ayin Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 Hi! That's my first step with MacOS. So I have one problem. I have a NVidia graphics card and a 17' TFT monitor. I have installed the latest driver from macvidia.com. But it only gives me the resolution 800*600. But I would like to have native resolution 1280*1024. I have also tried to modify com.apple.Boot.plist with 1280*1024*32, but with no effect. Where can I change my display-settings? regards, ayin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1233666666 Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 Have you tried installing Callisto? That usually helps me (It got me my naitive 1650x1050) http://omni.starchaser.org/callisto/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That usually helps me (It got me my naitive 1650x1050) http://omni.starchaser.org/callisto/ Callisto is for ATi-Cards only, he talked about an nvidia he got... i´m stuck at a similar problem... hmm... i just got this to work on my last install, but how?! have you followed the guide in the readme? maybe there are still things that have to be done by you!

ayin Posted August 4, 2006 Author Share Posted August 4, 2006 It would be good to know, where MacOsX stores its display settings. Then I could take changes manually by writing the Vertical-Scan-rate in it. But I didn't find something similar like XF86Config nor Xconf.org Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aries77 Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 Did you try the automated installer or the manual one from MacVida? The automated one didn't work for me either. Once I tried the older version..I think 1.5 and intalled manually I got the resolution problem fixed. The manual method step by step is posted in the macvidia forum.
