Under 10.5.5
1. Download kexts by Rumblpak

http://rapidshare.com/files/154407076/Extensions.tgz.html

2. Add your device id in info.plist of downloaded NVDANV50Hal.kext:

Open info.plist, find

<key>IOPCIPrimaryMatch</key>
<string>
0x00f010de&amp;0xfff0ffff
0x019010de&amp;0xfff0ffff
0x040010de&amp;0xfff0ffff
0x042010de&amp;0xfff0ffff
0x06e010de&amp;0xfff0ffff
0x060010de&amp;0xffe0ffff
0x062010de&amp;0xffe0ffff
0x064010de&amp;0xffe0ffff
0x086010de&amp;0xffe0ffff
</string>

Just change above to

<key>IOPCIPrimaryMatch</key>
<string>0x[your dev id]10de</string>

EX: my 9600gt has dev id 0622, so mine is

<key>IOPCIPrimaryMatch</key>
<string>0x062210de</string>

Save the plist.

3.Use kext helper to replace AppleGraphicsControl.kext, IOGraphicsFamily.kext, all kexts with Geforce and NVDAXXXHal, NVDAResman.kext.


4. Use gfx EFI strings guide to add your efi string in boot plist:

http://forum.netkas.org/index.php?topic=222.0

Osx86tool is suggested for an easy EFI string making: http://osx86tools.googlecode.com/files/OSX...ols_1.0.150.zip

If you have NVInjector.kext NVkush.kext Natit.kext Titan.kext, you should delete them.


Reboot and cross fingers:)

Mine is working fine, I'm also an AMD user with NVidia chipset.

plz make screenshots of this app (second tab and benchmark)
http://www.realtech-vr.com/glview/download.html

Where did you get the kexts? And what in.plist do you use?
Are you using 9600GT or 9600M GT?

i have an 9800m gts any way to get this working?

sorry, my first thing after installed the driver is benchmark opengl, but I forgot to post the screenshot

upload files plz

kext by Rumblpak

gfx EFI strings guide:

9600m gt should be working.

did u add ur devid into those kexts? if yes, which kext?

Oh, I forget to mention that I change info.plist in NVDANV50Hal.kext to contain my device id

can you post a screenshot of the second tab of opengl extensions ?the one that says 9600 GT opengl engine

It's looks like a bad joke ...

Can anyone confirm?

nah this isn't a joke, i'm not surprised it works. GO try it yourself you 9600 users.

I just wanna see a screenshot to see the 9600 GT specs (opengl 3 should be 30%) that's all i believe him.

Well I'm trying to get OS X installed on my desktop now (I have a MacBook for OS X now days) and I'll test it later today, if I can get this booting.

I got kernel panic, something about not being able to find ACPI... Is this supposed to go on 10.5.5? I tried with kaly 10.5.2.

Just got a KP by just copying extensions folder over. Can the OP write a full step by step guide?

The new kexts should only work in 10.5.5; however, seeing as how my new motherboard refuses to let me boot off an external hd I have no way of testing. I'm attempting at shrinking my D drive enough to do an install but no promises when that may be.

Hi guys, don't just copy all the extensions blindly. I'm a 9600gt user, so i just copy AppleGraphicsControl.kext, IOGraphicsFamily.kext, all kexts with Geforce and NVDAXXX.
I havent compare them with old ones, I think some of them are not necessary. And I use kext helper for those permission things.
Dont mess with other kexts especially acpi, that's gonna hurt!

I just got too exited to get it working, so my first post is not very clear, sorry my bad!

I'm not with my hackintosh now, I will post the screenshot later.

I'm very surprised that even gpu fan got controlled by the driver, just like in windows. When with no drivers, my gpu fan is forced at full throttle, and make a horrible noise.

When you are able to can you please write a full guide on how to do this, if you could include screenshots it would be great. I presume there are a few people with this card that would love to have it properly supported.

Thank you!

My 9600m gt just cannot use qe/ci anyway. don't know why.

RaidenII

So you got the right EFI string and leopard recognize your video card correctly?

You can see if NVDANV50Hal.kext is loaded in about this mac-> more-> software->extentions

Hi can anyone confirm this to be working???
will it work with the a retail install??

Just got some funky error, probably caused by the way I put the device id in, is there any guide on how to do that around?

haydio

find info.plist from NVDANV50Hal.kext, and find
<key>IOPCIPrimaryMatch</key>
<string>
0x00f010de&amp;0xfff0ffff
0x019010de&amp;0xfff0ffff
0x040010de&amp;0xfff0ffff
0x042010de&amp;0xfff0ffff
0x06e010de&amp;0xfff0ffff
0x060010de&amp;0xffe0ffff
0x062010de&amp;0xffe0ffff
0x064010de&amp;0xffe0ffff
0x086010de&amp;0xffe0ffff
</string>
Just change above to
<key>IOPCIPrimaryMatch</key>
<string>0x[your dev id]10de</string>

EX: my 9600gt has dev id 0622, so mine is
<key>IOPCIPrimaryMatch</key>
<string>0x062210de</string>

after that, you should repair permission and remake kext cache, so I suggest you first edit the plist of Rumblpak's NVDANV50Hal.kext, then use kext helper to put the kexts in.

Agh, frozen on something about Boot-cache avoidance. Error pic here

Because we are using the same card, I can tell because our dev ids are the same, are you able to send me all the modified kexts and your boot.plist? or upload it for everyone to use (or that against these forums rules? I forget.)

Anyway I would really love to be one of the first to be able to have a 9600gt fully working under OSX86

is this working now with every g94? also 9800m?

generalmilk, your kexts from new update for new macbooks brings supoprt for many new videocards ?

no, not from apple's website.




How did you install those kexts? you'd better do it with kext helper, or you have to repair permission and rebuild kext cache. you also need to delete all the NVInjector NVKush Natit Titan kexts.
I can give you my boot.plist, but I'm not sure it will work on your machine.

Yeah I installed using kext helper, just re imaging my OS X partition now. Is it possible for you to write a guide because I'm guessing I've missed a vital step.

Cheers

generalmilk, show here similar of screenshot, plz:



(Only dont use Photoshop )

I am extremely interested on seeing feedback by testers of this drivers, including list of compatible models in osx86 forum.. cheers

I uploaded some required screenshots

I think I've got the right string. NVDANVHal50 is loaded.

Hello ,
I tried to install the kext , but it seems that I have no Material acceleration .... ,
I have the same id as you , the kext is loaded , the EFI string seems good , ...
I don't know why ...

Ths only difference I have is :
In Graphics/Display
NVIDIA GeForce 9600GT:

Chipset Model: NVIDIA GeForce 9600GT
Type: Display
Bus: PCIe
PCIe Lane Width: x16
VRAM (Total): 512 MB
Vendor: NVIDIA (0x10de)
Device ID: 0x0622
Revision ID: 0x00a1
ROM Revision: v1.0
Displays:
LE22A3:
Resolution: 1680 x 1050 @ 60 Hz
Depth: 32-bit Color
Core Image: Software
Main Display: Yes
Mirror: Off
Online: Yes
Quartz Extreme: Not Supported
Display Connector:
Status: No display connected


Maybe because AppleGraphic is loaded :s

looks like you two have the same problem, I dont know why. make sure all the GeforceXXX.bundles are replaced

I replaced all of this

We both have 512m vram... is that the problem?

congrats generalmilk. To TNW, try to repair permissions and boot in -f.

It isn't that problem , I thinking to an apple kext which wouldn't be loaded.

can it works with kalyway 10.5.2

no, I have 512vram too...

Can you give us your Graphics hex string ?

And here is my ioreg

Only on 10.5.5 ???
Does it work under 10.5.4 ???

not sure if it'll work with 10.5.2... I just tried to replace all the kext in 10.5.4... I repaired the permissions, rebooted...and it just wouldn't boot anymore... (stuck on the gray apple)... I tried booting with -v no sure what the problem was but it hanged pretty early....

will try to re-install with a 10.5.5 dvd see if I get the same result..

(I have a 9600GT)...

I just made an installer for the NVIDIA 9 Series Drivers taken from the new Macbookpro Update. Download it here:

http://rapidshare.com/files/155562098/NVID...rivers.zip.html

My 9800 GTX now uses the correct Open GL Engine.



10.5.5 minimum requirement I would think.

Would this work with 9800m GTS?

Thanks

Many many many thanks, generalmilk!!!!
All completely works with Natit, NVKush and strings.



BIG THANKS.

Alega: Nice to see someone with the same card as me is having success! Are you on 10.5.5 or 10.5.4 ?? Still not sure if its worth trying on 10.5.4

Alega:
How did you fix your problem ?

At me 10.5.4 original +Update 10.5.5
