In the last couple of days, I was writing a Cosmetics nVidia support in Chameleon, and had a few testers, but I need to make sure it works on most supported cards.

• What cosmetics support would be? I added the recognition of the graphics cards also based on the Sub-Vendor ID and Sub-Device ID.
  
• What "COSMETICS" does this mean? It means that you... (we) can now customize the output "string" for your graphics card. Example:
  - Before¹: reading just the Device Id was...
  

  GeForce GTX 470
  

  - After¹:  reading also the Sub-VendorId and Sub-DeviceID will be
  

  Zotac GTX 470
  

  - Before²: reading just the Device Id was...
  

  GeForce GTX 470
  

  - After²: same Device ID (as for Before¹) but different Sub-VendorId & Sub-DeviceId
  

  Zotac GTX 470 AMP
  

• What happens if the Sub-Vendor and Sub-Devices are missing in the boot loader? In this case will be assigned a standard string based only on the VendorID.

First I would like to outline a few things:

• This isn't a HOW TO get your card working, this is a request for testing.
  
• Don't ask how to install the booter, how to use or add a given booter flag or how to run an update, if you don't know how to do that yourself, then this isn't for you, yet, learn that elsewhere, and you're more than welcome here.
  
• I don't take responsibility for any damage this may cause, so take your precautions before you use this.

This project will take the name of Enoch.

• This will help you. To not confuse this with Chameleon.
  
• The core sources (Booting) are the same as my ErmaC Sub-Branch(Trunk) on voodooprojects.
  
• The source code will be committed/released when I have accumulated feedback and different "Subs_ID".

Requirements:

• An NVIDIA already supported cards by Chameleon's GraphicsEnabler.

How and what to report:

• Disable any kind of enabler,DSDT injection, injector or device-properties you're currently using.
  
• Save an bdmesg dump (From terminal or from Chameleon Wizard bdmesg’s TAB).

Thanks all. Fabio (.: ErmaC:.)

I'll check it out.

Edit: it doesn't appear to be working for my 9600 GT...I'm using GraphicsEnabler with the (_UID) fix for the PCI0 device in DSDT. Do I need to remove the DSDT first?

I'll post a pic when I get a chance.

THX DarwinX.
But I need you install the Enoch bootloader
because I see it show only the Vendor and device ID

Also the "correct name for your GFX if it have one...

THX now is ok!
The name "Dell GeForce 8600M GT" should be ok?
Or "Dell GeForce Go 8600M GT"?

Chipset model name: NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT or Dell GeForce 8600M GT.
I believe that the nVidia has only used the "Go" in its GeForce 7 notebook series and had subsequently replaced it with the "M" starting with the GeForce 8 notebook series.
Thank You.

the Go versions are usually shared on mobo. these are separate discrete. .. i have a similar 8600M  10de:0407 sub 1028:01f1 (inspiron 1520)  but mine shows nv84 and it has no hdmi. unlike DarwinX

i got the id with lspci -v -n

is more fast if you post your bdmesg log...
