Hello everyone, been lurking here in the forums for quite sometime and just waiting for the considerable amount of knowledge and resource to start installing one.

 

I am new to OSX, so i don't have that much knowledge about some mac stuff...

 

I recently succeeded in installing a distro from iPC. The install went fine.

 

The specs are;

 

Laptop PC, Asus W1N

 

1.7 GHz Pentium M, SSE2

80 Gb HDD IDE

AC97 Audio

2 Gb 333 MHz RAM

ATI Mobility Radeon 9600/9700 AGP

Marvell Yukon Gigabit Ethernet

Intel Pro Wireless 2200 NIC

Ricoh Card Reader

Philips TV Tuner

i855PM chipset

 

used Vodoo kernel 9.5

Natit

never installed kext for IPW2200 from install cd

 

Problems so far;

 

No audio from internal speakers, only from headset, from pref pane, no internals are displayed only line out.

 

Resolution is 1024 x 768, i should get 1680 x 1050 (no kext for ATI Radeon Mob 9600 available).

 

Never tested the Ricoh memory card reader.

 

No sleep function.

 

 

Can anyone point me to the right direction where I can get some kext to improve my video?

 

 

So far I never tried to update to 10.5.7... My lappy is around four years old already, but its a realiable notebook and had never let me down thru all these years. I want to see it flex its muscles on a new OS.

 

Thanks to people who one way or another have painstakingly put time and effort and all the resources for us to experience OSX...
