requiem78 Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 Hi.I have successfully install Mavericks on Dell E5500 thanks to DaFOB guide for E6400/6500/M4400 which you can find here.I just delete in the EXTRA folder the kext for LAN card and add the kext for E5500.Everything works perfect except for wifi( you can buy a compatible one) and the graphic card(Intel GMA4500MHD) where I have 1024x768 resolution.(Very sad I can't even change resolution through org.chameleon.boot.plist). Here is the Extra file for E5500 Extra_E5500_10.9.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Bronxteck Posted November 23, 2013 Administrators Share Posted November 23, 2013 have you tried adding the resolution module for chameleon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
requiem78 Posted November 23, 2013 Author Share Posted November 23, 2013 have you tried adding the resolution module for chameleon? No.I will try it.I would also like to try of creating a kext for the GPU but I don't know how it could be possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Bronxteck Posted November 23, 2013 Administrators Share Posted November 23, 2013 whats the dev id's on that GMA4500MHD there are a few versions of it. also chameleon Graphics enabler has some coded as X3100 which is not maverick compatible since it would be a 32 bit kext and the kext is not in maverick any way. that graphics is closer related to first gen HD graphics.

Administrators Bronxteck Posted November 23, 2013 Administrators Share Posted November 23, 2013 yeah chameleon has it coded wrong starts at line 442 in gma.c on the chameleon source http://forge.voodooprojects.org/p/chameleon/source/tree/HEAD/trunk/i386/libsaio/gma.c 442 /* 2A02, 2A12, 2A13, 2A42, 2A43 */ 443 case GMA_I965_GM: // GMAX3100 there are modified frame buffer that might work but they never worked for me when i had that same graphics card. mine worked but no acceleration. use GraphicsEnabler=No and try adding Natit.kext Natit.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Bronxteck Posted November 23, 2013 Administrators Share Posted November 23, 2013 well if your using kext util then yes if using myhack method it goes in your Extra folder then you run myfix. and at chameleon prompt use GraphicsEnabler=No at boot up. the problem is it states 2A42, 2A43 is x3100 from a i965 chipset. that is incorrect. the other issue is that apple never used the 4500 chipset graphics.

requiem78 Posted November 25, 2013 Author Share Posted November 25, 2013 I installed natit.kext but still nothing.The resolution remain at 1024x768. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
requiem78 Posted November 25, 2013 Author Share Posted November 25, 2013 I solved the resolution problem with resolution module.The only issue is that when I open the safari the display is flickering a little and I thing it is because of the missing kext for the GPU.
