Hi - I am having some moderate difficulty with getting my graphics card working using DSDT. I have an 8600GT 256MB. I used Tony's tutorial. Didn't work. I did find two things odd that I had not expected. First odd... my card is 256MB. The flag should be 0x10. IORegistryExplorer says 0x40, which translates to 1GB. Second, my NVCAP values were identical to the ones in the example. I didn't expect that... Given the example used a 9400GT, I expected a different result.
So, assuming I have set things up right, does it eliminate the need for additional files? If we shouldn't use NVEnabler or the GraphicsEnabled switch in Boot.list when we use DSDT as the example says, how do I get this card to work?
