robert_ Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 hey there, the only reason why i have to keep my windows partition is the fact, that i can use the internal display, as soon as a graphics-driver is installed. i'm really sad about it is there really NO f****** way??? is there at least at way to get the vesa-mode running in a higher res. then 1024x768??? any advice is more then welcome. thanks for help. greets, robert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blade007 Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 Hi Could you let me know how you have done this. I tried quite a few times about a year ago on Vaio but had no joy so gave up and have just been trying to find solutions for getting the internal display working with the nvinject drivers. I only gave up because i couldnt stand looking at the screen at the wrong res. Cheers Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert_ Posted September 9, 2008 Author Share Posted September 9, 2008 it is not working with any driver. well, it is working but only with an external display. im still running in vesa, but i changed the resolution in com.apple.Boot.plist just add: <key>Graphics Mode</key> <string>1280x800x32</string> reboot, enjoy your resolution.

blade007 Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 Hi I have added this and it still doesnt look right. The picture should be sharp at the correct res. Also when I go in to the display properties it still states 1024x768. Have you got any other advice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blade007 Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 Also do you mean this wont work on the internal display even in vesa mode. I can get it to work on an external display fine with the drivers but for now am just trying to get it working on the internal display at 1280x800 in vesa.

robert_ Posted September 10, 2008 Author Share Posted September 10, 2008 but it worked very well for me....i edited noting else than the com.apple.Boot.plist everything is clear and sharp. dont know what could be the issue in your system. im pretty new in this whole osx86-thing btw: i wrote this entry directly under the timeout-entry, so it is on last position. maybe you check this! i dont know if the position of the entry even matters.....but it could matter.
