sheeplover Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 I use to work on calibrated screens - for this I use an i1 Pro from Gretamacbeth and ColorEyes Display Pro. Since I installed my new 9800GTX+ as well as the new NVidia kext from the new MacBooks I get a kernel panic each time I open up the ColorEyes Software or the LUTloader.app. Something similar happens when trying to use ColorVision or i1 Match - they terminate without giving me any reason. Is there anybody else out there who has a 9800GTX or GTX+ and can test this? === UPDATE === Changed the card back to my 7300GT and calibration works normal. No kernel panics, no program freeze .. everything just fine. Also with a 9800GTX from a different brand it crashes. Does this happen because of the new NVidia kexts or perhaps because of the cards different LUA-table?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omann Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 I just installed a ECS Elitegroup 9800GFX in my badaxe2.

Did you repair permissions after install? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denicio Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 Calibration wasn't working for me either, but then i switched from my VGA port to the DVi port and it suddenly worked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheeplover Posted November 7, 2008 Author Share Posted November 7, 2008 The calibration with the Spyder Software now works for me - but the results with it are far from good. ColorEyes Display Pro still crashes immediately with a kernel panic... - edit - forgot to mention: I did repair rights on the kexts and my card has no VGA-port to switch to. I can leave EFI-string as is and just put my 7300gt in the slot and calibration works. I think this might be something hardware-related with the 9800gtx+ cards oO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
