Hi! I'm currently not using the Lenovo X201, but my laptop has the same Graphics Card as yours. Recently, we've discovered a way to patch the resolution module in Chameleon to allow Mac OS X to use a patched VESA mode of our correct resolution (not a compile-once-and-for-all kind of patch, requires correct timings extracted from monitor). However, the patch is pretty easy to modify for enabling resolution on OS X. The problem: getting QE/CI. I see you've used AppleIntelHDGraphics.kext and Natit.kext on Mountain Lion 10.8.2 to get fully working QE/CI. I'm willing to try it. The problem: it seems that your version of Natit has a drastically different Info.plist. The problem is that Info.plist has values related to timings (like EDID), and as a result, my monitor becomes very funny as it isn't using the same monitor as you. How did you use the timings in your monitor to retreive those values (certainly isn't DTD or even RAW EDID... seems drastically different.) in Natit's Info.plist? How can I calculate those values using my timing info? Can you help me (and potentially others) with this? I'll be making a guide for the resolution module very soon. In the meantime, I'll try to install Mountain Lion without Natit and then later experiement within my installation. Currently running LIon 10.7.2 and Snow Leopard 10.6.7 on an external drive. Please write back ASAP. Thanks in advanced!
Install BugFix 10.8 Niresh12495.pkg
I understand that you're using a VNC client to access the desktop. I have installed 10.8.2 and have installed both the AppleIntelHDGraphics and AppleIntelHDGraphicsFB kexts. I cannot report any findings because if I have both kexts load together, my laptop freezes. I cannot access it through VNC because it never gets a response. If I load only AppleIntelHDGraphics kext, I get a distorted screen in VNC which makes it unusable. If I only load the AppleIntelHDGraphicsFB kext, I do get a backlight with a black screen but it also freezes my laptop. Unless I'm doing something wrong but I don't think so.
Any news?Today i've installed 10.8.2 and finally got my Nvidia 540m fully functional but the first video card is intel :/ any metod to switch from intel to nvidia? P.S When i install nvidia kext os x stop with a kernel panic before access to desktop.
As noticed by several users running the developer preview version of OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion, Apple is no longer including its X11 application for running software through the X Window System interface. A popular option for scientists and others seeking to run specialized UNIX software both on local machines and across networks, X11 has been available on OS X for a number of years and has been included as a default install since Mac OS X Leopard.
NOT WORKING: USB 3 - still some weird issues like lockups or USB locking, audio - weird ports but working, sleep, and weird display artifacts from time to time.Installed using ChimeraOnce OS X 10.8.2 was running on Chimera side I copied the .plist files (smbios and org.chameleon...)The system would now go into OS X successfully, but not before then.Inserting a USB Thumb drive locks up OS X, so I insert it prior to booting. Fixed?Applied the Broadcom network patch using KextWizardNvidia GTS 450 - Kept going to a black screen (no signal) once it would hit the login screen. Didn't appear to be an out of range issue with the resolution. I installed the Nvidia Fermi Open CL Patch. That still didn't fix the issue, so I rebooted -x -v -F and got in. Once I was in, I rebooted once again without any boot flags. Failed! Added entries to org.chameleon.Boot.plist: npci=0x2000, PCIRootUID=0ALC898 Audio Fixed by Applying Realtek AC8XX Patch - kind of. Ports are off.I installed all of FakeSMC, including plugins, BUT it locked up at the spinning icon. To fix that, I had to download FakeSMC r616 from OSX86.net and copied over manually from terminal. I tried this to fix my artifacts that appeared on the screen. It did NOT work.
Install Method:Vanilla ML (10.8) booted with Chameleon 1820, with patched OSInstall.pkg (for MBR), installed directly on the SSDFix the Yukon 88E8056 by editing the PNPID inside the IONetworkingFamily kextUpdate to 10.8.2 via SW-Update online
