Same here with the NVidia 310M of my ASUS U30Jc. Board gets recognised but Chameleon doesn0t find the RAM size (says -4095 MB) nor the ROM and ROM patching doesn0t work either... BR,/PA

Got one of those to try to crack one of these days (0df4), but mine is on a Acer. hum... maybe Chameleon is messing up with these cards due to the presence of the Intel HD?? Or the address of the rom changed?? Tablin, all i can do is add you dev id to the trunk so you don't have to do it; i have others to add.

Charles did you get the nvidia work? Thx for updating the device id
Comment 4 by Azimutz, Jul 6, 2011
No, didn't had time to try it yet, but i suspect i'm going to have the same problem?!... we'll see. I'm just waiting on some feedback to add the devices.
Comment 5 by Pedro A. Aranda, Jul 10, 2011
Just a thought that's been bugging me. Wouldn't it help if Chameleon injected the Intel Arrandale graphics adapter EFI stuff?

just add more info in my bdmesg: nVidia Unknown -4095MB NV1ff [10de:0df4] :: PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x1,0x0)/Pci(0x0,0x0) ERROR: dcbtable_version is 0x10 ERROR: nVidia ROM Patching Failed! Intel VGA Controller [8086:0116] :: PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x2,0x0) (currently NOT SUPPORTED)

I just stumbled over this: http://forge.voodooprojects.org/p/chameleon/issues/109/ BTW, I'll upload my bdmesg when I get back home...

I also have nvidia optimus.

Comment 9 by Azimutz, Jul 12, 2011
Hi guys, sorry for delay... According to this error: ERROR: dcbtable_version is 0x10 patching the rom will fail, since that table is not recognized by the code. Anyway, before we accept this as a Chameleon issue, can you guys check this stuff http://www.tonymacx86.com/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=8625 linked on issue 48?! If i do understand, changing between Windows and OS X is causing problems; don't know if it applies here?! Thanks for the feedback :)

i don't have much problem with internal HD3000, its work and have acceleration (1366x786, transparent bar) with macbookpro8,1 in smbios, just can't use dual display with via port (hdmi not tested) i just doing googling for solution, on linux they use acpi_call method to disable and enable card, and bumblebee driver(like optimus on windows) http://linux-hybrid-graphics.blogspot.com/ added more info : Intel HD Graphics 3000: Chipset Model: Intel HD Graphics 3000 Type: GPU Bus: Built-In VRAM (Total): 384 MB Vendor: Intel (0x8086) Device ID: 0x0116 Revision ID: 0x0009 Displays: Display: Resolution: 1366 x 768 Pixel Depth: 32-Bit Color (ARGB8888) Main Display: Yes Mirror: Off Online: Yes Built-In: Yes Display Connector: Status: No Display Connected Display Connector: Status: No Display Connected Display Connector: Status: No Display Connected lspci info 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation Unknown device [8086:0116] (rev 09) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc.

Hi Tablin... sorry for the late answer... yep, it seems the Intel HD embedded on the "Core i" processors "it's/can be" an issue. But, did you checked the nVidia stuff i asked i my previous post?... that's the issue here! One thing at a time please.

Hello all, I am new here, and My note is exactly like the one from Tablin Arya Juanda, except the dev id of my intel that is: 0126 see: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation Unknown device [8086:0126] (rev 09) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: nVidia Corporation Unknown device [10de:0df4] (rev a1) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc.

Hi folks, I'm back from Internet-less holidays during which I was able to hack a bit. I hope this helps here, but I'll do multiple posts. Part here is I have updated to Chimera 1.5.0 Chameleon 1.5.0 (svn-r1394) [2011-08-23 13:57:45] and I have been able to patch the DSDT of by ASUS U30Jc to disable the NVidia stuff. Basically, what I have now in lspci is: paag's MacBook:~ paag$ lspci -vnn | grep VGA 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation Arrandale Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:0046] (rev 18) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) As far as video is concerned. However, I'm not able to get the native 1366x768 resolution of my screen nor the AppleIntelGraphicsHD kext up and running.

Hello guys I have found a way to enable and disable the Nvidia using the idea of bumblebee guys in linux: see here: https://github.com/MrMEEE/bumblebee/tree/master/install-files/ubuntu I tried it in windows using an acpi caller program and it worked well, in my notebook I used the _ON and _OFF methods to play with the card, but now I am messing with the kexts of the nvidia GT 540 and other thing: the LCD is not recognized so the CRT out too but the hdmi is very good and recognizing the LCDs and TVs I plug in there. See my DSDTs attached, the original and the modified.

How come this was given a milestone and then closed as invalid with no explanation? This doesn't seem like an invalid issue, OP describes the problem well: ROM patching fails and memory size detection is incorrect on some newer nVidia GT(X) cards. I am seeing this as well on a GTX 580, device ID 10de::1080.
Comment 22 by Cosmosis Jones, Nov 20, 2012
cuase mingy wasn't workign on it.. and we wanted to close it out and it had other stuff in it about optimus and multiple gpus. please open a NEW ticket w/ the relevant information attached.
