Tricking Aperture to run on GMA 950?

[retroz]

Wondering how to make my machine recoginze Aperture, in addition, will the update to the latest version require 10.4.8?

 

Thanks,

 

Also, if someone has the time and wants to weigh in on the benefits of running 10.8 vs 10.6, please do so.

 

Thanks again!

Well I downloaded a torrent for Aperture that had a "no-hardware" crack in it. It basically just removes the hardware checking script at the begininning of the installer.

 

The upgrade from 10.4.6 to .8 has the various security fixes from apple blah blah blah. You can upgrade to 10.4.8 without having to change the stabilty of your machine (kexts, kernel, etc) you'll just have to look for the JAS combo update torrent. But the reason that I was most excited about the true 10.4.8 update (8.8.1 kernel and up) was the fact that we now have new kernels available from semthex. Now to run these kernels you need to have atleast 10.4.8. The main reason for me to want to move to the new kernel is Titan. With this new kext and kernel, I (along with many other nVidia graphics users) now have CI/QE and full resolution! Woohoo! In my opinion though (due to corrupt iso's, compatibilty issues, etc) if you don't need to, I would not upgrade to the true 10.4.8 JAS reseed DVD. If you have all of your components working just fine, then just download the combo for securities sake. I got greedy and wanted CI/QE and that was the only reason for my move.

 

Good luck.

its also trivial to make aperture run on versions earlier than 10.4.8 (Info.plist edit in the Aperture.app package). however, RAW support is OS version dependant.
