Broke my chameleon.plist

[royalmarine]

I was adding a string, and rebooted. Now my graphics are terrible, and refresh rate on screen is all jumpy.

Not sure whay happened. Could someone have a look at my plist and advise if I'm missing something?

It is easy to see that the value for the "Kernel Flags" key is missing.

Corrected:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">

	<string>Yes</string>

        <string></string>

    <string>01000000</string>
    <key>HDAEnabler</key>

</plist>

Of course, you'll need to restore the value you were previously using for "Kernel Flags" (depends on hardware).
