I've been trying for ages to get my laptop (Toshiba A30-514) to work correctly with Tiger.

 

I've got the sound working thanks to this forum, but getting the GFX working with CL seems impossible.

 

I've placed the 915 and 830 files in /System/Library/Extensions as suggested by so many guides, as well as editing the IO match bit from 2852 to 3852 (fwiw mines a Rev 0x0002).

 

What i see on bootup is

 

GFX0: family specific matching fails
display: family specific matching fails
Matching service count = 2
Matching service count = 4
Matching service count = 4
Matching service count = 4
Matching service count = 4
GFX0: family specific matching fails
display: family specific matching fails
RTC: invalid device register map
GFX0: family specific matching fails
display: family specific matching fails
GFX0: family specific matching fails
display: family specific matching fails

 

I've even gone as far as moving the 830 files out from the Extensions folder (causes dreaded blue screen) and moving out the 915 files (doesnt help or do anything).

 

does anyone have any ideas?. Permissions seem correct (751 on folders).

What darwin says when it's booting ?

 

Vesa 2.0 or 3.0, how much video ram it detects?

 

Darwin/x86 boot v5.0.128
734MB memory
VESA v3.0 31MB (Intel(r)852MG/852MGE/855MG/855MGE Graphics Chip Accelerated VGA BIOS)

 

I think thats about the right amount of ram. Laptop has 1X512MB and 1X256 and uses unified memory architecure so 768-32megs ram=736 (close enough).

OK, your video memory amount is enough for QE.

 

You should try to remove the 915 kext files.

 

Just leave the modified 830 kext files.

 

If you get a blue screen, try to restart on OS X from Windows (without turning the computer off).

 

Check in your Bios if it has an option to extend the display. (e.g 640x480 resolution will be displayed in full screen.)

Cool.

Tried this, no effect, before the X server boots, I still see those error messages GFX0: family specific matching fails

 

Just leave the modified 830 kext files.

 

Yep no change.

 

If you get a blue screen, try to restart on OS X from Windows (without turning the computer off).

 

dont have windows installed anymore: :-(

 

I could try and restore it I guess.

 

Check in your Bios if it has an option to extend the display. (e.g 640x480 resolution will be displayed in full screen.)

 

There is a "stretch" window option, the only thing that does its stretch the text based BIOS bootup screen, X always looks the right resolution (just no CL enabled) :-(

This Stretch option is important.

 

If it is not activated, QE won't be available.

 

Can you copy/paste the content of your plist files in the Appleintegrated and Intel830 kext files ?

 

I will confirm you that your settings are good or not.

I think this sequence is not correct.

 

Try to get the original file from the darwin CD.

 

I can't give you mine now, because i don't have the Vaio with me.

 

Can someone compare with his own file ?
