jchowland Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 Just posting my experience... I followed the guide on macvidia, and replaced the PCI match to 0x32210de (I must have the same card as the dev), and deleted the other records. When I tried to kextload it, it came up with this error: james-howlands-computer:/System/Library/Extensions root# kextload -t NVidia.kext kextload: extension NVidia.kext appears to be valid kextload: notice: extension NVidia.kext has debug properties set 6NVIDIA is not compatible with its superclass, 17IONDRVFramebuffer superclass changed? kextload: a link/load error occured for kernel extension NVidia.kext load failed for extension NVidia.kext (run kextload with -t for diagnostic output) Any ideas?

macgirl Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 You are trying to load a kext from 10.4.1 on 10.4.3, do you? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/5541-nasty-error-with-the-nvidiakext-alpha-2/#findComment-35077 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eidola Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 Darn, you got me all excited there with the "Alpha 2" part... According to the site there is only v0.1a out currently, and only for 10.4.1 I have a fully working OSX, sadly no accelerated video... yet. :/ Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/5541-nasty-error-with-the-nvidiakext-alpha-2/#findComment-35121 Share on other sites More sharing options...

blinksilver Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 yeah im in the same situation alsois there any word from the dev's if alpha 2 will support 10.4.3? from what i understand, 99/100 there is not going to be another release. We are all just hanging around and hoping, man i wish i had a proper knowledge of the microKernel driver api, as well as the nvidia drivers. I would just write it myself. Oh well, I am far to lazy to learn.
