quetzalcoatl2435 Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 So in other words users of g84 and g92 are screwed unless apple accidentally fixes it. Well, guess i'm in the market for a new graphics card. @sg: Yeah i fixed it using an earlier build of 7.5.5. It appears the only fixes are what you and i did or using 10.5.5 graphics kexts. I think cyclonefr has a thread about it. Well, there is still the possibility of hacked drivers incompatibility... There are reports of some 8600GT users experiencing no problems. Have you tried using other drivers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tokra128 Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 Dammit, It must be a fix .. to buy a new videocard ? no money ! also, no machines with the old build 7.5.5, so , maybe can pm me with the player Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InteliMac Pro Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 Well, there is still the possibility of hacked drivers incompatibility...There are reports of some 8600GT users experiencing no problems. Have you tried using other drivers? It was happening with NVKush, but now i'm using graphics strings and it was still happening. Dammit, It must be a fix .. to buy a new videocard ? no money ! also, no machines with the old build 7.5.5, so , maybe can pm me with the player Unfortunately the link i used to install the earlier build of 7.5.5 has been updated to 7.6, so I don't know where to find it now. I don't know what part of 7.6 is causing the problem. If somebody knew maybe they could post the older versions of the files and you could install them using pacifist. The other way to fix it is to use the graphics kexts from 10.5.5. I'd suggest following this thread by cyclonefr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sg Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 Its only the QuickTime Player application that is causing the issues, if you quit the app the rest of the OS fine as well as other apps that use QT. You can fix this by simply using the 7.5 QT Player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adamsweeting Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 I never had a problem with 7.5 (no mouse lag), but got mouse lag with 7.6 (I'm using EFI strings) Just took the 7.5 app from a backup, and seems to have fixed it as others have mentioned.

quetzalcoatl2435 Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 I've just been browsing through Apple's specs, and it seems that they use 8800GTs with G92 chips. They only list an 8800GT with 512MB, while the G80 only has options for 320MB/640MB (AFAIK). Could it be graphics-related settings in the BIOS?

tokra128 Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 Possibly, since I use a G92 with 512 mb of ram .. and with 7.5.5 I have no lag, but with 7.6 I do ... !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stellarola Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 Does anyone know for a fact that the 8800GT on real Mac Pros don't have issues? We've all heard from someone who heard from someone. I'd prefer to hear it directly from them. -Stell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tokra128 Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 It will be great to see realmacs with this problem , nbecause we will see a fix then, if no ..... we are doomed .. btw ..

We've all heard from someone who heard from someone. I'd prefer to hear it directly from them. -Stell Try googling for this problem. The only relevant hits I could find points back to this forum. None at Apple's own forums. Actually, there are problems, but not related to mouse lags using nVidia cards. I agree with you about the part of hearing from first-hand Mac Pro accounts, though... It will be great to see realmacs with this problem , nbecause we will see a fix then, if no ..... we are doomed .. btw .. What new videocard is working 100% with no problem ? something more powerfull that 8800, because I will no go to a lover card .. My ATi Radeon 3870 works perfectly. It should be at least on par with 8800GT, if not better, and isn't that expensive anymore, after the release of the 4xxx series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneSman7 Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 Download and put in System/Library/QuickTime with replacing. It is quicktime library that causes lag since some build of version 7.5.5. This component was taken from the last build of ver. 7.5.5 without lags. They are caused by some function that looks for new nvidia chipset in new macbooks, but on hacks it seems to hang. As it tries to look for it again the system hangs for a moment. Info taken from Apple forums where one of macpros owners posted a thread about it. http://stream.ifolder.ru/10179649 Enter the code then press "Скачать" and again press it on the second page.

cyclonefr Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 stellarolla, you can believe me, I asked a friend with a Mac Pro 8800 GT, MBP 8600M GT and MBP 9600 and they don't have the lag at all... You can clearly see quickly just by running quicktime player, the icon in the dock bounces with a small lag and isn't smooth... Real macs dont have the issue.
