v3ct0r Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Hello everyone, im following this topic https://osxlatitude.com/index.php?/topic/3115-mavericks-on-e6410-nvidia/ to install 10.9 on my Latitude E6410 with intel core i7 m620. But this tutorial is for the nvidia gpu not for intel hd graphics. How I should to proceed? And what smbios should I use? Sorry for my bad english! Thanks!! This was pulled from the "Updates" post directly beneath the guide : Intel Graphics ​For anybody with Intel Graphics, please see Jake Lo's Post for an overview of how to get it working. Please note, you WILL NOT have full graphics acceleration (QE/CI), only Core Image (CI)! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
v3ct0r Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 OK, I tried something new with my DVI ports. Let's call them DVI1 and DVI2 and they are connected to Monitor1 and Monitor2 (identical models) respectively in a docking station. I plugged in DVI1 and booted my E6410. Obviously, Monitor1 came on. Then I tried plugging in DVI2 and still nothing. I shutdown and this time plugged in DVI2 and booted my E6410. This time Monitor2 came on. I tried plugging in DVI1, but Monitor1 did not come on. Any thoughts on that? Does that mean that the hackintosh can only see one monitor at a time? And the resolution still won't adjust. Seems like I've tried a lot of different combinations with Chameleon Wizard with the same results. Maybe there's a combination I'm not trying? Thanks for all the help so far! Hopefully I can get this working soon! Just for kicks, can you try plugging in just one monitor (DVI1) and keeping the lid open? By doing this, you should get full resolution on both the laptop screen and external one too. I know for a fact this works for me as I use this setup everyday, so if it doesn't work for you, that means that I messed up somewhere/left something out in the guide. Sorry this is taking so long and hopefully we can get you up and running shortly . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjwgator Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Don't apologize. I'm just glad you're helping me out since I seem to have no clue what the heck I'm doing! I just tried what you suggested and got some interesting results. When I restarted with one monitor (DVI1) plugged in, my laptop screen came on, but the one monitor did not (DVI1). However, I tried the Fn+F8, which lets you toggle between the laptop screen and the monitor. The laptop screen went off and the monitor came on. I toggled it again and it went back to the laptop screen and the monitor went off. Next, just for kicks, I plugged in the second monitor (DVI2), toggled it again and this time it went to the second monitor (DVI2). I toggled using Fn+F8 again and it went back to the laptop. I toggled it one more time and it went back to the second monitor (DVI2). Both monitors were plugged in at this point. Finally, I tried one more thing. I unplugged the second monitor (DVI2) and plugged it into VGA. This time I could toggle using Fn+F8 through the laptop screen, the first monitor (DVI1) and the second monitor (VGA). However, none of them were on at the same time. And accessing System Preferences -> Displays still showed only one monitor available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
v3ct0r Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Perfect! That confirmed my suspicion that it seems to be the graphics card/kexts! What is your graphics card recognized as under OSX? I believe that because we removed the graphics kexts/osx doesn't have any graphics drivers at the moment, anything more than one screen may never work (yet)! Hopefully, with your help (since I don't have an Intel machine to test with), we can get this working! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjwgator Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 It says "Display 64 MB of Shared System Memory" under About This Mac. And when I go to the System Report it gives me this: Display: Type: GPU Bus: Built-In VRAM (Total): 64 MB of Shared System Memory Vendor: Intel (0x8086) Device ID: 0x0046 Revision ID: 0x0002 Displays: Display: Resolution: 1440 x 900 Pixel Depth: 32-Bit Color (ARGB8888) Main Display: Yes Mirror: Off Online: Yes Looks like that's pretty generic and it's recognizing the card, but not the brand, model, etc. Does that help? Or do you need more info than that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
v3ct0r Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 Nope, that's good for now! If you could test one more thing however, that would be great. Open up System Preferences > Desktop & Screensaver > Screen Saver. Click on one of the slideshows. If you see the preview, post back here and let us know. Basically we're trying to see if core image is enabled at the least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjwgator Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 No. I don't see the preview for the Screen Saver. Funny thing that I was trying to use that yesterday and noticed that the preview was not working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
v3ct0r Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 Try the Enable Core Image steps in this guide: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/286092-guide-1st-generation-intel-hd-graphics-qeci/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjwgator Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 Good news/bad news. I followed the guide and the good news is that I can preview my Screen Saver in the Display preferences now and it looks like my monitor is getting 1600 X 900 resolution. The bad news is that I still do not have an option to use my second monitor. The actual Screen Saver doesn't come up when I click on Preview, but I can preview it in the System Preferences when I select a Screen Saver. And now when I try to toggle using Fn+F8 on my laptop keyboard, the monitor goes dark and doesn't switch to my laptop. I couldn't switch it back to the monitor either. I had to reboot to get it back. In "About This Mac" it still shows "Display 64 MB of Shared System Memory" under Graphics and the System Report still shows Display: Type: GPU Bus: Built-In VRAM (Total): 64 MB of Shared System Memory Vendor: Intel (0x8086) Device ID: 0x0046 Revision ID: 0x0002 Displays: Display: Resolution: 1600 x 900 Pixel Depth: 32-Bit Color (ARGB8888) Main Display: Yes Mirror: Off Online: Yes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjwgator Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 One additional thing. Every time my laptop goes to sleep now, I can't get it back on without shutting it down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
