More details on my MacOS Adventures

Well, it seems most things are working under MacOS X.

What is working:

  • Quartz Extreme and Core Image seem to be supported and working.
  • The audio works.
  • After some hacking of the Info.plist file I got my network card working. Info on this issue here.
  • My card reader works.
  • My pen drive works.
  • My PS/2 keyboard. Doesn’t work with the default PS/2 driver from Apple. The default driver crashes when only one PS/2 device is plugged in. Replaced with a driver (sorry, Extension) from here and all is well.

What is not working or not confirmed:

  • My PS/2 keyboard. Worked at the shop. Doesn’t work at the house. Weird. Using crappy USB keyboard in the interim. Fixed 10/29/07 10:13pm
  • My scanner. Haven’t tried it yet.

Software I am using:

  • MacOS X 10.5 Leopard (hax0red to run on PC)
  • Firefox 2.0.0.8 for browsing
  • FileZilla for ftp
  • CarbonCopyCloner for eventual cloning of my Install to a better drive
  • VLC for media (audio, at least)

To see what hardware I’m running, check out my Computers page.

I will be updating this post throughout the night as I play around and learn more. Oh, and if you don’t believe I’m running Leopard on THE-BEAST, here is some screenshotty goodness.
