Permission are being repaired as I type this, how do I rebuild catches? I am still a newbie after all

Yes it was a clean install, there were a bunch of fakesmcs where they didn't belong so I deleted them, and I still sometimes get the same panic on boot. System seems to be much more stable once I get into snow leopard though.

Yes I did, could I have chosen a wrong kext during configuration?

Hey everyone I managed to get everything working on my D630 with 10.6.8 but if I try to boot normally it just hangs at the apple logo, if I boot with -v it gets into snow leopard about 1/3 of the time. The rest or the time I'm hit with the kernel panic attached below. Also when I do make it into snow leopard it only runs for about 10 minutes and then completely freezes. So close and yet so far any help would be appreciated greatly, thanks!

Thanks for the help, with that guide I am now able to sign into the mac app store but now when I go to purchase lion the app store tells me "This version of Mac OS X 10.7 cannot be installed on this computer." I do have a core 2 duo so now I'm completely stumped. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

After much luck my card is working in 10.6.7. To get it to work I just did a fresh install of Snow Leopard and this time it decided to work. But now when I go to sign into the mac app store it tells me that my computer could not be verified, where did I go wrong? My last install worked fine in the app store. I would like to install Lion on here eventually so fixing this issue is pretty important. Also I'd really like to get osx to fully recgonize my processor. To answer your question freedomrock the high-res dsdt will only work for you if your display supports 1440x900.

Hey all! I've managed to get myself all the way from a successful install of 10.6 to10.6.7, the only problem is that when I did the combo update from 10.6.3 to 10.6.7 my wireless went down the drain. I can still hook up an ethernet cable and get online but when I highlight it at the top of the page it says there is no airport card installed. I'm running on intel x3100 graphics ay 1440x900 thanks to simeonoff's custom dsdt with a 2ghz core 2 duo. I went into the bios and it said I was running on dell wireless so I'm fairly certain it isn't the dreaded intel card. Also OSX recgonizes my processor as a 1.81ghz core 2 duo, am I actually losing performance there or is it just a cosmetic thing? Thanks!
