Dell E6400 Maverick -Bluetooth, Webcam, Flickering graphics

[relic0422]

Hello Everyone,

 

Ive been using my Dell E6400 with Maverick installed for about a week and Ive run into some issues with Bluetooth, Webcam, Flickering graphics. Ive tried Snow Leopard, Lion, Mountain Lion, and finally Maverick getting all to install using MyHack. I noticed that as I upgraded I ran into the flickering graphics and inability to load flash player which is needed for YouTube and other graphics. Webcam and Bluetooth not working either. Bluetooth gives me a greyed out on and off selection. Webcam doesn't show up in any of the apps. Any help or kext downloads would be greatly appreciated. Ive searched the forums with no luck.

 

 

                                                           Thanks All for any input

your graphics are not supported in osx according to your lspci output you have gma 4500 intel graphics. the best you could do is turn off hardware acceleration for flash player. and you might get by watching HTML5 content instead. you also might have to use chrome browser. avoid launchpad and the safari page that shows all the sites in one window.

[Darvinko]

Your machine has Intel Graphics and have no graphics acceleration I'm afraid your stuck with the flickering graphics. Webcam and Bluetooth should work natively. See if webcam comes on using Photo Booth. Bluetooth sounds like it may be turned off, check in System Preferences.

Hello all,

 

Thanks for the responses. Ive been able to overcome the flickering graphics by using Google Chrome and avoiding safari. I can use Youtube with no problem now as well. Still no go on the webcam and bluetooth yet but I noticed that all the DVDs Ive tried to play give an error and most fixes tried haven't worked.

 

Webcam does not come on in any app that would use it and System Preferences show no Bluetooth or Webcam icons Darvinko. Thanks for the heads up Bronxteck. Can I change out my DVD RW for one more compatible or is it something else? HELP

[Darvinko]

Did you try to use Photo Booth to see if the webcam works and did you go into System Preferences and see if Bluetooth is turned on? Both usually work natively with the Extra folder in the guides. Did you install using a guide from this site?

[relic0422]

I believe I did but if you have a recommendation I would be eager to try it. Thanks for the info and help Darvinko.
