You have the m1330 mine is only for the m1530, you could try the one I made for wingrunr it is for m1330 he said his usb ports stopped working but I am gonna look at it again in a few and try to fix it. But mirror display will work with it.

 

[edit]

 

here is that DSDT for the m1330 tried a little something to help out usb, hope it works, and change AZAL to HDEF so you shouldn't need HDAEnabler any more, still need legacy kexts though. Someone please let me know if it works, wingrunr, or danik_iceman.

 

You got it! USB ports are working after applying your DSDT, so is the video. Unfortunately, after removing HDAEnabler.kext and using your DSDT audio stopped working. There is no input/output device listed in audio settings.

 

EDIT: Just tested with an external monitor for mirror displays. Didn't work for me with the new DSDT, but probably my monitor is the case or something else, since everyone else is reporting it as working.

 

EDIT2: Somebody else has to test if sleep is working, I can't test it since I am running Mac OS from external USB hard drive.

That won't work, you need to have "@1,display-cfg" for mirror support, disassemble the one I modified to see.

LOL..I am new to this, and don't what you are talking about here :(

 

@itdoesntwork - Did you do that to make mirror display working? Or is it just working by default for you?

In Windows if you tap the touchpad it works as a mouseclick. Does this work in OS X as well for you guys?

 

(Assuming you have installed VoodooPS2Controller with Trackpad option)

 

Go to System Preferences > Trackpad

 

Under Trackpad Gestures enable Clicking and Dragging.

 

If you didn't install Trackpad option, it might be under Keyboard & Mouse, but it's better to just reinstall VoodooPS2, the click Customize and select Trackpad.

Wingrunr21, I've just gone through another sets of clean installs until finally got it all working. What I found out is that if you are using OSx86 Tools, then you have to one kext at a time, and repair permissions after each kext is installed. That's the only way I could get all the kext install successfully. I think you should add that to the second post(General Kext Installation) to say explicitly to install one kext at a time.

Yes, it works OOTB.

 

Concerning HD Playback: I got it working now by installing Perian. However, in most H.264 Videos the colors are quite strange. When there is a dark scene, it looks like a LQ video from youtube. That doesn't occur with all formats, though.

Hi,

 

I'm just changed my notebook to a dell xps m1330. My previous one runs well under seven/osx/linux. so i'm starting to apply the same OS configuration.

 

problem: each time i boot under OSX (iPC 10.5.6 ou Ideneb 10.5.5), the kernel hangs after acpi initialalization ?!?

Somebody else met the problem ?

 

my bios is last A15. I tried with or without ahci activated.

 

Thanks for help.

I think I won't add that to the second post because that isn't the case. There are many times I've installed multiple kexts at the same time with OSx86 tools and not had a problem. When installing kexts via OSx86 Tools the program will automatically place the correct kexts. You are the first one I've heard about that's had that problem. Kext Helper (also linked in the second post) may work better for you.

 

Chrysaor,

 

I've fiddled with "@1,display-cfg" some for NVinject but so far have been unable to get the data field right. Did you just tweak values until it worked?

For some reason, after I installed Chameleon this time(I chose Forceware=y in the options), at the boot time the most right partition is selected as a default one, so I have to go all they to the left and choose my Mac Os partition. Is there a file in Mac that is equivalent to boot.ini file ini win xp?

I want to change the default OS selected, timeout for default OS to be selected.

I was able to get by with -x option at the boot.

I got myself a 23 inch Full HD display today and it works grat with OSX. Only thing I am missing is sound via HDMI. Can I get it to work by any chance?

Thanks

 

This would be awesome to get working. I hook my laptop up to my 46" plasma via HDMI and also get no sound, I have to use a regular headphone jack going to the TV. I don't know if it's possible to do sound because the way macs are. Anyone else have any info on this?

Just wanted to say thank you to Wingrunr21, Talisman, Brandon, and everyone else for making this happen! I now have a perfectly running Mac OS X on my machine dual booting with Windows 7.

Will be waiting for the common minor issues to be solved.

I installed OSX on my m1530 (iAtkos 5i on MBR partition) and everything works except trackpad.

 

I installed VoodooPS2Controller and i can scroll (no two-finger scroll, but like in windows using scroll-side on right of trackpad).

The trackpad itself however is very buggy. Sometimes the pointer just jumps to another location.

 

Has anybody encountered this problem? or what could i do to fix this?

 

Thx

Has anyone tried to use FireWire port on M1330??

 

I have FireWire in System Profiler, so the chip is installed and it should work! But nothing comes up in System Profiler (neither in iMovie or Finder) when I plug a DV camcorder or Hard Drive!!

 

Any Idea?? :D
