Wisam Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 For anybody knows how to make Titan work like a Titan please give us step by step installation procedure. I have 6600GT on 1.4.8 Jas combo update. I want to test it against my Hackintosh. What is chown/chmod ? Please some help needed here THANK YOU OMNI !!!!!! we appreciate all your effort and work for helping the community. I think we need a forum to do the beta testing and share our findings so the development process can progress fast. I've seen previous posts and if you don't mind Omni would like to report our findings to you ? just tell us where Thanks to np_ who is working also with Omni to make this possible.

I'AM SO EXCITED!!! I think I am going mad!!! As simple as following the instructions from OMNI, plugged into /System/Library/Extensions Removed any /System/Library/Extensions.* changed owner to root:wheel and chmod to 755.... So far no tearing or glitches! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wisam Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 Are you looking to get detention mister Do your homework biggrin.gif Well, I tried my best and did my own research sudo cp -R Titan.kext /System/Library/Extension sudo kextcache -k /System/Library/Extensions I got an error message says that I don't have permission on next reboot. So I added this sudo chown -R root:wheel Titan.kext sudo chmod -R 755 Titan.kext then I rebooted. The boot hangs after loading forcedeth.kext I guess because I am using 1.4.6 Jas >> 1.4.8 Jas combo update. (AMD SSE2 what can I do!) I don't have 8.8.1 kernel but 8.4.1 So did I do something wrong or I just have to wait for Jas to release 1.4.8 AMD ppf Patch ? Any idea ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tek_No Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 What about ATI cards like mine (Radeon 9000 in laptop): anybody tried this in the mean time? I can't test this at the moment as my laptop is only SSE2 so I can't use the new kernel (yet) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

icyderguru Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 could anybody please try if dual displays are working or not? since omni is stating that something needs to be changed prior to get dual displays working it would be cool if someone who is very experienced could put together a Titan kext for dual display setups.

Wisam Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 Thanks joe75 but I was inside /System/Library/Extensions when I used sudo I need a new mobo with Intel processor to get the new kernel It is just I could not get ASrock DVI from the dealer here. I will go to look this evening. I am tired of waiting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murcielago585 Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 I'm running the semthex kernel right now, i tried to install this with my 7600 gt and all i get and black and white bars. can anybody tell me what to type in terminal after i copy the kext to System/Library/Extensions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icyderguru Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 sudo -s chmod 777 /System/Library/Extensions/Titan.kext rm /System/Library/Extensions.kextcache rm /System/Library/Extensions.mkext after that reboot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tek_No Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 Yup I read his site: Omni is mentioning X1000 based cards but not any cards prior to those... We have to wait and see what happens. Did you read his site Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelhydra Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 AND IT WORKS!!!!! IT............................. JUST........................... WORKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THANKS Omni. (And I tried it with the Mifki kernel, if you read this forum) Giandal tell us, does the new driver let the monitor enter standby mode? This is great news Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murcielago585 Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 thanks for the help guys but i tried that method and i get "System extension cannot be used." after the method icyderguru posted. I also tried to repair permissions and get the same message. for those who got this working, what steps did you take? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dvil Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 Full success, XFX 6600 GT fully working, tested with Openmark, iTunes, Quicktime, DVD player. OpenGL extension viewer report full support. This is on a Dell dimension 4700 using the semthex kernel modified to avoid the CPUID bug in the Dells Pc's. The system is fully supported now.

dvil Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 dvil, what steps did you take to make it work? Just the ones outlined on omni's site, copy the Titan.kext to /System/Library/Extensions, chmod and chown it chmod -R 755 Titan.kext chown -R root:wheel Titan.kext delete Extensions.kextcache and Extensions.mkext, reboot and pry.

dm_webd Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 sudo chown -R root:wheel /System/Library/Extensions/Titan.kextsudo chmod -R 755 /System/Library/Extensions/Titan.kext You need new kernel Theres three ideas Now go sit back down and finish your homework I'm not sure the new kernel is needed. I've copied all the nVidia related kexts from the new kernel, and my system doesn't hang at boot. It sets the resolution properly but I only get a black screen, but it keeps booting and I can connect via network. It seems it gets initialized properly. I think my problem has to do with the framebuffer offset omni mentioned (my card is a laptop card). So as a result I'm creating my own kext based on omni's description - it's nearly done now, too bad I have to go to work now. If anyone can try the new kext's on the old kernel, please report your findings, it would be of great help to see if it is possible at all.
