execute a debt/equity swap with an associated general offer so that you get all four cows back, with a tax exemption for five cows. The milk rights of the six cows are transferred via an intermediary to a Cayman Island Company secretly owned by the majority shareholder who sells the rights to all seven cows back to your listed company. The annual report says the company owns eight cows, with an option on one more. You sell one cow to buy a new president of the United States , leaving you with nine cows. No balance sheet provided with the release. The public then buys your bull. SURREALISM You have two giraffes. The government requires you to take harmonica lessons. AN AMERICAN CORPORATION You have two cows. You sell one, and force the other to produce the milk of four cows. Later, you hire a consultant to analyse why the cow has dropped dead. A GREEK CORPORATION You have two cows. You borrow lots of euros to build barns, milking sheds, hay stores, feed sheds, dairies, cold stores, abattoir, cheese unit and packing sheds. You still only have two cows. A FRENCH CORPORATION You have two cows. You go on strike, organise a riot, and block the roads, because you want three cows. A JAPANESE CORPORATION You have two cows. You redesign them so they are one-tenth the size of an ordinary cow and produce twenty times the milk. You then create a clever cow cartoon image called a Cowkimona and market it worldwide. AN ITALIAN CORPORATION You have two cows, but you don't know where they are. You decide to have lunch. A SWISS CORPORATION You have 5000 cows. None of them belong to you. You charge the owners for storing them. A CHINESE CORPORATION You have two cows. You have 300 people milking them. You claim that you have full employment, and high bovine productivity. You arrest the newsman who reported the real situation. AN INDIAN CORPORATION You have two cows. You worship them. A BRITISH CORPORATION You have two cows. Both are mad. AN IRAQI CORPORATION Everyone thinks you have lots of cows. You tell them that you have none. No-one believes you, so they bomb the ** out of you and invade your country. You still have no cows, but at least you are now a Democracy. AN AUSTRALIAN CORPORATION You have two cows. Business seems pretty good. You close the office and go for a few beers to celebrate. A NEW ZEALAND CORPORATION You have two cows. The one on the left looks very attractive...

One of the nicest pieces of software i have seen around is the AirVideo server - it allows you to stream most video content from your "server" to any I-device/Android. .. but what if you want to stream it to say a Windows or Mac machine ? I will try here to collect some of the great resources that i found. Server and Ipad/Iphone apps: http://www.inmethod.com/air-video/index.html Linux server: https://github.com/rubiojr/airvideo-server-ui and another https://launchpad.net/~rubiojr/+archive/airvideo Qnap server: http://forum.qnap.com/viewforum.php?f=234 Windows: The orginal site that i found it on was in japanese - bit hard to read: http://blogs.yahoo.co.jp/knight2kjp/ If anyone have a better link for the above please share: Mirror: AirVideoClient_win32_20121114.zip Very basic interface but gets the job done. Mac version: Original link: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/6713110/MacAirVideoClient/Site/Home.html Mirror: Mac AirVideo Client.zip Awesome interface - very advanced stuff but generally works really good.

You should be able to get up to SL .. Check if you can upgrade CPU...

hmm.. what model did you choose last time ?.. because i dont see your model om the compat. list http://argo.osxlatitude.com/edp/compatibility/

no.. try and use what you have.. if i were you.. and if your machine supports it.. i would move to Lion

I mean, download the EDP installer.dmg and install EDP again. Also, when you want to launch EDP, use edptool.command in /Extra

Hi, Sorry to hear that you are having problems. Please reinstall EDP - i made some changes that should fix the launch problems of EDP tool.

Hey, Please add me on skype: Lbollerup and lets have a look at it

Its in EDP allready

While this info is not for the average user - it might help a bit to shed some light on how model info is stored in EDP. There is certain steps you need to follow to add a new model to EDP (and understand) 1. Create model folder 2. Add the model build data to the modelinfo file 3. Commit to SVN, Request BPG update and update mysql Step 1) - Creating a model folder The model folder contains all the raw data (dsdt, ssdt, plists, kexts etc.) for the specific model, a typical layout looks like this The Modelname is defined by __ (eg. Dell_Latitude_D430) - you have to use the exact structure with 3 _ to make sure BPG picks it up right <model name> - Common (Contains common plists, chameleon, kernel, dsdt and ssdt used under all OS) Extensions (Contains common kexts used under all OS) - sl Extensions - lion Extensions - ml Extensions Basically, the OS folders overwrites the common folders, meaning, if you have a certain kexts, plist or dsdt that is needed for that OS only, it will overwrite anything you have under common .. smart, huh? The above folder structure should be created under "model-data" in the SVN server Step 2) - Add the model build data to the modelinfo file The modelinfo is essentially a multidim. php array that acts as a configuration file for the models under that brand and type. Example: modelinfo.samsung.laptop.inc.php holds information about Samsung laptops. Looking inside the file you will find a structure like this: Note: We should allways try and use as many of the "common" kexts as we can, since it makes maintenance easier - also, dont add a any kexts to the AudioDB if they just work for that model - eg. a patched AppleHDA might as well go in the model-data folder instead. array( name => "Samsung_np_900x3c", (model name from step 1) desc => "Samsung NP900 X3C", (Full name of the model) nullcpu => "no", (Do you need NullCPUManagement.kext?) sleepEnabler => "no", (Do you need sleepenabler.kext for sleep?) ps2pack => "9", (This is an ID from ps2db.inc.php, count starting by 0) emulatedST => "no", (Do you want to use emulated speedstep aka voodoopstate) tscsync => "no", (Do you need VoodooTSCSync.kext ?) batteryKext => "3", (This is an ID from batterydb.inc.php, count starting by 0, "no" for nothing loadIOATAFamily => "no", (Do you need to load IOAtaFamily.kext ?) loadNatit => "no", (Do you need natit.kext ?) useACPIfix => "yes", (Do you want to load a AppleACPIPlatform.kext from 10.6.7 ?) patchCPU => "yes", (Do you want on-the-fly patching of AppleIntelPowerManagement.kext ?) patchAHCIml => "no", (Patches IOAHCIBlockStorage on systems that get "Waiting for root device") ethernet => "8", (This is an ID from ethernetdb.inc.php, count starting by 0, "no" for nothing wifikext => "0", (This is an ID from wifidb.inc.php, count starting by 0, "no" for nothing audiopack => "2", (This is an ID from audiodb.inc.php, count starting by 0, "no" for nothing) supports_sl => "no", (Does this model support Snow Leopard ?) supports_lion => "yes", (Does this model support Lion ?) supports_ml => "yes", (Does this mode support Mountain Lion ?) customCham => "no", (Have you bundled a different version of chameleon ?) customKernel => "no" (Have you bundled a custom kernel ?) ), You will need to copy/paste an existing model to the BOTTOM of the file but before the last ); ?> 3) Commit to SVN, Request BPG update and update mysql The hard part is now done, all you have to do now is: 1. Commit your new model to SVN 2. Contact Leon and have him update BPG (Boot Pack Generator) 3. Talk to mick have the model compat. db updated

Hi, While we offcourse run a OSX site here - one have to test Windows 8 also In this case i am running Windows 8 on my Dell Latitude e6230 wich comes with a DW5550 mobile broadband card. However, none of dells standard drivers wanted to install - classic So, i extracted the drivers and did a manual install. I have attached the drivers here... The installation is very basic, just go into Device manager, select the DW5550 card, update the driver and select the one from the package below. Enjoy! Files: Drivers for DW5550.rar Dell WWAN 5540.rar Edit June 2015: As reported by former member Kaiser, the drivers/installer available on the DELL site won't run on a E7440 running Win8.1, complaining that this card isn't supported on the machine, but using the above drivers, the card can be installed through Device Manager. The problem after that is the DELL Mobile Broadband Manager then says that "the mobile broadband device is not found" despite showing correctly in Device Manager. To solve this, follow the instructions posted here: https://www.bios-mods.com/forum/Thread-Need-help-with-E6410?pid=68254#pid68254 and then reinstall the DELL drivers which will then pass the authorization check.

.. and you are 100% sure its the same model ?..

And would you mind posting your HW also.. eg graphic card, cpu type etc. Thank you

Hey, Can you zip your /Extra and add it here.. i want to run a compare against latest EDP

wtf.. do you have a bootable usb pen ?.. like a myhack pen with a bootpack on ?

1. Go into bios and change your harddisk mode to ACHI 2. Now do the install 3. Once your are done installing, boot from the pen again, this time select your harddisk 4. Once inside OSX, download and install OSX... Enjoy

in that case its most likely chameleon.. in /Extra .. remove FileNVram.dylib and install this www.osxlatitude.com/files/Chamleon.pkg notice: EDP will automaticly update your chameleon when you do a build.. so dont do a new build just yet....

what graphics card do you have ? if you still have the old EDP, try and copy the dsdt.aml from that to /Extra

try and boot with -v -x GraphicsEnabler=no

ok, lots of changes have happend since then that could cause this.. it could be anything from the chameleon to the to changes in the model package. Can you please try and do a new build ? .. just to make sure you have the latest model data.

what EDP version were you on before you updated to the latest ?

sorry.. completely missed this one.. what OS are you on ?
