hemzet Posted January 21, 2007 Share Posted January 21, 2007 (edited) Hi Guys, After spending several days and nights with installing the MacOS on the notebook, I think it's time to write all the experiences down. The system is stable but I haven't all drivers properly installed yet. Hope this will be done soon... 10.4.8 System The only DVD that worked for me was JaS 10.4.8 AMD Intel SSE2 SSE3. In customized installation procedure the following options have to be chosen: - Printer Drivers (if you need some of them) - Addional Fonts (if you like) - X11 (if you like) - JaS Intel 10.4.8 ATA kext No other options are required. Video At the moment all tries to get the video card running properly with OpenGL failed. The system has an ATI Mobility FireGL 5250 with 256MB of RAM built in (Manufacturer ID: 1002, Model-Id: 0x71d4). At the kernel boot prompt only 16MB will be shown, but the Mac Infobox shows the correct value. So the actual Natit.ktext and ATINDrv.ktext with all tried patches unfortunately don't work. See other topics for more help: Thread 1 Thread 2 Thread 3 Thread 4 Thread 5 But the display size can be corrected by patching the /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.Boot.plist Just insert the following code after all entries (but before closing the XML statement): <key>Graphics Mode</key> <string>1400x1050x32</string> Audio To get the built in Intel High Definition Audio card to work, just run the attached installer (Conexant High Definition Audio) and reboot. LAN The Intel Pro 1000 LAN card will work without problems without the need of an additional driver. WLAN At the moment there is no possibility to get the built in Intel 3945abg working. There are several threads in the forum and I hope news are coming soon See other topics for more help: Thread 1 Bluetooth Still in development Infrared Still in development PowerManagement Still in development Hope more information are coming soon...

Focher Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 The problem with writing a T60p guide is that there are many different T60p configurations - most with nothing in common. It would be helpful if you specific your exact model number. I am using a 2008-66M (the last character is only the keyboard layout identified and M is the global /English layout). Version - Jas 10.4.8 with Jas Combo Update and the Login Window update. Nothing else. Audio - working with instructions found in the forums Video (ATI x1400)- working at 1400x1050 on the LCD and also outputs to external monitor. Haven't tried dual display. I think I used the 10.4.5 ATI drivers and modified the PCI HW ID. Power Management - working battery status LAN - worked out of the box Bluetooth - not working Wireless (Intel 3945abg) - not working but iwi2200 driver is being developed Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/39410-installation-guide-thinkpad-t60p-2007-xxx-model/#findComment-288899 Share on other sites More sharing options...
carl Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 Hello, The Bluetooth work perfectly on my t60p model 2007-xxx. You must just activate it with the keys : FN + F5 (Wifi) and mac os recognise it.

mi2ke Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 Hello hemzet, Did you find a solution for the fireGL5250 on the T60p to activate QE?

DaMoGan Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 Lenovo Thinkpad T60p 2007-CTO Hi All, Thought I'd update this since I have very similar hardware to that of hemzet (and thanks for providing the information you did!) I'm adding this because I just wanted to say that using mac.nub's 10.4.10 (v1r5) release, I was able to get "most" things working pretty much out of the box. Before anyone gets too excited, I don't have a QE/CI-enabled graphics solution. Sorry! Here is my hardware in some detail: - Intel Core2 Duo T5600 - 1GB/100GB RAM/Disk - 14.1" display (1400x1050 max resolution I think) - Atheros AR5212/Intel Mini PCI-E wireless - Yadda, yadda yadda. I installed to an external USB disk, just because I wanted to keep Linux on the internal drive (at least for now!) I do believe the internal SATA drive is supported. For the install, I selected (in addition to what was already selected) Video->ATI->ATI Mobility (graphics came up in 1024x768) hemzet's fix in first post of this thread got me the higher resolution. Audio->Azalia audio option Network->10.4.5 IO80211Family (for wireless. Wired networking worked for me out of the box.) I also added the optional 'Insomnia' PowerManagement and ... (ATI Tool? At any rate, it's the only other option). I hope this info helps someone else out! If anyone does ever find a way to get QE/CI working for this card, kindly add a post here. Thanks!
