Today i installed the Mac OS X 10.5.8 Combo Update on my Atom 330 Mac (see below). After a reboot it was back to 1024×768 only. So I guessed the driver Kexts were overwritten by the upgrade. Just re-install the Kexts and all should be working a-OK. Hyperthreading is still not supported. Am now pretty convinced that OS X isn’t recognising the CPU correctly.

[Update] With the upgrade to 10.5.8 the sleep mode breaks. There is currently only a fix for Voodoo kernels but not the plain Vanilla ones. Very annoying this is. Maybe I’ll have to re-install.

[Update 2] I have re-installed to 10.5.6 because that gives me sleep and Atom 330 Hyperthreading. I’ll then wait & see what Snowleopard brings…
