generalmilk Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 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&0xfff0ffff 0x019010de&0xfff0ffff 0x040010de&0xfff0ffff 0x042010de&0xfff0ffff 0x06e010de&0xfff0ffff 0x060010de&0xffe0ffff 0x062010de&0xffe0ffff 0x064010de&0xffe0ffff 0x086010de&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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RaidenII Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 Simply copy new kext+ EFI strings, it works like a charm.When I heard the gpu fan suddenly silent before getting into desktop I knew it's working Where did you get the kexts? And what in.plist do you use? Are you using 9600GT or 9600M GT? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyclonefr Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haydio Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Satyr Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haydio Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 Just got a KP by just copying extensions folder over. Can the OP write a full step by step guide? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rumblpak Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 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. 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
generalmilk Posted October 19, 2008 Author Share Posted October 19, 2008 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! cyclonefr 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.

haydio Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 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! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaidenII Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 My 9600m gt just cannot use qe/ci anyway. don't know why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
generalmilk Posted October 19, 2008 Author Share Posted October 19, 2008 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duffsta Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 Hi can anyone confirm this to be working??? will it work with the a retail install?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haydio Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 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? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
generalmilk Posted October 19, 2008 Author Share Posted October 19, 2008 haydio find info.plist from NVDANV50Hal.kext, and find <key>IOPCIPrimaryMatch</key> <string> 0x00f010de&0xfff0ffff 0x019010de&0xfff0ffff 0x040010de&0xfff0ffff 0x042010de&0xfff0ffff 0x06e010de&0xfff0ffff 0x060010de&0xffe0ffff 0x062010de&0xffe0ffff 0x064010de&0xffe0ffff 0x086010de&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.

haydio Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
