netkas Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 geforce8 gl driver ahs only mentions about g92 and g98, nothing about g94. so, it's not going to work with 10.5.2 but smbd may try to get working framebuffer at least, god knows wil it work or not.

Kimari Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 Guessing there's not a lot a huge amount of people who've bough it so far...and much less for OSX considering no one else has.

Lexster05 Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 I have the EVGA 9600 GT and I am in the same boat. I am running Kalyway 10.5.1 with the Kalyway 10.5.2 update. I tried the nvinject with 10.5.2 and nothing changed. If anyone could build a patch, I would be most grateful.

friedymeister89 Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 Arggg... I'm bulding a Hackintosh and waiting for my motherboard to arrive tomorrow. I didn't realize that the 9600gt wasn't compatible. What won't work?

foureight84 Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 from your spec, the 9600gt will be a problem. i just upgraded mine also and i am still waiting for the patch. that gigabyte mobo is awesome. i got the ds4 and it plays nicely with the kalyway release.

friedymeister89 Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 I've been wrestling with Kalway for many hours... Everything is fine (except that it crashes when I shutdown) and when I try to install the nvidinject (or whatever it's called), installing only the 512mb version, I can't boot up (even in safe mode) and I get the screen that says to shutdown the computer. Any ideas? I really don't want to reinstall everything again.

vladthebad Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 go to the darwin bootloader, hit F8 to or return to enter some options. enter -s hit return, that takes you to single user mode then follow the instructions: I believe its: /sbin/mount -uw / then go remove nvinject from command line, and remove your extensions caches. cd /System/Library/Extensions rm -r nvinject.kext rm -r /System/Library/Extensions.* reboot now it'll boot back up in 1024x768 mode.

cpuguy06 Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 I just got a 9600gt in my new Q6600 machine...will have to try the above method. So far my NIC on my ASUS P5K-E works and sound I still have yet to get working, sata works sees my ram, and the EFI bootloader emulation works as well.

cyclonefr Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 can you please try those kexts http://rapidshare.com/files/103256449/9d10.zip.html ? Don't bother with the OpenGL.Framework, it's corrupted but at least if it works you'll have resolution change / framebuffer working for sure. If it works then we'll see for QE/CI. Make sure you added your product id/vendor id in the nvdanv50hal.kext as netkas says in his post.

Make sure you added your product id/vendor id in the nvdanv50hal.kext as netkas says in his post. Hi, I copied all the files in the zip into /System/Library/Extensions (minus OpenGL.Framework items). I used xcode plist editor and added dev id to plist file for nvdanv50hal.kext. (my dev id is 0x0622) The system boots alright. But when I open up the system preferences to change the display resolution, it only has 1024x768 resolution option. When I go to about this mac and click on the Graphic/Display, I get the "Please reset.." screen. I have Vanilla kernel 9.2.2 and EFI v8 btw. I'm not 100% sure if EFI v8 installed properly because I don't know how to check. FYI - I haven't installed the graphic update for leopard 10.5.2. I can provide more details if needed. I can try other things out if you like, with directions. Cheers.

MacSimizeDenver Posted April 1, 2008 Share Posted April 1, 2008 I bought the Sparkle 9600GT yesterday and din't get it working on my Kalyway 10.5.1 w/o Vanilla. So I installed it today again, this time with support for the Nvidia engine from Kalyways installer DVD (for the 5k, 6k and 7k series). But it won't work. Booting up until the process freeze and that't it. So I change back to my x1600 pro everytime I need to use OSX.
