Leopard Laptops with NON-working GMA X3100

[kermit1219]

*WORKING THANKS TO CharredPC!

 

In need of help!!!

 

I have a x3100 issue which from all the reading i have done is related to the dual link issue, however I have no idea how to install a DSDT and modify it correctly, and ensure its running.

 

I am using an Acer Aspire 7720 17" (1440x900) notebook, everything else is ok, i have to use an external monitor tho..

I am running retail 10.6.4 and chameleon 2 rc4 ...

 

someone please help, I will send any files needed.

 

Thanks,

Could you mention some of your x3100 details? For instance max resolution, model details etc. For instance mine is: GMA965/X3100 1680x1050 resolution[8086:2a02] (rev 0c) and I face problems with dual screen

 

What changes have you personally done to the attached dsdt?

 

Thanks

suffice for QE/CI. But dual screen is not supported. In my next attempt I'll insert your "(LCD)" and "(TV)" devices with/out the above method and see if it works.
Could you do me a favor? Could you try minimizing your _DSM method to my above "minimum" and check if your display is QE/CI capable and dual screen works ok?

I think we are close to find a dual screen solution for x3100.

[educa]

ok my dual screen works 100%

Is your mirroring working? My dual link is working with your method but only if I use my second screen as extension of the lcd. On mirror my screen is distorted

[educa]

ok upgrade snow leo 10.6.4 and download this

is very important

http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1083

The Snow Leopard Graphics Update

test for you.

 

check mi link http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php...=0#entry1539770 howto D830 X3100

[Einstein_ein]

@educa

I have installed the updates.

 

As I previously asked;

Is mirror working when you connect your second screen?

[Thund3rbolt]

I have a sony Vaio vgn-205e and managed to get the x3100 partially working. It has QE/CI Support but will only display at 1280x768 and not the lcd supported 1280x800. If I look for that setting it's just not in the list. As a work around I installed switchresX but that's not a permanent solution since any exclusive video mode apps ( game typically) {censored} out trying to switch res. If anyone else has had this problem and knows a solution please share.

i attached pics of screen & dsdt is in zip

Hi,

 

Thund3rbolt try adding the required resolution to your com.apple.Boot.plist.

 

Located in either your Extras Directors or Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration.

Mmmmmh.

 

I have an AOpen MP965-D, a Mac Mini clone (it's really the same size of the old mac mini).

X3100 video card. So it's not a laptop, it's a desktop with laptop parts inside.

 

But... It only works when X3100 kext AREN'T loaded (i.e. blacklisted or deleted).

 

When they are loaded correctly, i only get a black screen. I have a white flash and then black screen.

I even tried to fix it with DSDT... No joy.

Forget all this method people,u dnt even need any old gma drivers basically the problem is a simple one so is the solution,there are key combinations that allow you to set your laptop to sleep and such is Fn+ESC key,especially since most system do have a fn key if you dnt search google for the equivalent of the combination,the stock drivers for 10.6.7 works right out of the box,therefor so shud 10.6.3-10.6.6,since when it boots and gets to the black screen,i hold down the combination which causes the system to sleep then press my power button and there i go,full QC and internal display working,now i cnt say wether its due to the fact i already patch my dsdt which solves HPET issues though you can use the NullCPUPowerManagement kext which you can find the tutorial here:

http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=190780

.so do urself a favor google around if u cant find none,am sure theres a place to set up keys for different actions on mac os x which will require you to remove the kexts but thats more of trouble so if you need to, just boot into 64bit mode the kexts are 32bit only so u will be able to boot n use vesa ....i do hope it helps people,i knw it ws a shock having spent a whole 3days trying to figure it out but seeing the internal display working randomly after closing the lead for some timeguess it was a go figure..i have a dell xps m1330 ,intel gma 965gm , 2a02 dev id

Hi,

 

I was hoping someone can help me with my display problem. i recently converted my toshiba r835-p70 laptop to a hackintosh. i believe my max resolution on (from windows) is 1378x766. the one problem i'm currently having is that i can't use the AppleIntelSNBGraphicsFB kext because the only output i get is through my hdmi ouput. to boot OSX, i removed the AppleIntelSNBGraphicsFB from S/L/E to be able to get my internal display to come up.

 

i've tried all the suggested things with the exception of manually adding the EDID. The problem is that i downloaded the windows utility to get the EDID on my laptop and run it but the raw EDID i get are all 0x00s. Also, when i boot up with the AppleIntelSNBGraphicsFB kext, it looks like OSX is using the default display for my laptop display.

 

can someone please help me figure out how to get my laptop display to work using the AppleIntelSNBGraphicsFB kext? any help is appreciated. thx so much!

 

this is my system:

 

Toshiba Portege R835-P70 with i5 2410m

In SL 10.6.8 I can run

sudo -s defaults read /library/preferences/com.apple.windowserver GLCompositor

and I get back

tileHeight -int 256 tileWidth -int 256

which shows it on according to the system

But my screen saver with ripple effects will not run only the standard one will.

 

In Lion (same laptop) they all work BUT Lion sucks with all of the freezes of Finder etc. 10.7.2 FYI.

 

So what else can I test or do to make it show up in Sytems Profiler and work correctly?
