Any hope for GMA 950 drivers for ML?

Hey!

I really wanna get a D430 latitude. Its the perfect size (12') and it has a great cpu (c2d) so I would love to be able to run it on ML at one point. I know it will run but without QE/CI which is crucial for me. Do you think someday somone might make a 64 bit kext for the GMA 950? 

Also, does the D430 work on Lion with QE and CI?

Thanks! :D

Nope sorry, we have tried a lot but it isn't possible.. And  I don't think it will be possible in the future..

 

I have the D430 (core duo) also and it runs perfect on Lion 10.7.5 :). (with QE / CI).

As Mick said, ML is a no-go on the D430. Apple dropped support for GMA950 (and GMA X3100 for that matter) and I can't see anyone pumping time into writing 64bit kexts either. It's just too old hardware, that's how it goes unfortunately...

 

The C2D-based D430 will therefore run Lion at best (in 32bit kernel mode).
