Hi there, I know there is a lenghty (26 pages!!!) thread about this:
http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?sho...ic=889&st=0

I think what we know is that using the "fake external monitor trick" this integrated graphic card works fine. My question, however, is the following:

does GMA 900 workk 100% (full resolutions/QE/CI) with 10.4.7? With tricks or out of the box (besides the dongle above)?

This is not clear from the thread. I want to modify the new HCL wiki.

Thanks

It works properly on my Sony Vaio VGN-SZ120P. Full QE/CI. I couldn't get full resolution on my 1280x800 lcd screen without a 3rd party app.

*Although* I could attach and external screen and get full resolution out of it without hassle.

thanks dreethal. two questions:
1-what do you mean by third party app?
2-yuo can get full resolution on the lcd, or only on the external screen?

thanks!

The Third Party app is SwitchResX. OS X would only load up in 1024x768 mode before on the LCD. It probably was because it was a non-standard resolution. It runs at 1280x800.

I also can get full resolution on an externally attached screen (NEC 20WMGX2 in this case) at 1680x1050. It didn't need any tweaking from SwitchResX.
