I got my iPC 10.5.6 working, my graphics card is an AGP Geforce 6200 (0x022110de)

i installed that agpgart.kext so it is now recognised as agp and not pci,
however QE and CI not supported

i tried various things following other peoples examples.
one guy said delete all geforce related kexts before beginning
so i removed them!

i can get my card recognised using nvinject latest 0.21, but no qe/ci.
however i also read that nvinject is not the driver, only an injector(?)
and that the native apple drivers should be there. is that true?
and if so what files should i copy over from the install dvd? i really dont want to have to install all over again!

If you know what files you have removed, you can you Pacifist to extract them from the iPC DVD again (the Packages are ocated in /System/Installation/Packages - a hidden folder on the DVD) then forget about using AGPart and Injector kexts - use EFI String to inject, create it with using EFI Studio v1.0
