Mrx33,

I'm thinking of buying a card with this chipset. May I ask, which brand you are using? Are both dvi heads working?

Thanks

Try this installation method:
(Alternate download location: www.onetimesales.com/drivers/macosx)
Download NVIDIA_9000_Series_Driver_v2.zip and NVDarwin 1.2.3 before installing the video card. Your system may not boot up correctly after installing Leopard 10.5.5, but you can boot up with safe mode switch (-x) to bypass it. When you have Mac OSX loaded successfully, just run the installation from NVIDIA_9000_Series_Driver_v2.zip first. After rebooting, install NVDarwin 1.2.3 next. Reboot the system again, you should have Geforce 9000 with full resolution and QE feature.

Mrx33 you are the man!!!  By the way, my card is an Evga 9500 GT.  Started with a clean install of iDeneb 10.5.5, followed Mrx33's instructions and its finally working!! Never thought it would work on a 680i mobo.

[Sendman]

I will test your install.
I post the result after this.

Thank

thanks a lot pal
but I made some modification to get the system profiler read correctly as NVIDIA GeForce 9500 GT, which is after I installed NVIDIA_9000_Series_Driver_v2, I continue with the gfxutil method here http://forum.netkas....php?topic=222.0 so I can use EFI strings.

Working with a

GeForce 9500 GT 512 MB DDR2

THANK YOU =)))

How can I boot ideneb without NVdarwin e natit support? After I installed it won't boot.

I tried -x or -x -v and even with "Graphics Mode"="1024x768x32" it hangs after NVdarwin and natit drivers load...

Can someone help me, please?

Solved in this way: http://forum.insanel...amp;mode=linear

Now I need a nvidia 9500gt driver, because my ideneb starts only in safe mode... any help, please?

[marionez]

I don't know what's wrong, but the forum search engine is broken!
I tried searching 9500GT but I receive this: http://forum.insanel...t...rch&CODE=01

Anyway I solved with this: http://forum.insanel...howtopic=137033
Then this (solution 2): http://forum.insanel...mp;#entry949684

NVdarwin.kext must be installed alone, not with the whole NVdarwin installation suite.

Now video card seems working, I don't know how to test it properly, anyway I've got hi resolution and good graphic speed.

Is anyone able to upload this file to another file sharing site or attach it or something?

The first link is dead, and the second one gives me this message "We are sorry, but all downloading slots for your country are busy."

So the fun never ends.

[MacNutty]

Will it work for Nvidia 9400 GT 512 MB?

[marionez]

I can't know that... I think yes with the same procedure as 9500GT, with the second solution I linked.

I added device id, changed the NVCAP and swapped the display connectors in NVinject.kext. You can too try with your device id and NVCAP.

I tried the same for my card but it won't enable the QI.
I tried even with the nvdarwin 1.2.5 inserting the NVCAP but there's no way...

NVCAP Maker says:
0400000000000300040000000000000700000000

my card id is 0x064010de
Peak (Nvidia) 9500GT 1GB

If someone want to try to do some kext I would test it

[marionez]

OK I got it.

Update to 10.5.6 then without any injector, I entered the device id in the new nVidia Driver (NVDANV50Hal.kext/ NVDAResman.kext/)updated with 10.5.6, added the EFI string to boot.pl with osxtools giving the NVCAP string.

Now it's harware accelerated with QE enabled
