sandmanfvrga Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 Sorry didn't read whole thread. My wife has a dv6000 but I didn't get the EXACT model number, can get that tonight. It is an amd. Has others gotten the amd dv6000's working? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandmanfvrga Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 I shouldn't double post, but since this thread isn't going anywhere right now.... I am on the laptop, it is specifically a: HP dv6409wm. It is a AMD tuion 64 x2, 1 gig ram, 100 gig hard drive, nvidia graphics, Conexant HD audio, dvd burner, broadcom wireless and multi card reader. I figure the card reader won't work but shouldn' OS X install on this and work fine? Haven't messed with it in a while and want to try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IcemanLBZ Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 Hi people, I'm have a HP 6275 with NVIDIA Go 7400, Wireless 3945ABG, NIC Intel PRO/1000 PL, Conexant HD Audio. I Installed Kalaway Leopard 10.5.2 with dual boot Windows XP SP2. I dont test camera or card reader, but this is the minor of my problems. Wireless doesnt work (i buy a Dlink USB Wireless DWL-G122 and replace the internal wireless with this new USB one, and now is OK). Sound is good and keyboard keys for sound is working fine. My real problem is NIC Intel PRO/1000 PL. I tried SmallTree drivers but nothing. Every kext show in this site, i tried but still nothing. Anyone knows or have this card working ? Thanks a lot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks a lot this is strange. normaly the drivers included in nearly every distro should work for this. perhaps its not the kext itself that is not working? i could send you my kext, but i'm not shure which one it is exactly i know, not very helpful but i've got another question regarding to your go 7400. have you got external vga-out? what kext are you running? have you got 32-bit-colour depth? its because that was a big struggle for me, i'm currently running 10.5.6 iPC and do have vga-out, 32-bit and so on but i can not connect a monitor if the laptop is running, i have to reboot, then it works. plus, there is a pseudo-display when no monitor is connected. i know, there are some wrong settings in nvcap but i cant read the graphics bios under windows :-( has anyone with a 7400 ever managed?? btw. i've got a dv6155ea, running realy realy good with vanilla, sleep and the right powermanagement. and.. another problem. i was able to get trackpad-clicking in kalyway and iDeneb, but now, in 10.5.6 iPC I cannot activate it.. what can i do? thanx, andi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sellyoursoul Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 i was just thinking to myself the other day that it would be fun to run osx on a pc, and then i found this place. i was lurking here and simultaneously met someone on irc who is up and running with 10.5.2. he directed me in installing 10.5.2 on a usb hard drive. i'm running a hp dv6103nr. the install went fine, but boot from usb isn't working here (never tested before this point). it looks like an oem bios limitation (more like a flaw). i have the option for booting from usb hard drive in the bios boot order menu, but that same option doesn't show in the boot options along with internal hdd, floppy, network. can these machines boot from a usb hard drive? here's some info on my machine: 30BB motherboard F.28 Phoenix bios 1.8 core solo cpu, (upgrading to core duo later this week) 512 ddr2 ram, (upgrading to 2 gb later this week) any help or direction on what i should be reading is mucho appreciated.

superpimp Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 I've had massive problems with the 8600M GS on the pavilion dv9520eb. I was using iATKOS 5.5i and the voodoo kernel, I had tried everything. seems that was the problem because when I reinstalled using vanilla kernel it worked right from the start (sound is completely fixable -ALC268) The only thing that doesn't work is the wifi 4965AGN, but I'm going to get a usb dongle. (Ethernet works without fix) Hardware: Intel Core 2 Duo 2GHz 2GB RAM 2x 150GB HDD (Fujitsu) nVidia 8600M GS Intel WiFi Link 4965AGN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would like to ask you,if i aquire the 10.4.8 image will i be able to "see" my hard drive? (i am aware of the vmware method but i would like to do a native installation). Thanks for your time and help hi i was having the same problem. i managed it by changing the hdd. you have fujitsu siemens>? because osx cant erase it and instaliantion cracks. i'v tested that wd and samsung sata hdd's are having no problem. now i instaled idneb 10.5.6 v2 ant it wors perfectly!!! still have problems with intel wifi 4965abg with integrated BT and proper shut down!! dose anyone have ideas>?
