Title: PNY NVidia 9400GT 512MB on Gigabyte GA-G31M-ES2L
Post by: 507brewery on May 19, 2009, 01:55:01 am
Ok fellas, I've tried about a 1000 things so far.

Here's the basic setup I have

Gigabyte GA-G31M-ES2L
PNY NVidia 9400GT 512MB Video card

I'm upgraded to OS 10.5.6 right now.
Vanilla Kernel, using Munky's EFI bootloader dealy.

Everything works great - LAN, Audio, etc. Using all the kexts around.

However, I can't get the dang 9400GT to support CI/QE. I tried loading nvinject drivers - kernel panic

Installed the EFI strings using OSx86 Tools Utility for a custom device

However, with NVDAResman.kext loaded, I get a kernel panic.

I changed the info.plist in the kext to match the device ID in system profiler, and deleted any other devices from the list:

<key>IOPCIPrimaryMatch</key>
<string>0x064110de</string>

Kernel panic

Tried installing random drivers from the web for Nvidia 9400 - Kernel Panic


so all Kexts are installed in /system/library/extensions for Nvidia except for NVDAResman.kext. EFI strings are updated, IOPCIPrimaryMatch strings are updated to remove filler and other devices...


The card *works* in that I can get a good resolution by presetting to 1280x1024, but I cant adjust it or support CI/QE

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!!
