Canglan Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 Hi folks, I've recently downloaded the pre-patched 10.4.4 installation DVD from d.e.m.o.n.o.i.d and successfully installed it on my Thinkpad T43. Sound and bluetooth worked out of the box, but the onboard wireless (Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG) doesn't. Also, I'd like to know how to tweak the ATI X300 to best results. I've done fair abit of search, but the more threads I read, the more confusion I get. :-( Could anyone point me to the right direction? Thank you!

Canglan Posted February 23, 2006 Author Share Posted February 23, 2006 It's quite annoying that I have to keep my installation DVD in the DVD rom drive in order to boot! If I don't, then it stays at a blank black screen forever. :-( Anyone know how to fix this? By the way, LAN doesn't work either.

weeguy Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 AFAIK, Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG is not known to work on OSX86. As for your LAN, you got to let us know which NIC it is, but if it's the Intel 100/10 VE, the IONetworkingFamily.kext from 10.4.3 or 10.4.5 should get it working.

Tak Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 Dump the Intel wireless and replace with an Atheros (preferred) or a Broadcom card instead. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/9845-1044-on-thinkpad-t43/#findComment-61566 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZildjianKX Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 How is your X300 working right now? Just curious since I have a T43 and want to install 10.4.4. QE? OpenGL? Limited resolutions?
