AppleIntelGMAX3100 64 bits
AppleIntelGMAX3100 64 bits
Hello there,
I've looked everywhere and can't find the x64 driver for the GMA X3100
A lot of forums are claiming that SL 10.6.2 provides it but not in my install.
I also have access to a real mac which is up to date and has only 32 bits
driver.
Could someone point me in the right direction please ? This is the only 64 bit
driver I'm missing on my T61
Thanks a lot

Re: AppleIntelGMAX3100 64 bits
I also noticed something strange about AppleIntelGMA950.kext :
10.6.0/1 : 32 bit
10.6.2 : 32/64 bit
10.6.3 : 32 bit only
(Original Post)
Did you tried to extract the kexts from the 10.6.2 Combo update with Pacifist ?
10.6.0/1 : 32 bit

10.6.3 : 32 bit only

Re: AppleIntelGMAX3100 64 bits
Thank you for that ! I found the 64 bit drivers in the 10.6.2
I add a 10.6.3 and they were 32. That's crazy
It's running fine now on my T61 but for some reason I don't have QE working
in 64 bit whereas it works fine in 32 bit

Did you also copy AppleintelIntegretedFrameBuffer.kext (and everything GMA3100 related ?)ronin wrote:It's running fine now on my T61 but for some reason I don't have QE working

Re: AppleIntelGMAX3100 64 bits
Yes
AppleIntelGMAX3100.kext
AppleIntelGMAX3100FB.kext
AppleIntelGMAX3100GA.plugin
AppleIntelGMAX3100GLDriver.bundle
AppleIntelGMAX3100VADriver.bundle
AppleIntelIntegratedFramebuffer.kext
That's strange because in 32 bit I did not patch anything for the graphic
card so it should work the same.

Re: AppleIntelGMAX3100 64 bits
So after a few experiment
10.6.2 contains 64 bit kexts for X3100
10.6.3 does not
64 bits kexts breaks QE/CI on 32 and 64 boot ?!! so I am back in 32 bit world :-/
From what I've read this the same deal for real mac computers but I'd like confirmation about that

Re: AppleIntelGMAX3100 64 bits
Yes, it seems that Apple has removed 64 bit support for Intel graphics in 10.6.3. Not sure what that means but support for Intel x3100 graphics is not stated in 10.6.3 technical spec from Apple.

Re: AppleIntelGMAX3100 64 bits
So, there is no way to enable QE / CI in 10.6.3 for this AppleIntelGMAX3100FB (32 or 64)?
Downgrading to 10.6.2 is the only way to go?

Re: AppleIntelGMAX3100 64 bits
yes, right now 10.6.2 seems to be the only way to get QE/CI working with GMAX3100. 64 bit support may come back in 10.6.4 but that remains to be seen.milstein wrote:So, there is no way to enable QE / CI in 10.6.3 for this AppleIntelGMAX3100FB (32 or 64)?

Either Apple is actively trying to discourage hackintoshing or it is abandoning 10.6 graphics support for Macbooks (plastic) which came with intel x3100 integrated gpu. It could be doing both since nowadays Apple seems to more interested in selling ipads and iphones which have a proportionally larger profit margin than macs.
