VoodooTSCSync for Snow Leopard -- New Release

<< < (5/6) > >>

Hello,

I have a Dell E1505 (6400) with a Core Duo processor.  I have Snow Leopard 10.6.4 installed and have the VoodooTSCSync kext installed.  I can consistently get a Kernel Panic when I start Activity Monitor or even the "top" utility in a terminal shell.  I would post a Kernel Panic backtrace log here.  However, I am not seeing any Kernel Panic logs in /Library/Logs/.  There is no CrashReporter/ or DiagnosticReports/ directory in that directory.  Am I looking in the wrong place? 


Interestingly enough, under my previous Snow Leopard installation (I had to reinstall due to problems when setting up triple-booting), I could (sometimes) start Activity Monitor without causing a Kernel Panic. 

Thanks!

Attached is an image of the kernel panic backtrace I encounter every time I attempt to start the Activity Monitor application on my Dell E1505 running Snow Leopard 10.6.4 with the VoodooTSCSync kext loaded.  I hope this information is useful to anyone who might be interested in figuring out why this kernel panic is occurring.  Thanks.

Screenshot reuploaded due to excessive size. Went from ~9MB to ~300kb - please think about this before uploading images, thanks.

Why is this only for Core 2 Duo?  The code looks very generic.  Why can't it be used on other processors (like AMD)?

It probably can, as long as the kernel function exists in the modded kernel.. But i dont' have any amds that needed it

Hi cosmo1t,
fumoboy007 made some tweaking to prevent EXC_I386_DIV crashes (amd). If interested u can get in touch with him over here http://osx86.co/f36/amd-dual-core-optimizer-for-snow-leopard-t6820/
