Removing GTX 5XX Enabler (which files to rm?)

Hey Guys!

 

My hackie ran good with a NVIDIA GTX 560, though I got myself a Radeon for running 3D apps, which are still slow and often crashing with the gtx (chess ran smooth though ;)

 

For this I need to remove all the GTX Enabler stuff from my hackie but am not sure of which kext files actually belong to the GTX enabler (and what other stuff?). Also, I am not sure about what to change in the org.chameleon.Boot.plist - do I still need the kernel flags npci=0x2000, PCIRootUID=1, and what about the GraphicsEnabler=Yes?

 

I have a 10.7.3 on an ASUS P8H61-M LE USB 3.0 with an i7 2600 running with E.Beast, U.Beast installation, and some other kexts for LAN and Audio. The old video card is a NVIDIA GTX 560 (bulk, by Point of View Graphics) which I could run with GTX 5XX Enabler 10.7.3 + CUDADriver.pkg (4.0.21)

QE/CI: working 100%, Final Cut Pro X Hardware Acceleration working just fine, but 3D apps will crash after a while. Thats why the Radeon..

 

Thanks already for any helpful reply!

Thanks for the response!

 

NVEnabler.kext and Natit.kext are not in my s/l/e directory but maybe I can ask more precisely: Can someone confirm, that

 

 

- NVDAGF100Hal.kext

- NVDANV40HalG7xxx.kext

- NVDANV50Hal.kext

- NVDAResmanG7xxx.kext

- NVSMU.kext

 

do in fact belong to the GTX 5XX Enabler? Maybe simply just by someone with a Radeon card checking if he/she has these files in the s/l/e?

 

And maybe someone knows what other modifications this enabler performs!

 

Thanks already!

- NVDANV50Hal.kext

- NVDAResmanG7xxx.kext

- NVSMU.kext

Those are standard Nvidia driver files that come with every Apple installation.

 

Don't forget to look in /Extra/Extensions

 

OK-Update….I found a copy of the enabler package. Besides replacing all of the /S/L/E/ GeForce and NV files with different versions, it also installs an enabler ATY_Init.kext in /S/L/E/.
