New SMC Firmware update broke CoreDuo Temp and speedit.kext

After installing the SMC firmware update, I can no
longer launch CoreDuo Temp or speedit.kext....
hmmm..

Anybody else experiencing this?

BTW, the SMC firmware seems to have cooled down my
computer... but I can't be sure, since I can't launch
any temperature monitoring software... 🙂
Whine is still there, and the PhotoBooth fix still
works...

Mine still works, did you repair permissions?

After the update my MBP its not even WARM anymore, im truly amazed......

I made a lengthly post elsewhere, but here is the gist:

same conditions 140-150°f before, 82-89°f after.

Very drastic.

I'm running at least 10 degrees celsius cooler. I don't know what's different other than that, but I can keep it on my lap now when I couldn't before.

Have to add my 2 cents.

Mine seems much cooler now as well the bar above the F Keys is not to bad at all. Before it was hot, not unbearable but hot. Under a full load it was uncomfortable to touch but now it does seem cooler.

Any idea of exactly what the update does? how it does it??

Anyone try this update on a 17" Macbook Pro yet? Does it work? Does it help?

It's not for the 17". The 17" is probably already current.

Word.

Mine already came with all the updates.

peace,

My Hardware/System Profiler shows:

Boot Rom Version: MBP11.0055.B02
SMC Version: 1.2f10

I did not write down these values before applying updates.

Is there some web site that shows what these values should read to make sure I am up to date ?

Thanx

Mine is:

Boot ROM Version: MBP11.0055.B03
SMC Version: 1.2f10

Well these were mine BEFORE applying the update.

Boot ROM Version: MBP11.0044.B02
Serial Number: W8610 ****
SMC Version: 1.2f7

By the way, my MBP was silent on AC power until I applied this update, now it whines on both AC and batery.

Ce sera sera !

Can anyone tell me how to uninstall CoreDuo temp? Just drag it to trash? Thanks

Just got my MBP 17" last week. Over all - sweet. No known problems, however found out about heat and whine. High pitched whine, working on getting rid of it. Interesting to say the least.

Heat - CoreDuoTemp reports 63C at 10% usage, will see about ramping that up to more usage (specInt tests or something)

Boot Rom Version MBP12.0061.B00
Serial Number: W8622xxxxxxx
SMC Version 1.5f8

No updates applied (unless unbeknowest to me) since purchase.
