Achilleus Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 I just finished doing the Leopard Graphics Update and all I get now is that ugly blue blank screen when I boot it up. Is this normal? Should I continue to wait? There's no hard drive activity and the fan isn't speeding up, so as far as I know it's doing nothing.

Achilleus Posted February 29, 2008 Author Share Posted February 29, 2008 Unfortunately this does not fix my problem. I can't boot--period. It stays at that blank light blue screen with no activity whatsoever. So, since I can't boot, how would I install the new kernel to fix the problem?

Achilleus Posted March 1, 2008 Author Share Posted March 1, 2008 Nevermind, I ended up just reinstalling it. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/90784-graphics-update/#findComment-649432 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Achilleus Posted March 1, 2008 Author Share Posted March 1, 2008 Alright well after reinstalling Leopard, running the combo update, installing the new vanilla kernel, rebooting and installing the graphics update I am still having the same problem. Blank light blue screen. I repaired permissions along every step of the way so that can't be the problem. It gets past the loading screen just fine every time so verbose mode doesn't do me any good. Any ideas? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/90784-graphics-update/#findComment-650477 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thao Posted March 1, 2008 Share Posted March 1, 2008 You've got the same chipset as me. I've re-installed 4 times using different kernels and everything, the damn thing just won't work at any cost for me. Are you trying to fix graphical tearing? Many legit-mac owners have apparently been experiencing the same issues, so I'm assuming there will be a fix in the near future.

Achilleus Posted March 2, 2008 Author Share Posted March 2, 2008 Yes, I am, I get tearing all the time lol. I use adobe flash a lot and it's so much harder to work in that program when half the time you aren't sure what tool you're set to xD Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/90784-graphics-update/#findComment-650918 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrik Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 Yes, I am, I get tearing all the time lol. I use adobe flash a lot and it's so much harder to work in that program when half the time you aren't sure what tool you're set to xD I think it's the graphical update that does it if you have GMA950 as discussed in this thread. I'm having the same problem, and i didn't back up the AppleIntelIntergratedFramebuffer.kext.
