Geforee 7150M
I have read numerous discussions saying that the Geforce 7150M card is unsupported in leopard. Does the same go for Snow Leopard? Or does Snow Leopard support cards like the 7150m? Direlime : EDIT:: Pardon the spelling error in the title!

I apoligize for double posting, but i realize that it doesn't work on snow leopard either.
At the moment, i don't have the money to buy a new computer, or a new graphics card. I really want to get this card to work under CI/QE, and I am willing to put in time to get it to work. If theres anyone out there who can help me get it working, I would be very happy.
Thanks again,

So is it physically impossible to get CI/QE working? Or is it just unsuppported by the osx86 scene?

There is no CI/QE support for this gfx chip on OS X - you can install latest macvidia driver pakage on Leopard, this might give you working framebuffer (res. change), but no accerlation.
@direlimeSo is it physically impossible to get CI/QE working?
It is not supported by the Mac OS X nvidia drivers.
@direlimeOr is it just unsuppported by the osx86 scene?
The OSx86 scene usually doesn't develop new drivers for GFX - it is very difficult to write drivers for this part of hardware - our masterminds just use to develop methods to make the stock drivers to work on non-Apple hardware.
