NVIDIA Geforce 540M detected

[kissandtellMAC74]

Is there a chance to get this card working in the next future? Do you need some info? First of all I have to say that my LION 10.7.2 install recognize it as a GT 450M, while SystemInfo sees it as a 555M, i think it shares the same architecture, not sure though...

Hey guys, after installing the new revision of Chameleon (r1814) my gt540M 1GB is for the first time detected as such, still wrong memory amount though...come on guys, you're almost there!!!

that are my data shown in system profiler:

After updating to Chameleon 2.1 r1830 my GeForce 540m got detected but also shown wrong memory amount.. I guess we'll just have to wait for apple to add support for our cards. And maybe they'll do that with Mountain Lion

@koryl, our card is fully supported, optimus is the problem. I think you laptop model can have its bios unlocked, do that then set the nvidia card as primary. You can then use it in OS X, either with GraphicsEnabler=Yes or your custom DSDT/efi string.
