Hi,

 

I have already installed Snow Leopard on my Medion Akoya Mini, it's a clone of MSI Wind, and after install it, i have installed the Intel GMA 950, and it looks good but on System Profile it don't show me if I have already activated Quartz Extreme ...

 

Intel GMA 950:

 

Chipset Model: GMA 950

Type: GPU

Bus: Built-In

VRAM (Total): 64 MB of Shared System Memory

Vendor: Intel (0x8086)

Device ID: 0x27ae

Revision ID: 0x0003

Displays:

Display:

Resolution: 1024 x 600

Pixel Depth: 32-Bit Color (ARGB8888)

Main Display: Yes

Mirror: Off

Online: Yes

Built-In: Yes

Display Connector:

Status: No Display Connected

 

Also, I opened an Unix console to test my video performance by the glxgears command that shows me easly an average FPS in 5 seconds. I remember that when I had installed Leopard it shows me 800 FPS and now with Snow Leopard shows only 200. Why is it ?

 

Sorry about my english, I'm spanish. Lot of thanks !
