Hey guys,

I've just created a simple Installer for nVidia GeForce FX 5200 Users and FX 5500 Users that allows users to just download the installer and run it. Its like Install and forget. What it does is pretty much saves your time to download the 250MB combo updater patch + editing plist + installing titan <-- a lot of hassle . Bah , this is the answer then , you just run the installer and voila you have QE/CI working* [and as well as Hardware OpenGL Acceleration]. No tearing or what-so-ever.


Here is the how to

1. Download the FX 5200 Installer or FX 5500 Installer
2. Run the installer , it would install everything for you. Just go with Easy Install [you dont have to customize anything unless you're debugging something or you have been told to do so]
3. Once its done , run Disk Utility to repair permissions
4. Reboot and pray
5. You should have your card kickin'


Oh here you go guys the URL :-

http://www.rakis.net/~prasys/gf5200.zip <-- for GeForce FX 5200 Series

For FX5500 Series , I will be uploading an installer once i receive feedback on this

I would like to thank dorin for this , for providing me the kexts , editing everything.

Hi Prasys
I have a Geforce FX5600 AGP 256MB lying around, I am interested to try your installer just for the heck of it.
Let me know what to modify... (maybe just Dev ID/Vend ID)
Cheers

Yep just modify the devID/Ven ID..I am making an installer that just does that for all FX5xxx series [since its quite popular]

Good Job Prasys! Looking for driver for NVidia GeForce FX 5500 (vend id: 10de, device id: 0326).
Now using Thico Alves driver, i can switch between resolution and refresh rate, but seems that card dont have acceleration or OpenGL (dont know what exactly not working, because im a bit end-user) - but i noticed that, because there is no water drop effect when adding new widget on desktop. So hope, that Your upcoming drivers for 5500 will fix this. (Maybe on 5200 drivers that effect is working).
I could try to rename number 5200 to 5500 in all package contents and rename vendor and device id, but does it will work? Or there must be written another things, for proper driver working for 5500?

Cheers Prasys budd'

waiting for the FX 5500... thanks

Great Work!

FX 5200 With QE/CI

http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r79/fer...AC/Picture1.png

Great job prasys congratulations!!
We only have problem with BUS, because the system recognize as PCI and i find than this reduce much your performance.

Great! great! great!!! I m gonna test it now! I ve a GeForce FX Go 5700... I will try it changing the IDs...

this is great, im waiting for fx5500, when will ya will release it?

I have a nVidia GeForce FX 5500 256MB PCI. Great work prasys, I look forward to qe and ci finally.

Okay guys , I will be uploading the FX5500 after x-mas or boxing day

I will include AGPGart/Part in it for AGP thingy...needt to find a way to include that ! and now you can make your own DVD with it..Just put the pkg and voila , QE/CI/OpenGL out of the box !

http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=36480 - this helped me a lot, however I can either have AGP or CI/QE!

grr.. i still can't get CI/QE! I have an AGP fx5200 devid 0x0322 rev 0x00a1

I'm installing on top of JaS Internal 10.4.6 with combo update to 10.4.7 with JaS' beta9 kernel updater and replaced kernel with semthex experimental 6.

I've been told that I need to reinstall with the Myzar Installation...

is that so?

ok, i have asus a8v mobo, verto (vendID 0000) fx5200 ultra (devID 321)which it finds during boot up, and it freezes at skgeosx: setmulticastmode on any ideas?? does not go into gui mode at all.

i have a list of DevID and VendID numbers listed below. i pulled them all from a nvidia bios editor that i have used to edit the bios of my video card. hope this helps

im thinking about updating to the new 10.4.8 with semthex and the beta9, but ive heard people saying they have troubles with my graphics card. i have a nvidia fx go 5200 (64 MB). will this work??? any suggestions would be appreciated!

livestrong

wow sorry about that apparently i have a 5600, not a 5200

and im on a SSE2 machine.

Works great for QE/CI but still no dual monitor. Anyone out there have a Nvidia FX 5200 working with dual monitor?

do we need the semthex JaS SSE2 update for this or will this work on my 10.4.7 JaS install?

thanks!

livestrong

hey i tryed this package in 10.4.8 and everything was awesome! it loaded right up and i had QE/CI but when i tried loading it in 10.4.6, all i got was resolution changing ability.... any help?

thanks

hey there

i have a geforce fx go 5650
is this supported too ?

and on which installation has the patch to be done ? 10.4.6, 10.4.7 ? 10.4.8 with 8.4.1 kernel ?
didn`t get that.


thanks for the hints

cu

Prasys - where is the 5600 support ?

WIll this work with a 10.4.1 install.....
I tried it...and the system never gets past the mac booting screen....It chugs and chuggs on the hard drive....
can't even get it to safeboot....

I noticed that geforce developer kexts are in the 10.4.1 deadmoo extensions directory....could I just modify those to get the exsisting ones to work?
also I have to remove all of the intel drivers as well....

useing an emachines
intel d845gvsr
celeron d with sse3
512MB

search and you will find your answer

I'm running 10.4.7, and installed this driver. and restarted and I can change resolution now, however i don't have CI or QE, do i need to edit something. Thanks

Prazys would it it be to much to ask to make work with nVIDIA GeForce FX Go5700?? I need it badly, since i can´t make it work with the 10.4.8 with Titan or Natit, i´m really fresh meat when it comes to OsX , as oyu can see on my forum info,

First of all, sorry bout the double post. But i´ve been lookin around and found the LaptopDisplay treath from np_ , and since you know how to... is it possible that my probs come from using a laptop?? I have a Acer Aspire 1714SMi, with the nVidia Card, and all my test´s with Titan or Natit resulted in a black and, then white, screen for Titan, with ( i supose so...) Os running in the background, and Nattit a totally black screen in the same conditions. My question is... Would some how youre installer consider this? Or dumb me should stick to windows??

just for the info:

Chipset Model: NVIDIA GeForce FX Go5700
Type: Display
Bus: PCI
VRAM (Total): 128 MB
Vendor: nVIDIA (0x10de)
Device ID: 0x0348
Revision ID: 0x00a1
Displays:
Display:
Resolution: 1280 x 1024 @ 60 Hz
Depth: 32-bit Color
Core Image: Not Supported
Main Display: Yes
Mirror: Off
Online: Yes
Quartz Extreme: Not Supported

@ nody have you tried adding your device id (which is: 0x034810de) to nvdaresman.kext, geforce.kext and the appropriate nvdanhalXX.kext?
thats after an install of titan/natit but before a restart.

That´s all i´ve done, put my ID on Geforce, nvdaresman, and on nvdanhal kext´s. the nvdanhal i did de nvdanhal40, and also 30 & 40 @ the same time, still got my black & white, and with Natit my Totallyyy Black screen. Should i go for the 10 & 20 to?? I´m really lost when comes to Mac and modding kext. Never done nothing of the kind with it.
Also Dense in *http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=35422&st=80* post#89 says you do not change GeForce.kext or it will crashes you´re system, so since there´s no really how to for everybody it´s getting very confusing and frustating, and also seeing all the sucess on other´s makes us poor fiew sad sad sad.ehehehehehehe.

to get my 7600gt and 7600gs working all i editied was geforce.kext so.... beleive who you want to believe.

did you refer to this?


read twice edit once

I´ve never touch that, and at the moment i´m back to 10.4.7, got a bit tired of formating the all chibanga. And i´m usin macnvidia kext, i don´t know how to use lines of command at -s startup to put every thing back, if something guet´s wrong again. So as you may imagine after about 20 formats i´m just a litle big tired.

just crying my self a litle see if some good soul will make me a ready install package , or to say the least give a complete how to that i could follow trough to get it done .

wishing never did no arm... i guess...

Sorry for the long post everyone

Ok Mr Diabolik since my last post i´ve not be able to rest my mind, i´m not the kind to quit, but if it´s not askin to much i´d like to ask you for some assistance and correct me if i´m wrong on my line of thinkin:

To get Natit.kext to work (lets see if i have all in the right place...)

First i have to correct my ID from <dict>
<key>name</key>
<string>GeForce FX Go5700</string>
</dict>
<key>0x034C</key>
<dict>
to :<dict>
<key>name</key>
<string>GeForce FX Go5700</string>
</dict>
<key>0x0348</key>
<dict>

Then Get GeForce.kext and change-
<key>IOPCIMatch</key>
<string>0x000010de&amp;0x0000ffff</string>

to:
<key>IOPCIMatch</key>
<string>0x034810de&amp;0x0000ffff</string>

Then get NVDAResman.kext, and NVDANV30Hal.kext and put everything on Extensions. I say NVDANV30Hal.kext since it got´s :

0x034010de&amp;0xfff0ffff and i´guessin here, but that´s the reference to my card. Do i live it like that, or should i change that reference to match my card ID?

After all this, i get openglframework fron the intel package from apple and place it in the right place. Do nothing to IONDRVSupport.


And now - NVDANV10Hal.kext,NVDANV20Hal.kext and NVDANV40Hal.kext i remove from the extensions folder.

After that is the part that i need some help:

in terminal i do sudo chown -Rf root:wheel GeForce* NVDA* Natit*
sudo chmod -Rf 755 GeForce* NVDA* Natit*
diskutil repairPermissions /
And Reboot.

Now Time to make some questions:

-Should i go also sudo chow and sudo chmod to NVDANV30HAL, or no??
-Can i test this with 8.4.1 kernel or will natit only work with 8.8.1??

-If something should go wrong what to do on reboot F8 -s ??

Is it rm -r /System/Library/Extensions.kextcache
rm -r /System/Library/Extensions.mkext
kextcache -k /System/Library/Extensions/ ????


and should i rm Natit.kext also?? and if so before the Extensions.kextcache isn´t it??

My last question is if all this is correct and in the correct order, if something goes wrong how will my machine load Os if doesn´t have any kext to my display??

Man!! I Couldn´t get this working!! I have a Leadtek agp fx 5200 (id 0322, vendor 10de), and i tried "pure" titan install, your installer, the 11mb installer of the another guy in this forum, and the only thing i get is resolution changing. I have jas amd intel 10.4.8 with jas ppf, and kernel 8.8.1. Do anyone know what i can do?

i have a 5200 that came with wit a HP Media Center PC m370n that i was given. device 0x0322 . i tried the installer, it gives me all the resolutions--im running 1600x1200@60hz on my samsung SyncMaster 204B---but no QE/CI...im running Jas 10.4.6, i tried the re-seed 10.4.8 but it was no boot. anything i can try?? i have another hackitosh and it does have QW/CI enabled (GMA900) and it ROCKS! now if i can onlyt get this one.... :-P

To all those getting res changing and not QE/CI, have you checked AGPGart? I haven't got my new card to try this yet, but from what I've seen you can't use AGPGart with Natit/Titan, so for acceleration to work try moving AGPGart.kext out of extensions folder.

Corona

is this Installer applicable on version 10.4.6?

Hi guy's I have an Nvidia 6100 Go and it does not work, somebody help me!!!

Please!!!

thx

Worked like a charm with my GeForce 5200 FX under OSX 10.4.8 JAS DVD , Thank you Prasys

I installed this patch but now my machine won't boot even in safe mode. Is there anything I can do to rescue my install and then how do I get this driver working?

Thanks for any help.

I am excited on learning this.... thanks prasys!!! what can you say... should i scrap my build-in gma950 for geforce fx5200??? which is better in performance?? sorry for being noob on this..

It depends i1sam...It really depends on you....Seriously , if you disable your GMA 950 , you'll save some RAM Space and FX5200 is a pretty 'cheapo' card for O SX

If you're on PCIe , I would suggest you to go for Nvidia geforce 7300/7600 series

In this picture it looks like OSX is detecting two screens? (Or capability for two screens) - is that true?

I'm trying to find the cheapest card I can use that won't give me too many headaches and supports dual monitors - FX5200 could be it?

EXELLENT!!. thanx a lot. It work perfect with my gf5200 agp (shown as PCI thou)....

EDIT: I just notice DVD plays chunky. there is a way to solve that, or is a hardware limitation?

A little bit further....
Im using now VLC and it works great (apple dvd player needs SSE3)....
and I get no monitor connected in the profiler....
but is working pretty good. Now I'll try if I can get dual screen to work.
cheers


(why I cannot edit my posts?, the edit link is gone)

I was going to give up, then I found this, you are FREAKING AWESOME. Thank you ever so much. It just works great. *gush* *gush*

Hi Gurus,

Will the installer for FX 5600 be out anytime soon? I just installed 10.4.8 on my box but would love to fix the video problem.

No
10.4.8 is recomended
