someranomdguy Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 I'm trying to follow this tutorial from osx86 wiki Nvidia GeForce 8600M GS 512 -- Display requires driver installation and modification of info.plist to work at full resolution and with VGA-out. Mirror function still doesn't work properly, but forces main display to VGA-out. Install Universal NVidia Driver (http://zack.phatoproductions.com/downloads/mac/NVidia-Universal-Installer.mpkg.rar) Right Click /System/Library/Extensions/NVInject.kext choose "Show Package Contents" Copy Info.plist to ~/Desktop Open Info.plist copy with Plist Editor Replace NVCAP string with 04000000 00000100 02000000 00000007 00000000 Save copy of info.plist and copy back to NVInject.kext contents Change permissions of NVInject: "sudo chown -R root:wheel /System/Library/Extensions/NVinject.kext" "sudo chmod -R 755 /System/Library/Extensions/NVinject.kext" Run Disk Utility and repair permissions on disk. Delete Extension Caches and Kernel Caches before rebooting "sudo rm -R /System/Library/Extensions.mkext /System/Library/Extensions/Caches/" -- Reboot with -f just in case. The only problem is when I go and open the file Info.Plist there isn't any NVCAP. Does anyone know the exact string of text I need to replace with the new one? Thanks!
