diggi Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 Hey errandwolfe, thanks again for all your help. I went ahead and bought a nvidia geforce 9800 GT 1GB and installed it. I don't have the garbled screen anymore, but it didn't automatically give me resolution options either. I'm going to have a look around at how to install this and message back. Thank you again for your help yesterday. I appreciate it more than you can understand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Usher Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 Sure! I am the author of the chinese page. =] First, you need these file: Version 1.6.16 in 10.6.4 ATIRadeonX2000.kext ATIRadeonX2000GA.plugin ATIRadeonX2000GLDriver.bundle ATIRadeonX2000VADriver.bundle Version 1.6.6 in 10.6.2 ATI4600Controller.kext ATIFramebuffer.kext ATISupport.kext *You can check the kext version from version.plist. ====================================== Second, you need to add devid (0x94981002) to info.plist in these files. ATI4600Controller.kext ATIRadeonX2000.kext The info.plist after editing should be like this. <key>IOPCIMatch</key> <string>0x94981002</string> Then save it. ====================================== Third, you must modify your com.apple.Boot.plist by adding the command below: <key>GraphicsEnabler</key> <string>Yes</string> You may drop the com.apple.Boot.plist from \Extra to the desktop and edit it, if the file did not exist here, then it should be located in \Library\Preferences\SystemConfiguration ====================================== Fourth, move all the kexts above to \System\Library\Extensions\ You should delete those 7 kexts in \System\Library\Extensions\, and drop the modified kexts to \System\Library\Extensions\. After that, use kext utility or other possible method to repair permissions. ====================================== Reboot, and use -f -v command to load your Mac Anything should be working if you see ** Device in slot: SLOT-1 **. I use VGA port, dual monitor not tested. But I think it will be work if you can use dual monitor in 10.6.2. Sorry for my POOR English will this still work on 10.6.6?
