With nvinject 0.21 or 0.22 I'm unable to get hardware acceleration from my G80 nvidia 8800 GTX...

I've tried screwing around with NVCAP... but I don't think thats the problem...

All i can get in the System profiler for graphics is:

 

  Displays:
Display:
 Resolution:	1280 x 1024
 Depth:	32-bit Color
 Core Image:	Software
 Main Display:	Yes
 Mirror:	Off
 Online:	Yes
 Quartz Extreme:	Not Supported
Display Connector:

 

Help me ...

I just installed the Leopard graphics update... kernel panicked right away, now I'm booting with -x flag and the resolution does work, but I can't do a regular boot.. I don't even see it trying to load nvinject, its complaining about NVResman.kext and GeForce kexts.. which are in the /System/Library/Extensions... should I remove these files?

 

Here's a screenshot:

It works with Geforce.kext removed.. now I have the correct resolution, nvinject 0.2.2 is installed, the VRAM,totalisize is set, but i STILL cannot get Quartz Extreme or the Core Image to be Hardware Accelerated

What could I be missing now?

 

Edit: I just did a dmsg, and noticed this:

 

display: family specific matching fails

 

not sure if that could be the reason why it's not working... thought i'd include that here anyway

***** SOLVED *****

 

So the problem was that Geforce.kext was causing the kernel panic...

Can boot without it.. but that results in no Quartz Extreme, and no Hardware acceleration

 

I spent a good week and a half raping the system and tried everything... I finally fixed the problem by editing 3 kexts:

 

NVDANV50Hal.kext

GeForce.kext

NVinject.kext

 

I made sure that the Device ID's in ALL 3 kexts were exactly the same.. and then set the IOProbeScore to 0
