Fine-Tuning a New Hack

I'm practically *literally* in the home stretch of getting this Hack project flawless. I have vanilla SL installed and patched to 10.6.4, audio (VoodooHDA) is working), as is the onboard gigabit (RTL-8169E; this is why this board made the cut in the first place). The video is the last major hurdle. (And no, I am not relying on the onboard Intel G41 graphics for that; I already had an AMD HD5450 512 MB PCIe Gen2 card to handle that chore, as the mobo itself replaced the older ASUS P5N-EM HDMI that failed last month.)

 

I have a DSDT extracted/compiled using DSDTse; the issue is finding exactly what mods I need to make to get the GPU sorted. Worse, with my poor luck, the myHack site (home of lspci for OS X) is deader than my old motherboard (so I can't pin down exactly where my GPU shows up (to see if I need the -pci1 workaround).

 

Therefore, I'm asking other owners of this motherboard (or other G41 owners that went with discrete graphics) to let me know of any issues on that score, especially with my particular GPU choice (however, issues with AMD GPUs with this chipset in general are also useful). Practically all the DSDT ptaches I've seen/heard of are for much higher-end hardware (as opposed to the lowly G41).
