good to all,

I need your help. I have a HP dc5700 with a nVidia Quadro NVS 290 and I am unable to install the corresponding kext, I tested with the nvinject natita titan .... install a kext and it allows me to change resolutions but the image from time to install the kext not sharp, they look pixelated areas of the image horizontally. According comentais this graphics card is supported by Snow Leopard, I would like to know whether Leopard 10.5.7 can be compatible and that is what I do. I've been reading and I think I might have to edit the Info.plist and introduce some code for this graphic. Could you help me? I'm desperate now. Thank you very much in advance. greetings

Apart from having the right device id the kext itself has to support your card's core, for desktop cards they are all usually very similar (so if Apple supports G92 core, all desktop cards with that same core should work, even if apple miss some device id in their plists) but I dont know about the quadro's, maybe they are different somehow.
See this guide for how to edit nvidia plists.
