kadmiff Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 I have a dv5 1139tx, And only wifi (5100) and webcam doesnt work... however I have heard that the webcam does work so Ill look into it... I have tried Kalaway 10.5.1 (but no good) But using the packages from the dv5 1100 insert on the wiki I was able to install first up Ideneb 1.4 (10.5.6) all perfect except as mentioned above..... http://wiki.osx86project.org/wiki/index.ph...DV5-1100_Series Should work for both of you...
