I`ve got strange problem ( using Zeph. 10.5.2 on laptop with Mobility X1600, SB Chipset, Turion ) - managed to enable resolution, qe and ci - everything works on the desktop. i have acceleration, i can use spaces, expose etc. but i cant use any graphic applications. Time Machine crashes the same way as it did when i had no qe and ci - the same goes with any 3d-related games. apps just doesnt run. Is it possible that it works only in desktop ? i dont get it really..any ideas what could be the reason ?

Author Update #1 @Taisto 2008-07-01

Well, it says it support it - i attached the screen so you can see it. Which fix does TimeMachine need ? I installed something ( i guess it was Networkin kext ) and it still does not work. About games - i tried Eve Online, WoW, and Tomb Raider ( along with the 3d emulated games in VMWare Fusion ) - apps starts, then crashes after 2-3 seconds. could it be wrong graphics kext or something ?

Author Update #2 @Taisto 2008-07-26

Ugh, i`ll need a little help with this here - how do i patch it ? And most important - where do i get cpuid.txt file for my Turion ? I have no idea about that...

Field Note #1 @DoiX 2008-07-01

you can use spaces and expose' without having qe/ci. Go to system profiler/Graphics there you can see if you really have qe/ci. Time machines needs a fix and what 3d games have you tried?

Field Note #2 @LawlessPPC 2008-07-26

run marvin on system drive then tell it to make patcher then from terminal sudo -s then cd to directory where patcher is then run it
