Diegus83 Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 Installed KalyWay 10.5.2 in an Intel mobo DG31PR with GMA3100 graphics, the 3100 packaga in the instaler was selected. Still not working. Gonna try adding the device ID of the 3100 in the 950 kext if that's possible to see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bazz38 Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 I recently bought a Shuttle SG31G2, with GMA3100 integrated video.. Leopard (kaly 10.5.1) installed fine, but as mentioned above, I was stuck to the 1024x786 res. Tried every driver available, but couldn't get the proper resolution. There's one little thing that's worth mentioning; I did have QE enabled, without any custom drivers installed. Things like coverflow in iTunes worked, not so good, but it worked. Using a 8400GS now, much better performance & compatibilty... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fred9113 Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 I use a Dell Vostro200,which got a G33 with GMA3100 video card and Intel82562v-2 Nic ,I can't get them work at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diegus83 Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 It's a no no. Even if you edit the GMA950 kext with the 3100 Device ID, etc it still says NO KEXT LOADED. CoverFlow, QuickLook, etc works fine but the CPU usage goes up even when you use Exposé. Toast 9 an VMWare refuses to run and my educated guess is that it has something to do with the absence of accelerated graphics. Gonna check what drivers are they using in Ubuntu/Debian for this onboard video, maybe there are some source codes availables, but I don't think they will be usefull in OS X. Also I've got to check what happens if I set the video mode in the startup options to 1280x1024, at least thing won't look so ugly on my 17" Sony. EDIT "Graphics Mode"="1280x1024x32" in boot option will give you that resolution but screen efects shows some artifacts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I even bought a geforce 7300le but my power supply isnt good enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe 90 Posted September 29, 2008 Share Posted September 29, 2008 The G33 onboard graphics works at 1600x1200x32. Kalyway 10.5.2, and the Apple Graphics Update package are minimum pre-requisites. No hardware QE/CI yet. It still works after upgrade to 10.5.5. You need to specify the resolution you want to the Darwin bootloader. Type "?" to the bootloader, and have a look at the help options. It should also list the options it thinks the driver can support, (yes it appears it goes higher, but at 16 bit colour depth). Or add it to com.apple.Boot.plist as instructed in earlier posts: <key>Kernel Flags</key> <string>"Graphics Mode"="1600x1200x32"</string> Your file should include something like the above in it after the edit. The text to be added should sit between <string> and </string>. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
