naton Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 I've read over a hundred of posts mainly in this forum and to be honest I'm getting nowhere. My laptop specs are on my signature. I used iAtkos L2 (10.7.2). The keyboard and touchpad work perfectly. The webcam and the USBs work too. The sound works but the volume is set to high even when I turn it down using the sound icon. Also the VoodooHDA preference panel is missing. I tired with VoodooHDA 2.6.2, 2.7.2, and 2.7.3. Aside from getting the kexts for the graphics cards to load, I'm not yet concerned about the other devices. I mean let's face it, there is no much point having a hackintosh if QE/CI don't work. I've tried every trick suggested to make my Intel x3100 (2A12) work and I failed. I tried a/ll of the following: 1. Not knowing that there are two types of Intel x3100, the 2A02 and the 2A12, I tried these kexts which I've tested on another laptop and they work well on the 2A02. http://www.osx86.net/view/1673-x3100_gma965_lion_10.7.0.1.2.3.html Basically all the kexts in the above link are from Lion 10.7.0 except for 'AppleIntelGMAX3100FB.kext' which is from Snow Leopard 10.6.8. This didn't work with the HP 610. 2. I used an 'AppleIntelGMAX3100FB.kext' from Snow 10.5.8 that was patched to support 2A12. I found it in this forum. This kext loaded. The screen was much brighter than before but it was split into 12 sections. Each section represents an instance of a desktop. 3. I used the 2A12patcher. Mac didn't give me a kernel panic but It froze before reaching the desktop. Amongst the displayed text I noticed that Mac was complained about the fact that the AppleIntelFrameBuffer class was already loaded and thus it could not be loaded again from the AppleIntelFramBuffer.kext file. 4. After 3 days of reading about what other have done, I decided to patch the kexts, install them and see how it goes. I used the kext from Lion 10.7.0 as a starting point. I patched the info.plist files inside AppleIntelGMAX3100.kext and AppleIntelGMAX3100FB.kext. I also used a HEX editor and patched the binary files inside these kexts. Basically I replaced every instance of 2A02 with 2A12. Nothing happened when I installed these patched kexts. 5. After doing the above I went ahead and patched AppleIntelGMAX3100FB.kext for Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and install it. This time the screen was split into 4 with every section containing an instance of the desktop. Rebooting with the flag "GraphicsEnabler=No" fixed the split on the screen but I still do not have QE/CI. What else I can try to get the Intel X3100 (2A12) to work properly?
