intel GMA950 + 10.4.10 anyone done it?

[mega]

I've tried a couple distro's, so far no luck

 

has anyone with an intel GMA950 been able to upgrade from 10.4.9 to 10.4.10?

 

If so what steps did you use?

 

I've got uphuck 1.3 universal working great, but the 10.4.10 upgrade so my iphone works has not gone so well, I've reloaded the laptop 5 times so far, each one will boot up, showing a grey screen with apple logo, and then flash blue and crash

 

 

pretty sure at this point it's a driver issue with the gma950

I have managed to upgrade to koolkal 10.4.10 via Jas 10.4.8 gma 950 CI & QE supported.

Still haven't managed to get CI & QE support using the new Kalyway 10.4.10

[~pcwiz]

There is an Intel GMA950 driver option in the Kalyway 10.4.10 installer. But like antic says, its probably not going to support CI and QE.

[mega]

I used the gma950 driver in the kalyway install, but it does not work at all for me

If you have a copy of Jas 10.4.8 lying around try the gma950.pkg instal. I have heard it might work.

Mobo Intel D945GNTLKR + D945

(3536 MHz, 4 giga / 3.3 giga memory works, boots direct from 1. sata(0)

which has OsX. I have no windows anymore. Choise is not ideological...

I only do not need it.)

 

Start: Upchuck_10.4.9_v1.4i.iso. = First 1.4 version with rosetta.

Update: MacOSXUpd10.4.10Intel.mpkg from PascalW

 

= 8.10.1 " Sochi2014:Vote for us " kernel. (I hate that kind like kernel info!)

 

iLife 08 & iWork 08 works excellent. - And all other programs too.

Only one bug... wake from sleep not works. I wait, that PascalW

or Koolcal will make easy 8.10.3 kernel update.

 

Ok. Then: This is what You ask:

Fix: gma950.pgk (1.0) date 24.05.2007 by upchuck - some early distro. - 1.3 ?

Fix: Finnish.pkg 10.4.7 distro. - Everyone understand that from my english? :-)

Fix: ich7r.pkg (1.0) My Great Company

Fix: azalia.audio.pkg (1.0) My Great Company

 

I have all early distros, can not say where all .pkg are exactly from.

I have made system building folder with necessary update like:

AudioUpdate2007-001.pkg

QuickTime720.pkg

iTunes7.4.1

JavaForMacOSX10.4Release4

JavaForMacOSX10.4Release5

quicktime.codecs.pkg (uphuck)

Perian_1.0.dmg

Flip4Mac WMV.mpkg

AvidCodecsPE.pkg

rr231x_0x-Mac-v21-042507(2).dmg for HighPoint RocketRaid 2300

pci-e sata-II card. (flash bios unbootable, and it works well after that.

It is almost equal fast than motherboard sata, about 90%. Card is 1x version

of pci-e, because motherboar has only 1x place. Driver is from 4x version

card)

 

Gma950.pkg 1.0 upchuck has all different res and refresh choises.

This time I am not sure from azalia... I use C-media's Usb Sound... ehh...

"card"? stick? box? ...what ever. Cheap & works well. It has microphone in.

= Skype.

 

Hmm... what else... OsX likes memory. It is cheap now. I recommended it.

And because You ask gma950... look at that:

 

http://www.wintecind.com/mfg/products/add2/index.htm

 

I allready have that dual dvi model card (actually two) , but i am not tested them yet.

I am buying two lcd to myself and two to my wife. - Extremely Difficult Things to choise.

Yeah... I know, sips and pva and tn ... four equal or 2 pivot + 2 normal, Or big 26"

full hd and smaller side monitor (pivot?)... well...

 

If I understand right, gma950 with driver shows every mode, what monitor can presents,

WHEN monitor is connected. That is the reason, why pivot mode is not showing by driver

now.

 

Hope this help. And after fixing use Yasu to clean Your system.

I managed to get it work on my dell inspiron 6400.

Here's what i did: first,do clean install using Kalyway 10.4.10 installer DVD ( of cuz it wont boot w/o patching)

second, use Jas 10.4.8 installer DVD to restore IntelGMA950 kexts and reboot

Now u should have managed to boot into GUI instead of hanging at the blue screen

hopefully it helps those with GMA950.

I have it working fine with CI&QE. Installed JaS 10.4.8 then installed PascalW's 10.4.10 update, skipping the video drivers. For some reason, it seems that it still tries to modify the video drivers, giving the solid blue screen anyway. Reboot into single user mode and delete the AppleIntelGMA950* kexts and AppleIntelIntegratedFramebuffer kext. When you reboot, you will make it to the desktop, but the video will be stuck in 1024x768 without CI&QE. Then reinstall the GMA950 package from the JaS 10.4.8 DVD, reboot, and you will be working fine.

[tobi148]

This worked also for me,

After updating to 10.4.10 with Patch you have to go to singleusermode, delete AppleIntelIntegratedFramebuffer.kext and AppleIntelGMA950.kext

Then u have to reboot in OS X with resolution 1024x768

Now u have to install the GMA950.pkg

For the ones who search it and dont find the right one, i have attached the file.

 

 

ILife and IWorks 08 are fully supported.

QE/CI is also supported.

 

Have Fun

if using the kalyway 10.4.10 use the gma900 driver option instead 950 for the gma950. sounds confusing but worked for me without any problems, full qe support and then easly updated to 4.11 with software update
