Hi

I have a geforce nvidia 7600gt agp card running in leo4allv4.1. Without changing anything else i copied the graphics extensions from kalyway 10.5.2 (geforce**.kext and nv**.kext all of them) to my extensions folder to enable qe ci. But when i try to update my OS X version i always get this kernel panic attached. I have enabled qe ci with either nvinject or nvkush or efi strings. All ways when i update give me this panic. Im having voodoo kernel v1. If anyone knows pls help :D .Thx a lot.

 

 

EDIT : Forgot to say i couldnt install leo4allv4.1 with nvidia kexts and nvinject ( i was getting the known apple message "you have to restart the computer press the power button etc" so i installed it without the graphics driver.

Try NVDarwin.

 

Thx

I tried nvdarwin with the same kalyway kexts ( got qe ci) and when i update i got the same panic.

There must be something wrong with the geforce.kext and the nvdaresman.kext but i dont know what because my gfx works with qe and ci just fine.

Also the graphics kexts from other distributions dont work with my card. Only the ones from kalyway 10.5.2.

are you updating with combo or from software update

i had the similar problem when using combo

try updating one by one

 

I tried both by software update and downloading each package and install ( eg from 10.5.4 downloaded 10.5.5 update and installed). Both ways same prob.

Well i also realised that when i dont have qe and ci by my gfx (but i can change resolutions) in safari and almost every browser when i watch videos my cpu is used from 45% to 70%! But thats the same percentage even when i have qe ci! Isnt the gfx card suppossed to help run visual content like the videos in vlc,quicktime etc? Or are they cpu's job?
