I replaced my on board video with an Nvidia 6200, Now What?

[mschlott]

I just picked up an Nvidia GeForce 6200LE and added it my currently working system. The system is a kalyway 10.5.1 install updated to 10.5.2. I never installed the Nvidia packages during the install since I had the on board video.

 

What do I need to install/configure to safely get my new card working correctly. Right now About This Mac reports it as NVIDIA(0x10de), Device 0x0163, Rev 0x00a1. I am limmeted to 1024x768 at 32 bit color. Can I just install the NVINJECT_gfnvidia and NATIT_gfnvidia packages from the kalyway dvd, or is there more to it?

 

If I have to roll back to my on board video, what files will I have to restore?

 

TIA

No responses, so this is what I did. Downloade the NVidia installer V4.1 from the link in this sticky. http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=83931

 

I installed everything but the kernel. I then went into Disk Utility and repaired permissions on my boot drive. It fixed a lot of problems.

 

Then I just rebooted. It came right up with full graphics support for my card.
