[kevintroy]

Hi guys, im trying to follow this tutorial to get a 1366x768 resolution but I can't seem to get it to work properly, can anybody give me a step-by-step tutorial on how to do it?

I've checked and upon booting, I am definitely using Chameleon v2 RC4 my Graphics Card is a Intel GMA 4500M so this should work for me right?

 

 

this is what my com.apple.boot.plist looks like, is this correct? ive changed it in Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration and I also copied the file com.apple.boot.plist to /Extra

 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">

I can't provide you a step-by-step tutorial, but your XML file seems correct to me. Did you copied "boot" file at the root of your partition ?

 

$ cd Desktop/ChameleonMR2
$ sudo cp boot /

yup i definitely did that, do I have to boot in arch=i386 or -f -x -s etc? my computer seems to not load well when i try to boot in arch=i386 and -f etc, it can take up to 10 restarts for the wheel to start spinning on the apple screen, but on normal (64-bit) mode it loads 99% of the time first go

 

EDIT: just remembered, I have installed some graphics kexts before (it was either X4500 kexts or patched X3100, is it possible those are interfering with it?

UPDATE: I Managed to get it to work, I have the custom resolution, but now my trackpad is stuck at the top-left of the screen and my sounds don't work either, any help?

 

EDIT: Sound is now working after a 2nd restart, but mouse is still stuck on top-left of the screen
