tchospy Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Hi guys, Do you know how to open a kext and see how it works ? I want to decompile the code and see if something is wrong cause my flat panel is not detected by the nvidia graphics card. It's working in hdmi out but not on the internal monitor. I think I should install xcode or some c++ IDE to start doing this. Any idea ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tchospy Posted September 5, 2014 Author Share Posted September 5, 2014 Hi and Welcome. What is a kext and how do you install and patch it? Well.. Kext is kind of driver that you are probably used to in Windows environment. So they are used to control the hardware in your machine. Patching a kext I mean to mod a driver or something like that. So..if you know something about Java, you know that it is easy to decompile a class and see what is happening. I wanted to do the same. See the source code, identify where it its referencing my card and flat panel and try to modify the code. Lots of brazilians moderators in here rsrs..

Copy the binary inside the kext to your desktop and then do file > choose executable to disassemble. Hi guys, Do you know how to open a kext and see how it works ?
