i installed leopard ok, had to delete beacuse of error in geforce.kext (kernel panic).
the graphic is a : nvidia geforce 8500 GT (512 MB)
the id of the vendor : 0x1de
id of device : 0x0421
id of rev : 0x00a1
if someone tell me what to do, what kext is needed and how to do it, ill be wordless.
i tryed the nvidia universal install from the wiki (hangs installing, at rebot id not found or something like that).
i tried macvidia (the same)
i tried Nvidia Installer V1.9 by Punk92.zip , the same.
after every install of previous items , complete reinstall, because i was not able to find where the files were stored (it even doesnt boot with -x).
i dont know if it is important, at boot, it says ..
geforce …
vesa 3.0
14 MB.
if i left the geforce.kext of the install, it hangs booting.
by the way anyone knows what is the pause or so when you do a ls in shell?
i tryed with man ls but theres no info about that. because everytime i try to list the files there are so many files...
something like dir /p
or if there is a key to scroll up/down in the shell
(im talking in singleuser , -s at boot).
sollution:
installed 10.5.2 geforce kext +opengle.
changed id to 042110de in geforce.kext, nvresman.kext , NVDANV50Hal.kext and NVDANV40Hal.kext
installed latest nvinject, deleted kextcache , reboot.
qe compatible all resolution , but only 256 MB.
