First - I´m German and my english isn´t good at all.
I´ve successfully installed iAtkos L2 on my ASUS Notebook

-Pentium T4300 Dual Core
-GMA 4500m Graphics
-2 GiB RAM
-320 GB

All is working except of my display original resolution 1366x768x32.
Only 1024x768 works.

I followed this guide here and tried to solve the problem: Deviatos guide for Intel GMA (deviato.word press.com/2010/02/24/chameleon-2-rc4-for-intel-gma-version-2/)
But that didn't work for me and gives me a boot error. (Startup with "efi blabla… shutdown.)

Is there any way to get 1366x768 to work? Please help.

Ich nehme mal an du bist deutsch oder?

Gar keine Chance?

Es ist alles perfekt... Sound, Wlan, alles geht... nur die Auflösung spinnt
Wenn ich diesen Patch von Deviato nehme, ist der Bootloader zwar in 1366x768, aber er stürzt ab sobald ich ihn hochfahre. So ein Mist. Hätte alles so schön sein können.

Mit dem Chameleon Wizard hat dass umstellen auf 1366x768 geklappt.
Super

Author Update #3 @Dancecore92 2012-01-07

Ja dass stimmt schon. Wollte es eigentlich mit diesem gma3100.kext ausprobieren aber hab keine lust nochmal alles neu zu installieren. Habe in ein paar Tagen sowieso nen iMac 24", dass OS X was ich jetzt habe ist nur auf meinem Lappy von daher

Field Note #1 @akimoa 2012-01-07

Easy and Simple there is NO Support for that GPU Chipset and seems like never will

Sorry Dude !

Field Note #2 @akimoa 2012-01-07

aufloesung ja so wie du es sagst aber grafikbeschleunigung halt net und ohne macht OSX kein sinn und noch weniger spass

Field Note #3 @3rdI 2012-02-10

You can use the Chameleon bootloader in iAtkos L2 to change your display to proper resolution.

From System Preferences...
click Boot Loader (at the bottom under 'Other'),
click the lock and enter your password to make changes,
select peripherals,
tick Graphics Mode and select your resolution from the drop-down list,
click the lock again to save changes,
and reboot.
