Asus A8js 10.6.8

1. Nawcom Legacy Kernel 10.8.0v2

 Do not install SleepEnabler and Apple HDA if you want to update to 10.6.8


have installed Snow Leopard 10.6.0 with the 10.6.1-10.6.2 Hazard distro, I chose the 10.2.0 Legacy Kernel, AtherosFix, IOATAFamily Fix, AppleIntelPIIXATA Fix and the AMD Patch. Then I installed the Combo Update 10.6.1-10.6.8, replaced the Legacy Kernel 10.2.0 with the Nawcom Legacy Kernel 10.8.0v2 and restart. And all works great, no Kernelpanics or other issues.


Update to 10.6.8 with Combo updater from [10], at the end, don't press restart,

• install legacy_kernel-10.8.0.v2.pkg from http://blog.nawcom.com/legacy_kernel-10.6.8.v2.pkg.zip (more info about this kernel: [11])
• to prevent "PCI Configuration Begin" error, install kexts from here [12] with kext wizard from here [13].

After install all update, delete AppleACPIPlatform.kext before reinstall it from SnowLeo installer pendrive with ACPIThermal package. Open the pendrive in Finder, click "Go" menu "Go to folder…" item, write "System", browse and install the package System/Installation/Packages/notebook/ACPIThermal.pkg

Apps uninstaller OS X

Unlike Windows or Linux the automatically installed applications, can be uninstalled. Unless they are compiled in the case of Linux.

 But in OS X, it does not. There is no installer or apt-get or yum, or something similar.
And to remove an installed application, is not so easy. You must delete the application, system files and records used by application and user files from the application itself.


Fortunately there are applications made ​​by developers who do not belong to Apple, and that are free. And I hereby present AppCleaner from FreeMacSoft.


AppCleaner is a small application which allows you to thoroughly uninstall unwanted apps.

Installing an application distributes many files throughout your System using space of your Hard Drive unnecessarily.

AppCleaner finds all these small files and safely deletes them.

Simply drop an application onto the AppCleaner window. It will find for the related files and you can delete them by clicking the delete button.

Requirements: Mac OS X 10.4+

Download:

• Version 2.1.0 - Mac OS X 10.6.6+
• Version 1.2.2 - Mac OS X 10.4+

Mac OS X 10.6.8 on EeePC 1000h

After several, but even huge attempts. Finally I managed to successfully install Mac OS X 10.6.8 on EeePC 1000h.

Just got it to work with a clean installation. I installed 10.6.3, then updated directly to 10.6.7 without kernel hack / Pacht. Only in 10.6.8 is that I had to install the Kernel Hack.

As a result, everything works 100%. Sound, Wifi, FN keys on the keyboard, Apple Mac Store.

The only problem is that is slow in terms of work, even with maximum RAM, 2GB. Not so fast compared to Linux or Windows XP. But it's faster than Windows Vista. :-)

When comparing the speed  WIndows 7 and Mac OS X 10.6.8. The result is the same.

 EeePC: 1000h with Mac OS X 10.6.8 Snow Leopard

Unfortunately I will not explain how I did. I will create a tutorial and explain the new post. Because, a simply mistake and you need to do it again.  Unless you always make a backup of Kext and again by hand.
