update 2010/06/18: it's finally working smile.gif

how to make it work:
1. install 10.6.4
2. install a fermi capable bootloader (for install procedure please look elsewhere), aserebln or chameleon:

aserebln (supports GTX 480/470/465/480M + preliminary memory fix):
Attached File  aserebln_fermi.zip ( 85.78K ) Number of downloads: 138

diff (not needed for installation): Attached File  aserebln_fermi_diff.txt ( 1.21K ) Number of downloads: 115

chameleon (thx BiTRiP, supports GTX 480/470):

3. add this to your boot plist if you haven't done so already:
CODE
        <key>GraphicsEnabler</key>
        <string>Yes</string>

4. install the new nvidia driver: you'll probably have to manually extract the kexts with pacifist and copy them to /System/Library/Extensions.
don't download the driver from nvidia, they rereleased the drivers, but without the necessary NVDAGF100Hal.kext.

also, megauplad download is working again, so use either of these downloads:

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=BHSAX759

Attached File  RetailMac19.5.8f03.001.zip ( 7.63MB ) Number of downloads: 68

Attached File  RetailMac19.5.8f03.002.zip ( 7.63MB ) Number of downloads: 53

Attached File  RetailMac19.5.8f03.003.zip ( 7.63MB ) Number of downloads: 45

Attached File  RetailMac19.5.8f03.004.zip ( 1.38MB ) Number of downloads: 47

since i can't attach .001, .002, ... files and only files < 10 meg, you'll have to rename these files to .zip.00* (e.g. RetailMac19.5.8f03.001.zip to RetailMac19.5.8f03.zip.001) and use an unarchiver (or the unarchiver) that can unpack split archives.

5. edit NVDAResman.kext Info.plist to include "0x06c010de&amp;0xfff0ffff"
6. clear caches and/or ignore cache on bootup (you know the procedure)
7. if it's working for you, please post it smile.gif

apparently system profiler doesn't recognize the vram size, but the opengl driver does.

edit: one sad thing: opencl doesn't work yet :/

old post:
so, are there already any osx86 users that can call themselves lucky owners of a fermi card?

it seems like 10.6.3 brings support for fermi cards:
doing a "find /System/Library/Extensions/ | xargs strings -arch x86_64 2>&1 | grep -i "fermi"" gives 48 hits, including things like nvFermiGLContext and nvFermiHAL in GeForce.kext.

and it also seems like the geforce opencl driver has support for sm_20 (fermi ptx code).


so the question is if this enables full fermi support and is anyone able to test it yet?
