I'm curious to know more about this issue with the sony screens. I'm dual booting with windows and there's obviously no issues with the screen there. |

Any progress pbg4? I've done some research into the vaio LCD issue and it seems like it is affecting quite a few people. There were rumours of people trying to resolve the issue but I haven't found an update in a while. ... I have my sony running pretty well right now. Only issues come down to the graphics (that I've found so far). I was happy enough with no acceleration for the time being, but I didn't realize that the openGL affected 'preview', 'iphoto', 'VLC' etc. |

So newest update for me.
I reset everything video related to start again from scratch. I injected my device ID into NVDAHal50, NVDARESman, and Geforce kext's. I used ATY_init.kext ... although it is for ATI video cards, according to project osx86 wiki it should work. Put graphics enabled = n in the boot plist, and PCI root to 0. This gave me a black screen on the laptop, but plugging an external monitor into the HDMI port revealed perfect graphics acceleration. Quartz and everything. So now I'm trying to figure out why it's routing the screen to the hdmi instead of the LCD. If I remove the NVDAResman.kext I get the LCD back but no graphic acceleration. So I looked into its kext package and noticed different arrays and what looked like display routing (NVidiaRM and NvidiaRMTwinView). ATY_init.kext appears to inject to a Display-A and a Display-B, so I replaced the NVDA,NVMac with NVDA,Display-A ... then I just got blackness with the LCD and external. ... so I'm going to look into it more. I need to find out what each display is being called with ... NVDA,Parent, NVDA,NVMac, NVDA,Display-A etc. Any thoughts? |

I have the older Vaio Z with the 9300m GS and I have this same problem, after I install the drivers only video out (VGA/HDMI) works and QE/CI does work, but the internal monitor is not detected and stays blank.
The only way to get anything on the internal display is to remove the drivers. On the Intel it is possible to get the proper resolution using Chameleon and the Graphics Mode option but still no QE/CI, I have not figured out how to get the proper resolution on the nVidia at all. There are proper drivers for both sides on Ubuntu using the Sony-VGN-Zseries-janitor script, but it still only supports cold switching (have to reboot to switch the GPU), maybe this could somehow be ported to OSX. 💡 Deploy cloud instances seamlessly on DigitalOcean.
