So I was trying to get some drivers for my new graphix card and I found this

 

 

 

 

My GF 9500M GS card works Fine with Nvinstaler v52 (QE/CI)

 

http://scottdangel.com/blog/?page_id=20

 

It works in Leo 10.5.1-10.5.4 but it dont works in Leo 10.5.5

 

 

long story short. I installed that and now I cant even get in safe mode. I can use the terminal thing on startup though by typing "-s"

 

I know that if I find out what the program name is then I can uninstall it by typing "rm filename" but I dont know what the actual file is named or what the location of the file is.

 

so Im wondering how do I fix this or what is the file name and the location of the file that I installed?

 

-Thanks

type in -s

 

cd /System/Library/Extensions
ls

then, look for something like nvinject.kext

if its there, type

rm -R nvinject.kext
cd ..
rm -r Extensions.mkext
touch Extensions
reboot

 

after it restarts, start with -v -f, and use efistudio to crate GFX strings

First of all Thank You for replying to my message.

 

okay so this is what happened.

 

It shows the list after I type

 

cd /System/Library/Extensions
ls

 

NVinject.kext shows up under it.

 

Next I typed

 

rm -R nvinject.kext

 

Then it says

 

override rwxr-xr-x root/wheel for nvinject.kext/contents/Info.plist?

 

Then if I type "Y" it says "Read-Only file system"

 

and then it says another thing like override rwxr-xr-x root/ ect. (btw its asking a different thing each time)

 

and I continue to type "Y" and the same thing happens.

 

after doing that a couple times it finishes

 

If I continue and type "cd" it says

 

-sh: cd: HOME not set

 

Then if I type

rm -r Extensions.mkext

 

it says

 

"No such file or directory"

 

I think all I really need help with Is back where it says "Read-Only file system" because I don't think it is deleting the file.

 

-Thank you again
