GMA X4500

[mnelson]

Well, installing apple's ps2 driver from iatkos v7 dvd didn't change anything, even though i can't find voodoo ps/2 kext in the extensions folder anymore, still, after using the script, the result is the same, native resolution working, but no pointer. I just heard about osx86tools for the first time, so i'm gonna play with it a little.

 

When you install iAtkos v7 READ the manual. You will see it during the installation prosess. There is an information regarding PS/2 mouse problems and some advises regarding this issue. When I installed v7 for the first time my keyboard and mouse were not recognized. But than I chose Voodoo PS/2 (if I remember correct) kext and keyboard and mouse are ok now.

 

@ GMX 4500MHD driver developers

I have HP dv4t laptop. Here is my hardware info from lspci if it would help to diagnose and fix the 4500MHD driver problem. Everything works fine (out of the box -- wireless, sound, usb) except graphic card.

Still, Black screen

 

I'm on 10.5.7(updated from iPC 10.5.6),

 

with 2a428086(comfirmed from lspci output),

 

and use the original kexts extracted from official MacOSXUpd10.5.7.dmg.

 

Waiting for someone with t400 to confirm the result.

 

Anyway, thanks for all your help.

[coldequation]

Download the latest from the voodoolabs forum. The preferences panel is in the download.

 

Wow, i didn't know that there should be one in the system preferences. I installed it from the iatkos v7 dvd, and there isn't such a panel. Any idea how make it appear?

I cant find anything about leopard thinking about a second monitor in the displays panel in syspref.

 

I ran the bash with -vr and it worked, but after reboot, no pointer.

 

Can you tell me how to undo it? I thought -r will remove it, then i deleted the kext. This is what is should do?

 

-r only deletes the newly created 24A2AppleIntelGMAX3100.kext. If you want to go back to what you had before running patch4500, then you need only delete the 24A2AppleIntelGMAX3100FB.kext.

 

I will consider adding an -u undo option at some point.

 

@mnelson - you need to run lscpci -nn to see the device id. Your output doesn't include it.

Thank you, i've found it in the meantime, but there are nothing in the preferences panel about hardware mouse, or anything related.

Hey guys,

 

Let be clear "blue screen for a few seconds, black screen for one second, then blue screen again, and finally login window.." means the framebuffer runs fine, and the resolution as been changed from VESA boot one to the NATIVE os x desktop one. Tienneke and I even been able to recover the screen EDID through IOReg while the framebuffer was running. We can easily re inject that at the right place, i've done some tests one my GMA 950 and it don't hurt.

 

I've noticed that revision ID of the X3100 is "03000000" when the X4500 one is "07000000", we may need to patch that in the drivers and Natit too.

 

I've also read many time that AppleIntegratedFrameBuffer.kext may interfere with X3100 kexts when using Natit.... Since we don't need it, let's delete All GMA 950 related kext and see is this help. Or lets have a look at your system profiler to see if some GMA 950 kext are loaded. ( i've already seen X3100 kext loaded along side of my GMA 950 graphics drivers).

 

Another idea i had, maybe a wrong one But who knows.... Why not try to patch Intel GMA 950 kext to see what's happen ?

 

Cya.

 

Hi, I`ve looked at my system profiler and no GMA950 kext are loaded. But as you can see in the attachement, there are the two x3100 kets loaded, besides of the 2A42AppleIntelGMA3100FB kext

 

You guys are "masters of OSX86" ! I really thank you very much, it`s first time I´ve got a 1380x800 resolution!!!!

 

Muchachos son muuuyyy capos!!! Felicitaciones por todo el esfuerzo y la dedicación que ponen para desarrollar este driver

 

Thank you, i've found it in the meantime, but there are nothing in the preferences panel about hardware mouse, or anything related.

 

 

Varadi, try the one i`ve attached. It`s important that you delete the Appleps2controller and the AppleACPIps2Nub kexts from the extension folder before you install it.

BTW, you`ll find appleACPIps2Nub in /S/L/E/AppleACPIplatform.ket/contents/plugins

 

good luck

Need detailed lspci output.

 

Hi,

 

I need to see the output of lspci from three different setups:

 

1. Hackintosh using an X3100 card with QE/CI.

2. MacBook using X3100 card

3. Hack using 4500MHD card

 

The command to run is:

 

lspci -vvxxx >lspci-out.txt

 

Thanks.

[Monkey D. Luffy]

I tried the lspci

 

bash-3.2# lspci -vvxxx >lspci-out.txt

lspci: Cannot find any working access method.

 

I have the X3100 Sony Hack - working QI/CE

 

Did I do something wrong?

Thank you for the idea, but neither of these files exist, i guess because i've already installed the package you attached (it's the same version, but if yours is modified somehow, i'll give it a try). I did not remove the two files you mentioned, so probably the installer removed them (i'm sure the first one was in the extension folder, i saw it), the second one(with the complicated path) i wasn't looking for, but they both don't exist now for sure. These three files are in the plugins folder where appleACPIps2Nub should be:AppleACPIButtons.kext, AppleACPIIEC.kext, and AppleACPIPCI.kext.

 

So i don't have the appleps2controller.kext in the extensions folder, but (since i installed the voodoo package), there is a VoodooPS2controller.kext. The syspref panel works fine, but at launch it misses ApplePS2SynapticsTouchpad, then loads perfectly. I can modifiy a lot of things, but there are no references to hardware mouse. Even with this ps2 driver, the mouse disappeares after using the script and rebooting with native resolution, therefore i'm beginning to think it doesn't matter which ps2 driver i use, it could be more of a hardware mouse rendering issue with the x3100 driver, still, it's strange noone ever had this kind of problem before with that driver...

Thanks for the various lspci outputs. Now I have to study them.

 

Hoping to find a way to patch in the different addresses, size etc. Might need another kext like the one Slice did for ATI...

 

Later,

Hello there,

 

I've been really watching this thread since last two weeks or so and running almost all the tests which others have. But I'm get frustrated now, I've tested the patch by coldequation as well and it did patch the kexts actually but I could not get the native resolution at all, in-fact I got the blue and then black screen after the restart then at the end I had to delete the 2a42AppleIntelGMAX3100FB.kext to get back into my OSX installation.

 

I am running it on a dell laptop E6400 please see my lspci file and my system logs as well. I really appreciate the help of you guys doing to us. I just need this display to be giving me at least native resolution and as all are greedy QE/CI will be perfect .

system.log.zip

[coldequation]

2a40 is a bridge memory controller. 2a42 is your GMA 4500MHD graphics core. 2a43 should be the chipset (probably GM45)

 

You need to rerun your lspci and post it. It doesn't have all the info. Run it with the following:

 

lspci -vvxxx >lspci.txt

 

Thanks.

Some questions:

have you tried after you`ve got the black screen rebooting with the -x and deleting the 2a42AppleIntelGMAX3100.kext? (I mean not the one ending with FB)

It happened the same to me but deleting the 2a42AppleIntelGMAX3100.kext i got my native resolution.

BTW, what distro are you running? I believe that it should be one of the 10.5.7...

In-fact I've run your script and as far as I know your script does this job to remove the 2a42AppleIntelGMAX3100.kext. The last method of testing was iAtkos5i and updated to 10.5.7 and ran your script after i ran the script booted into the OS and got the blue and then black screen. Rebooted again with -s and had to delete the 2a42AppleIntelGMAX3100FB.kext and then rebooted again and got the display back but with out any native resolution.

 

I hope this helps you to better understand my problem.

 

With very best regards,

I've had a talk with iPoco on IRC, he's got the same laptop as you have. Apparently you have 2 graphics cards, integrated and dedicated. I think this might be a problem at the moment.

 

Could you post an ioreg dump and your /var/system.log file?

 

iPoco will also post his ioreg, so I can see what's happening.

I'm quite busy with work stuff atm, but can somebody google about that laptop and linux support? Maybe they had the same problem, and it can be interesting to see how they fixed it..

What laptop do you have, do you have several graphics cards (dedicated&integrated)? can you post an ioreg dump?

(in terminal execute this command: ioreg -l -s -w 0 > ioregoutput.txt and upload the ioregoutput.txt (it'll be in your home folder)

 

I'll be looking at the reasons of the why of this problem tomorow, depending on how much work I have
