Topic: Kernel panic OSX

Well, after installing the latest drivers, the displayed a kernel panic (the first time ever). I followed the deletion of the drivers and apps as per: http://www.rme-audio.de/forum/viewtopic.php?id=9233. and then ran permissions, tried again then the same error.

Are there any suggestions as to what the problems may be? I do not know where to begin to be honest, I thought it'd be a case of install and then unbridled joy. Back to reality then with a thud.

Re: Kernel panic OSX

Hi Blair,

Thanks for your time.

I am no mean Mac guy but I have tried to rustle up the info you asked for apart from the mainboard make and model, nothing
listed in System profiler.


Operation system (version/service pack) : Macbook 5.2(Mid 2009) 2.13 GHz, OSX 10.6.8 Snow Leopard
Mainboard make and model  : ??
RAM amount  : (2x2GB) 4GB
Network adapter(s) make and model  : Ethernet Vendor is NVIDIA, Model is MCP79-1........Wireless is Apple Wireless Network adapter (802.11 a/b/g/n)
Graphic card make and model  : Graphics card chipset model  :  NVIDIA GeForce 9400M
Other installed soundcard(s) make and model   : no other soundcard
Which audio software (name & version) shows the problem   :  No DAW shows the problem, I haven't got that far yet

briefly describe the issue.....I double click the Fireface USB.pkg file and it installs.

                                       I am then prompted to restart the Mac and when it tries to restart the kernel panic screen asks
                                       for me to hold down the ON button then turn back on again.

                                       When I turn back on an error message is displayed. (I will post the kernel panic in a separate post)

                                       I Try again after I trash the driver files, reboot, empty trash, then run Repair Disk Permissions on
                                       Macintosh HD (/Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility).

                                      I noticed that the two de.USB.plist files were not installed so I did not have to remove them? 
                                     

                                      I can then restart the computer without any error messages appearing.
                                      I try to install the latest drivers again and then the same process happens again.

                                     Thanks

                                     Brian
