OK - so you did finally get Lion running. But is lion cpu and openGl performance slow or is it as snappy as Snow Leopard. Thanks, again.

Thanks - So you installed EDP 2.2 on Snow Leopard 10.6.3. Right ?

Thanks - can you provide a list of kexts under extras and a link to the other keyboard kext.

Can anyone running 10.7.2 Lion please post their benchmark from Xbench or GeekBench. A list of installed kexts in extra and any kexts removed from System folder would also help. Thanks in advance.

AHCI = yes

Turning off dynamic accel helps about 5-10%. Just finished installing 10.6.3 with minimum kexts (FakeSMC, NullCPUPowerManagement, TSCsync). Runs about 3x faster (i.e., normal). Removing NullCpuPower causes slow down on 10.6.3 again. On 10.7.2 still can't get any improvement w same kexts (with or without NullCPUPowerManagement). Trying to isolate the problem but it may be a kext in the system that requires removal (tried removing AppleGraphicsControl.kext with no improvement). cheers

Tried turning off one core and system is faster more responsive. CPU core speed also reported at 1.99 ghz vs 1.8 ghz w both cores. So likely a problem voodoo TSC sync kext.

Thanks - but no difference in performance with A17. Can anyone with D630 Intel graphics post their Xbench numbers for comparison. Also tried booting in 64 bit mode (unstable but not any faster).

I'm out of ideas. Running 10.7.2 on D630 w Intel GMA graphics. Unresponsive and generally slow (about 1/3 the speed of my mac mini w similar specs). Tried standard boot pack for Lion and also added EDP2.2. Also tried booting w just faksmc.kext. BIOS is A13. XBench scores attached. Suggestions appreciated
