cyclonefr Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 What kexts are they? The gmax3100 kext that I found in my extensions folder after installing the Graphics Update package hasn't been modified since "October". Like I said theres gmax3100fb and intel frame buffer... I can't "view contents" of package -- just incase the installer isn't copying over the kext, so therefore I suffer with sluggish graphics I didn't look at the version but I had the same problem with NVIDIA drivers and they were in fact updated... It seems you need to DELETE old kexts to put the new one, else they aren't updated correctly... Don't ask me why but GeForce.kext was still an old version while it was actually updated : so I deleted the old one and got the new one correctly installed.

^_^ Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 I was wondering if the shutdown, reboot, sleep is still a problem with the update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclonefr Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 kunijp : everything works except I can't reboot / shutdown anymore after waking up my hackintosh from sleep. As long as I don't sleep it's fine. It's a Geforce 8xxx bug, and hopefuly with the gfx-string from a Mac Pro it'll help fixing this... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macgirl Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 I'm running 9C20 with Vanilla kernel and AppleSMBIOS but with mod AppleACPIPlatform becaus vanilla conflict with PowerManagement.bundle to display Baterry status, vanilla AppleACPIPlatform works but no battery indicator. Also, there are two interesting kexts: AppleUSBMultitouch.kext and AppleUSBGigEthernet.kext, AppleUSBEthernet.kext updated too. Problem: new OpenGL.Framework, it does nothing, any OpenGL app display blank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

macgirl Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 Yeah, exactly. I didn't test it on my AMD destop, or my Powerbook yet (neither on two Dell Optiplex that I convert to hackintoshes at my Work). There is no reason for my AMD that has perfectly working GF 6600.

johan Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 well hope that opengl will work on my nvidia 8800 gtx 8400 has always been more difficult to make it run, yes ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macgirl Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 Well since there are no real Macs with it, means less or no support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can always rollback to the one used in 9C16 and still keep new NV50 Kexts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smooth3006 Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 will this be released tomorrow to us then ? i thought i heard it wouldnt be ready untill febuary ? im running kalyway leopard osx 10.5.1 with vanilla kernal, i hope i will be able to just do an update instead of a full install. i also hope the update will allow my hackintish to detect all of my 512mb memory on my nvidia 8600gt instead of the 256mb it shows now. everything works great on my install except the graphics card issues i listed above, can't find printer drivers for my lexmark x1270 and occasionally when i shut down the pc from within osx it doesnt fully work and i have to manually do it by pressing the power button on my case. but other than that i love my new hackintosh and i use it more than my vista install.

Konami® Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 will this be released tomorrow to us then ? i thought i heard it wouldnt be ready untill febuary ? Yes, that's what everybody said.

NatMusak Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 Yeah, because it's not like Microsoft listened to customers complaining about copying speed and put a patch out months ago and there are a ton of other examples like this. But hey, lying makes you look cool. roboskip, where did I "lie?" I said Microsoft releases "...service packs that just introduce more problems, fix a few bugs, and ignore the fine touches requested by users." Apple consistently delivers while MS consistently promises, delays, promotes, delays, and finally either releases a mediocre product to compete with 1-5 year old Apple tech, or finally lets the vaporware evaporate to announce something else they'll never deliver in an attempt to distract the consumer away from the ever encroaching competition. What's REALLY cool is someone who pretends Apple's the new Microsoft, Zune is the new iPod, up is the new down, nonsense is the new logic, etc., etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyclonefr Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 For people who can't switch resolutions with 8xxx cards, just plug your monitor into the FIRST DVI port (the one next to the motherboard) and it should fix this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
