Here are some guides and links to files for these Dell models that have similar hardware

Last UPDATE of this guide: June 18 2008

For Tiger you can use either Jas 10.4.8 or Uphuck 10.4.9 When installing use cpus=1 at boot to avoid stuttering. There are no working drivers for either Intel or Nvidia cards on Tiger.

For Leopard it appears that iAtkos is the easiest way.
Since 10.5.1 Nvidia kexts doesn't work you need to boot with -s option (single user mode) at boot and delete or move NVDAResman.kext in order to boot in the GUI.

Known issues:

• shutdown and restart dont work after installing Nvidia kexts (10.5.2) or after installing whole 10.5.2 from any 10.5.2 DVD
• Audio at this point is experimental, sometimes you loose it after a reboot, sometimes you can recover if you put your laptop to sleep (some doesn't have this problem).
• No Boot Some installation DVDs leave with an unbootable partition, you can fix it installing the bootloader manually, see this guide: http://forum.osx86scene.com/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=1789

Now for components:

Components package: April 8 2008 sonotone made a package that includes several kexts and fixes, shee his thread here:

Audio STAC9228:

EDIT: March 23 2008 Use the patched AppleHDA.kext, a file is linked below as STAC9228_0x83847616.zip
Old method: Use Taruga's AppleHDA patcher 1.16 (work on Tiger and Leopard) thread here: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=32859 on the M1330 sound can be heard only thru the first headphones jack.
DELETE AppleAzalia.kext (it wil block AppleHDA to wok propperly, thanks to esthetik to remind me this).

EDIT: February 9 2008 You can use a gfx string and get rid of Natit/NVinject and AlCinject with this: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=81294 if you installed Netkas' PC-EFI V8, if you installed EFI from iATKOS it won't work.

Fingerprint scanner:

Use software from Upek, look here: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=66791

Onboard wired Ethernet:

If it has Broadcom 59xx or Marvell, there are no working driver yet,
EDIT: February 19 2008
If it has Broadcom 440x you can use an old kext, AppleBCM440XEthernet.kext (Kalyway, and some old DVDs like JAS 10.4.8 have it).
Also you can use an USB to Ethernet adapter, now even Apple sell one: http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebO...part=MB442Z%2FA and does not need third party drivers, but someone reports that only works after installing 10.5.2 update.

Onboard WiFi:

unless you have a Dell truemobile wireless card (Broadcom chipset) the intel ones does not have working kext ATM, but there is an effort to develop one here: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=36976
Also you can use an USB WiFi adapter, check the WiKi, I have a Zydas and Ralink adapters that work with Tiger and Leopard or you can buy the Dell Truemobile 1390 card off ebay for $15 shipped [Jake123 tip]
I bought a Dell Wireless TrueMobile 1505 Draft N mini PCI-E card that works out of the box as an Airport.

Bluetooth and Webcam are working out of the box

Media keys and remote control:

EDIT: March 28 2008 Now it is posible ot use those, you need one of these kexts (that maps media keys): PS2Keyboard.kext.zip or PS2Keyboard.kext-V2.zip or PS2Keyboard.kext-V3.zip (stop key enabled) and see this post: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?s=&...st&p=686894 for reference to Butler (a handy app)

It is possible to get SpeedStep with this http://forum.osx86scene.com/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=2727

For battery status:

you can use the PowerManagement.bundle from here: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=80425 and AppleSMBIOS from here: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=88087 or here http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=15474
EDIT: February 10 2008 in order to make this work you cant select the Sotck AppleACPIPlatform.kext from the Bootloader-> Darwin EFI option from iATKOS installation DVD since the vanilla ACPIPlatform does not contain the necesary AppleACPIPowerSource.kext (plugin). See the section "Power Management, SpeedStep and (S3) Sleep:" at Devilhood's guide
EDIT: February 12 2008 How to edit the AppleACPIPowerSource.kext to match the new 10.5.2 vanilla kexts:
In Terminal or text editor open AppleACPIPowerSource.kext/Contents/Info.plist and go to this part:

CODE

<key>OSBundleLibraries</key>
    <dict>
        <key>com.apple.driver.AppleACPIPlatform</key>
        <string>1.0.5</string>
        <key>com.apple.iokit.IOACPIFamily</key>
        <string>1.0.0d1</string>
        <key>com.apple.kernel.mach</key>

EDIT: February 13 2008 Guide to update to 10.5.2 or 10.5.3:

Now there is a patched 10.5.2 update and a package that has patched 9.2.0 kernel that works with many installations like BrazilMAC, Kalyway or iATKOS.

But this is for who want to install with the Vanilla 10.5.2
Better way is to downlaod the update than using Software Update, here is a link from where you can download it: http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/mac...omboupdate.html

Before running the update backup any kext that is not vanilla, like AppleHDA, AppleSMBIOS or AppleACPIPlatform, if you are using a non vanilla kernel also backup the kernel (mach_kernel) and the system.kext (non PC-EFI users)

PC-EFI users need to edit the Info.plist of the ACPIPS2Nub to match the new vanilla kexts

<key>OSBundleLibraries</key>

<dict>

<key>com.apple.driver.AppleACPIPlatform</key>
<string>1.2.1</string>
<key>com.apple.iokit.IOACPIFamily</key>
<string>1.2.0</string>
<key>com.apple.kernel.libkern</key>
<string>1.1</string>

</dict>

The following commands are from Netkas blog: http://netkas.org/?p=50
Open the Terminal and type:
sudo su
(put your password)
while sleep 1 ; do rm -rf /System/Library/Extensions/AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext ; done

Now run the Update when it finishes don't restart, stop the previous Terminal command and edit the following
/System/InstallAtStartup/scripts/1

Where it says kextload "/System/Library/Extensions/Dont Steal Mac OS X.kext"
should say kextload /System/Library/Extensions/dsmos.kext (if you are using dsmos, most likely with iATKOS or Kalyway) or
should say kextload /System/Library/Extensions/r3d3.kext (if you are using r3d3, very unlikely)

If you are using custom kexts or modified kernel now is the time to place them back, if you are not using PC-EFI also place back the kernel and the system.kext (remember to apply propper Onwership and Permissions)
Now you can reboot

the script that runs on the first reboot will install some files and then automatically reboots again so don't panic yourself.

Post any link to other files, tips or guides you want to include here, this is a collaborative guide.

General Announcements:

EDIT: June 18 2008 Superhai made a new kext, ClamshellDisplay which replaces TurnLidOn, this permit some laptops that when you close the Lid it sleeps see his post: post #1435

EDIT: June 18 2008 purlah Wrote a little guide to make the Sprint/Nextel (Novatel 5720) WWAN card to work, see his post: post #1433

EDIT: June 8 2008 Superhai made two kexts, SMBIOSResolver and EHCISleepEnabler to use vanilla versions of AppleSMBIOS.kext and AppleUSBEHCI.kext posts #1332, #1342 and #1343

EDIT: May 12 2008 loonsta reported: "I have tested witha Gigabit ExpressCard and it worked fine for me." see his post: post #1056

EDIT: April 3 2008 Superhai made a kext to change the value of AppleClamshellCausesSleep, which is responsible on laptops to use the Lid as Sleep trigger, want to try?
First release 0.9 here: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?s=&...st&p=694467
Second release 0.9.1 here: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?s=&...st&p=694940

EDIT: March 21 2008 I found that the SpeedStep Kernel causes black screen when you wake up the laptop, other users confirmed this, so if you want SLEEP you better use vanilla kernel.

EDIT: March 15 2008 Superhai compiled a modded PCGenUSBEHCI AppleUSBEHCI kext that allows Sleep, see his post: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?s=&...st&p=668434 http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?s=&...st&p=669969

EDIT: February 29 2008 netkas announced New 9.2.0 kernel with fixed shutdown see http://netkas.org/?p=57 does not work on our rigs btw

EDIT: February 20 2008 ranova got two-finger scrolling to work on his m1330!, he made a guide look the post #246 Didn't work for me though. Did worked for me after some adjustments.

EDIT: February 15 2008 ranova reports that with XPS M1330: "If after reboot you are not getting any sound, here is the solution: set up a hot corner in expose to "sleep display" and immediately after booting up, before you run any apps that use sound drivers, go to your hot corner to sleep and then unsleep your display, NOT the computer. Your sound should work now." but jstad says that it does not work on his Vostro 1400.

EDIT: February 14 2008 netkas announced New AppleSMBIOS for PC-EFI and 9.2.0 SpeedStep kernel, see: http://netkas.org/?p=51

EDIT: February 12 2008 cRuNcHiE made a keyboard Layout for UK: British_Dell_XPS_M1130_KeyboardLayout.zip
Also he found a thread for solving PS2 issues after 10.5.2 update: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?sho...87139&st=20

great work macgirl!!!! this 3d was necessary to reassume all knowledge about macdell .

This is great macgirl! Thanks a ton

It could be very well that sleep worked before the 10.5.2 graphics kext for the Nvidia card was added. But, strangly enough it did work after the kext was added.. just not the next time I installed.

Also, you should add that you can buy the Dell Truemobile 1390 card off ebay for $15 shipped, I just did a week ago.

I doubt sleep worked before 10.5.2 kexts because sleep needs QE/CI, it can't even shut off the screen without working kexts.

I added the wifi tip.

I have just ordered one of these.

does firewire work out of the box?

For me works, but I have some disconnects, don't know if it because bad cables, I didn't test it on windows though

Has anyone used kalyway to install?
what's the latest regarding sleep?

Cheers in advance, im just trying to get a heads up before my m1330 arrives.

I installed on my XPS m1330 with iATKOS r2, and with darwinefi everything works out of the box (except 8400 card which i used johnniecarcinogens installer and sound is only partly)

No success with batterymeter tough. But didn´t pursue it much as I prefer the stock kernel and I guess it would work if you use a custom AppleACPI.

Cheers i'll get the iatkos release then.. im using kalyway on my pc which works perfectly but iatkos didnt install properly, i'll try r2.

If anyone else is looking to get an m1330 you can get the fully loaded m1330 for £696 at the moment using vouchers|

I got this for £714 with the bigger battery, LED screen etc!

You could have this PowerManagement bundle: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=80425

I you are uisng PC EFi you could also combine Vanilla Kernel, SMBIOS and ACPIPlatform, you just need to take the AppleACPIPowerSource.kext from previous AppleACPIPlatform from it's plugins directory, just match the plugin boundaries with the kext version of ACPIPlatform, you may also need ACPIPS2Nub.kext (por PS2 devices).

Thank you for putting this together. It's great to see all of this info in one place. I have an XPS m1530 with EFI and working video, audio, webcam, and fingerprint reader.

Bluetooth is not working for me though. Vista tells me that I have the Dell Truemobile 355 Bluetooth + EDR. Leopard tells me "No Bluetooth device present." And if i try to set up a new device Leopard says, "No Bluetooth Hardware Found".

Anyone else have this issue? Any thoughts on solutions?

Bluetooth is attached to the USB, so in System Profiler it should appear as USB device even if it is not recognized.

Which method of install did you use? Which are the settings for the BT and WiFi shitch in BIOS?

Did you try to load the IOBluetoothFamily.kext or is any "*Bluetooth*" listed in the kextstat command?

I don't manage to install sound and graphic card on my m1330 !
I would like to install with gfx method and the macgirl's "com.apple.boot.plist".

This is what I do :
- I Install iAktos 1.0ir2
- I install last nvidia kext and nvinject with the johnniecarcinogen's installer, I select nvidia kext and 128 mb.
- I copy "com.apple.boot.plist" into /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/
- I install PC-EFI v8 with the iAktos DVD and a USB key, i use this command "./startupfiletool /dev/rdiskXsY "

And when i reboot i have the message "You need to restart your computer...."
I tried a lot of things, delete NVDaresman.kext,delete Geforce.kext.... because I had dependencies errors but without any success.

I don't know if I used the good procedure and now I don't know what I can do.
Thanks for your help

I've attached a screencap of kextstat and System Profiler.

BIOS settings for Internal Bluetooth = Enabled & Wireless Switch = All

I installed using the original iAtkos 10.5.1 with only the EFI option selected. Then i installed graphics and audio in a similar manner to what you've descrbied above. Finally, installed the fingerprint reader software thanks to your help above.

Very weird, the only thing that I see that differs is the version of the BCM2045, mine is 1.00 and yours is 3.67

here is my screnshot:

Did you try to load any of the bluetooth kext manually?

I haven't tried to load any of them manually. Can you point me to an article that will describe how to load them and/or which ones to try loading? I'm happy to experiment.

I don't know any guide for that, but you maybe could test with IOBluetoothFamily.kext

1. I moved the IOBluetoothFamily.kext out of /System/Library/Extensions/
2. Rebooted
3. Moved it back
4. Bluetooth worked beautifully
5. Paired up with my mobile phone
6. Used the internet through my phone (PAN) via bluetooth
7. Rebooted
8. I was back where I started (Bluetooth not working)

Any thoughts?

I want to thank Macgirl and all the folks who put these installers together for this amazing resource. I just got my Dell XPS M1330 4 days ago, and have spent a grueling 4+hrs/day trying to get a Leopard/Vista x64 dual boot system operational.

Stats:
Dell XPS M1330
13.3" WLED backlit LCD
T7500 2.2Ghz Core 2 Duo
3 Gb RAM, 160Gb 7200rpm HDD
128 MB Geforce 8400GS
Intel Wireless N, Bluetooth 2.0

I learned about the Hackintosh projects from an article in Lifehacker and decided to give it a try when I got my laptop. Following the instructions of those above me, I obtained a copy of iAtkos1.0 r2 and started with a fresh install. Loading the installer disc, I went ahead and formatted the HDD creating 2 partitions. I installed Leopard on a 25Gb partition with the MBR, and left the rest in FAT32.

After a couple of problems with the dreaded blinking cursor (gParted showed the Leopard partition flagged w/ Boot), I popped in a Vista CD and Leopard seemed to load ok from that point on. Strangely enough the Vista CD was corrupted, so not sure how that worked.

A couple pointers that other users might run into:
==Installing Punk's Nvidia installer seemed to work (after going into Terminal and removing NVDAResman.kext), but I was stuck w/ 1024x768 resolution, and the proper driver didn't seem to load. JCarcinogen's seemed to work better for me, with the 8400GS coming up in the System Profiler.

==I feel like I'm kinda stuck right now w/ my unsupported Intel Wireless N Card. Looking forward to seeing progress in those respective threads.

This was my first time working with the MacOS to this level, and I'm glad that these resources were around!

Thanks again!

Boot with -s option, and delete the AppleIntelCPUManagement.kext

If you can't do it because it gives a kernel panic try to do it with the Intall DVD running the Terminal.

How's your bluetooth working out? ;)

Macgirl has been a great help! Thank you.

I haven't got the AppleIntelCPUManagement.kext... and only one error of Firewire.

Re: AUDIO
Hi all,
especially to those with the xps m1530 who have gotten it to work.. specifically... HOW??

It took me 2 days to get dual boot vista osx going with a working bootloader and have gotten video drivers, but my audio is non-existent. dell diagnostics says that it is a sigmatel stac 92xx. i have tried EVERY linux codec dump on taruga's appleHDA page that starts with 92...., so please don't point me there, and if so, also know i have dropped the dumps into versions 1.16 (as stated in the first thread on audio) and 1.20. Miraculously the azalia package has enabled the volume bar to appear, and songs can now play in iTunes, so some sort of audio device must be recognized as this was not true before, but it is not working. Admittedly, i am a n00b, but these posts and the internet resources out there have enabled me to get this far, i know i can finish it.

Who has gotten the audio to work on a m1530? and what did you do?

also, i'm not sure, but i think my reboot used to work until i installed the azalia pkg. anyone else?

To be honest, I didn't have any bluetooth devices to pair with the computer so I never looked at it... When I did check it , no HW was listed.

http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=15474
has a little section on Bluetooth that seems to recommend changing the firmware while in Vista (downgrading). I'll try it out and post results as soon as I have something to test

edit:
--Just wanted to ask: Been noticing that everytime I reboot/shutdown it freezes with the screen off, but not quite shutting down all the way (power still going to the bluetooth indicator and doesn't reset). I have to hold down the power button to fully power it off. I thought I read something about it, but my searches are coming up empty. Any help with this one?

--Also installed the PowerManagement.bundle from the above links (v137_1) but nothing coming up for the battery. Odd that iAtkos installer had this working =(

I believe that is for the former bluetooth hardware. The 350 not the 355. But it won't hurt trying I guess.



Same here, it has to do with the nvidia drivers, so hopefully it will work when 10.5.2 proper are out.

The thing about the battery has to do with the PowerManagement.bundle and AppleACPIPowerSource.kext, but this kext is not loaded if the "OSBundleLibraries" don't match with AppleACPIPlatform and IOACPIFamily, this kext is inside the AppleACPIPlatform as a Plugin, so edit the Info.plist and make the versions match.

Hi, I installed iATKOS 1.0i with working NVIDIA graphics and sound through headphones. Great guide!

However, my Bluetooth doesn't seem to work. The only customizations I chose during install were the Darwin options, and I didn't bother to check the other ones. Were there Bluetooth drivers I had to include during install?

I proceeded to install Vista on the 2nd partition, and after tweaking the bootloader with EasyBCD, I was able to finally boot back into OS X. While I was on Windows I noticed that my Bluetooth hardware wasn't detected--what the hell?

Well, other than that, it's working great. I really want to get Bluetooth working though, so please help!

My 1390 card arrived yesterday in the mail. I've plugged it into the WWAN slot of my m1530 (in between Ultra-wide-band and Wifi slots). So now i have two wifi cards plugged in.

And now I have network access... in fact, I'm posting this form Leopard.

no idea ?

Hi ahhhswitch!!!!

I have the xps m1530 and I have pretty much EVERYTHING working just fine (even the Blu Ray drive and sound)
The built-in speakers and the left headphone jack are working properly.
I used the Kalyway DVD by the way, to install leopard on my laptop

To get the sound card working this is what I did:

* I downloaded the AppleHDAPatcher_v1.16.app to apply the codecdump9228_rev1 (you can find them both on the forums, I don have the links rigth now)
* To apply the codecdump you just have to drag it on the AppleHDAPatcher and thats it.

And that was it for me!!!

I hope you get your issue solved

Cheers!!!

BY THE WAY!!! Mac Girl!! THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR HELP!!! I am already your fan. Muchas Gracias

still no luck with the sound.

not a single codec dump works for me. therefore, i am attempting to get my own codec dump with knoppix, if that doesn't work, I'll have to look into the kexts. All i know for sure is that both the iATKOS and Kalyway versions run fine on my machine, and neither allows me to install the appleHDA patch.

perhaps my machine is diff. as i'm in canada?? highly doubt it. shipped from the u.s.
ven id is 8384 and dev id is 7616, same as in the codec dumps.
address is 0 in the dumps, could this be the problem? where would i find my address?

here is my patched AppleHDA.kext, try it.

Although I don't have ALCinjext anymore.

Thought I should mention that Taruga has a file for STAC9228 that works better now, check out the AppleHDA forum.

IT WORKED, FINALLY SOUND THRU SPEAKERS YAY

See Taruga's AppleHDA Thread, also the link to the kext is in first post.

You do not need ALCinject if you are using the gfx string.

Hello MacGirl..


I Installed the iAktos on a M1530, and then ask me for restart....and apeears de the logo of apple that is loading but it Freeze any Idea why?
I followed the guides step by step... What I m doing Wrong?

I'm on uphucks EFI so I dont know if the GFX string's will work for me.... Would they?

Anyways.. use Kext Helper for best results... (attached)

thx macgirl,

i replaced my kext's with yours, but no luck. forgot to back mine up too, so now i'm reinstalling. It just states when I start that 'system extension cannot be used' 3 times, to inform me that alcinject.kext, applehda.kext/contents/plugins/IOHDAFamily.kext + appleHDAcontroller.kext are installed improperly.

am i overthinking this???

it seems most ppl have just run the hda patcher v1.16, dropped in a codec dump and voila.

basically i am using either kalyway or iATKOS, unzip the patcher on the desktop, drag in the codec, and no matter what it states that i have an unidentified/undeteced codec. Is there a FAQ on this? and also, is there an FAQ or guide to getting a linux dump? I just tried to run cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#0 mydump.txt and neither file is found or created.

has anyone else had a problem with the taruga codec dumps? windows just states my card is a sigmatel 92xx, is it possible i have something diff. than the 9228? vendor and device id are identical.

xps m1530
c2d t7500

Hi macgirl, first of all thanks very much for this awesome guide.I have an m1330 and with your guide now i have a nearly perfect install(i bought an dell 1490 for wifi) except power down, stop and reboot :(Do you think that there is a hope that they working with 10.5.2 upgrade?Another little question...Can you send me the old kext for audio,beacuse with the lastest you have posted, my speaker works,but when i plug my earphone they don't stop play. Becausei work in a very silent place i prefer the old kext and audio only trough earphone.Thank you very much.IceloopSorry for maybe stupid question about audio..Only now i discover that if you can go to system preference and sound,in output tab you can choose the earphone audio output that mute the speaker,and you can ear the audio from right jack earphone! Thanks againIceloop

Just 1 post below of the one where I attached my already patched kext Superhai tell us about a new kext for STAC9228, neither of those need DeviceIDs because its patchs, try the new one you can control speakers and headphones, and Mic works. no nned to use the patcher, see Tarugas thread, I comented this on first post.


The kext you are asking is in the psot #33, a few post above.

But you don't need that anymore, the new kext can make the headphones only if you choose them from the system preferences, but you need to use the second jack (middle), also Mic works (but only from jack).

You can go into System Preferences -> Audio -> Output Device and switch, and then use the second headphone output instead.

Any idea why the mute no longer works?
Ooh! Is there a way to make the mute button switch to the headphones?

AFAIK mute never worked with STAC9228 codec.

Macgirl, you are awesome. Thanks for all your hard work.

I've got an m1330 here with Speedstep capability installed just fine, but I can't get both Speedstep and Battery status to work together. I definitely don't have the technical skills to figure this out, so does anyone have any tips on how this could be accomplished?
Thanks.

Hmmm... I'm still having a problem with the sound on my m1330. This is the first time I've tried to do anything with kexts, so please bear with me... I downloaded the two kexts that macgirl attached to the first page and tried installing them with Kext Helper, I also pulled AppleAzaliaAudio.kext out of /system/library/extensions. I can see the "internal speakers" option available in the System Preferences/Sounds, but I'm still not getting any sound out of my speakers.

Can anyone shed some light on what I'm missing.

(BTW - I installed iAtkos 1.0i r2, and the only option I added during install was the EFI option.)

Thanks!

Orijnal

I'm having the same problem as Orijnal. I'm using iAtkos too, and I had previously set up the headphone port to work.

Hello

I have installed the ToH, in my XPS M1530, The 8600 works, the sound works, the webcam and bluetooth works and the battery inditactor works.

But I only can use the Leopard.
The only way I can use vista is booting with Gparted and put my other HDD to boot.

How can I doo the dual bootin?
And 1 other thing, I only can boot with the leopard bootcd. How can I start leopard without the bootcd?


Thanks... and sorry for my english...

Did you copy the PowerManagement bundle from speedstep package or other?

Does the AppleACPIPowerSource kext is loaded?
You can see with System Profiler under extensions or on Terminal with kextstat command.


There are several reports about the samee issue, even I had no sound this morning, I erased the extensions cache rebooted and get sound again.

We are waiting for Taruga's answers.



Here are some guides for dual booting and fix the bootloader:

Just a sidenote, if you use the darwin-EFI from iATKOS you can't use the hex string in com-apple.boot.plist, but need to either use ALCinject or install netkas darwin-efi.
