WhoaMan Posted April 22, 2006 Share Posted April 22, 2006 when i attempt to load these kernel extensions, the system boots but never goes graphical. i can log in using VNC though... and all seems to be working fine. under the Display preferences i can change between 1024x768 and 800x600 resolutions, as well as various refresh rates and color settings. revision ID: 2562 vender ID: 8086 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
U.C. Posted April 22, 2006 Share Posted April 22, 2006 To all who cant gor graphical in OSX after these drivers, boot with -s and repair the permissions manually using the foll commands cd / <-- press enter cd /system/library/extensions <-- press enter sudo chmod -R 755 Your Kext.kext <-- press enter sudo chown -R root:wheel Your Kext.kext <-- press enter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suspect Posted April 22, 2006 Share Posted April 22, 2006 Tried the drivers on my Dell D400 (10.4.5). They didn't work. Will keep an eye on this thread. I'm hoping some day I'll be able to use OSX on my laptop. Thanks for the work done so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miscz Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 I've tried this drivers on my Asus laptop with OSX 10.4.5, didn't work. Kexts won't load automatically except IOGraphics but I can load them with kextload (I mean no errors because they won't work that way). I have followed instructions and tried messing with kext myself. I'm wondering why does OSX report that I have 128mb ram available, I thought 64mb was maximum for 855 o_O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biff brickmeat Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 Well before when i had 10.4.1 I deleted all kexts except for appleintelintegratedgraphics.kext. And i had 1280x800, no qe but i was fine with it at the time. There is of course no 10.4.5 version of the appleintelintegratedgraphics.kext that i know of. But is there a way to compile an osx bootable kext taht essentially the same as this .kext driver from 10.4.1? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suspect Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 Has anyone tried the 855GM patch that solves the 1mb of video RAM problem on Linux? http://www.chzsoft.com.ar/855patch.tar.gz Build that and run ./855patch 32768 Not sure if it will work with OSX. I thought it was interesting that this problem is not unique to OSX. Source: http://www.chzsoft.com.ar/855patch.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chazman Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 I know that I would personally paypal 20 dollars to someone who created a driver that successfully worked for my laptop.

Biff brickmeat Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 Ok so essentiallly the drivers taht have been created will not load as far as i can see basically there is an updated 6.0 extension to all the kernel functions. Libkern Bsdkern.. etc. so we cant load non 6.0 compliant kext or am i way off>? take a look at other kexts taht DO load in osx 10.4.3-4, specifically graphics kexts. and find what the difference is between those and the appleintelintegratedgraphics.kext from 10.4.1. Cause i got dual monitor support and full 1280x800 in 10.4.1 with just that kext alone. no appleintel830 or -915. I think the target is to modify appleintelintegratedgraphics.kext from 10.4.1 to run on x.3-4 machines..... so could someone with 10.4.1 send me a copy of the appleintelintegratedgraphics.kext? This thread has a real chance of creating a working driver. If we can crack this we can crack anything. who knows whats next? so the target workaround is that 6.0 function on the 10.4.3/4 mach_kernel as far as i can see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
U.C. Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Doods the reason me or karthik have not been replying is that 1) we have exams soon read 2nd may 2) Hes working on the driver I havent chatted with him for some time now, so just relax ppl. BTW has ne one tried these on 10.4.3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pgouy Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Same here. I have a 855GM on my laptop, the drivers don't load and i can't even get native resolution (1280x768). I'd be willing to help donating $10 Can somebody at least help me in getting native resolution? PS: Running 10.4.5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viruselectriko Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 BTW has ne one tried these on 10.4.3 yes , i have 10.4.3, and didnt worked, try it multiple times, changed id, etc, only IOGraphicsFamily.kext load Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biff brickmeat Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 kurt-gnageys-computer:~ Macguiver$ sudo kextload -t /system/library/extensions/appleintel915.kext can't add kernel extension /system/library/extensions/appleintel915.kext (not a bundle) (run kextload on this kext with -t for diagnostic output) kurt-gnageys-computer:~ Macguiver$ did i just move us forewards or backwards i messed with some stuff but i got no error of it being not 6.0 kernel compatable or whatever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suspect Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 Attached is the 10.4.1 AppleIntelIntegratedGraphics.kext file. Don't know if that will help any. Edit: hmmm... attaching didn't work.

Biff brickmeat Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 thanks its always nice to have supplies. Plus this is the kext that i got my 1280x800 on with my 10.4.1 installation... now if only we could get that one to load in 10.4.4 or even .3 for that matter i have no clue where to start though... when i ran a kext load it said kext appears to be valid 21appleintelframebuffer not compatable with superclass, 13IOFramebuffer superclass changed? wierd...

miscz Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 Congratulations, it was known for a long time that 10.4.1 kexts just won't work, they have to be compiled against newer kernels. With a binary it's just a no-go. Leave it to Karthik Ramgopal, he has sources for this kext (I think) and knows his way around it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoofyHouse Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 Hi Karthik Ramgopal, did you tried something new to get a driver for Intel 855GME work, I have an IBM Thinkpad R51, anything works but no QE; I am running OSX 10.4.6 . GOOFY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biff brickmeat Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 Im not a moron im just new to coding miscz, im also trying to learn. But anyway i have heard bits and pieces from all different sources that somewhere someone got an 845/855/865 to load a kext in a version later than 10.4.1 if you search through the forum you will find it no clue on what kext it is but i was just wondering what that was about..? Was the kernel on the deadmoo image modified to load appleintelintegratedgraphics.kext? oh and i heard rumors about qe being enabled on an 855 in 10.4.1 could someone give me a quick run-through of the process, i tried the one on this forum but i had some issues, kexts would not load.

miscz Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 Nobody loaded old kext with newer OSX, it was a misunderstanding (I've searched the forum extensively). Getting QE in 10.4.1 was very easy. I just changed required fileds to 0x35828086 in AppleIntel810 (I'm not sure it was that name, but something like that) and in AppleIntelIntegratedGraphics. Then deleted kextcache, rebooted with -f and it just worked. I don't know if this old kexts are available here anymore, they weren't included on my installation disc. It mostly worked but I had to warm boot from Windows because there was too little memory for textures or at least it seemed so, it resulted in very blurry everything. I don't remember exactly but there could have been some tweaking involved to lower minimum vram requirements for Quartz Extreme (should be easy enough to find directions on this forum).

Biff brickmeat Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 i understand the basics of running 855gme with the deadmoo image. Did they load correctly on the marklar tiger realease 1 iso? if so then i understand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
