Hi, I have very big problem with using Mac OS X. While I'm using it I can't render the movies or graphics due to invalid configuration of Graphics Card. Can anyone tell me why I have this problem?

Boot flags: -v -f npci=0x3000 dart=0 debug=8 ahcidisk=1 GraphicsEnabler=No kext-dev-mode=1 nvda_drv=1

I'm using Chameleon with this config and D-Sub (Male) port on Graphics Card..

I will follow this thread with interest while i plan to buy such an GT 730 card. I also use chameleon and an VGA (TFT) monitor.

Could you better check explain what the prob is?

Do you have OpenGL working (check with OpenGL Extensions Viewer, free) - shows you if using software Apple (= no HW OpenGL) or real OpenGL.

Do you have 2D Accelleration? ( moving window is very laggy = no)

What shows Systemprofiler for the gpu?

What GPU kext ore used (loaded)? check with kextload in terminal.

 

What happens if you enable chameleon graphicsenabler (also remove SkipNvidiaGFX key of course in the config!)

I use Clover and this DSDT patch :

                    }
                }

My Gainward GT730 1Gb works fine with full QE/CI & HDMI audio with that patch and InjectNivida=true or false (true only works with latest versions of Clover, otherwise I get a black screen).

 

But I have to use webdrivers even if it's a Kepler card and that it shouldn't needs them… I don't know if it comes from the card model in itself (looks like it's a weird one according to GPU-Z) or if it's mandatory for all 730 models :wacko::blink:

 

But it works and that's all I ask :D !
