x video issues here as well. all i get is a blinking cursor on the screen after the reboot when the installation finishes. It won't fall back to the generic drivers. FWIW, puppy linux runs just fine on the same hardware. So does open Suse.
somebody mod this up. i think it's crap that you essentially need to buy a copy of Windows to play any current games on a Mac. Sure you get the occasional RTS thrown your way every now and then. But for the most part OS X is a barren wasteland when it comes to gaming.
I bought a xbox360 the 1st go around mainly due to the $600 price tag of the PS3. I already knew about the RROD issue so I bought the extended warranty from GameStop. Had the thing 5 months in a well ventilated area and I played it around 10-15 hours a week on average. RROD. So I brought it back, traded it in with the warranty, got a new one, and sold it to a guy at work along with the 6 games I played through in those 5 months.
A few months later I bough a 40GB PS3. The only regret I have is that I didn't hunt down a release 60GB with backwards compatibility. But to be honest it doesn't really matter. I stream everything from my Mac using PS3 Media Server which is free. And, I've played some pretty cool games in the process on both systems which was awesome.
It's easier to moan on slashdot
I'll try what you posted and see if it works for me. Thanks for the link. I guess valuing my time is considered moaning on slashdot, go figure.
