Acer Aspire One Hackintosh Running Mac OS X and Logic Audio Pro

Me noodling around on my Acer Aspire One A150 running Mac OS X Leopard 10.5.5 with some custom kexts to get 1024x600 res, stock audio and wired ethernet working. Machine is stock, no hardware mods (yet) but shows that the Atom netbook platform can do quite a bit with the right software - near-zero audio latency thanks to Core Audio. I threw some patterns together in Garage Band and flew them into Logic Pro 8. All the backing tracks are playing back live in Logic Audio. The keyboard is an M-Audio Axiom 61. Ignore the flubbed notes, it's only a demo :)

TigerDirect has some refurbished stock of these for $199 - 1GB ram, 120GB HD

Could you tell me how you got the audio working ?

[EpsilonProcess]

Standard Azalia drivers with HDA fix included with Paul's MSI Wind drivers. Beware that sometimes shutdown will cause kernel panic. Reboot will be clean, though so if you aren't comfortable, use reboot instead of shutdown, and manually power it off.

So, it's like if you have a real Mac? Zero audio latency? How it's MIDI response? A guide to install Leopard on Aspire One?

Sorry 4 my many questions but also I have an One :P and I'm keyboardist like you :D

[EpsilonProcess]

It's like you have a tiny Mac. Yes very close to zero latency - like playing a hardware synth/piano. You're hearing MIDI response as the tune is being played by an Ensoniq TS-10 connected via the MIDI in on the Axiom...very tight.

hey I have the exact same thing except..i cant get that resolution. where did you find a kext for it?

[EpsilonProcess]

Search for Paul's MSI Wind Driver Pack. It contains the kext fix for the GMA950.

@Vegeth24

A fake is a fake and no matter how much you dress it up, the real thing always wins.
