BlueWeasel Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 Thanks to these forums and several good guides for the XPS M1530 laptops, I've got what appears to be a 95% working Hackintosh. Got my Vanilla SL up and going and upgraded to 10.6.4. Dell M1530 laptop C2D 2.5Ghz 8400GS 128MB dedicated graphics 4GB RAM 500GB HD Spent a ton of time on it this past weekend. Did some bad things, had to reinstall 4 times, but learned a lot in the process (this is my first Mac experience). While it's not much, I'm proud to just be at this point. Got 2 problems that are probably easy to solve, but I can't figure them out. 1) No trackpad options in System Preferences. There is no icon for the trackpad. The basic trackpad functions work, but it's way too fast. According to the ALPS trackpad guides, I need to edit info.plist that is in the Trackpad.prefpane file under S/L/PreferencePanes. How do I do that? I can open it using TextEdit, but can't save it. 2) How do I confirm that both cores are active? When I click on "About this Mac" it shows the right CPU, but says I only have 1 core. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
