I bought an asus motherboard p8p67 m pro with XFX ATI 6870 video card processor i5 2400 16 GB of ram corsair vengeance low profile and 2 disks WD Caviar Green 2 TB sataIII ... able to install 10.6.7 with your method but the video card does not work, I tell you this, why not let me use the resolution 1920 x 1080 which is my monitor I have. apart this afternoon I managed to install the LION with the method of tonymac and there they gave me the resolution of 1920 x 1080 perp lion I can not use since I use an audio editor called PRO TOOLS 9 which is not at all compatible with LION. I appreciate the great support you are giving in several communities with your method and expect an answer to my problem ... Health and great fortune to you!!

The 6870 should work fine with 10.6.8 - if you absolutely have to use 10.6.7 then you will need to install a driver package that I put together some time back to install the newer mbp ati drivers http://www.mediafire...r52bv1otbovc9ci

For best results you should also use a recent version of chameleon with graphicsenabler set to yes

You wont have sound or ethernet because your board uses different devices to the p8p67 pro - you will need to search the forums for your answers

If you are using dvi->vga then you will need to use a different framebuffer - try Ipomoea

My card has only 2 DVI output and the input of my monitors are VGA so i use 2 DVI to VGA Adapters. where I configure the framebuffer thanks for your patience ANDY!

Try AtiConfig=Elodea as a bootflag

I seriously dont think you are going to get both dvi ports working though.

Hi ^Andy^, I'm proudly user of SL 10.6.8 on my P8P67 Pro B3 3.0 version + i5-2500K. ¡¡ Lot of Thanks !!

My girlfriend just gift me the Magic Trackpad, and I'm having some issues to make it work.

I think that is recognized as a Mighty Mouse, and i cant use any multi-gesture, even two fingers scroll, or 1 touck to click, 2 fingers touch to alt-click...

Anyone is having same issues with MagicTrackpad or MagicMouse via integrated Bluetooth ???

Is there any solution to make it work right?

Thanks in advance and sorry for my bad english.

yes i bought a cheap blue tooth dongle and now works perfect

Trying to install on ASUS P8P67 EVO.

I assume the DVDRW (ASUS DRW-24B3ST) drivers are not on the boot CD because Chameleon Bootloader will not load and I get error : MSCD001.

If I change the boot device to my USB Sony DVDRW (DVD RW DRU-700A VY04) then Chameleon Bootloader loads (all DOS) with the final command prompt: [DR-D05] A:\>

This is as far as I can get.

I have restored BIOS to default settings, and SATA is indeed AHCI.

What do I need to do???

If you have run a version update since installing the package then yes you will need to run the package again after installing it.
