metalchaos Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 I have a FSC notebook core duo with GMA950. After 10.5.2 and graphics update + Natit.kext everything is working fine, full acceleration, no firefox glitches. But the external connector is not working, no display is detected. I have a DVI connector instead of the usual VGA. If I connect a DVI-VGA adaptor and a VGA display it's working sort of (I don't have 1650x1050, only 1600x1200 max and it works if I startup with the monitor pluged-in, if I plug it afterwards I get a kernel panic). Could this be because of the Natit.kext? I put it because after graphics update desktop it's not loading (yes I get the bluescreen but I don't have mouse cursor and it doesn't work even if I startup with display connected so the 1-2wire trick won't work) Please help if I make this work I will have a 100% Mac.

Gujal Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 I had a similar problem and it got solved by replacing 10.5.2 AppleIntelIntegratedFramebuffer.kext with the one from brazilmac patch. Give it a try Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/90055-i-dont-have-external-monitor/#findComment-645047 Share on other sites More sharing options...
metalchaos Posted February 29, 2008 Author Share Posted February 29, 2008 It worked thank you!! Still the bare DVI is not working but I if I use a DVI to VGA adapter and a VGA monitor it works... but I have all resolutions except widescreen ones... all are 4:3... can I make a custom resolution for an external widescreen monitor?

metalchaos Posted March 4, 2008 Author Share Posted March 4, 2008 It's also working with the latest 10.5.2 AppleIntelIntegratedFramebuffer.kext if I use the EFI string for my card, but still the external monitor is limited to 4:3 resolutions only. Is there a workaround for this? Can I force 1680x1050 for example?
