hi cinepires i have a vaio sz330p... i have QE/CI, 1280x800x32 screen resolution with my intel video osx see as 950... the nvidia 7400 go dont work to mee with titan or natit, i didnt try with macvidia driver!!! ethernet works perfect, dual core works perfect, hard drive work perfect, no wifi yet, no sound yet...

i have a Sony Vaio SZ2M/B
The GeForce GO 7400 works but no QE/CI, only display with mac drivers, Natit and Titan didnt work
Sigmatel 9225 <- dont work
Ethernet Marvel Yukon <- perfect
Wifi Intel 3945ABG <- dont work

i tried the stamina mod for loading with the graphic chipset intel 950GM, i have QE/CI but i can't have 1280x800 (widescreen 13,3") i have only choice between 640x800, 800x600 and 1024x800

Could you help me ranapiccola to have a good display, which version and kernel do u use ? thanks

hi yougi!!! well i installed a software called displayconfigx, you can find typing in google... this software detect all screen resolution that your graphic card and monitor support, and belive me this works... i have 13.3" too... let me know if work for you... very important this works only with QE/CI support... i have beta9 semthex sse3 kernel...but this worked with beta8 too...

any way how did you install macvidia drivers... i have a zip with 4 .kext all then go into Extensions folder?

For Macvidia, I used Macvidia 1.0.8, it inclues an automatic installer
you can find it at www.macvidia.com

your kernel version? and which kernel do you have? semthex, mifki, etc...

I installed 10.4.5 then I update to 10.4.8 and I always had kernel 8.4.1

hi

Tks for all post and im more optimist about mac on vaio

still trying and i update 10.4.8 new kernel and the 7400 doent work with any drive or automatic installer ... at the moment its working but with the native mac disply 1024x760

the audio doest work as the wireless too

i will tray now the displayconfigx ...... cross fingers

tks

hi drimzy... what version of os you have?... installing 10.4.8 and 950GM kext your intel video works with QE/CI and using displayconfigx you have the appropiate resolution...

I used SwitchRes (kind of displayconfigx) to have 1280x800 at 60hz 'cause I dont know how to use displayconfigx (
i have now a good display and CI/QE with my chipset intel 950GM

Try macvidia 1.0.8 for GeForce GO 7400 to have an appropriate display but you'll not have CI/QE.

need wireless(intel 3945ABG) and audio (sigmatel 9225) to fix ^^ waiting for it

i tell you displayconfigx only works with QE/CI enable... without it dont work...
i used displayconfigx with my 950GMA QE/CI enable to fix resolution to have 1280x800x32...,

macvidia 1.0.8 do not work with new semthex kernel... produce kernel panic, the version 1.0.81 most "work" with the new kernel but... for me didnt

yougi try Toruga's pacher and let me know... for sigamtel 9225

hello


im using Jas 10.4.8 last kernel its not supose the QE/CI its enable ???

im try all macvida all intallers didnt work
Natit and Titan didnt work

yesterday i was using the native mac drive with clean install Os Jas 10.4.8 last kernel and install the displayconfigx.... and the OS restart but nothing happens just Blue OS screen and mouse pointer



any sugestion? how remove it now? to get back the desktop

I dont know how it works the taruga's patcher we need a driver for linux but we dont have it =/

Look at my Vaio specs in sig. The GeForce 7400 Go is incompatible with Titan and Natit on my system, so I use the Intel GMA 950 to get QE and CI.

Also for those people who can't use the max resolution on their vaio: Go into the Sony Bios and change the display option to stretch to entire screen. If I do not have this option selected, my max res is something below 1280x800. However, with the option selected I get the full screen resolution of 1280x800.

we have the same sigmatel audio codec 9225... try with this... just drag and drop into Toruga's pacher... let me know...

cool.. work perfecty now (GM 950) !

thanks

The sons drivers doesnt work

anyone has test a driver for wireless?

for sound i bow a usb-audio and works native

there is not yet wireless driver.
the usb audio is not very good for laptop because we had integrated speakers

hello

about sigmatel on vaio there is other projects for wireless and audio drives on vaios dual BUT "LINUX PROJECT"

and seems

Sound is working with alsa:1.0.10

and for wifi
http://ipw3945.sourceforge.net/

well the question is i heard about some drives can be ported from linux to mac! if there is any one how know what im talking about , its just an hypothetical ideia

tks

Sound is working with alsa:1.0.10

where i find the kext?

its LINUX drives and its not for MAC

is there any news about the sound card or about the wifi ?

i tried torugas's pacher and i got sound with headphone only, no sound in speakers... and my mic works allright!!! why you guys try? i have post my linux codec the works for you (only sigmatel 9225) but if you can make it do it!!!

poste it

please let me know if it works
TKS

for sigmatel 9225

http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?sho...9&hl=toruga

see post #20...

I tried your codec dump, its doesnt work at all, taruga's patcher dont modify the AppleHDA.kext, i have a message who said that its not working then i have a "exiting.."

try to make a screenshot cause i don't understand!!!

im having a SZ2XP
i have copied skge 0.2d version to my 10.4.8 semthex SSE3 kernel and moded the plist to 435111AB and the driver is loaded but it's unloaded at startup (-v) says the driver is stopped
any idea?

try that

1) Get the device id of the ethernet controller.
Go into Windows -> Device Manager.

Find the ethernet controller and get Properties on it.
For mine, it is

vendor 11AB
Device 4351

it might be different between machines. please check!


Click the Details tab and read the vendor id and device id. The vendor id is going to be "11AB"

2) In OSX, go into Terminal and edit the following file:
sudo nano /System/Library/Extensions/IONetworkingFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AppleYukon.kext/Contents/Info.plist
if u get an "Open with" dialog, right click the file and click "Show Package Contents"

Scroll down and find the following:
<key>IOPCIPrimaryMatch</key>
<string>0x436211AB</string>
Replace the bold numbers with the device id you found above.

Save the file.
Exit the file.

3) Delete the following files. In Terminal, type (or copy and paste):
sudo rm -r /System/Library/Extensions.mkext
sudo rm -r /System/Library/Extensions.kextcache

4) Repair permissions. In Terminal, type:
diskutil repairPermissions /

5) Reboot



you have the same vendor and device 0x435111AB

What version of Taruga's patcher did you use ranapiccola plz ? and how did you edit the taruga.ini ?



is the speaker work? and the lineout for headphone?

thanksssss

and what did you use for the screen display ? (to get 1280x800)
I use SwitchRes but its a trial version for 10 days only..

So my Sony vaio SZ3 have sound now.
Thanks to Taruga.
I've a triple boot Windows/OSX/Linux.
I used v1.12 patcher and my codec dump acquired from Mandriva 2007.0 (core0)
Codec is stac7661.

- Microphone....Not tested.
- Headphones...Must be activated in System Pref/Sound/Output

uff i don't put my dump into applehda script.. permission?

great !! work!!! now lack only wifi...news about memory stick? or card reader?

could you tell me how you get 1280x800 display plz ?

with intel card apply a kext for 950GM and set bios to exspans monitor

could you send me the kext to apply for 950 ? plz explain me how to apply the kext
thankss

Do you mean that a 950GM kext would work on a nvidia card? I´m kinda confused here...

no, we dont use the geforce because we cant have QE and CI with it

i use a kext from last jas dvd patch for 950gm

okok Hope there will be some kind of kext/fix for nvidia 7x00go soon

I have Sony Vaio VGN-N150G and I installed Mac OS X 10.4.7

here are the problems:

1- high CPU Tempreture : 62C to 71C. is it natural? how to solve it?
2- Sound Card doesn't work. I have a Realtek High Definition Audio but I can't find the chipset model? How can I find it?
3- How can I safely upgade to 10.4.8? can I simply update through Apple, online?
4- How about power management? can you see your battery status in Mac? or do you get any warning when it goes to finish?

1- I think you cant solve it =/
2- Try the taruga's patcher (let see his topic)
3- Try JaS 10.4.8 Update, no you cant upgrade trough Apple, you may have a instability system
4- Powermanager works very well, yes we have a warning

1- high CPU Tempreture : 62C to 71C. is it natural? how to solve it?

how to monitor CPU?
