So I've installed OSX 10.4.8 JaS version and got most things working.

Working:

Intel Pentium M 1.73 - SSE2 Only
Intel GMA900 - Diabolik Patch for QE/CI working
Intel 2200BG wireless - using drivers that allow for connections to unprotected networks
Firewire
PCMCIA Slots - Used kexts from 10.4.3
CD-RW/DVD combo drive
Trackpad
USB slots

Not working:

Integrated 1.3MB webcam - Detected as USB2.0 Camera in system profiler but no apps will use it
Realtek Audio ALC880 - tried patches and kexts here including Diabolik's Azalia patch, but so far not working
Alps Bluetooth - others have this working, but mine just won't work


I think with a little work I can get the audio working. My issue is the integrated Bluetooth though as others have it working, but mine just won't work. Can anyone with Alps Bluetooth (044E:3001) give me some screenshots from system profiler so I can try to get something working? Any help would be appreciated.

Hello Dark
I've a problem in installing OSx86 on my asus w5a laptop.

When booting during install I get blue screen and nothing happen, Have you done special BIOS settings or boot parameters when you have installed your system ?

Hi,

I have shorted pin 1 and 6, 2 and 12 of the VGA port to make w5a working.

This is so call vga hack which many laptop users have been trying.

Cheers.

Did anybody tried to install 10.5 to Asus W5A? I failed. Installation goes well (Leo4All3 10.5.3) but after reboot system hangs right after firewire check.
