nope still no luck. When i boot with -s its again stuck at the same line. Any other suggestions?

but still no luck....its stuck at the same point

i used GraphicsEnabler=Yes

Hi, I have a Lenovo G460 with the following configuration running 10.7.4 without any problems : Intel Core i5 520M 4 GB ram 500 GB HDD Nvidia Geforce 310M 512 MB I installed 10.9 successfully but I can boot only using safe mode. When i boot normally in verbose I am stuck at the screen image attached below. Any suggestions?? I am using the latest Chameleon bootloader and have FakeSMC in extensions. Thanks.

Hey Cassio guess what.....the problem is now gone. No system freezes or graphic artifacts. Turns out that the SBUS in my DSDT was messed up so it was causing the problems and also i added my device id the AGPM kext using a macbook pro 6,2 smbios. I made a fresh install of ML using myhack which is far more better than unishit and got my dsdt from here http://rampagedev.wordpress.com. Its been 3 straight days and no freezes at all. Everything is working great!! Thanks a lot for your help in the past. Cheers

use nullcpupowermanagement

Hi there, I also get the same message while booting but the system boots up fine. Also i get cant load kext com.apple.appleSMCPDRC and some more similar things about the kext. Is it normal or will i have to do some edits? Thanks.

Ok dude thanks a lot for you help. Really appreciate it. Will keep trying. Will let you know when i solve it. Cheers!!

Hey Cassio plz help me dude. Thanks a lot.

Hey Cassio i found something interesting here. I installed the AppleACPIPlatform.kext from 10.7.4 and edited AGPM kext with my device id 0a75 using macbook pro 6,2 smbios and now i can see the gpu changing states.

Whenever i use expose` or launchpad or notification centre or any full screen app the gpu changes to state 0 and after that it goes back to 1 and then to 2 and stays there. Never goes to 3. And i think if it stays for a long time at 0 i get the freeze. So can you help me edit the threshold values for my gpu?? Thanks a lot.

Hey Cassio is there a way to patch or edit the GeforceGA plugin and the GeforceGLdriver bundle?? Coz i replaced Geforce.kext, GeforceGA.plugin, GeforceGLdriver.bundle and GeforceVAdriver.bundle from 10.7.4 and i got full resolution WITHOUT qe/ci and NO system freezes. So maybe editing them would do the trick?

btw can you take a look at my DSDT? Maybe it has some problems. DSDT.aml.zip

I'm thinking of upgrading my gpu. Maybe to 460m or 540m. Coz about a year back my laptop was not working so i took it to the service center and the guys said that the graphics chipset was toasted so they replaced it so it means that i probably will be able to upgrade it.

yes i tried that but still no luck. On the verge to give up now. Unable to figure out whats exactly the problem- hardware, software,buggy drivers or power related. Btw how can i downgrade to Lion without loosing my data? Can i just boot into the unishit lion installer and install over my ML drive?? Or should i keep trying more to get my gpu working in ML?

Yes i have seen that before but nvdagf100hal is for fermi 4xx and 5xx cards...right? And i have the geforce 310m so how will it work?

Really? But then why in verbose does it say that nvdanv50hal is loaded and registered?

Hi thanks a lot for your reply. Kextstat gives me nvdaresman and com.apple.nvidia.nv50hal are loaded and when i insert my device id in nv*50hal i dont get system freezes at all but the resolution is stuck at 1024x768 instead of 1366x768 and i dont have QE/CI Edit: I removed legacyAGPM, used MacBook Pro 6,2 smbios and edited the macbook pro 6,2 part of the AGPM kext with my device id 0a75. Now AGPM is loaded properly which before it used to say AGPM controller unknown platform. Added my device id to NVDANV50Hal but still the system freeze is there but now i get full resolution with qe/ci. If i boot in safe mode then qe/ci is disabled and system does not freeze. So overall conclusion from this, what i think is that AGPM is not causing any problems. When QE/CI is enabled i get the freezes and when it is disabled the freezes are gone. So whats your thoughts on this?

nope i'm not using legacyAGPM. I also get graphic artifacts when the system hangs. I get a system freeze when i go to mission control or when i do gestures on my magic trackpad like the 3 finger pinch to open launchpad. Or sometimes even when i swipe between fullscreen apps.

ok so now i did a fresh install to the internal sata hdd and now everything is loaded properly. the geforce kext and nvresman also. but still i get system freezes. the cpu fan starts to spin very fast and the laptop heats up. This happens only when i do something which uses my gpu. I have attached my system log. Would be really helpful if u could take a look at it. Thanks a lot. system.txt.zip

Ummm.......how do i do that? Edit: Nevermind that. The md5 is 8b4869920cd740414fe6b7e3f0b1be3e

Ok got it. So what do you think the reason behind this problem is? Is the graphic card not supported in ML? But then how can it work perfectly in lion. Btw thanks a lot for your help.

Ok so i mounted the basesystem.dmg and searched /System/Library/Extensions and did not find the Geforce.kext and its different plugins. Is this normal or i have a corrupt installation dmg?? But when i install ML i see them on the drive that i installed but their size is small as compared to the ones in Lion.

Yes i tried a fresh install a couple of times. Btw i'm installing on a USB external drive before i install the retail version when it comes out just to check things out. When i kextstat in terminal i see that NVDAResman in loaded but geforce is not and also iographicsfamily.

ok so i installed the legacy kext but still the same problem. I looked up the system log and found this also : Jul 21 08:27:09 localhost kernel[0]: Couldn't alloc class "AppleHDAController" Jul 21 08:27:09 localhost kernel[0]: Kext com.apple.driver.AppleSMCPDRC - library kext com.apple.driver.IOPlatformPluginFamily not found.

I ttried to add my device id to Geforce.kext and NVDANV50HAL.kext but i get stuck at 1024x768 without QE/CI. I have attached my system log along with a picture when the system hangs. Thanks for helping me out. I really don't get it....the card used to work fine in Lion so why its giving problems in 10.8? system.txt.zip

Thanks a lot for your reply. Will give it a try. Will i have to remove the existing agpm and install the legacy one or install both?
