chris0101 Posted October 27, 2009 Author Share Posted October 27, 2009 callisto b008: Installation Ok Starting with -v: Callisto is loading. Show 8 Steps, 1280*800 *default. Black screen. On the troubleshoot.html i loaded with the zip with the Callisto.kext and CallistoHAL.kext is: Black screen on boot or on mode change The monitor has gone "Out of range" and that's what you get since the frequency range is not supported by your monitor. You can try using an alternative method of calculating and programming PLL. To enable this edit the Info.plist file of Callisto.kext and look for the key CallistoUseAltPLLMethod. Its value is by default false and you should set it to true to activate the alternative PLL method. If the above does not work, maybe you should start saving money for NVidia card? Out of range?! It's working on several X200M, and in Windows xp it does work with 1280*800,too If i change the CallistoUseAltPLLMethod the CallistoHal just initilised, no more and the pc won't boot up. I'm a little bit confused. I do all of the introductions, change id etc. chmod, chown, delete Extension.mkext. Any Ideas?
