I installed OSX86 on my new Gateway CX2724 tablet pc, but, there are some issues to fix, it works perfectly, even i can do a Dual Boot with Windows Tablet PC Edition and Mac OS X 10.4.7.

 

These are the tech specs. of the tablet:

 

Intel Centrino Duo T2050 1.6 Ghz, The 2 cores are recognized.

1024 MB DDR2 RAM (Dual Channel, 2x512) Works fine.

Intel Chipset: 945g or 945gm, i think its just the same. Works!!!!

Graphics: On board, intel 950 graphics, in the box it says 128 MB, but the card is 224 MB without overcloacking, (windows and mac) Works fine, another display supported.

Sound: Sigmatel 9250 (Not working) :idea::compress:

LAN: Gigabit card, (i think its intel) Working Great ;)

Wireless Intel PRO/Set Card Not working

Pen-Digitizer: ??

 

Everything works, unless the audio and the wireless card. (of course also is not working the digitizer)

10.4.7 JaS: Reports no audio devices

10.4.5 Maxxuss: Reports Intel HD Audio, but no more, i cannot get sound, or modify volume controls.

 

What's happening, please help. Mac runs fine :) , fine :happymac: and fine :happymac: again. Its a lot faster than Windows, so i would like to know if there's a way to get sound. :whistle::whistle::guitar::guitar::guitar::whistle::yoji::yoji: Please Help!!

I'm working on it. Just got this system with the 9250. I make no promises, but I've been able to get sound control on the output so far. no actual sound coming out though... yet.

which version of os x are you using, and, what kind of sound do you get, can you move the volume sliders?

No sound at all? Have you tried the LIne out?

Which wireless card is in it?

 

On my mx6214 i had to modify the Yukon kext to get the ethernet port properly working to get wireless working.

 

it was detecting the wireless, but due to the en0/en1 issue it thought that was the built in ethernet once i was up and running.

 

modifying the yukon in the networking family kext corrected this.

 

gateway is pretty consistent about using the same hardware.. so I have a feeling this may be case with you.

This are my Network cards. Of course wired is working.

 

Wired: Intel PRO/1000 PL Network Connection (1gb)

Wireless: Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection (54mb)

 

Still looking for a way to get the sound working?

what about the wireless network card?
