07mackenzie Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 Anyone have any ideas on why I have to boot with -x? Any help would really be appreciated - i want to get QE running, see specs in my post above Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrumBrum74 Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 Anybody tried this with 7600GO with 512mb? http://nvinject.free.fr/files/Latest_NVinj...0.2.1_512Mb.zip I installed Leo using Kalyway 10.5.1 dvd. Did not choose any drivers for gfx card. Then rebooted fine and low resolution desktop. Downloaded and installed the file above. Rebooted and the desktop is there like it should be. Hope this helps other with 7600 GO card with 512mb. I've got a HP DV9060EA and I changed my wireless card to a Dell 1490 one. Wireless works fine as well. Had to patch the bios to get my laptop to accept the wireless card. Anybody know how to get the battery indicator to show if the system is on power or running on battery?

07mackenzie Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 BrumBrum74- thanks for the info! I originally did the install with the provided nvinject and it gave me high res but no QE - is your QE enabled by using those drivers instead? Also, did you get audio working? If so, how I ask because we basically have the same laptop Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrumBrum74 Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 I used Azalia Out for the audio. QE is enabled it says. Same with Rotation. If there´s a way to test to make 100% sure, I can do that. Just let me know how to do so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
07mackenzie Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Thanks a ton! I'll try it tonight! And did you use the Azalia that was a option in the install DVD or did you just do it afterwards? I used the kalyway disc and that was one of the options (i assume you chose both vanilla kernels too?) thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rpfordtx Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 I have a dv9230us. How did you get it to boot without the disc in the drive? I have Windows Vista on my first physical drive and Leopard on my second one, but the only way I can get Leopard to boot is by taking out my first drive, and having the Leopard install DVD in the disc drive. Kinda frustrating... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nrrtv Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 Well, I just installed Kalyway 10.5.1 here on my DV9200cto. Dual boot with Vista.To work, I installed Kalyway vanilla on mbr (I didn't managed GUID to work). Then, after everything installed and the system tells you to reboot, I went to Vista and used EasyBCD to add a OSX entry on the loader (choose generic OSX86). It worked like a charm here... no dvd need at all. Another thing! If you come across a blinking cursor with your HD led fully on, maybe you should format the osx partition again and use a name without spaces (eg: Mac_OSX)Worked here. Don't forget to set the partition mode to MBR if you pretend to install mbr_efi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have everything working perfectly but my audio in/out, even the stupid webcam works but haven't been able to find a way to get external audio, only built-in speakers. Have to use external card whenever I want to record.running 10.5.1 EFI vanilla kernelFor anyone who hasn't seen it, it's pretty cool: system profiler reads model identifier as HP Pavilion dv6000 mine reported as core solo too until I installed EFI and Vanilla kernel. Now in about this Mac it shows as core 2 duo, and under system profiler it show 2 cores. Have you checked the audio settings in System Preferences? When I got my audio working it was the opposite, only line-out, but I could change it to internal speakers through the Output tab in the Sound settings... Is nVidia 8400m working? I need resolution 1280x800 is this possible? Search for Nvinject- the latest version 33. But I'd update to 10.5.2 first, and run the Graphics Update first, because I've read people had to mess around with some things after the graphics update when they ran Nvinject beforehand. After I installed Nvinject after the 10.5.2 and Graphics Update, I couldn't boot properly, but I think it was because of my dual monitor. Either way, I fixed it by repairing permissions from the Disk Utility from my Kalyway install disc. IAtkos v1.0iworks awesome but- no wifi- going to use usb wifi no webcam- who needs a webcam no sound- this needs fixxing anybody know a fix for the sound?
