floydiananalysis Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 I have a Lenovo ThinkPad T61 with the following hardware: Intel T9300 2.5 GHz processor Vista Ultimate 32-bit 4 GB RAM Intel GM965 Chipset Nvidia Quadro NVS 140M 128 MB 160 GB SATA HD Intel 4965AGN WiFi Bluetooth 82566MM Gigabit LAN "ThinkPad Modem" (not that I need it...) SoundMax Integrated Digital HD Audio What do I have to do to get OS X on it? I own a Leopard disc from the days of having a MacBook (before I got rid of it because it fell apart and I got a shiny new ThinkPad instead). Which distro of OSx86 would work with my hardware? I would want to dual-boot Vista and Leopard. Thanks in advance guys.

floydiananalysis Posted May 2, 2008 Author Share Posted May 2, 2008 But will OS X play nice with the Nvidia Quadro NVS 140M video card? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/102536-leopard-on-an-lenovo-t61/#findComment-732306 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Vandez Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 Hi there, I have the same machine that you own and I am looking to see whether Mac OS is compatible with it or not, can you please let me know whether you had any success installing 10.5.* on the T61 or not.

KasaK Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 Well, I have the same Lenovo that you guys have and for now I wouldn't recomend installing Kalyway 10.5.2 for the followin: 1- No video support for Quadro NVS 140M (Could get it working with an intel driver and it looks terribly bad) 2- No sound support. 3- No wireless or wired support. The three main devices are not supported. We'd better wait for a future release. BTW I already installed it and didn't work for me.

JustInSane Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 Lenovo T61 ethernet card works (it's the intel device 8086:1049 rev3), using the kext attached to the first post of this thread: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=130425. The audio kext attached to that post also works. Tested with jas 10.5.2, and the patched kexts from jakal82.
