Again I would seriously suggest looking into a PCI Express graphics card. Something that you can find reference of being compatible as QE/ci is a must. Check everyone elses specs as this would be a good start. scififan68 referenced his card and my 7600gt has worked well.

I think the primary issue is On-Board graphics in Creatorp's case.

Some 6xxx Cards are supported, for instance a long time ago, I ran Tiger perfectly well on an nVidia GeForce 6200 AGP, I believe it also worked for Leo too.

As for the 6150 SE, not a chance using kexts, and I don't think you'll find much support for that card.

My Specs
System: Custom Built
Mobo: ASRock Z68 Extreme4 Gen3
OS:Mac OS X MountainLion 10.8.2 & Windows 7 Ultimate x64
CPU: Intel Core i7 2600k @ 4.2GHz
Memory: 16GB DDR3 XMS3 1600MHz
Graphics Card: AMD Radeon HD 6870 1GB

It seems quite a few people are starting to fall back into the forum scene
