I have just bought a Radeon X300SE, now i can only use vmware at the moment.

I know its supposed to support QE etc.

 

Now am i being stupid, can you use QE in vmware

In graphics card info it says no kext loaded, how do i load it, in english, PLAIN and simple

Could this cause problems native booting, it boots but no gui.

 

Sempron 3000+

Nforce 4 Board

Dude, I'm pretty sure that VMware creates a virtual machine... and that means a virtual video card, too. So it doesn't matter what your real video card is; all you get under VMware is a VESA 3.0 compatible display. No sense trying to get OS X to recognize your ATI card, because it can't "see" the ATI card (unless you run native).

 

So, no QE under VMware, period. p.s.: VMware extensions can be installed on more conventional x86 operating systems (Win, linux, OS/2) that include specific drivers for the virtual graphics system, including limited acceleration... it would be sweet if they released a similar package for OS x86, but don't count on it.
