gregknac Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 My setup 2.66GHz P4 506 w/ SSE3, Intel D101GGC motherboard w/ ATI x200 chipset, 512MB of RAM with 2 IDE HDs on IDE channel 0 with OS X and XP installed on master drive (i have not tried serial ata) On IDE channel 1 I have a Sony DVD+-R/RW and high speed CD burner (I think its a panasonic, I'll check later), genaric NEC chipset firewire PCI card, genaric Ali chipset PCI USB 2.0 card, Orange Micro USB to bluetooth adapter. What works USB 2.0, onboard ethernet, IDE, both the genaric PCI USB 2.0 and Firewire card work, genaric USB bluetooth What doesn't work Onboard sound, onboard video card does not support QE or CI, OpenGL is very slow, cannot play games What I have not tested Serial ATA Burning the disk All iso files for osx must be burned in nero or other windows burning program and will not work properly if burned in OS X using Toast. 10.4.3 install disk showed a kernel panic when burned in Toast but not with Nero. 10.4.4/10.4.5 would install and then show an error saying "Please try installing again" at the end when burned with Toast, but worked like a charm when burned in Nero 6. Also I burned the images onto a DVD+RW at 2.4x This had worked for others and I found that it made the disks work without any problems. USB The first problem I ran into was after booting up from the 10.4.4/10.4.5 ISO was it would not boot up with anything PS2 installed. So I tried USB only but then the mouse and keyboard would not work. After some messing around I just had to disable legacy USB in the BIOS. This got me to through the install screens and my keyboard and mouse worked without any problems. ATA drivers, "waiting for root device" this is a MUST Using the instructions here, ATI ATA drivers, you will need to install these drivers before you restart the computer after the original install or you may get a "waiting for root device" error. It also will speed up your disk access and write times quite a bit. Repair Permissions If you change any system files in the Extensions folder you MUST repair the permissions before you reboot. I found it better to manually do this in terminal using the following commands: su chown -R root:wheel /System/Library/Extensions/ chmod -R 755 /System/Library/Extensions/ If I use disk utility to repair permissions it sometimes would break the onboard ethernet. Using terminal is the only way to make sure this gets done right. Sound I used a genaric USB sound card that I found on ebay for $9 after shipping. It did not work with the 10.4.5 AppleUSBAudio.kext but if you replace it with the one from 10.4.3 it should work like a charm. Video Koverg patch does not work, you will need a PCIe graphics card at this point to get QE and CI to work. I just got this graphics card in the mail. With unmodified ati9700 kexts it works right out of the box with CI and QE. Using the Callisto frame buffer, here, most of the screen artifacts are gone, but I still have mouse issues. But I can play SimCity 4 so im happy now.

gregknac Posted May 9, 2006 Author Share Posted May 9, 2006 np, i just bought this board from a friend without knowing anything about it except that it would support a pentium D in the future if I wanted to upgrade. There was no information on here about this board a month ago when I started but since I built this computer to run OS X 90% of the time I figured I slap this together for other people. Plus I've been on a mac since I was 5 and on OS X since the public beta when it became my primary OS. I know enough about it to make this a bit easier so if you have any other questions or if your new to the OS just ask. My x300SE HM video card just shipped, it was 30.99 after shipping from newegg heres a link to it. From what I have seen on here this card is the lowest cost one we can get to have CI and QE working. I gave up on our onboard video. I get this card in the mail on the 11th at the latest so I'll update about it as soon as I get it (or within 10 mins since im going to put it in right away) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JulioM Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 Hey there!! Im running under the D101GGC Intel board with a Pentium D 2.8 gig ram with Sata disks, and an NVidia 256 GeForce 6800 xtreme edition. the 10.4.3 didnt detect the ps2 ports apparently, the mouse cant be moved nor can I type. the 10.4.4 / 10.4.5 update displayed a dialog which disappeared to quickly to read what it said, and it shutdown, just like that . going to try with the integrated video card and with an ide disk, will try to download the latest 10.4.6 to tell you all folks! hopefully with Lan and audio , who knows maybe my next post will be written in Safari!

gregknac Posted August 7, 2006 Author Share Posted August 7, 2006 To answer both JulioM and Damian... To fix that I had to burn 10.4.5 on the DVDRW at the lowest speed setting, it was a problem with the burn. Also make sure that the HDD and DVD drive are both set as master on different IDE busses and make sure nothing else is plugged into them. Dont trust cable select as it can still screw things up. It could be the SATA drive thats causing it too. Unless you know that something will work in OS X, remove or disable it until you get to the bare setup until you get everything installed, it makes it quite a bit easier. Always install using IDE and onboard video with this board first. Then try to look at other posts for people with the same hardware and see how they got the addons to work.. DO NOT USE PS2!!! It wont work. Also dont forget to disable Legacy USB support. This makes it a pain in the ass if you do a dual boot because you need PS2 to control the boot screen from windows but then if you leave the PS2 keyboard or mouse installed it wont work and your OS X will crash.

JaS Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 Burning the disk All iso files for osx must be burned in nero or other windows burning program and will not work properly if burned in OS X using Toast. 10.4.3 install disk showed a kernel panic when burned in Toast but not with Nero. 10.4.4/10.4.5 would install and then show an error saying "Please try installing again" at the end when burned with Toast, but worked like a charm when burned in Nero 6. Also I burned the images onto a DVD+RW at 2.4x This had worked for others and I found that it made the disks work without any problems. Please correct this info as Toast burns all my Os X install discs fine.I am not sure what the problem was for you.I just dont want ppl thinking they can not burn install discs with Toat in os x.

siddharth Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 The D101GGC has Realtek ALC861 based onboard sound. It can be made to work by following any of the below mentioned guides: - 1) AppleAzaliaAudio.kext Patching: - Step 1: Backup AppleAzaliaAudio.kext Step 2: Edit AppleAzaliaAudio.kext In a terminal window, type: cd /System/Library/Extensions sudo pico AppleAzaliaAudio.kext/Contents/Info.plist Search for IOHDAudioCodecVendorID (Press Ctrl + W) Change <string>0x10ec0880</string> to <string>0x10ec0861</string> Press Ctrl + O to Save, then Ctrl + X to Exit sudo pico AppleAzaliaAudio.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AppleAzaliaController.kext/Contents/Info.plist Search for IOPCIPrimaryMatch (Press Ctrl + W) Change <string>0xNNNN8086</string> to <string>0x437B1002</string> (Where NNNN are any characters) Press Ctrl + O to Save, then Ctrl + X to Exit Step 3: Cleanup the System sudo diskutil repairpermissions / sudo chown -R root:wheel AppleAzaliaAudio.kext sudo chmod -R 755 AppleAzaliaAudio.kext cd /System/Library sudo rm -rf Extensions.mkext Extensions.kextcache Reboot and you'll have sound out of 2 channels. 2) AppleHDA Patching - http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=32859 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris lopo Posted November 26, 2007 Share Posted November 26, 2007 i have onboard video card and i want to change resolution, now i have only 1024x768, what i have to do? thanks Here I am trying to do this again. Once a year I try to install (maybe the Xmas spirit?) Well: Using Myzar 10.4.5 (I tried JaS 10.4.6 and 10.4.8 and Uphuck 10.4.9 without success) So what we need: IN THIS PARTICULAR CASE don't patch the ATI ATA in the beginning, I will explain later my problem. The Hardware: Motherboard: Intel D101GGC Video: PCI-e ATI X300/SE The release: Myzar's 10.4.5 The drivers: Sound: Azalia Audio Video: koverg or here (koverg worked for me perfectly) Lan is working out of the box, doesn't need patch. Now the problem: ATA Driver. I've tried this method using this kext, but one thing is not right: - check the permission: chown -R root:wheel /System/Library/Extensions/AppleOnBoardATA.kext chmod -R 755 /System/Library/Extensions/AppleOnBoardATA.kext There is not any "AppleOnBoardATA.kext" in "/System/Library/Extensions/". So, I delete "AppleGenericATA" and "AppleOnBoardATA" from "IOATAFamily.kext/Contents/Plugins"/ and the system crashes in the first boot. I've done this a few times to be sure that was not my mistake. It seems it's not. Any help? fumocamel: Edit* this file: /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.Apple.Boot.plist Include the following code: <key>Graphics Mode</key> <string>1280×1024×32</string> *If you are not into terminal, just double click on <Your HD>/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/ and copy com.Apple.Boot.plist to the desk, edit the file using any Text Editor, save (Command + S), quit (Command + Q) and copy back to /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/. By this time your password will be required. Reboot your system and let's see what happens. The worst thing that can happen is you get 1024x768 again.
