USB2 PCI card = Yet Even Another Kernal Panic & Freeze

Its almost "a Tom & Gerry" situation - find the cause of one kernal panic shut down and yet another crops up the very next day without fail. I have had to remove the pci card and have reverted to the previous Wacom driver ! to continue working and stop losing any more studio - downtime !!!
So I wonder .... if its my Mac being so very fussy about PCI cards ?
I have now given up attempting to use a Wacom Tablet plugged into a Lacie NEC chipset PCI card (on a PPC Mac running on Tiger 10.4.11 !

Hello Tom
It has been an interesting but frustrating experience to date .. esp. as the latest Wacom Tablet Driver V6.1.1-2(RC) ended up tripping out even without the pci card
I am now using only the Macs native USB2 ports:
Rear > (1) keyboard & mouse (2) UPS unit (not using powerchute).
Front > to plug in the Wacom Tablet when required (now running on the previous version Driver V6.1.0-7(RC)
This is the exact card http://www.lacie.com/products/product.htm?pid=11159
I am way out of my depth as to why
Perhaps your kind expertise may possibly shed some light on this one !
Kind Regards

  • Another Kernal Panic Tread

    Hi everyone
    I saw that there was a recent thread on kernel panics, and I have studied it and got about as much info as I could glean from the great links in the thread. Kernel panics are new to me, but I am not new to mac. Here's what's happening with my Mac Book Pro.
    May 5 - in a meeting - online wirelessly using Firefox latest version, Thunderbird is open as well. - closed MBP - opened a little later and got the message that the macperson sitting next to me recognized as a KP. I restarted - loud beep and restarted ok. I put it out of my mind. Been working fine
    May 19 - this morning - same scenario as above except this time I was plugged in for power - waking up from closed and sleep I got another Kernal Panic. I checked panic.log and saw it had happened on April 12 as well, but never before. While I cannot remember what happened on April 12, I do recall that last month I did have a crash when waking from sleep, but did not see an error message.
    -I have no usb or firewire devises hooked up, but I am connected to my Epson printer wirelessly through printer sharing and my isight G5.
    -I have checked all the crash logs and they are difficult to decipher, but I did not see anything that happened the same on all those days besides the crashes.
    -I checked my installer logs and I have not installed anything accept Apple Updates anytime recently. -I verified my disk - all ok.
    -I repaired permissions.
    -I downloaded and ran Memtest - it says all is well with my memory (1gb, allthough it said it was testing 443mb). It is not new, but what came with the MBP.
    Is there anyone who has heard of Kernel Panics happening during waking from sleep in particular? Can it be that just repairing permissions will have fixed it?
    Thanks for reading through all this and let me know what info I can give to help. BTW - here is the report from the panic.log. All three are the same except for the dates:

    I see that those are numbers from the panic.log text above, but I do not know what it is that you want - system.log? That is a whole lot of text. From when to when? As I see it looking through the text, the activity was all background stuff. Here it is:

    Any more ideas please ?
    Thank you

    HI a brody, I was reading your exchange with someone else, and I thought about asking you about a problem I'm having with my G5. First of all, i'm fairly illiterate computer wise, so please excuse me if i say something absolutely stupid. I have Mac OS X 10.5.6 and it crashed two weeks ago while viewing a documentary my daughter gave me on a CD. It just froze, no mouse, no keyboard. I pushed the start button for five seconds to turn it off. Waited a few minutes and turned it back on again. It didn't chime and it didn't boot. I pressed the button again, but this time a re-pressed it immediately after it went off, and it booted without a chime. It stayed on for about 15 minutes and froze again. I called the apple store near me and they asked me to bring it in, and replaced the hard drive. Paid $191.25. Got back home and turned it on, it chimed, booted, and after 20 minutes froze again. I called them and they told me that it needed a new logic card. I decided to research the problem a bit more because after the hard drive fiasco I'm doubtful the diagnostic skills of the genius bar near me inspire the trust necessary to spend another 900 dollars. I got on this chat room and read your chat in which you asked another guy if he had any Logitech products in his system. I have a Logitech THX sound system connected to my G%. I disconnected after reading your comments. In your experience... What can be going wrong? What can I do? I'll appreciate any light you can shed on this. THanks.

  • Yet another kernal panic issue

    I'm having kernal panics too....
    My iMac starts up with no startup chime, and then it starts up OK, but then when it gets to the part when the login window comes up, its just a blue screen, and every 3-5 seconds the little "startup spinny thingy" comes up for about 1/5 of a second. I call it the blue-screen of death. I'm pretty sure its the memory, and I'm preforming all the tasks apple says to do on the support page. I've heard of people saying that buying a new keyboard or slapping the mac would work, but it doesn't for me. Usually I just reboot in safe-mode and all goes away, but now I can't boot up in safe mode OR hear a startup chime.

    Please read this in conjunction with my responce to your other post. 
    Have you tried disconnecting all external devices (standfast the Apple mouse and keyboard) and seeing how that goes? You may also wish to try removing the SODIMM RAM and Airport card if present). Some questions for you:
    Have you added any hardware/software recently?
    What does the Apple Hardware Test disk report? (Here's a more extensive RAM checker.)
    Do you have another Mac/External Firewire Hard Disk (they can help troubleshoot).
    cheers

    See if this can be reproduced with just the Apple wired keyboard, mouse, and no third party graphics card (except that which shipped with the Mac), and any display connected.
    If it can, then this kind of sounds like a RAM issue. Run the hardware test that came with the computer. While this article refers to Powerbooks, it applies to all g5s as well:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TA27043?viewlocale=en_US
    If no error results from that test, the machine's hard drive is less than 85% full (this is an arbitrary number), the directory appears to be good*:

    Then I'd point at the RAM.

  • Another Kernal panic.... your thoughts?

    Here is my main Kernal Panic I get. Any thoughts if it's possibly the audio or video or logic board? It's not RAM because it was tested by Apple. Thanks

    I'm short of ideas on this one.....
    The note in the panic report regarding "enable preemption" means that the system is being directed to cease one process that it is currently involved in, and allow a second process to take precidence in the processing order. That would be like, the video stream has begun, the system is processing the stream to be seen, but the command to process the accompanying audio jumps in, saying "Me first" and the system freezes- unable to complete the tasks requested.
    A healthy system OS should be more able to handle the processing requests.
    Tied in with the healthy OS, is a healthy hard drive. If the hard drive is getting "long in the tooth", has data errors or corruption, is reaching capacity, or has directory damage, these processing problems can occur.
    Using The Disk Utility from the OS X install disc to repair your hard drive directory may provide improvement in the performance.
    Freeing up hard drive space, or increasing memory may also help with buffering the incoming data, thus improving performance.

  • And Yet Even Another Standalone Download Issue Safari 3.2.1 Tiger

    Hello all
    +*It must be the will of Apple !*+
    Alas, http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=8458073#8458073
    Again,I cant find a link to a download the Tiger Version of the latest update, that will allow me to use a stand-alone-download for a Mac via a PC !!If any kind soul can please once again help that would be most appreciated.
    Otherwise, I shall have stick with FireFox !
    Thanks again in advance

    I wonder if the browser is reporting the platform to the web site and directing us to different pages because that link definitely takes me to a page offering Tiger and Leopard versions. I hate pages that do that. A certain competitor of Apple would only let you get access to its updates if you were running a copy of the OS on your computer connecting to its site, making it impossible to update a different computer not connected to the Internet. Quo vadis Apple?

  • Kernal panics, freezes and crashes

    I have been carrying on a discussion on the Folding@Home forum here:
    http://forum.folding-community.org/viewtopic.php?t=13790
    but it is becoming more than a problem specifically with F@H it seems. (F@H is a medical research project run by Stanford University and it has excellent, though currently perplexed, help forums). The F@H forum discussion currently runs to 6 pages so far, but round about page 5 I start to post what logs I can find which might be relevant.
    I have been Folding for a fair time now, without any incident, but a few weeks back, whenever I was due to return a unit the cursor and screen froze and I had to power off, leave the machine for several minutes, and then reboot. the completed unit was lost yet a new unit was downlkoaded and processed. this has happened to my last three units.
    In addition, I moniter F@H via a front-end called InCrease which as a facility to stop processing. Whenever I stopped F@H, within 60 seconds, usually much less, the syetem kerneled. It does not do this when I stop any other process.
    I have uninstalled several bits of software which had been added recently: Intego Virusbarrier X4, Intego Personal BackUp X4, Intego NetUpdateX4, Intego CommonServices X4, LittleSnitch and WeatherDock.
    Since these have been unistalled, whenever I stop F@H processing, it doesn't kernel but crashes with white text on black lines superimposed over the desktop. I don't understand what it says, but two points of interest might be: invalid (pmap) and unaligned frame address 0x8E008821
    Can anyone please tell me what is going on? I suspect that F@H is implicated (obviously) but that it is not guilty - if it were, then I would have experinced this problem before.
    I have updated all software via Software Update so I should be fully up to date.
    Any advice would be very very much appreciated. If you require any more detail, logs, information, etc. then just let me know and I'll do what I can - although I am a technophobe and don't really understand much about what goes on!
    700MHz CRT G3 iMac slot-loading CD-R/W   Mac OS X (10.4.3)  

    Yesterday, I again repaired permsissions and verified the disk with Disk Utility with no errors reported other than "normal" permission type errors, mainly on widgets;
    Then I:
    Ran OnyX maintenance in full (every available option);
    Ran OnyX Cleaning except the options for Cookies, Bookmark icons, Form values, Obsolete items of Mail folder and Mail downloads;
    Ensured that I had installed all available updates via Software Update (there were none when I checked);
    Safe booted and run fsck -fy several times with no errors reported on any pass;
    Cursed and swore out loud.
    And something has worked, but I really don't know what the problem was or what actually cured it although I suspect that OnyX did the trick, maybe in conjunction with one of the other utilities which I ran yesterday.
    The last Folding unit uploaded correctly and I've been credited with it - currently I'm working a Tinker with an extimated 11 day turnaround.
    Prior to that expected return I will reinstall everything which I uninstalled and try stopping the unit from time to time to see if the crashes have returned. Better a recoverable freeze mid-process than to lose it all at the end.
    On a recommendation on another thread I shall be looking at Applejack later, as it is alleged to be more "powerful" than fsck -fy.
    I'll only report back either to answer any subsequent posts or if it all goes wrong again.
    Many thanks again.

    Hi Scott Mosher!
    I have an article here for you that will help you troubleshoot this issue with kernel panics:
    OS X: About kernel panics
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3742
    See the section toward the bottom of the article labeled “Troubleshooting a recurring kernel panic,” but keep in mind this statement in that section:
    Diagnosing a recurring kernel panic can be difficult. If you would like to avoid this process, or do not know how to perform any of the following steps, consider bringing the Mac to a Genius at an Apple Store or an Apple Authorized Service Provider for assistance. Be sure to ask that, if the drive needs reformatting or replacing, they contact you about escalating your case to a special data recovery service. If you plan to visit an Apple Retail store, make a reservation at the Genius Bar using http://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar/ (available in some countries only).
    Thanks for coming to the Apple Support Communities!
    Cheers,
    Braden

  • Kernal panics after installing AIRPORT EXTREME PCI 54M WIFI CARD

    hi all - after reading around the forums - i bought this off ebay
    AIRPORT EXTREME PCI 54M WIFI CARD /APPLE POWERMAC G3&G4
    http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&item=37 0157697386#ht1341wt892
    but when i boot up i all i get is the screen of death - kernal panic - and need to reboot to another kernal panic
    i have tried it in slots 2-5 and the result is the same - i have now taken it out and the machine boots fine.
    I am keen to use it as a media streamer for appletv - have i bought the wrong card or is there something i can try/do?
    as always - thanks in advance

    Hi-
    I would consider the problem to possibly be incompatibility with Leopard.
    The seller states 10.2/10.3/10.4 "and above", but does this include 10.5x? Leopard is not specifically mentioned. "And above" could mean up to 10.4.11.......
    If you have a drive with OS 10.4x on it, try booting to that volume with the card.
    If it works, then it's an OS incompatibility.
    If it doesn't, then the card is the problem.
    Biggest problem, is it looks like some generic brand. Not knowing the maker really makes trouble shooting difficult.
    Is is a Broadcom chipset?
    While generic Broadcom chipset cards worked well up through 10.4.11, Leopard seems to have "broken" that generic support that was previously enjoyed, for at least some of those chips. Seems to be an "era" related thing......
    If the chipset is Atheros, the previously successful Orangeware driver also doesn't work in Leopard.

  • Kernal Panic and "Airport card not installed"

    Hello.
    I opened my laptop's lid this morning to find that my airport card did not turn on automatically as it usually does. Nor would it turn on from the menu bar. So I decided to restart the machine. Upon restart and log in, Airport said that the card was not installed. Restarted again... kernal panic. Restarted a third time... another kernal panic. Then tried to safe boot, successfully booted and logged in. Restarted from the Apple Menu. Another kernal panic. Reset the PRAM and had a successful boot, but still have same airport not installed message.
    Does anyone have an idea about what may be happening? Or any other ideas of what I can do. Anything would be of great help.
    Thanks

    Jason:
    Your Airport Extreme card is either not securely installed or has failed and needs to be replaced. Remove the Airport Extreme Card, wipe the contacts and re-install, making sure that it is securely in place. Then restart and see if the card is recognized. If it is not, you need a new card.

  • How to resolve a Kernal Panic in Leopard

    I am pulling my hair out with my MacBook Pro 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Laptop running with Leopard.
    3 weeks ago my laptop had a Kernal Panic. I made sure I had all my files backed up to my external drive which is a Western Digital My Book Essential Edition with 1 TB/TO of memory. At that time, I was using CS4 Photoshop, InDesign, Microsoft Word, Acrobat and Mail. I had large size photos saved on my hard drive and small movie clips so I removed them and only have my current work files saved on the hard drive and past work files saved on my external drive and any files I don't want to loose for sure burned to CDs. I was able to rule out that it is not a hardware issue by running Disk Utility from my OS disk. Then I uninstalled CS4 Design Premium. My laptop worked great for a couple of days without it. I then reinstalled CS4 and started having the Kernal Panics again. I thought Photoshop and InDesign was causing the problem. I decided to uninstall CS4 again then just install Dreamweaver and Fireworks because I needed to use them for a project. My laptop was working great for a couple of days then I had another Kernal Panic. Also, I noticed if I had my external drive plugged in it would slow down my computer so I only connect it when I am ready to back up my files for the day. So now I think I need to reinstall my OS. Below is today's Kernal Panic report. Can anyone help me interpret this and tell me what I am doing wrong/suggest solutions to resolve this? I am also thinking of upgrading my hard drive since it only has 160GB of memory and from what I read I need at least 120GB free to run Photoshop alone. Also upgrade the RAM...currently have 2GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM? Thanks.

  • First back up with TM....kernal panic

    last night, i installed a laCie 500GB USB2 Ext. HD to use with time machine. i reformated the drive and went to bed. this morning i woke to my fans running to beat the band and the command lines of a kernal panic.
    i restarted and then restarted time machine. it had to bake a 214gb back up and had about 30gb left.....don't know why so big, the files it was copying is only 140gb.....at any rate...when i tried to get it to finish the back up, it only moved an additional 30mb of data then seemed to stop.
    I trashed the entire back up and started over. it has been running all day. When i stopped for dinner, it had 181gb done of the 215....then had another kernal panic. i restarted again and am back at it only backed up an additional 30mb of data...still has about 34gigs to go.
    what am i doing wrong?

    I think this is it:

  • IMac experiencing kernal panic.  What hardware could be at fault?

    My 21 inch iMac running Snow leopard with a 1.83 Ghz processor is not functioning properly.  I purchased the computer used from a local university and after a few months of running Leopard it displayed the gray kernal panic screen that says "you need to restart your computer".  I wiped the hard drive and did a fresh instal of Leopard and upgraded to Snow Leopard.  Computer ran fine for a month or so and is now malfunctioning again. 
    Symptoms are:
    1. Programs crashing - spontaneous crashing during use or occasionally complete failure to open a program before it quits.  Restarting the computer usually fixes this problem
    2. Hardware (iSight camera and airport card) not recognized.  Restarting the computer sometimes fixes this problem. 
    3. Boot failure - either sits at the screen with the apple logo and spinning wheel or gets stuck at the first blue screen.
    4. Computer has not yet displayed a kernal panic screen since reinstalling the OS
    Any ideas for what hardware/software might be at fault or a course of action to further diagnose the problem?  Local IT department just gave me the run-around.
