Well, for the GMA 950 the stock kexts from iPC 10.5.6 work, so I will include a installer for the Intel GMA 950 driver I used. If it doesn't work then go look at this post, http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=127615 it will at least get you more resolutions. Make sure to try the one I included first though.

thanks for the link...

I got it working using an efi string and the sleep display solution (and just in case I have the expose corner enabled too) and the stock Snow Leopard kexts.

also Big... HUGE thanks to TheGreatDeceiver... dude without your posts I would have done nothing :D

 

if anyone needs detailed instructions... drop me a line and I will create a topic for that laptop model.

 

I am soo happy... even got my external 24" display to work.

 

p.s. dell 640m rulez :( only that stupid video ruins the experience.

How how how?! I've been trying! I made a efi string In Leo and put that in my boot.plist and then I didn't add any extra drivers that's gfx related and it will Install perfectly and when I boot with -v or -v arch=i386 and no errors occur it just goes to a black screen.

 

What should I do!!
