Hey guys,

 

I have three XW8400 running avid media composer well in Lion 10.7.4.

 

The only thing lacking is Quartz Extreme. I have to boot in "arch=i386" because of the nVidia conflict and of course laggy video.

 

I've searched the net for two hours and looked over many posts. Looks like the only viable option to get Q/E on these machines in EFI String from an 8800.

 

I assume I'd disable Graphics Enabled = yes in org.chameleon.Boot.plist.

 

Does this seem like the proper solution?

 

Anyone have a success story with either of these cards in Lion?

 

Thanks much,

Using my DSDT injection method with the Nvidia Mac OS X Drivers seems to work for the majority of Nvidia GPUs.
