ultrahang Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 just managed to get qe/ci with gfx-string on 8600GT 512MB. here are the steps in nutshell: install pc_efi v8.0 ( http://www.mediafire.com/?0xxzx0xsumg ) or chameleon boot loader (http://chameleon.osx86.hu) download the efi gfx string creator: http://forum.netkas.org/index.php/topic,64.60.html create your hex string to identify your graphics device using the tool insert the hex string into /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.Boot.plist using the tool or do it manually: <key>device-properties</key> <string>6c0200000100000001000000600200000d00000002010c00d041030a0100000......</string> the string must be in a single line if you use pc_efi from netkas and you can use multiple lines with chameleon - which is even more easier remove the NVinject.kext (or Natit.kext) from /System/Library/Extensions reboot i also included the hex string for pciroot(0x0) and pciroot(0x1) after this qe/ci is working under 10.5.3 \o/ 8600GT512MBgfxstring.tar.gz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mRusso87 Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 NVkush works. Remove NVinject Open terminal. sudo -s *password* rm -R /system/library/extensions/NVinject.kext Reboot Download - http://diabolik1605.com/DHF/ Install NVkush Restart. Hope this works (Tested on 7600GT) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oetzi Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 It didn't work for me. I've done exactly what you've said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jean-Philippe Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 GFX String for 8800GT card only by karaakeha1http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=107366&st=20 attached file: 8800_GT_com.apple.Boot.plist.zip Will this work with any 8800 GT ? Is there something to do like removing nvinject to use this boot file? Kinda confusing, lot of people talking about 7300, 7600, 8600 on this 8800 GT thread!

Hagar Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 Just an update that it seems that Nvinject can be easily fixed to work with 10.5.3 by a simple plist edit, as detailed Here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
