sirocyl Posted January 11, 2006 Author Share Posted January 11, 2006 What do you mean by "edit" those lines? I'm in front of the nano editor, at the lines you told me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirocyl Posted January 12, 2006 Author Share Posted January 12, 2006 Also, why would I need to edit those extensions, if I would end up deleting them later? Either it is just an extra step, or Macintosh is one of the weirdest OS's I have ever seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tagmaster Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 I mean by changing the number that is displayed the line after IOPCI match. and i fotgor after u end that process do this Open terminal sudo kextload -w /System/Library/Extensions/AppleIntel830.kext sudo kextload -w /System/Library/Extensions/AppleIntel915.kext sudo kextload -w /System/Library/Extensions/AppleIntelIntegratedGraphics.kext And i mean by erase that u erase all the AppleIntel----.kexts except the three that u edited and load with the above step Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
