Yes, we can! ML QE/CI on GMA950, GMA X3100, nVidia 7300, etc. systems...

A solution has been published on MacRumors as indicated here:

I thought I'd give it a shot on a few Hackinstoshes of mine and met success on 4 different laptops. These 4 machines are now under testing to evaluate long term stability, but it looks very good indeed!

More to follow, we're working on it at OSXL...

Yes, we can!

This well-known slogan may now apply to Mountain Lion on unsupported systems such as older Macs (2006-2008 era) dropped by Apple or Hackintoshes with dropped graphics chips like GMA950, GMA X3100, nVidia 7300, etc, etc.

The workaround was created by MLForAll and Hackerwayne as detailed here:
http://forums.macrum...d.php?t=1325709

It's very different from the kernel-patching methods that existed for Snow Leopard for instance (eg: Nawcom's legacy kernels), but it appears to work, so it's a solution, not to say "the" solution at present. Basically, its reverts to ML DP1 kernel, ML DP1 /S/L/E kexts + Lion graphics kexts and older OpenGL framework in order to boot in 32bit kernel mode -> Lion 32bit graphics kexts can then be loaded!

I'll put a post re: Hackintoshes in the OSx86 Installation section.

Dell Vostro200 - DSDT patching for Wake

05 March 2013 - 02:44 PM

Hi folks,

Got SL 10.6.8/Lion 10.7.5/ML 10.8.2 running on my oldish Vostro 200 (SlimTower). Everything works great, except one damn thing...

Specs:
. Foxconn G33M02 motherboard
. modded/unlocked Award BIOS 10.0.16, supporting HDD AHCI mode selection (from www.bios-mods.com)
. Intel G33 chipset
. Intel C2D E8600 3.33GHz FSB1333
. 4Go DDR2-800
. Intel 82562V-2 10/100Mb built-in Ethernet
. Realtek ALC888 audio
. ATI Radeon Pro X1300/X1550 (RV516 chip) 256Mb graphics card (low-profile fanless, 1 DVI dual-link + 1 S-Video). PCI dev id=0x7183
. TEAC CA200 internal-USB 19-in-1 card reader
. Logitech wireless (BT) keyboard and mouse

I got everything to work through myHack-based full Vanilla installation (32/64bit kernel mode, audio, full QE/CI (under SL-only), card reader, SpeedStep, sleep), but I just cannot get the computer to wake properly. It goes to sleep ok though: screen shuts off, fan stops, power button goes blinking, etc. I can press a key or move/click the mouse to try and wake it and the fan will resume, the power button will go solid and BT led will blink once on keyboard and mouse; the screen however stays off, no way to wake it.

There's no NullCPUPowerManagement kext, no SleepEnabler kext and it's running with Chameleon v2.2 r2181.

I did some DSDT patching to get things like HDD icons and restart/shutdown fixed, but I admit defeat on this wake business. I've tried to include some of the stuff MacNB did for his Inspiron 530 DSDT table, but that has not made any difference so far...

Is there any DSDT guru who could have a look or point me in the right direction? It's annoying having just one thing not working properly...

Many thanks.
