Hi all.

 

I have installed NVinject 0.2.1.

My card is - GeForce 7300 GT 256 MB.

 

OpenGL is working, but i have a only Black, or fully transparent Menus without entries.

Some graphics effects is looking damaged (like when drag-and-drop widgets on dash-board, i see dirt-flicker-area instead of waves around widgets )

 

1. glxgears is work and show me 25233 frames in 5.0 seconds = 5046.600 FPS

2. glxinfo show me a lot`s of information about GLX extensions and other, include support of GL_ARB_multitexture, and other:

OpenGL vendor string: NVIDIA Corporation

OpenGL renderer string: NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT OpenGL Engine

OpenGL version string: 2.0 NVIDIA-1.5.16

 

3. I work on widescreen monitor in 1440x900x75 Hz. (of course i try to change it, include bit`s of color-depth, but menus is any cases is black or transparent)

Hm.

This my steps:

 

1. I install Kaliway 10.5.2

2. Download latest NVinject.kext (0.2.1)

3. do chmod and chown with it, then copy in /System/Library/Extensions/

4. open all Info.plist files and replace ID-s with my GeForce 7300 device ID - 0393

5. remove all caches. remove Extensions.mkext file

6. Reboot, of cource, and wait.

7. I see nice grey screen with apple, then grey screen is off. Then i see black screen. Wait.

8. Wait and wait. Black screen anyway.

9. Power off.

 

~~~

1. boot with -s, remove NVinject.kext. Logout. Graphics is on, but, of course, without OpenGL.

2. Then install NVinject 0.2.0 - reboot - black screen. Install NVinject 0.1.3 - reboot - black screen.

~~~

1. Only files from "leonvidia" work, but after removing GeForce7***.kext.

 

I think, my methods is - vivisection. Someone have direct solution for hardware configuration like main?

GeForce 7300 GT 256 Mb.

ASUS P5B Motherboard

Leopard 10.5.2 by Kaliway.

 

Solutions please.. ?

peach-os, thanks for you reply..

 

can you post the some link, or torrent, or something information, where i can find the "Kaliway without new patches" ?

 

And, i think, i need from there only OpenGL framework, NV and GeForce kexts. Where i can read about ? How named this build?

~~~

Or my installation have modified kernel? This is the problem?

 

>> didn´t you try kalyway without new patches? with my 7300gt it worked out of the box.

 

Of course.. Try many many times. Copy and Then repair. I really don`t know what wrong.

GeForce 7300 is not extremely new card. I have GeForce 8600 GTS - on my job-computer. This card work nice and without problems. On home-station GF 7300 - real pain now.

I meant kalyway 10.5.2 as it is with the right selection for the 7300 - without adding any patches afterwards :D

 

Thanks for answer peach-os

 

When i install without any new patches, i have 1024x768 resolution and no OpenGL acceleration. Of course, desktop, graphics work. All good with menus. But no acceleration. I need MacOsX for some graphics work. And openGL is really needed.

 

Buying new graphics card - not for me. In my Linux this card work excellent.

~~~

Now i search, what i can do with NVDANV40Hal.kext. I sure - my solution is there.

 

Sorry for my "great" english ;)

Im having big issues getting my 7300gt to install

 

I've tried Natit, NVinject, NVdarwin - all install and give me QE/CI, but mouse is severly lagged, like 20secs. I've tried via EFI strings and that just gets me a black screen with mouse pointer, also lagged

 

I dont know what else to do

 

Heres a panic I got when I got when it was the blackscreen

Ive tried 10.5.6 installs of xXx, iPC and 1.5.x of iDeneb. Nothing will work for me! Grr

 

 

 

Any suggestions?
