Hi all,
I just installed F17 on a white macbook 13 for the most part everything works. I had to do some research to get everything working. The wireless did not work, the camera did not work and the fan was running on full blast and was loud! I figured out how to install the wireless and the camera and fixed the fan issue with mbpfan and that brought the noise level way down.
The other issue that I am having is that the second core on the machine is not being detected by the operating system. I am assuming that it is a kernel issue? Perhaps I can load a module?
My question is can someone please point me in the right direction how can I get the second core working?
and how do I load mbpfan on startup?
Thanks in advance,
DZ
