icedtrip Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 So, if I were to walk into an Apple Store tomorrow, and put a USB flash key into a new MacBookPro, is there anything on the display models that would keep me from copying the Extensions folder? Curious soley for educational purposes of course.

As long as Jason Chen quoted Jobs correctly ("The MacBooks ship today to hit stores tomorrow."), I'll run by the store on my way home tomorrow and see what is on the new MacBooks. Let me know of any others than the ones mentioned.

Let me know of any others than the ones mentioned. I think NV40hal is not needed. Anyway, just copy them. I wonder that whether new Macbook Pro arrive at the stores. Only Macbook Pro have 9600GT.

rumblpak Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 just going out on a limb but it probably has something to do with this update http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/mac...reupdate12.html but getting the kexts already extracted is probably safer than force installing an update that i'm not sure what it does.

EGOvoruhk Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 i would almost venture to say that the 9600M is not the same as the 9600GT cards You are correct. 9600 GT is G94. 9600M GT is G96 It probably wont be compatible. If anything, you'll only be able to use the kext with other G96 chips: 9200GS, 9400GT, 9500 GT, 9600M GS/GT, 9700M GT Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/131204-new-macbooks-finally-support-9xxx-so-now/#findComment-931402 Share on other sites More sharing options...

icedtrip Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 Glad I called the Apple Store ahead of going in. The new books aren't on display today, but should be tomorrow. It'll be tougher for me to run by there tomorrow, but I'll try to see what I can do. Since they can be purchased today, we need to find someone that can pull the kexts off of their new purchase. Otherwise, I'll see what I can do tomorrow.
