I hope its not because I have DVI to VGA adapter going on.

I'm gonna try to get a DVI Cable from my LCD to GFX so i wont need the DVI>VGA Adapter

 

Yes I have QE/CI as you can see there

Did you try the method in that post? I doubt the dvi->vga connector is causing that. However, I just got a new 7900 and I am using a connector also because my dvi cable won't work for some odd reason and mine says "generic" too. I'll give my DVI cable one more shot when I get off of work -- if that doesn't work I'm going for the solution in the link posted above.

I have the same card. I have natit installed and when i do a -v at boot it shows natit.kext loaded. and i have resolution changing. but i do not have CI / QE support :-\. and when i have geforce.kext in the extensions folder i get a kernel panic. but i can boot w/o it. i really want CI / QE any ideas? i'm going to try titan later today.

RobNyc: you haven't said what driver you have installed, if its Natit you can try and add your devID to the naming keys.

 

Put the following code after "<string>IOPCIDevice</string>" in info.plist in natit.kext

<key>Vendors</key>
		<dict>
			<key>0x10de</key>
			<dict>
				<key>Devices</key>
				<dict>

					<key>0x0295</key>
					<dict>
						<key>name</key>
						<string>NVIDIA GeForce 7950 GT</string>
					</dict>
				</dict>
				<key>name</key>
				<string>nVidia</string>
			</dict>
		</dict>

 

if there are entries like this already, then just modify one of them to add your cards DevID.

 

This might work (or crash), so keep a backup of your Natit.kext.

These entries are in some versions of Natit.

I am using JaS 10.4.8 and the natit_edited kexts from the osx86 wiki, search for natit.

The only thing I edited in Natit.kext, GeForce.kext, NVDAResman.kext, and NVDANV40Hal.kext is my devID.

<string>0x029510de</string>

then mv exited kexts to the correct folder

change permissions and owner

repair disk permissions

reboot

 

so maybe try the edited natit kext instead of the installer, or its just an issue of you having .10 and me on .8

I've tried the Natit installer in .8, .9, and haven't tried in .10 because I've gotten no luck in the other versions

So the Myzar/TubGirl AMD DVD has Titan and not Natit..

So my Nvidia is shown as Generic because Titan is installed and if anyone can help me getting titan removed and installing Natit would be great
