Collecting some data from macs, for pc_efi.
I found out that we can get rid of natit in some situotions.
to make this i need some info from real macs
to get this info make next commans
ioreg -l -w0 -p IODeviceTree | grep device-properties > dump.txt
compress dump.txt , upload it and post link to file in comments.
That would help a lot.
Thank u guys for dumps. I just made my 2600XT works without natit, with 10.5.1 atindrv ! 😀
All keys set by pc_Efi, woot.
Also we got GeForce 8800 GTS /GTX to work this way!
P.S. we already have this dumps from MBP with gf8600 (15″ and 17″) and from MacBook. do not post dumps from this systems.

we can try already gma950 on laptops, but for desktops we need macminis dumps

Mac Mini C2D
tried macmini’s dump to get gma950 working – no luck
guess it uses some osrt of internal conencters in macmini
and we confirmed G80 cards work
netkas, could you tell more about gf8600?
thx
Rock star, superb, maybe throw in Intel HDA to boot? Any chance of adding different models to the mix such as MBP’s for us santa rosa laptop people? cheers – jl
Awesome work. Pls also look at Paulicats GMA Natit http://tinyurl.com/2yt7ka perhaps you can make it work!
Hi, netkas, will my Geforce 8400 GS work and if yes where can i find the more information. Thanks and regards.
I dunno, will 8600 work or not, need smbd to test it
Great !! 🙂
This looks very promising and is excellent news. Does this also mean that we might not need to add our vendorid/productid etc to various drivers? If that is the case, then that will help make software updates easier. Even if it is not the case it is still good.
Will this EFI info relating to hardware need to be compiled into the secondary bootloader, or will the boot loader be able to read from a file just the EFI details needed for each users specific hardware?
Just curious. In any case it is all very good news.
can this help 8800GT???
Is there any way i can help with something?
does it already work with ATI X1600 or Geforce 7600GT ?
Great news Netkas !! Is there any hope for the NVidia Go series for the laptops (internal monitor not working) ?
Thank you for your work,
Dimitris , Greece

So any chance for te 8600M-GS or the 8400M-GS to get working? I’m really wondering because I’m going to buy a new laptop soon with either of those cards and I want to know is osx would run on it with good support for those video cards.
Please let me know someone, Thanks! 🙂

Sorry, forgot to include the paste:

Finally a dump from a X3100 macbook!

Here is the dump for nVidia Geforce 7300 Go
http://www.pastebin.ca/808651
Maybe someone can find a GF 8600 GT and plug on a MacPro and get the dump ???
Slakkur or SEEYOU, can you guys do a big favor to the creew ? 🙂
Find some friends with PCI Ex cards, the most complicated to find, but used by osx, like the GF 8600 GT, 7900 GT, and plug it on the MacPro and get the string?
Can be a goood contribution!!! THANKS!!!
