Prasys Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 Hey guys, I've just created a simple Installer for nVidia GeForce FX 5200 Users and FX 5500 Users that allows users to just download the installer and run it. Its like Install and forget. What it does is pretty much saves your time to download the 250MB combo updater patch + editing plist + installing titan <-- a lot of hassle . Bah , this is the answer then , you just run the installer and voila you have QE/CI working* [and as well as Hardware OpenGL Acceleration]. No tearing or what-so-ever. Here is the how to 1. Download the FX 5200 Installer or FX 5500 Installer 2. Run the installer , it would install everything for you. Just go with Easy Install [you dont have to customize anything unless you're debugging something or you have been told to do so] 3. Once its done , run Disk Utility to repair permissions 4. Reboot and pray 5. You should have your card kickin' Oh here you go guys the URL :- http://www.rakis.net/~prasys/gf5200.zip <-- for GeForce FX 5200 Series For FX5500 Series , I will be uploading an installer once i receive feedback on this I would like to thank dorin for this , for providing me the kexts , editing everything.

bgrau Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 Hi Prasys I have a Geforce FX5600 AGP 256MB lying around, I am interested to try your installer just for the heck of it. Let me know what to modify... (maybe just Dev ID/Vend ID) Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prasys Posted December 22, 2006 Author Share Posted December 22, 2006 Yep just modify the devID/Ven ID..I am making an installer that just does that for all FX5xxx series [since its quite popular] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bristol Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 Good Job Prasys! Looking for driver for NVidia GeForce FX 5500 (vend id: 10de, device id: 0326). Now using Thico Alves driver, i can switch between resolution and refresh rate, but seems that card dont have acceleration or OpenGL (dont know what exactly not working, because im a bit end-user) - but i noticed that, because there is no water drop effect when adding new widget on desktop. So hope, that Your upcoming drivers for 5500 will fix this. (Maybe on 5200 drivers that effect is working). I could try to rename number 5200 to 5500 in all package contents and rename vendor and device id, but does it will work? Or there must be written another things, for proper driver working for 5500?
