rlf Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Well, you should have remained patient and not removed the files. If we needed some of them, they are now gone. I was writing you a procedure to implement the fix. That was why I was asking questions. Now, I'm not sure the procedure will work. I guess you should go to http://phill84.org/2008/12/gma-915900-with-qeci-on-leopard-1055/ and download and install the files. Use Kext Helper http://cheetha.net/ to install the GMA950 files. Double-click the GMA950.zip to reveal a folder named GMA950. Inside the folder are the files to install. To use Kext Helper, double-click it to open it. Drag the files to the top window. Type your password in the bottom field. Click "EASY INSTALL". For the OpenGL.framework, you have to do it manually. Unzip the OpenGL.framework file and place it on your Desktop. Open Terminal Type: cd Type: cd Desktop Type: sudo mv OpenGL.framework /System/Library/Frameworks/ (give your password - the cursor won't move - there will be no feedback - just type the password and <Enter>) Type: cd /System/Library/Frameworks Type: sudo chown -R root:wheel OpenGL.framework Type: sudo chmod -R 755 OpenGL.framework Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jnxjn Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 rlf, i copied the files to the folder like it saied on the link you gave me but i get the error "System extension cannot be used The system extension "/System/Library/Extensions/AppleIntelGMA950.kext" was installed improperly and cannot be used. Please try reinstalling it, or contact the product's vendor for an update." what should i do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rlf Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 The first thing you can do is stop asking for my help and then running off and doing things on your own!!! Reinstall the files like I describe in posting #78 above and things should be fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jnxjn Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 sorry, when i wrote the previous post i didnt receive your post yet, i follow your instructions, lemme reboot now.. rlf, i get the blue screen now, what should i do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rlf Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 You have installed all the GMA950 files using Kext Helper and you have installed OpenGL.framework using the procedure I outlined and you still have the blue screen. Correct? I wonder if it has anything to do with removing all of the AppleIntel* files. I would resinstall iDeneb in order to get the AppleIntel* files back. Then I would follow this procedure to install the GMA950 files and the OpenGL.framework even though you have a blue screen: Download the file from http://www.sendspace.com/file/xdvdbd Unzip the file "gma.zip" and put the folder named "g" on the flash drive IPEN. Insert IPEN into the computer. Boot the iDeneb install DVD and open the Terminal window: Type: cd /Volumes/iDeneb Type: mv /Volumes/IPEN/g/AppleIntel* System/Library/Extensions Type: mv /Volumes/IPEN/g/Open* System/Library/Frameworks Type: chown -R root:wheel System/Library/Extensions Type: chmod -R 755 System/Library/Extensions Type: chown -R root:wheel System/Library/Frameworks Type: chmod -R 755 System/Library/Frameworks/OpenGL.framework Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rlf Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 If the procedure fails - if you still get a blue screen, there is one more thing to try, but it involves reinstalling iDeneb again! So, if the procedure fails, 1. Install iDeneb 2. Download the files on this page: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=141549 3. Install those files using Kext Helper I will be away from my computer for two hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jnxjn Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 rlf, i reinstall the system but im unable to copy the files from the pen to the folder you mention, when i type "cd /Volumes/IPEN/" i get the following response "cd: /Volumes/IPEN/: No such file or directory" what would be the correct directory for the IPEN? i've tried to mount the device but i get the message "mount: /dev/disks1: unknow special file or file system."

rlf Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Just type the command "mount" and look for IPEN in the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jnxjn Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 rlf, i followed your #84 post and i've deleted all AppleIntel*, boot the system and install those two kexts ElliottAppleIntelGMA950LegacyEnabler.kext.zip and AppleIntelIntegratedFramebuffer.kext.zip using Kext Helper b7 and the system booted normally, i go to the System Profiler->Graphics/Displays and it says Chipset Model is GMA 950, is this ok, or i should try to follow the other post?

rlf Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 If it is working, then that is good. BUT, no where did it say to delete all AppleIntel* kexts. It said it wanted a fresh install of iDeneb so it would have all of the stock AppleIntel* kexts. I'm surprised it is even working with the kexts deleted. If you do turn up a problem, follow post #84 again and don't delete any kexts, just install the ones supplied. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jnxjn Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 but how do i mount the PEN? the partition type of it its NTFS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rlf Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 1. Is it PEN or IPEN? 2. If it is NTFS, that might explain the mount problem. Can you remove whatever is on it and then format it as FAT16 or FAT32 which OSX can read? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jnxjn Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 but why would i need the AppleIntel* kexts? also should i not use http://phill84.org/download/GMA950.zip and http://phill84.org/download/OpenGL.framework.zip instead? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rlf Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 1. You have an AppleIntel 915 graphics system. True, we don't need ALL of the AppleIntel* kexts, we need all of the AppleIntel GMA 950 kexts. And the kexts provided on http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=141549 are supposed to be a better way to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jnxjn Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 rlf, i already format the IPEN with fat32 but when i type "cd /Volumes/IPEN" i get "cd: /Volumes/IPEN: No such file or directory" what would be the command line to mount the IPEN? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rlf Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 1. If you type the command: diskutil list do you see it listed? 2. If you type the command: mount do you see it listed? 3. When you reformatted it, are you sure it didn't take the name UNTITLED? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jnxjn Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 1. If you type the command: diskutil listdo you see it listed? yes, its listed as IPEN /dev/disk6 2. If you type the command: mountdo you see it listed? no, /dev/disk6 is not listed 3. When you reformatted it, are you sure it didn't take the name UNTITLED? yes, the name is the same its "IPEN" how can i mount the IPEN? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
