Constant Kernel Panics on OS X Mountain Lion.

Hello,

I've been experiencing constant kernel panics since installing Mountain Lion.

The panics sometimes happen every couple hours to happening as soon a I boot up, thus leading me to restart and trapping me in a constant rebooting because of kernel panics.

Can anybody spot what is going wrong, based on the diagnostic that is provided to me?

I think it is both hardware and software. I had daily crashes after installing Mountain Lion. After the logic board upgrade in my MacBook Pro mid-2010 model, the crashes have stopped. If Mountain Lion "used" the NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M for substantially more processing, then the silicon could very well heat up and fail at some point. I did install the NVIDIA driver hoping the NVIDIA software would handle the GT 330M better than the Apple Driver. The crashes dropped substantially, but did not go away. The logic board replacement which I did about a month ago solved the problem. I've not had a crash since the logic board replacement.


That doesn't mean the software can't be improved. On my machine (a sample of one), installing the NVIDIA driver resulted in substantially fewer crashes. Instead of a daily crash the crash frequency droped to 2 or 3 days apart. If the problem is heat dissapation on the older logic board then the choices to fix are reducing the use of the GPU so that it doesn't heat to the point of failure or replace the hardware with better heat dissipation so the GPU stays below the heat failure threshold.


I'm really happy to have the hardware fix which completely eliminated the crashing. If software comes along that doesn't impact performance, then I would be happy to have that software, too. Maybe Apple is going to upgrade their driver incorporating the fixes already made and released in the NVIDIA driver? That would get me to the point that I'm now running, only changing the driver from NVIDIA supplied to APPLE supplied.

Hi Paul, it does sound like your case is hardware-related, but there are lots of different problems being reported on here, and I guess some are hardware and others may be a combination of hardware and software. I'm pretty sure mine is a software problem judging by what Apple are saying, but we probably won't know for sure until the fix comes along.

Ever since I've been on 10.8.2 it's been Kernel Panic Festival. I have NEVER had a Kernel Panic EVER before 10.8.2, but I started getting them on this version of Mountain Lion - 15" Mid 2010 MacBook Pro


I have done the Apple Hardware Test and nothing was reported bad, did a 2 pass MemTest yesterday and everything was fine. Prior to this I formatted the drive and reinstalled Mountain Lion which I download from the App store again (version 10.8.2). I have also installed the latest NVIDIA Cuda Drivers (2012-11-30), but it seems that nothing I do solves the problem.


I'm having KPs on a daily basis now. Latest one was just a few minutes ago. And sometimes I'm doing the simplest of things like scrolling down a freaking page on Google Chrome or swiping between spaces. I even got one just by opening freaking Microsft Word.


I think it's a software problem, I never had or even known what a KP was until 10.8.2. I'm not sure if I can wait for 10.8.3 to see if the problem is fixed, I studying Informatics on College, I need my machine running fine, not crashing in the middle of design/video project or even when I'm programming.

You have all of these non-Apple kext's loaded:

com.delantis.kext.tcpblocknke 2.2.6


...and any one of them could be causing your kernel panics. I would definitely remove the nvidia driver first - you don't need it as Apple supplies all of the necessary video drivers that you need. But I would try removing the lot of them - placing them in a folder on your Desktop, maybe - and restart without them and see if you still have the kp's. If not, you'll know that it's one or all. You can load them back in one by one until you have the culprit. I know that the nvidia kext causing many kernel panics.

Thank you for your suggestion Clinton.


I have had kernel panics without the vmware kexts loaded so I know that one isn't the culprit. I've also had them without the CUDA driver so that isn't it either, but since I've had more KPs in a shorter time since I have it, I removed it and also removed tcpblocknke. Not taking down tuxera for now (I'm needing it right now for a project that is due later today).


At least for now I might be able to find out if tcpblocknke is the culprit....

Dec 19, 2012 5:18 PM in response to domtran

Well I know tcpblocknke isn't the culprit (got KP a few minutes ago), forgot to check if tuxera was there but I think it wasn't, have to double check on that the next time I get a KP. I have little doubts that it is a 10.8.2 issue with my machine, I had no KPs until this version (I actually only learned what they were when I googled after I had one) and Apple Hardware Test and MemTest show no problems found.


Still, I'm hoping to get a KP with no "foreign" kexts loaded so I can rule that out for sure.

Dec 21, 2012 3:06 PM in response to domtran

Hi there,


I had the same symptoms as TS4088 described. Opening things such as Skype's WebCam on a call would randomly crash.


So, I went to a Apple Reseller yesterday, they said they'll run tests on it. This afternoon, they called in and said that VST failed, and they're now ordering the Logic Board in and doing a replacement free of charge.


Thanks for all the info this thread provided. I don't think the reseller ever had this problem before.


I'll do a followup when the system returns.

Jan 3, 2013 5:44 AM in response to Grant Bennet-Alder

I was getting the same symptons after updating my mid-2010 MBP to Mountain Lion, kernel panics raleted to the NVidia card when running Chrome, screen sharing or plugging an external monitor in. It was all vanillia ML, no third party kernel extensions. So I booked it in at my local Apple Store, they tested the hardware and it all passed. They re-installed ML and plugged a monitor in, it worked with no panic. Also ran up Chrome and it worked. So I took the machine home, happily thinking that I could now run Mountain Lion - within 5 minutes of being home I got two more crashes.


One thing I noticed is that


com.nvidia.CUDA 1.1.0


has appeared in the latest crash report - not sure how this has appeared and whether it is related to the reinstall the guy at the Apple Store did.


One thing is for sure, the crashes are now less frequent, but still way more frequent that is livable with.
