Júlio César Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 Can anyone indicate a driver or DSTS or anythink like this for enable GTX 460 no my motherboard? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbl03 Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 GTX460 should be supported by the latest Chimera, without needing to install additional drivers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mm67 Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Use this for Snow Leopard : http://www.nvidia.com/object/quadro-macosx...f01-driver.html, Lion has built in drivers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Júlio César Posted August 27, 2011 Author Share Posted August 27, 2011 I tried, but says: your system do not support the nvidia sollution. I tried install all packages inside but no success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbl03 Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Are you running Lion? If so, download Chimera bootloader using [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url], and you probably have to re-install Lion if that doesn't work. If you are running 10.6.8 or older, then you can try tonymac's drivers - http://www.tonymacx86.com/1010110101/tonym...pdate-2.1.0.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snakeyez11 Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 I tried, but says: your system do not support the nvidia sollution. Check your smbios.plist in /Extra. You'll need to set it up as a MacPro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gringo Vermelho Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Or you can remove the model requirement by editing distribution.dist inside the installer package with textedit. It's very simple, copy the installer off of the .dmg and right click to see the contents. Once you have distribution.dist open in textedit it should be obvious what to do.

Júlio César Posted August 28, 2011 Author Share Posted August 28, 2011 Ok, i edited that file, and i have been installed, but still not working, no other resolutions just 1024x768, and some graphics stuff not working. I have the Last Snow Leopard Update too. And i cant move to Lion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gringo Vermelho Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Set GraphicsEnabler=y in your /Extra/com.apple.Boot.plist. Note that if you're using the new Chameleon 2.0 this file must be renamed to org.chameleon.Boot.plist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Júlio César Posted August 28, 2011 Author Share Posted August 28, 2011 Im using Graphics Enabler, and Chameleon 2.5 I have been set the GraphicsEnabler Option by System Preferences => Chameleon But still not working Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gringo Vermelho Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 Unless you are from the future, you are not using Chameleon 2.5, you are using Chameleon 2.0 RC5. Did you install the Quadro 4000 drivers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Júlio César Posted August 29, 2011 Author Share Posted August 29, 2011 Yes you right i'm using this driver http://www.nvidia.com/object/quadro-macosx...f01-driver.html and Chameleon 2.0 RC5. But not working Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gringo Vermelho Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 Weird. It should be working for you. I have a P5Q series board and a GTX 460 too. GraphicsEnabler + the nvidia Quadro 4K drivers work perfectly. Can you post a screenshot of the "Graphics" part from System Profiler? Run Terminal and enter kextstat > ~/Desktop/kextstat.txt Attach the kextstat.txt to your next post as well. Use the full editor to attach files to your post.

Júlio César Posted August 29, 2011 Author Share Posted August 29, 2011 Its Chameleon 2.0 RC4 my mistake, but i think this doesnt matter kextstat.txt com.apple.Boot.plist.txt DSDT.aml.txt smbios.plist.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gringo Vermelho Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 Removing... PciRoot 1 ...from your /Extra/com.apple.Boot.plist should take care of your video card issue. Your smbios.plist has your Hackintosh configured as a MacBook Pro. On a desktop PC with a Core 2 Quad CPU you should be using MacPro3,1. Use this:MacPro3_1_smbios.plist.zip Note that it's a Chameleon 2.0 compliant smbios.plist with "manufacter" renamed to "manufacturer". Chameleon 2.0 is attached in my reply below. The smbios.plist also doesn't contain a serial number. There's a tutorial over on Prasys' blog on how to create your own "authentic" serial: http://prasys.info/2009/11/understanding-mac-serial-number/ Also you might want to change the SMC version number in your fakesmc.kext to 1.25f4 so that it matches that of a real MacPro3,1 running the firmware version that's in the attached smbios.plist. Prasys' blog has a tutorial on how to edit fakesmc.kext as well: http://prasys.info/2009/11/editing-fakesmc/ Upgrade to the latest version of fakesmc first. You can find it over at the ProjectOSX forums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Júlio César Posted August 31, 2011 Author Share Posted August 31, 2011 Sorry for the delay, well, are working and are not working, now i got a Black Empty Screen after Boot, i tried remove the Graphics Mode from boot.plist but not worked any suggestions?

Gringo Vermelho Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 Did you really remove PciRoot 1 ? Additionally, remove the following from your com.apple.Boot.plist, they are not necessary: DSDT /Extra/DSDT.aml (this is the default location for DSDT.aml so no reason to specify it) SMBIOSdefaults Yes (this is the Chameleon default so no reason to specify it..who the hell writes these com.apple.Boot.plists anyway?) This is redundant and can be removed: UHCIreset Yes Because you also have: USBBusFix Yes Which enables both UHCI reset, EHCI ownership takeover and the legacy USB fix. So use one or the other. I don't know which one(s) is/are required on Intel ICH7 (your mobo uses the ICH7 chipset) but I do remember that ICH7 is supposed to have some USB issues. There's a thread over on the ProjectOSX forums specifically on this subject, try to find it. Finally, add this: EthernetBuiltIn Yes To further familiarize yourself with these options and boot flags, you (and all creators of Hackintosh distros) should read boothelp.txt included with the Chameleon bootloader - find it in the docs folder attached below. You have arch=i386 in the kernel flags string - your hardware should be perfectly capable of running Snow Leopard in 64-bit mode with no issues - in fact this might even play a part in why you get a black screen on boot, since AFAIK the Mac Pro models (MacPro3,1, 4,1 and 5,1) that can use the Quadro 4000 video card all run 10.6.x in 64-bit kernel and drivers mode by default. Try removing it - leave the kernel flags string empty, like this: Kernel Flags Upgrade to Chameleon 2.0 - note that the latest version requires /Extra/com.apple.Boot.plist to be renamed to org.chameleon.Boot.plist. Once you have Chameleon 2.0 installed and working, get rid of the following kernel extensions: OpenHaltRestart PlatformUUID (both are obsoleted by Chameleon 2.0) NullCPUPowerManagement (you don't need it, your hardware is compatible with native CPU powermanagement) Then follow the instructions here to enable native powermanagement via org.chameleon.Boot.plist: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=225766 You may need to dump your SSDT tables and add DropSSDT=y to /Extra/org.chameleon.Boot.plist. Experiment. Read the thread to learn more. Additionally you might need to do this: http://www.projectosx.com/forum/index.php?...post&p=2532 I'll repeat: Make sure you are running the Quadro 4000 drivers from June 24 2011 that you can download from nvidia's website. Until you have those drivers installed you must boot with GraphicsEnabler=n. You can type this at the Chameleon boot prompt. Otherwise your Hackintosh will not boot (black screen). In your kextstat, the nvidia driver versions listed are not the latest ones. Make sure your Intel on-board graphics is disabled in the BIOS and that primary graphics (or words to that effect) is set to "PEG". Do you use your serial port? I don't know anybody who does. Disable it in the BIOS so OS X doesn't load drivers for it (your kextstat says it currently does). This should shave a second or two off the boot process and remove the serial port/modem from network preferences. You can also disable the floppy drive controller and the parallel port. Chameleon 2.0 binaries, docs and default theme folders: i386.zip doc.zip default_theme.zip Manual installation guide: http://forum.voodooprojects.org/index.php/topic,649.0.html Good luck!

Júlio César Posted September 1, 2011 Author Share Posted September 1, 2011 Well mine is not mobo (your mobo uses the ICH7 chipset) I have a normal Desktop. I have been removed all the indicated keys from boot.plist. Ill now try boot with GraphicsEnabler, i no success ill boot without it. Then if not works ill upload the new Chameleon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gringo Vermelho Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 Well mine is not mobo (your mobo uses the ICH7 chipset) mobo = motherboard and yours (P5QPL-AM) has the ICH7 chipset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Júlio César Posted September 1, 2011 Author Share Posted September 1, 2011 mobo = motherboard and yours (P5QPL-AM) has the ICH7 chipset. Sorry then, the only mobo i knew is that netbooks {censored}. Well, i removed all things that you said, less the arch=i386 because it will not boot without it (I tried). About new boot manager, I read that setup instructions about chamaleon, and it is really complicated thing to do, and if i make s.h.i.t, i cant boot my pc. About new drivers i have been installed the last onces now, just need test, but i dont think that will work is something else wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gringo Vermelho Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 When changing from 32- to 64-bit mode it's a good idea to clean all the system caches first. You can do this manually or you can use 'Lion Cache Cleaner' (works fine on Leopard and Snow Leopard too) http://www.northernsoftworks.com/lioncachecleaner.html If you have any specific questions about how to install Chameleon just ask. Basically it's like this: 1. Find out where (which drive/partition) your present version of Chameleon is installed 2. Identify your partition type - GUID or MBR 3. Install boot0, boot1h & boot according to what you found in 1. and 2. The rest is up to you - theme for the GUI, which extensions you place in /Extra/Extensions, smbios.plist, org.chameleon.Boot.plist etc etc. Eject any USB flash drives, external drives and optical media, then run Terminal and type diskutil list. Post the output here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
