For a while now i have been trying to get QE/CI or just QE to work.
Tried everything.
Installed AGP drivers.

SO i decided to have a look around to see if it was a AGP graphics card.

Its not its PCI on Dell Latitude D505.

So i wrote down the ID's and sub ID's which are for the PCI and i noticed it had the graphics card ID in there.

So i was wondering would it be possible for someone to make a driver for the PCI file in Mac OSX 10.4.10 and the graphics card.

As this maybe be why some people are not get QE/CI or QE active.

The ID's are:-

PCI Bus

ID's SUB

0x35808086 ________________________________________01631028
0x35848086 ________________________________________01631028
0x35858086 ________________________________________01631028
0x35828086 -> Graphics Card Intel Extreme 2 G885ME______01631028
0x24c28086 ________________________________________01631028
0x24cd8086 ________________________________________01631028
0x24488086
0x24cc8086
0x24ca8086_________________________________________01631028
0x24c58086_________________________________________01631028
0x24c68086_________________________________________542214f1

Anyhelp would be grateful as i am new to Apple Mac. Thanks in advance!!

The ID's are from windows and i just added the 8086 to which is to do with mac I think. So if you take the 8086 off you get the Windows ID's. Sub Id's i've left as windows standard.

10.4.1 is the ONLY Version of OSX, where you get QuartzExtreme in Hardware. Its so simple, no other Version will do it censored2.gif

So changing the PCI id's in mac osx won't get it working then.

Whats the Different between 10.4.1 and 10.4.10.

Can't i just use 10.4.1 kext files on 10.4.10.

No, it wont do the Trick. Apple changed "something" or deleted support, and even in 10.4.3 Dev Version it didnt work anymore

Oh well i'll wait till i get my laptop then. Will it work with a Nvidia 7150m GFX???????I'll give the ID's a try and see what happens. Windows Vista was so easy to sort the 855GME alll i did was installed XP drivers.I guess i was hoping for Mac to be the same!IS there any otherway to get the software thats depentant on QE I.E video playing and iMovie etc to work with out QE be enabled?Also what is the file name for the PCI section of Mac OSX?

So the only way will be to downgrade to 10.4.1. Is there any software that will make QE dependant software work without QE

No, 7150m is an IGP, so it takes VRAM as SharedMemory from RAM. OSX does not support such Feature.

In /System/Library/Extensions/ you have 4 Files: AppleIntel830.kext, AppleIntel830GLDriver.bundle, AppleIntel830GA.plugin and AppleIntelIntegratedGraphics.kext
Info.plist of AppleIntel830.kext is the place of these PCI IDīs (PCIMatch)

You can try with OpenGL Profiler (in XCode) to load these Applications.

Do you have the opengl profiler (Xcode) to hand also i've now working on the ID's if i get it to work i'll let you know!
If you do have the opengl profiler can you send it to me at hacktrix2006@tiscali.co.uk.

I've just downloaded a ATI PCI patcher for tiger and it found what has been removed in the core file.

It said that setgui has been removed so it could be down to that. I'll let you know either way!

Thanks ins advance!

I gave it a try and it seems your correct, it doesn't work at all lost sound and everything else after changing everything.
They removed the PCI graphics lot out of the Mac OSX core file so that is why it won't work
