AIX 5.1 (64-bit kernel mode) + JVM 1.3.1 (32-bit)?

We need to run Oracle 9.2 and WebLogic 7.0 on the same box running AIX
5.1. Since Oracle 9.2 is only available as a 64-bit app, we need to
run AIX 5.1 in 64-bit kernel mode.
IBM has released both a 32-bit and 64-bit JVM 1.3.1. Clearly, they
will run in the respective kernel modes, however, has anyone tried
running JVM 1.3.1 (32-bit) in AIX 5.1 (64-bit kernel mode)?? If yes,
what version (java -version printout) of JVM 1.3.1 and WebLogic did
you use?
We need to use the 32-bit JVM because WebLogic 7.0 contains some
32-bit libraries (e.g. Oracle JDriver).
Would apprecite any stories regarding success/failure.

I've tried and have not found a sucessful combination. I tried the JDK bundled
with 6.1sp2 as well as 1.3.1.10 and 1.3.1.11
sorry no help,

How do I find wether Solaris 8 is running in 32 bit or 64 bit kernel mode

I have some questions
1)Ho do I know wether solaris 8 is running in 32 bit kernel mode or 64 bit kernel mode.
2)Is there any way that we can switch between 32 bit and 64 bit without reinstalling the OS.?
3)Does the SunLink OSI 8.1.1 work with solaris 8(32 bit kernel mode) without any patch. If any patch required , can you tell me the patch that i need to install.
Thanking in anticipation

Hi,
To find out wheter 32 or 63-bit mode
# /usr/bin/isainfo -kv
Now, switching between modes
32-bit mode
# eeprom boot-file=kernel/unix
64-bit mode
# eeprom boot-file=kernel/sparcv9/unix
or OK prompt,
32-bits mode
boot kernel/unix
64-bit mode
boot kernel/sparcv9/unix
or even,
32-bit mode
setenv boot-file kernel/unix
64-bit-mode
setenv boot-file kernel/sparcv9/unix

32 bit and 64 bit kernel modes

Just curious to know if users experienced the exact same problem in both these modes.

1. Fresh install of OSX 10.6 running in both 32-bit and 64-bit kernel modes.
How did you get your data back onto the fresh install? If you used Migration Assistant, you probably imported the problem (likely caused by some corrupt settings file somewhere) right back into your fresh install.
OTOH, if it happens on a clean system, you may have some kind of hardware issue, though I can't imagine what kind of hardware issue would only affect QuickLook! Perhaps zap your PRAM? (Restart and hold command-option-P-R until you hear a second startup chime.)
2. Deleting ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.QuickLookDaemon.plist .
Good thought. You may also want to try trashing:
/System/Library/LaunchAgents/com.apple.quicklook.plist
3. Repairing partitions from both Disk Utility and Install DVD.
Do you mean repair permissions? If so, you shouldn't repair permissions while booted from the install disk. You should always do this using the copy of Disk Utility on your hard drive, while booted from your hard drive as you normally would be.
OTOH, repairing the hard drive can only be done on the boot drive while booted from the install disk.
4. Using the following applications to run all tasks: MainMenu & OnyX.
What tasks? Regardless, this is probably unnecessary:
[Five Mac Maintenance Myths|http://www.macworld.com/article/133684/2008/06/maintenance_intro.html]
5. Uninstalling Perian and reinstalling.
Is QuickLook only failing on videos, or is it failing for all types of files? Did you make sure you've got the latest version of Perian?

Apple USB Modem Not Supported in Snow Leopard Running 64-bit Kernel Mode

Has anyone been able to get the Apple USB Modem to work with Snow Leopard (SL) when running SL in 64-bit kernel mode? I get an error saying hardware not supported.

I would suggest you take this question up in the MacBook Pro forum or perhaps the Snow Leopard forum. This forum is for question about older, Pre-G3 Apple hardware and so not the forum where you'll be most likely to get a quick and applicable response.
Regards.

I cannot get my Mac Pro (Original) MacPro1,1 to boot with the 64 Bit kernel in 10.6.8

I cannot get my Mac Pro (Original) MacPro1,1 to boot with the 64 Bit kernel in 10.6.8 (this is a 2 x 3Dual-Core Intel Xeon machine).
Firmware = MP11.005C.B08 (EFI 1.2) 1.7f10 (SMC 1.1)
Will it not run the 64 bit kernel?
Is there a firmware upgrade to allow this?
Should I bother?
It won't boot with the Key 6 & 4 method.
or using Terminal command;
sudo systemsetup -setkernelbootarchitecture x86_64
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance...
Eric

Because it can't and doesn't have a 64-bit supported firmware.
UEFI (EFI64) was not finalized and adopted until very late 2007 and introduced in 2008, by Apple, Intel, other members of EFI Group and Unified EFI. The Mac Pro Mid-2010 was the first time though that 64-bit mode was the default.
Does it matter? not really. you can't install 48GB RAM anyway, while there are some improvements from 64-bit kernal.
Also can't boot Windows 7 64-bit DVD to install properly. But you can run Windows 64-bit kernel because you have a 64-bit Xeon.

64 bit kernel cabable iMac won't boot in 64 bit kernel when prompted in Mountain Lion.

Hey guys. I am using a 24" iMac from the March 2009 line. I am aware that this Mac is capable of running in 64 bit kernel mode, but the default is 32. When Snow Leopard hit, I was able to boot in 64bit mode with the appropriate prompt in the terminal and also via the 6 and 4 keys at startup. I could also verify this in the system profiler under software.
In mountain Lion, this porion of the profil is missing under software and I am unable to verify that it is running in 64 bit kernel. I used a 3rd party app to determine the kernel and it still says that I am runnin in 32bit kernel. Now either I am, by default running 64bit and the ap is wrong, or there is something that I am missing here. I am attaching a photo of the app I used. Thanks for any help any of you may provide.

I'd doubt the 3rd party App.
There is no 32 bit kernel in Mountain Lion.
You can check in Activity Monitor.

Mac Pro Classic, Snow Leopard, and 64 bit kernel

Hello, and thanks in advance for your thoughts and your help. A question was brought up on the macrumors forums about the shortcomings of the 2006 mac pro. Basically someone said that he would not get a used 2006 mac pro because "it can't boot into Leopard in 64-bit." I asked him what he meant and he said that he didn't think it was "true" 64 bit because in his system info it says "64 bit kernel and extensions - no". I poked around a little bit and found a good article:
http://www.appleinsider.com/articles/08/10/28/roadto_mac_os_x_snow_leopard_64_bit_to_thekernel.html
detailing that Leopard runs on a 32 bit kernel, mainly because every extension must be 64 bit in order to run on a 64 bit kernel, and that Leopard can run 64 bit applications even though it runs on a 32 bit kernel. The article states that Snow Leopard will be the first operating system on a 64 bit kernel.
Now, my question. Since my Mac Pro runs on 32 bit EFI instead of the new EFI 64, will I be able to have a similar 64 bit Snow Leopard experience? Will my EFI on my antique mac pro really limit the 64 bit Snow Leopard experience? Will my aluminum macbook be able to "do" more with snow leopard than my mac pro? and lastly, I am currently running the Radeon 4870 in my mac pro, since the guys at ATI snuck the 32 bit EFI onto the card as well as the 64 bit EFI, somehow. I wonder what's going to happen with all this when Snow Leopard drops.

I think part of the confusion is that the original Mac Pro does not enable 64 bit under Boot Camp. If you look at:
http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/mac_pro/stats/mac-pro-quad-2.66-specs.html
The original Mac Pro is 64 bit in every way. Regular Leopard is not in the Finder. So there is still a chance you may get 64 bit processing on Snow Leopard even with the original Mac Pro.
From the above link:
Each of two Xeon 5150 "Woodcrest" Dual-Core processors have two independent processor "cores" with 4 MB of level 2 cache per processor. It also features a 128-bit SSE vector engine, 64-bit data paths and registers. Also offered, via custom configuration, were two 2 GHz Dual Core Xeon 5130 processors for US$300 less, two 3 GHz Dual Core Xeon 5160 processors for US$800 more, and starting April 4, 2007, two 3 GHz Quad Core Xeon X5365 (Clovertown) processors for US$1500 more.
I would not rely on AppleInsider as a resource. It is a rumor site.

Can't enable 64bit kernel mode on my MBP

I typed the command "system_profiler SPHardwareDataType | grep "Model Identifier" | cut -d: -f2" and it shown that my mbp is MacBookPro3,1 and then I typed "ioreg -l -p IODeviceTree | grep firmware-abi", the terminal said that is " | | "firmware-abi" = <"NO". and I checked the Extensions, there are also many NOs on that list, What is that problem? I know that EFI-64 could enable 64bit Snow Leopard but how come my mbp can't?
Please help me, thank you!

A 64-bit chip and 64-bit EFI do not guarantee running the 64-bit kernel. In fact very few Macs can run the kernel. My four month old Mac mini cannot boot into 64-bit. Apple to date has disabled the 64-bit kernel for all MacBooks and the Mac mini.
This is the rule
A 32-bit processor can only run 32-bit stuff.
A 64-bit processor can run 32-bit and 64-bit stuff.
(stuff can be system, kernel, applications, drivers, etc)
So you need a 64-bit processor to run 64-bit anything
On a 64-bit processor:
A 32-bit Kernel can run both 32 and 64 bit applications.
A 64-bit Kernel can run both 32 and 64 bit applications.
A 32-bit Kernel can load only 32-bit kexts (kernel extensions).
A 64-bit Kernel can load only 64-bit kexts (kernel extensions).

"Unexpected Kernel Mode Trap (Wdf01000.sys)" and a Blue Screen appearing frequently on my Windows 8.1 (64-bit) laptop and laptop restarting all of a sudden.

Hi I am Arka Dey. I am using a

The problem is while I am using my laptop, a
blue screen suddenly appears and it says, " Your PC has run into a problem and needs to be restarted." Along with it there is
written the following message: " You can later search for this online - Unexpected Kernel Mode Trap (Wdf01000.sys)".
After displaying this for a few seconds in the blue screen mode, my
laptop automatically restarts. This has been happening for sometime for the past few weeks. I do not understand the meaning of the message displayed in the blue screen and nor do I know the reason behind its occurrence. Please help me with

Hi roberto-
Yes, its a shame. I have also contacted lenovo support hoping that they can sort out this problem. However, first response from them was 'contact your internet service provider since internet connectivity goes down'! :-/ I am hoping I have been able to get through to them now at least about where the problem lies. I wonder if anyone has tried using the laptop with the same broadcom wireless adapter with some other version of OS (linux, windows 7 etc.) and whether they still face the same problem. I haven't tried that yet. If this is just an OS / driver issue I hope someone somewhere is working on a fix! If not, I guess the only other solution would be to get an external USB wifi adapter but that is not something one would want to do when you buy a brand new Lenovo laptop. This was a big let down for me.

I want to ugrade my MacBook's memory. Do I need a 64-bit kernel?

I have a model MB467LL/A MacBook5,1 and I want to upgrade its memory to 8Gb and above. Do I need a 64-bit kernel to use this amount of memory? How can I upgrade my model to 64-bit kernel? I know my MacBook's EFI is capable of running in 64-bit mode and I also know that this mode is disabled. How can I enable it?

Not all brands are compatible. That's why I told you to buy memory at OWC or Crucial > http://www.macsales.com Crucial sells cheaper memory > http://www.crucial.com

Can I run 32-bit kernel on OS X Yosemite?

Can I run 32-bit kernel on OS X Yosemite?

Not sure if you are still having an issue, but I've encountered similar problems with more recent OS'. I am NOT AN EXPERT HERE so I want to make that clear. I may not be 100% correct in my understanding.
To my understanding, OS X Lion was the last OS that you can run 32-bit kernels on, but most people seem to prefer Snow Leopard for this task due to better legacy support and how 10.6.8 Snow Leopard is an extremely reliable OS. For Mountain Lion and later, you more or less run the compatibility mode that is the same context as you can do from Windows 8.1. I've had limited success here. I have a copy of OS X Snow Leopard so I can run at 32-bit installed on my hard drive and run OLD apps that do not like Yosemite. As I am running it through VMWare Fusion 7, I can't tell you if you can run Snow Leopard in 32 bit mode via a secondary install or not (I think it depends on your hardware and if your hardware shipped with Mountain Lion or later, then this is NOT possible even if booting through a 32 bit-capable OS...I COULD BE WRONG!)
One other option is if you have an old copy of Windows XP or something, you can do a 32 bit install through a virtual machine and update the firmware through the VM (obviously you would need drivers to allow it to recognize USB or Firewire or etc. devices to update the FW of a hardware component, which Parallels and Fusion are both capable of and do very well...but they are paid (free trial for both). Oracle has a VM which is free, but I do not know much about its functionality.) There are even certain software apps made to run older programs on OS X reliably...I do not know if they would be of benefit in your case or not.
Obviously that is a little bit of a pain but truth be told, I find that both Apple and Microsoft OS' have limitations when attempting to run older programs on newer OS. Old programs don't tend to run well on Yosemite or Windows 8.1, despite the fact that the operating systems themselves are reasonably reliable. I don't blame them as it seems this is just something that is very difficult to do reliably in a world where new technology is favored over legacy support. So that is why I have a 32-bit capable version of both OS X and Windows in addition to the current respective 8.1 and 10.10.2.
If this is a one-time deal and you do not think you will need to do the same thing down the road, you could skip all of the above and just borrow a computer from a friend with a 32-bit OS, or even go to a Fedex Kinkos or something and see if they will let you run the application from there. A lot of Mac users do have Parallels or Fusion on their Mac so someone local might be able to help you out. As Snow Leopard was the last OS to incorporate certain hardware support, it is still used extensively (some estimate it is used on around 1/4 of all Macs).

Compiling STREAM module for 64-bit kernel

Hi,
I am trying to compile a STREAM module for Solaris. The results I get when I execute "isalist" and "isainfo -kv" are:
-"sparcv9+vis sparcv9 sparcv8plus+vis sparcv8plus sparcv8 sparcv8-fsmuld sparcv7 sparc"
-"64-bit sparcv9 kernel modules"
The host is a Ultra5_10 with SunOS 5.7 sun4u sparc.
First I tried to compile the module with gcc 2.8.1 but altough the compilation apparentelly finisihed OK I did not get to load the module. Later I read that, gcc so far does not generate binaries for 64-bit sparc.
So I installed the Sun WorkShop 5 environment (try version) and I tried to compile my sources with the following line:"cc -D_KERNEL -xarch=v9 -xcode=abs32 -xregs=no%appl -x03 -I. -I/usr/include -c mymodule.c"
but I get a huge list of errors such as:
"/usr/include/sys/thread.h/, line73:warning: volatile is a keyworkd in
ANSI C"
"/usr/include/sys/thread.h/, line 73:sintax error before or at:volatile"
so if I compile adding the directire "-D_ASM" to the previous line, the list of errors descreases to 2 lines:
"/usr/include/sys/kstat.h, line 52: sintax error before or at: hrtime_t"
"/usr/include/sys/kstat.h, line 52: cannot recover from previous errors".
I have also tried adding directives such as: -D_LP64 -D__sparcv9 -D_POSIX_C_SOURCE, -D_XOPEN_SOURCE but I do not get to compile it successfully.
Could someone be so kind to give me a clue of what I am doing wrong, and what should I do in order to compile it??.
The header files I have included right now in my ".c" are:
#include <sys/stream.h>
#include <sys/conf.h>
#include <sys/modctl.h>
#include <sys/kmem.h>
#include <sys/cmn_err.h>
#include <sys/ddi.h>
#include <sys/sunddi.h>
If I do not add the directives -I. -I/usr/include to the compile line above I get the following error:
"/usr/include/sys/modctl.h, line 185: major, argument mismatch"
"/usr/include/sys/cred.h, line 51: sintax error before or at: uint_t"
But this is because the environment it is taken the /usr/ucbinclude as default include path instead of the "/usr/include". �which one should I consider?.
Thank in advance for your support.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
(could you please send to me the answeres to this e-mail:[email protected]??)

Elena

HI,
Maybe a file I can edit that says to run the Garmin stuff in 32-bit mode?
Right or control click the Garmin application (or utility) then click: Get Info
In the Get Info window under the General tab, if it can be enabled you should see:
Open in 32-bit mode.
Activity Monitor (Applications/Utilities) shows all apps running in 64 bit. If it doesn't have 64 bit under Kind on the right, then it's running in 32 bit mode.

Can Mac mini boot into 64-bit kernel

http://macperformanceguide.com/SnowLeopard-64bit.html says:
To determine if your Mac has 32-bit or 64-bit firmware, copy/paste the following command into Terminal:
ioreg -l -p IODeviceTree | grep firmware-abi
...output:
| | "firmware-abi" = <EFI64>
As shown above, the firmware-abi has the value EFI64, indicating that my Mac Pro is 64-bit capable. If it reads EFI32, then your Mac cannot be booted into a 64-bit kernel.
...well, my Mac mini displays that EFI64 64-bit info, but when booting with the "64" keys down it nevertheless uses the 32-bit kernel.
So can the Mac mini boot into 64-bit kernel?

What you are missing is that Apple has written into the boot ROM for certain Macs which meet the criteria to not be able to boot with the 64-bit kernel. The Mac mini is not allowed to boot into 64-bit mode by Apple. There is a list of non-pro Macs hard coded into the EFI boot firmware that tells it not to allow these Macs to boot into 64-bit mode. The Mac mini is on the list! Try as you may the Mac mini will not do it without a hack.
If you google this issue you can find a hack to rewrite the boot firmware and allow the mini to boot into 64-bit mode. It can be dangerous to your mini if you make a mistake!
Here is one hack;

Windows 8.1 Nvidia Windows Kernel Mode Driver Driver stopped responding and recovered?

I have the newst version of the 15" MBP Retina with the Haswell chip and Nvidia GT 750m. The problem I started having about 1 week ago is intermittent it seems, but involves the graphics driver when I'm in windows.
The screen goes flashes to black for about 5 seconds then recovers and the display comes back up. It just continues to do this every 10-15 seconds and the error messages displayed is "Display driver stopped responding and has recovered" below that it says Display driver Nvidia Windows Kernel Mode Driver Vers.####### stopped responding and has successfully recoverd.
What's crazy is the problem is not limited to any particular version of the driver! I used system restore and went back a few weeks just to make sure, thinking it was just a conflict with a new update somewhere. I have tried to install old versions of the 64-bit Geforce driver and it is irrelevant, the problem keeps cropping back up. I dont' know what to do, and can't even function in the Windows side hardly at all for very long.
Please help
Thanks
Robert

Hi Robert,
I dont know if this will help you, but yesterday when I logged into Win 8.1 on the same rMBP as you I got an update notice for a new driver for the NVIDIA graphics card.
This is the driver that I got the notice for. http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/73780/en-us
You may want to download this and try installing it.
Good Luck

Mac Pro not able to boot into 64 bit kernel?

Hello,
I've been trying to boot while using the 6 and 4 buttons held down to no avail. This mac pro was bought in 2007 (work computer). Am I not able to boot into 64 bit mode with Snow Leopard? If so, does that mean I can't take advantage of the 64 bit kernel?
Thanks,

Man, Yes, when I am rendering all 8 cores in Maya, up to 4 gigs of ram are being used. Why is that so hard to believe? I should be able to render in RAM preview in After Effects a whole lot more than i can now without cacheing.!!!!
Is Maya a 64 bit application? If Maya is not using more than 4GB, than you should be talking to the Maya developers.
You should be able to use Applications -> Utilities -> Activity Monitor and look at the "Kind" field. If it says "intel (64 bits)", then it is a 64 bit application.
How many times do I have to state "YES, I will be using more than 4 gigs of RAM per program"?
Why is it the tech people really don't understand how intensive program dynamics like Maya and Blender are,
You are responding to my post, so I'm going to say, I have been working for major computer manufactures since the early 70's working with "Big Iron" computer systems, not PCs, and I most likely know a lot more about how computers work, then many computer users. Please do not tell me I do not understand. I've been working with 64 bit code since the early 90's.
and yet Apple touts their excellence in 64 bit programs like AFX, yet, I can't use more than 4 gb of RAM?
Are you saying AFX (is that After Effects?) is not a 64 bit application yet? If not, then I suggest you talk to Adobe, not Apple.
Just for fun, I wrote a sample program, which allocated a large amount of memory. I ran it on my iMac with is booted with a 32 bit 10.6.2 Snow Leopard kernel. Here are the results:
PID RESIDENT VIRTUAL PageFlt Reclaim COMMAND
54296 4.74G 9.32G 0K 0K tmp
My program has more than 4GB of physical RAM (4.74GB), and a virtual memory size of 9.32GB.
If I use Activity Monitor, I can see that my program is listed with a Kind of "intel (64 bit)".
So if Maya cannot use more than 4GB of memory, it is a Maya problem. Talk to the Maya developers.
We aren't cows Apple. We are people with limited money trying to make it in the world. Not every mac pro user is a business and we don't want too much control.
You are not talking to Apple, just other Mac users. If you wish to tell something to Apple, I would encourage you to use either:
