Wireless card and kernel panic

So for no apparent reason my airport has failed in my powerbook 17" 1.5 w/1.5. It just has no strength to start and seems to loose juice as time in a given session passes. so I threw a wireless card I had in to see how it would fare. The good news is that it works great but the bad news was that I often had to restart it up to 10x to get it to start instead of just going to the kernel panic screen. The functionality is so hobbled without the card that I'm willing to do this every time I restart but it would be great to make everything sing again.The card is a Sonnet card and they have no functional plugin to fix the issue. I'm running 10.4.9 solidly with no other issues and no other problems once i get a clean startup. Any ideas?

Kernel panics are not good news as my FAQ* explains:
http://www.macmaps.com/kernelpanic.html
If they happen only with the Sonnet card, ask them for updated drivers.
If they happen with no Sonnet card, it sounds like the router you are using needs a new firmware update. See my FAQ* on Wireless:

  • Novatel Wireless XU870 and kernel panic

    I have installed both Novatel drivers and Apple WWAN Update to a Mac Book Pro (OSX version 10.4.8). When I put Novatel Wireless XU870 card in ExpressCard slot Mac Book Pro goes grazy. In Finder top bar icons (clock, display, etc) disappears and after a second or two they come back. OSX shows a message of new network ports and let me configure PPP settings etc. At the same time Finder top bar icons are blinking on and off. I can´t get connected with Internet dialup and after a minute I got kernel panic. I tried with another Mac Book Pro but it didn´t work either.
    I have tried the card with brand new Fujitsu-Siemens laptop and it works great with it (Win Vista). Any ideas? Please, help.

    So it seems it's down to the SW, either theirs or yours, theirs seems most likely.
    They don't say what exact version of OSX they're using..
    As a long shot, you might try Trashing these files and Reboot...
    /Users/nnnnLibrary/Preferences/com.apple.internetconnect.plist
    /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/preferences.plist
    /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/NetworkInterfaces.plist
    Have you tried plugging it in without their SW installed yet?

  • Hard Feezing and Kernel Panics - Early 11 MBP

    Hey just wondering if anyone has any insight into this...
    I've been experiencing hard freezing and kernel panics on my Early 11 Macbook Pro for several months.  The hard freezing only happens when I wake up my system from sleep.  I'll open the lid and when it happens, within seconds, everything locks up.  No spinning wheel, just frozen machine and I have to do a hard reboot.  I also get random kernel panics as well.
    I took it in the the Genius Bar a few weeks ago, they ran tests and said the hardware was all fine and that I should reinstall Lion after a clean format.  Well I did that and still having issues.  Not sure if it's being caused by a 3rd party app...or if I really do have bad hardware after all.
    When they did a diagnostic they said that 'soundflower' was showing up in my kernel panic log and that I should find what that is and delete it, so I did.  In my most recent and only kernel panic, shown below, I don't see any 3rd party language anywhere.
    Anyone have an idea of what might be causing this?

  • Mac freezing and kernel panics

    Please help if anyone can. I'm not much of a computer expert.
    I apologize in advance if I'm not asking this question in the right forum or topic- I haven't ever posted before today.
    I have a PowerMac G5 dual 2 GHz processor machine running 10.4.9. Lately I have had problems with freezing and kernel panics, especially at startup or soon after startup.
    I have 1 GB RAM, 150 GB hard drive with 117 GB free space. I have no peripheral devices hooked to my computer- just an Apple USB mouse and keyboard that came with my computer.
    Panics occur at startup usually, and require a restart using the power button.
    Sometimes the system profiler shows that I have only 1 CPU.
    I've run all the Apple hardware diagnostic stuff, Disk Utility, Disk Warrior, etc, and it comes up clean- no problems. I've run fsck -fy, and I've done a full erase and reinstall, then update to 10.4.9. Problem persists.
    Sometimes I don't get the startup sound, and then everything freezes.
    Sometimes it freezes on the blue screen and shows the prohibitory sign.
    Sometimes when it freezes, the fans go wild and just keep increasing in speed until I force restart.
    Recent kernel panic log reads as follows:

    Can anyone help.
    Thank you very much.

    Based on that info, it sounds like either the optical or hard drive is beginning to go bad and perhaps the CPU on the logicboard. The fact it mentions iostorage, that typically deals with the storage devices on the computer. The fact that the CPU disappears is not good. Backup your data and try to replace the hard drive. See my FAQ* on backing up:
    http://www.macmaps.com/backup.html
    A G5 takes SATA hard drives, and won't work with the Parallel ATA drives. SATA drives take the connectors shown here:
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serial_ATA
    The drive may still be under warranty even if the computer is not. Look on the sticky label on the outside of the drive.

  • Temp and kernel panic relation?

    Is there a relationship between temperature and kernel panic?
    I've spent the day restarting the computer trying everything I've found at apple discussions and support to fix the nonstop kernel panic restart requests.
    After I Left the thing off for an hour - I gave up after my husband said my ranting caused Ga Tech to lose the Gator Bowl- I was able to get almost through the OS reinstall, which was about step number 45 in my restarts for the day.
    so is this a temp problem? Is this chance or related to the cool down? Cannot wait for tomorrow to talk to someone at apple!

    After you talk to them be sure to post back ...it may very well be related and if so indicates a hardware issue - meaning you may have to send it in for repairs.
    When you mention it's a week old then I'm assuming it's a Core2Duo and not just a refurbished orig. Macbook.

  • CrashPlan and Kernel Panics

    Ever since I updated to 10.7.4 I have been having problems with CrashPlan 3.2 and kernel panics. I use CrashPlan on a MacMini 3,1 w/ 2 GHz Core 2 Duo processor and 8 GB of memory. I have several external drives that contain a large collection of photos and home movies connected to the system. There is also a large external disk that I use as a local CrashPlan backup of other computers on my home lan. The system serves mostly as a backup and file server. There are a total of over 1 million files and over 1.3 TB of data that is backed up from this computer.
    After the 10.7.4 upgrade I started getting regular kernel panics when the system was running only CrashPlan. The crash report usually indicated that java was the active process, pointing to CrashPlan as the culprit. To verify that 10.7.4 was the culprit I did clean installs of 10.7.3 and 10.7.4 on an external disk, installed CrashPlan on each of them, and alternately booted from them. I was able to run 10.7.3 for long periods of time (days/months) without crashes while 10.7.4 resulted in a crash, usually within an hour of enabling CrashPlan but never more than a day or so. The crashes seemed to correspond to CrashPlan having high levels of activity. I verified the file systems of all the external drives. In August I finally got around to updating to ML, and by then 10.8.1 was out. I did a clean install on an external drive, installed CrashPlan, crossed my fingers, and, to my disappointement, ..., crashes continued. It may just be my imagination, but I would say if anything the crashes happened sooner.
    I had a several month running discussion with CrashPlan support, which by the way was very responsive and gave good suggestions. I tried many things including 32 bit Java instead of 64 bit. All of this was to no avail until this past week. It was suggested that I increase the limit on the memory. Instructions fro doing this are to edit /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.crashplan.engine.plist (need root permissions to do this), search for the line that contains -Xmx512m and increase 512 to something larger. It was suggested that I start with 1024, but since I have a lot of memory on the system I used 2048. Of course CrashPlan has to be stopped and restarted for this to take effect.
    Perhaps I am being premature in writing this post, but the backup has been running for over 12 hours and seems to be working fine. I noticed that the java process is using 870 MB of real and 1 GB of virtual memory. So, this could explain why CrashPlan had trouble when it was limited to 512 MB of memory. I do not know why this was not a problem under 10.7.3. I did notice under 10.7.3 that CrashPlan reported using 650 MB of real memory for the same backup set. So, for some reason it uses more under 10.8.1. It may also be that 10.7.4 and 10.8.1 have stronger memory protection, but I am not sure. I am posting this information in the hopes that it will benefit someone else having similar problems.

  • Known issues with CUDA 5.0.17 and 5.0.24 driver (including crashes and kernel panics) on Mac OSX

    We have recently learned of some issues with the new CUDA drivers from Nvidia that cause crashes and kernel panics in some circumstances, including when switching between applications that use the GPU.
    See this page for details.

    You are experiencing a page fault (reference to an area outside of what is owned by the software in question) in the AirPort driver, in a Mac OS X kernel that does not have obvious third-party modifications to it.
    This should not be happening. Your Mac OS X image may be Bad.
    If you do not already have a Trusted Backup, that should be your Top Priority.
    If this is a new MacBook, and it is within the first 90 days of ownership, contact telephone support and ask them to help you. They will likely suggest a re-Install, right over the Mac OS X you have in place now. This is intended to do no damage, but you should always have a Backup.

  • Known issues with CUDA 5.0.17 driver (including crashes and kernel panics) on Mac OSX

    We have recently learned of some issues with the new CUDA drivers from Nvidia that cause crashes and kernel panics in some circumstances, including when switching between applications that use the GPU.
    See this page for details.

    Whenever you remove system modifications, they must be removed completely, and the only way to do that is to use the uninstallation tool, if any, provided by the third-party developers, or to follow their instructions. If the software has been incompletely removed, you may have to re-download or even reinstall it in order to finish the job.
    Here are some general guidelines. Suppose you want to remove something called “BrickYourMac.” First, consult the product's Help menu, if there is one, for instructions. Finding none there, look on the developer's website, say www.brickyourmac.com. (That may not be the actual name of the site; if necessary, search the Web for the product name.) If you don’t find anything on the website or in your search, email the developer. While you're waiting for a response, download BrickYourMac.dmg and open it. There may be an application in there such as “Uninstall BrickYourMac.” If not, open “BrickYourMac.pkg” and look for an Uninstall button.
    If you can’t remove software in any other way, you’ll have to erase your boot volume and perform a clean reinstallation of OS X. Never install any third-party software unless you're sure you know how to uninstall it; otherwise you may create problems that are very hard to solve.
    Trying to remove complex system modifications by hunting for files by name often will not work and may make the problem worse. The same goes for "utilities" that purport to remove software.

  • Belkin wireless router causing kernel panics

    Whenever I connect to my family's Belkin wireless n router, after several minutes it causes a kernel panic randomly. After a hard reset, no wireless tools are able to find the network. Normally I'm only here for a few days so it doesn't effect me too much .
    There doesn't appear to be anything noticable in dmesg.
    Note that I've been able to reproduce this running Debian Sid with kernel 2.6.26, and using 2.6.25 did not solve the kernel panics, but it was still able to see and connect to the network after reset. I am unsure what is causing this, all I know is it happens everytime I come home, and the problem seems to fix itself after I leave and come back.
    My wireless card is an intel 4965
    dmesg | grep "iwl"

    The router is not causing the panic, the panic is caused by the driver. Please file a bug upstream with the driver maintainers

  • HT4833 logic files on external hard drive and kernel panic

    I was using 2 external HDs via the Sonnet sata pro express34 card in MaBookPro. One ext. HD had only Logic project files, the other had plugins. Logic 9.I.7 installed on the MBP i7 late 2010 (OS 10.6.8), with Motu 828 audio interface via FW400. All this worked for a number of projects (simple stereo masters). Then Kernel panic damaging one ext HD with plugins. Then with just the other extHD connected, problems began. Trying to bounce a song, it stopped and froze, kernel panic with damage to the ext HD.
    Seemed Logic could no longer work with the files on the ext HD. Don't know if this began before or after the HD was damaged.
    First HD couldn't mount so turned off journaling, mounted and enabled journaling again. Have been backing up all on that HD via FW800, then will erase and format it.
    Second HD had
    "...Keys out of order
    Rebuilding catalog B-tree.
    The volume ONETB could not be repaired..."
    I backed up the files, erased and reformatted it. Waiting to try the setup again until the problem is figured out.
    1) I see there is also a Logic folder on the MBP with 3 projects in it. Did this confuse the program to have this on the internal drive plus a Logic folder with projects on the external drive?
    Can I set up the program so all projects always stay on the external drive, instead of a default which created these early projects on the MBP drive?
    2) Is this not the problem and the whole thing is a problem with the express/34 card esata drivers/kext files, or 32 bit vs 64 bit, or ...?
    Many thanks, chas

    I don't see how to edit my post above. I did not intend to title it "HT4833", that was just a page I'd looked at in the learning about Logic stuff, and this showed up in my question title. Strange there seems not to be a way to edit posts.

  • Frozen Mouse and Kernel Panic

    Hi,
    I bought the latest macbook with the basic configuration (128gb etc.). I started the machine for the first time and updated to the latest version of Yosemite 10.10.3.
    After the updating process the mouse cursor got stuck around every minute and after around 15 min the mac shut itself down reporting a "kernel panic". I got the error report but I couldn't find any solutions in that forum and since I am new to a mac maybe you can help me.
    Thanks

  • Mac Book Pro - Rebooting and Kernel Panic

    Hi Everyone,
    I hope that you're all well.
    I've recently sold my iMac and purchased a Mac Book Pro Mid 2010 edition (i7, 8gig Ram, 500mb disk). It has Mountain Lion 10.8.4 installed.
    and I am having problems with the machine and I hope that you might be able to help out.
    My machine is doing repeatedly doing, what I have learnt is, a Kernel Panic which is incredibly frustrating.
    When the system reboots it offers me the report below.
    Would someone be kind enough to let me know what the issue with my machine might be.
    With thanks
    James

    Mid-2010 15" MacBook Pros - the bad NVIDIA GPU
    If you're having frequent kernel panics with your 15" mid-2010, or intermittent screen problems, the problem is, more than likely, the faulty NVIDIA GPU found in a number of those machines.
    Here's just a sample of a kernel panic log that points to the faulty NVIDIA card:
    Kernel Extensions in backtrace (with dependencies):
             com.apple.GeForce(6.4.0)@0x82ac4000->0x82b7afff
                dependency: com.apple.NVDAResman(6.4.0)@0x834a0000
                dependency: com.apple.iokit.IONDRVSupport(2.2.1)@0x82fd3000
                dependency: com.apple.iokit.IOPCIFamily(2.6.5)@0x7a802000

    Here's the "official" Apple take on the issue - but the very real kernel panics need not be preceded by 'Intermittent black screen or loss of video'... in fact, you might not experience any video problems at all. Although video problems can certainly be a portent of things to come…
    So what can you do? Print out a copy of your kernel panic and a copy of the Knowledge Base article and take them, along with your machine, to your local Apple Store or an Apple Authorized Service Provider. They should be more than willing to install a new logic board at no cost. I have no idea why this faulty GPU is making the headline here on the MacBook Pro forum so often now - could it be because Mountain Lion is just bringing the issue to a head more readily? I don't know - I only know that we're seeing more and more of these kernel panics of late.
    Good luck,

  • 10.4.4 and Kernel Panic on MDD

    Hi--I updated my system to 10.4.4 (from 10.4.3) and now it kernel panics during startup. Following the hardware test, fairly quickly after the "rotating gear" appears, the system panics.
    I did a fresh install on another disk in the system (using 10.4.3 installer disk) and it boots fine. Performing the 10.4.4 system update and rebooting from the new startup disk also panics exactly the same way.
    Ran disk permissions and latest DiskWarrior on my regular startup disk--everything checked out ok.
    I couldn't find any info in the kernel panic log...
    I have a third party USB2 card in the system as well as third party RAM. System has been running flawlessly for 18 months on 10.3.x->10.4.3 and is running fine on a rolled-back 10.4.3 install.
    Has anybody else had this experience with booting 10.4.4 on an MDD G4 system?
    Mac OS X (10.4.4)  
    G4/MDD/1.25

    OK, I think I found the problem--it seems that the third party USB card installed in the system doesn't work with 10.4.4 (it is fine with 10.4.3). Removing the card allows the system to boot.
    The card doesn't have a lot of info in System Profiler:
    USB Bus:
    Host Controller Location: Expansion Slot
    Host Controller Driver: AppleUSBOHCI
    PCI Device ID: 0x0035
    PCI Revision ID: 0x0043
    PCI Vendor ID: 0x1033
    Bus Number: 0x13
    It doesn't matter if any usb devices are connected to card, the system panics under 10.4.4 with this card.

  • Weird Video problem and kernel panic!

    Okay, so last ngiht I was running tech tool maintenence, and I had repair on. So, it finished scanning my startup volume (I was on my eDrive) and then I shut down and restarted. Now, it tried to start from my startup volume (tiger 4.7, with latest updates) and it says you need to restart your computer (which means there is a kernel panic, am I right?) I try safe mode to no avail, I even reset the PMU and reset the PRAM (but I didnt hear the starup noise again). So, I put in my backup HD, and it starts up, but wait! Now the video is horribly wrong! It is all in TERRIBLE quality and in mostly only greys, I mean it looks like a 4 mb vram video card, there are very few pixels of color( there are some intermitedly) and there is terrible ghosting, and I can barely read anything. so, I checked my display, and universal access settings, and fooled around with those, and nothing happened. So, now I try and start from my eDriveand it start, but now it has the same horrible color problem as my other drive. Oh boy, this is a new computer, and I already have a kernel pnic, and a video problem, what can I do? Thanks for any help. Matthew. I have a sawtooth, a radeon 9200 flashed video card, and the latest tiger.

    What if you tried running mplayer with the following command :
    mplayer -fs -zoom filename
    As for the "too pixelish" problem well... you could try increasing the "nice" level (at least in VLC). For the other video players I don't know.

    Since it references com.apple.iokit.IOFireWireFamily, I suspect that some FW device is causing the panic. Disconnect all of them and see if that stops the problem. As for general KP stuff, start with http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/kernelpanics.html
