Hi Folks,

after updating my eeePC 901 to 10.5.8, I had the usual problems with the Graphics. Only
1024x768 resolution and no hardware support for QE/CI.

The kexts from eeeutilities didn't work for me with 10.5.8.
AppleIntelIntegratedFrameBuffer.kext from eeeutilities, without
AppleIntelGMA950.kext did work (Resolution ok, but no QE/CI)

I did create a patched Version from the 10.5.8 kexts by replacing
all occourences of 80 86 a2 27 with 80 86 ae 27. So far, they work fine
for me after the usual install procedure with chmod -R 755, chown -R root:wheel,
delete /System/Library/Extensions.mkext, reboot, F8, -v -f.

A HexEditor for modifying the kext can be found here:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/hexedit/fi...20.dmg/download

Have fun,

Stephan

Hello.
I have your same problem ...
Which kext did you change?

I modified AppleIntelGMA950.kext and AppleIntelIntergratedFramebuffer.kext.

I do believe that you need to modify Info.plist in the kexts as well. I did and it probably helped.

Ohh and the hex is 86 80 A2 27 changed to 86 80 AE 27.

I currently have a 1000HA running OS X 10.5.8 . I too had issues with the resolution stuck at 800x600. I followed the modification to both the AppleIntelIntegratedFrameBuffer.kext , and AppleIntelGMA950.kext, with no success.

But when combined with Natit.kext and ClamshellDisplay.kext from the Eee Utilities, l got full hardware support including QE/CI running at 1024 x 600. Big thanks to Sparc4 for the information he has provided. And l hope this info helps others.

Hello and thank you to all for trying to help for this problem.

My config. and try :
- EEEPC 1000H
- 2 GO RAM
- iAktos 10.5.7 (new install)
-> resolution 800 x 600
-> with files : AppleIntelGMA950.kext + AppleIntelIntegratedFramebuffer.kext
found : http://ipis-osx.wikidot.com/forum/t-140358...-10-5-6-cracked
-> video driver is better but not good
-> with SwitchResX
found : http://www.madrau.com/SRX3/html/SRX/About.html
-> i could have good resolution 1024 x600

Since i made the Apple update 10.5.8, the video down to 800 x 600 again.
I reload kext from ipis-osx.wikidot.com as i did before : i had a kernel panic such this one :

So, i made a clean install 0sx 10.5.7 + Apple update 10.5.8 : still 800 x 600.
I try other kext : kernel panic !

So, i found your posts and i try to made modifications but i don't think i am doing well.
Can you help me please ?

In the first post, schnullimaus was talking about "eeeutilities", so i found them and download from :
http://eeemac.blogspot.com/2009/03/install...a-901-1000.html
-> http://www.pd.net/eeeboot/

I found the files :
AppleIntelIntegratedFrameBuffer.kext
AppleIntelGMA950.kext

I could open the packages and see the files :
info.plist
version. plist

So, why schnullimaus talk about a specify software "HexEditor" if we can open theses files with extEdit.app, search, found, replace 86 80 A2 27 for 86 80 AE 27 ?

I only see 86 80 A2 27 to change to 86 80 AE 27 one time in the file :
info.plist from AppleIntelGMA950.kext

I didn't see 86 80 A2 27 (it was already 86 80 AE 27) in files (with TextEdit.app ot HexEditor) :
version.plist from AppleIntelGMA950.kext
info.plist and version. plist from AppleIntelIntegratedFrameBuffer.kext

So, with only 1 change in 1 file info.plist from AppleIntelGMA950.kext, i try and it still didn't work.

At 1st reboot :

At 2nd reboot and after :

So, cand you help me to tell me what i did wrong or what i didn't anderstood well ?

Thank you very much for helping.

Ok well lets see here. First off this thread was for 10.5.8, but the concept should be the same for 10.5.7.

Don't just go throwing kexts at the system thinking they will work. Your best best is to get a base resolution and work with the kexts you have to get what you want. Thats what I did with my iDeneb 1.4 10.5.6 -> Apple Update 10.5.8 install. Once I got to 10.5.8 I tried things with the kexts that I had, instead of downloading and throwing kexts at it till I got what I wanted.

First off lets check some things out. The kexts have multiple files and directories in them. Yes you need to edit some info in the Info.plist. You seem to have done that. Of course the next part of actually editing in HEX is a little more time consuming and not the easiest thing to do.

First off make sure you have a backup of your unmodified kext files stored some where. Start with the AppleIntelGMA950.kext. If you "Show Package Contents" of AppleIntelGMA950.kext you will see there is a file structure there. You have found Info.plist and can edit that, thats good, but thats only part of it. You don't want to edit that with the hex editor. Info.plist is a text file and Textedit can edit that file. The file you need to edit with HexFiend is in the MacOS dir, the files name is the same as the kext (AppleIntelGMA950). This file is the actual binary driver that the kernel will load (from my understanding). This is the file that you need to open with HexFiend in order to make the changes described previously.
Do this for both the AppleIntelGMA950.kext and AppleIntergratedFrameBuffer.kext and you should be good to go. I would post my kexts, but they are for 10.5.8 and not 10.5.7. I don't think you want to introduce other issues while you are working on this one.

BTW I did this on an HP Mini 2140, so I don't know what eeeutilities is and I never used the SwitchResX since I was able to modify the 10.5.8 kexts and got what I wanted out of them.

Wow... thank you very much Sparc4 for your detailed answer

I anderstand now that I was far from all what you did with editing kext ...

In a couple of days i will try your solution and see what happens... I wil tell you



(for the moment, I reinstall again Iatkos 10.5.7 + Update 10.5.8, I am still in 800x600 but i can manage with that )

Finally, IT WORKS !!!!

BUT... i have to say that i didn't use the method described above.
I found it in an other website : http://www.osx86install.com/support/39-iat...solutions-.html

It is said :

ISSUE 02:
You got an HP530 laptop or MSI Wind with GMA950 (27AE id) and no driver from DVD gives you QE, CI and VGA monitor output.
Solution:
Firstly try this: select "GMA 950 Rare" and "GMA 950 Laptop" at the same time, if not working then,
Don´t select ANY GMA950 driver and/or EFI string on install. After you arrive to desktop, install this:
http://ul.to/0bx92c , then boot again the DVD and install ONLY the EFI string for intel.
Thanks to Marcos for testing.

They are talking about HP530 and MSI Wind... but my ASUS EEEPC1000H have also an Intel GMA950 27AE.
So, i test the method :
i download the 2 files (il 1 zip) at http://ul.to/0bx92c
installed : WindWSVGADisplay_v5.5.pkg
reboot,
installed : WindVideo_v5.5.pkg
reboot,
the system hang on a blue desktop...
reboot a 2nd time
the system hang on a blue desktop...
as described in the method, i reboot with iAtkos V7, try to install only "EFI string for intel"... but the installation failed !
i reboot (was scare to reinstall all )... and then, my desktop arrived in good resolution 1024 x 600

I forgot to tell you that BEFORE installing these drivers, i've installed OSx86 Tools to enable Quartz GL

Thank Sparc4 for all your knowledge and help ... and all for supporting to resolve this issue

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU schnullimaus!! You are my HERO!

I now have my Asus eeePC 1000H working at 1024x600 on 10.5.8! YAHOO!!!!!!

I've tried so many damn methods and none worked. In fact they sent my OS X to a blue screen with nothing on it.

Just remember, on mine the hex codes were actually 8680a227 and not 8086a227. Still.. I fixed it

Hello,

I am using a new Chinese Laptop brand, the harni X11W (www.harni.com.cn). It has an intel GMA950 27AE.
I use iATKOS 10.5.7. When choosing the intel drivers I am choosing "GMA 950 Rare" and "GMA 950 Laptop" as is advised from http://www.osx86install.com/support/39-iatkos-v7-solutions-.html. After installation sometimes it works directly after some reboots with QE/CI...sometimes it does not...
My question is how to get QE/CI consistently? Or rather why there might be 2 different results for the SAME procedure...?
Sorry for not providing a signature with my configuration...I will do it when I will have time.

Otherwise this laptop works great...it has sound, ethernet, and webcam directly supported...only atheros 5007 eg is not...

can someone pls post the modified kexts for 10.5.8? I installed ideneb 1.6 lite and can't get 1024x600. Thanks.

I'm also looking for modified kext for 10.5.8 IntelGMA950 graphic card.
Can please someone post a link to the kext?

Thanks!
