jlvaio Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 please people read my posts in recent i give vista info: SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E96E-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318} i type 4D36E96E-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318} to google:it give things related to monitor: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/293335/fr http://www.osronline.com/ddkx/install/setup-cls_2i1z.htm Display Adapters Class = Display ClassGuid = {4d36e968-e325-11ce-bfc1-08002be10318} This class includes video adapters. Drivers for this class include display drivers and video miniport drivers. ystem-Supplied Device Setup Classes: Monitor: Class = Monitor ClassGuid = {4d36e96e-e325-11ce-bfc1-08002be10318} This class includes display monitors. An INF for a device of this class installs no device driver(s), but rather specifies the features of a particular monitor to be stored in the registry for use by drivers of video adapters. (Monitors are enumerated as the child devices of display adapters.) what we know? internal screen is load without qe/ci in vesa when nvinject efi stringgraphic enabler load black screen comes not for external (hdmi vga) why ? because external device couldn t be by default sony products so we know internal screen and nvidia graphics are assembled by sony retail we know for vista that sony provides a special driver for nvidia cards onboard + a special drivers that enable sony feathures what we learn from the ps3"& recent hack mentioned in older post that the vendor use signature of vendor product to enable feathure what we learn upside: " This class includes display monitors. An INF for a device of this class installs no device driver(s), but rather specifies the features of a particular monitor to be stored in the registry for use by drivers of video adapters. (Monitors are enumerated as the child devices of display adapters.)" so we can think that vendor gives is own driver for the nvdiaaa card and no linux driver to keep the secret of the signature so what we have to investigate? the method to determine wich vista driver provided by vendor give the signature sny5001" ornvidia driver try to add the soignature of vendor provided by the haker (chance?) port signature or something to osx in performing search with the mentioned string i found a forum where someone related a ghost display and finish with a trick to have vendor hardwatre id don t remember if he use devcon or something similar the post must be from 2006 on xp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Navid N Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 so as i understood we should make a costume driver for NVidia Card which have the Display driver attached!!! i don't know if it is supported in mac os x or not! we may have to take a look at nvidia drivers and see what is going on in them! as i told before the DSDT method is not going to work and the EDID method didn't work either so the only think which remains (for me) is to take a detailed look into nvidia driver and its interaction with mac os x. does any body knows any way to see resources in NVidia drivers in retail or tony release!!?? retail release: http://www.kexts.com/view/762-nvidia_retai...st_version.html Tonyx86 release: http://www.kexts.com/view/638-nividia_driv...ed_by_tony.html there is a question here i hope someone can answer: can LCD INVENTER cuase the problem?

First Last Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 @jlvaio: i think the signature problem is something windows specific and not reasonable for other OS anyway, with a modded inf file you can also run the default nvidia driver (only brightness control doesn't work). There are no detection problems with this driver. and within linux theres only the default nvidia driver which works with some workaround. i think the sony-driver itself is not that specific, only the brightness feature is added. so the problem could be related to addressing the monitor in the false way. so injecting the right device and vendor id could help?

Navid N Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 let's see what did i found!!!! it seems we are getting somewhere!!! Guys in here had a monitor replacement and their monitor had our problems!!! there was too manu solutions as you would see but none of them worked for this user so he tried his own method!! i don't know if it could do anythink but i'll give it a chance now! if it did not do anythink there might be a problem with the Bootloader (chameleon RC5) which is the last option avilable. http://forums.macrumors.com/showpost.php?p...p;postcount=958 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First Last Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 hm i havent heard about this but you could check the log files manually, just because it's unix-like. Otherwise use the system profiler, it displays the logs in a good way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Navid N Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 DID Any body knew that with -x -v GraphicsEnabler=Yes you could get the currect amount of video RAM and ROM version!!!!!!!! internal display also works in 1280*800 res!!!!!!!!!! YES IT WORKS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom Thief Dark Mousy Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Navid: Yes, that's b/c you are booting into safe mode where half the drivers aren't loaded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OoTLink Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 You can always set whatever resolution you want with GraphicsEnabler=Yes and "Graphics Mode"="1280x800" (for example). If you go above a certain number of pixels, it'll default to 1024x768 or maybe 1280x1024. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Navid N Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 we should make our drivers for our selfs!! i got my Graphic working WITH internal LCD without any driver after a fresh install with chameleon 2 RC5 r700!! every detail of the Graphic is identified!!!! but no QE/CI becuase of no graphics driver!!

OoTLink Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 So... you do mean at 1024x768 or some really low res right? Or do you actually mean 1920x1080. .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexei Leonov Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 Hello! Has anyone tried the specific driver for NVIDIA Quadro available at NVIDIA's site? http://www.nvidia.co.uk/object/quadro-maco...-driver-uk.html It says that GeForce 330M is supported. Maybe someone will have more luck hacking this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
