Plz help. Here is the info about my IGP.

OMX-Knuckles Posted July 11, 2008 Share Posted July 11, 2008 Sorry, I've never heard of that card working with OS X. ATI and NVidia cards are the only ones with full support.

Rikad Rahman Posted July 13, 2008 Author Share Posted July 13, 2008 It is a n integrated agp. I have the source code of the driver and also have linux drivers. Is there any way to compile the source for leo driver? Or use the linux driver by modifying? How to compile a driver for osx from source? Plz give me some advice or links.

potenuse Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 Actually it is possible to get this card working. I guess what the nay-sayers mean is that there is no pre-existing hack for this card that you can just download. I'm working on a driver based on the source but it's complicated and time consuming and nothing is properly documented. My card currently works fine in Vesa and I've modified a version of Natit to detect it but it doesn't offer hardware acceleration. In any case, the answer is these things are possible but will depend on people with way too much free time making it a personal crusade... ;-) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/114514-via-chrome9-hc-igp-driver/#findComment-1067864 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slice Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 It is a hard task even for software company like Apple. 10 programmers must work during a year having all necessary documentation.

braveskunk Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 i think all you will get is VESA mode. i had one fujitsu siemens laptop with that card and gave up after few weeks of trying. there are so little people with it so almost no one bothers. i would recommend replace your mobo with integrated graphics like GMA950(they are very cheap now) and just swap the mobo's.

potenuse Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 Can you send me your Natit.kext? OK. I'm getting PMs for this, so here is the modified Natit that basically just injects some of the right strings. It's only using VESA but I've been too busy to spend the time on getting 2D acceleration working. It's doable, but, I basically agree that the VIA Chrome chipset sucks - it doesn't do good 3D even with Windoze so I can't see myself spending lots of time to get this working. I guess it's (mildly) better than nothing though...

osmano807 Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 I installed driver above, until he identifies the external monitor in the BOOT, but, the system continues not identifying and not allowing I to use a external monitor (until the resolution of the intern it has that to be forced…) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/114514-via-chrome9-hc-igp-driver/#findComment-1188676 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unrealized^ Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 It not work in Linux!!!!! Only with VESA!!! I have the same card on my notebook, and work with vesa.
