Does anyone know where I can find a kext for an Intel Wireless/Pro link 5100/5200, or for Realtek Audio, or for a Nvidia 9600m GT. Also, does anyone know how to enable Quartz Extreme or Core Image? My graphics card supports it, but I can't enable it. And, does anyone know how to fix Time Machine? My build is a retail Mac OS X 10.5.6 install updated to 10.5.8. Also, an Atheros kext would help.

The Intel Pro Link Kext does not exist yet. Trust me as asoon as its up ill let everyone know.

 

Realtek Audio is giving me a problem too. I know the card is a alcbase then either 268, 885 or 889, but not of the drivers are taking.

 

Atheros as in ethernet? The kext is available by google searching for atl1e and installing via osx86 kext installer.

 

Graphics card is also easy using nvinject 1gb from the ideneb suite.

 

Remember you wont always be able to update drivers on the fly, this will most likely require several reinstalls and tests.

 

I understand the intereset in using the retail build, but you will never find the drivers you need in any one package. I have been mix and matching between kalyway, ipc, xXx and ideneb.

 

Heres my post, i update whenever i have a breakthrough

Thanks for the info. Finally I get a real answer. Since there is no wireless kexts, I can live without networking. It seems that drivers or kexts don't work for my graphics card, so I use an EFI string. But Core image and Quartz extreme refuse to be enabled. A time machine fix, or a link to one, would help my jumps from windows to mac and back again (I go back to Windows once and a while via wipe & re-install). It seems that the Aspire series does not like OSx86, and Mac OS X does not like Acer at all.

Jump for joy after getting these to work. Unfortunately, there's no driver for the wireless, but it's cheap and easy to get an Atheros or Broadcom wifi card from ebay, and OSX will pick it up easily. There's also USB dongles if you don't mind something sticking out the side of your machine.

Thanks for the links. I will try them out sometime (I am taking a break from OSx86 right now).
