I just installed iatkos 4i on my Thinkpad x200

I am new to hackintosh's so on my second try I got leopard installed on my new x200. To my surprise the integrated webcam worked during the initial setup and I was able to take a picture of myself with it. Then the webcam refused to work in photobooth because of "unsupported video card". Bluetooth and USB works out of the box too. I still need to install kext's for audio, wifi, ethernet, and graphics, but I don't think there are any because this laptop is so new. If anyone knows of kext's for the following components please reply.


Intel 82567 LM Gigabit
Intel WiFi 5300 ABGN
Intel Integrated X4500 Graphics
Conexant HD SmartAudio 221

My priority is to get ethernet working, then do something about the graphics resolution(1024x768, should be 1280x800). I'll keep working on it and post back if I make anymore progress.

Fantastic. I just received my x200, and will immediately install 4i as well.

Did you follow a specific guide?

I'll also look for drivers for the h/w.

Thanks...

Hi,

Any update on this?

I'd love to try this on my own new X200, but Wi-Fi and sound are absolute must-haves.

I also have an MSI Wind running OSX - truly excellent, if a little small and underpowered....

A dual-booting XP/OSX X200 is exactly what I need.

You picked the wrong notebook to Hack..

Intel x4500 graphics driver. It was expected that new Apple hardware based on G45 logic, will include x4500 graphics. However, Apple chose nVidia's new 9400M chip as replacement to Intel's cost-effective/power-efficient chip for their MacBook line. Since for now Apple doesn't use this chip in any product - there's no driver in the wild... so -- your hopes are: 1. Upcoming Apple Desktops rumored to be revealed next month - if they include x4500 instead of nVidia 9400m, then you'll have a driver shortly after. 2. A driver is leaked to the public secretly by some Apple or Intel employee. (as the driver exists, to pitch/prove technology to Apple) 3. some crazy programmer gets bored and ports driver from Linux


Connexant - driver is in the wild. you may need to do a little patching, but its out there.
Wifi - you need to replace this card with another ($30 or so, easy to install)
Ethernet - when 82566 driver is ready, you could patch it and test it on 82567


by the way, If you're totally insane you can get an Express-Card external Video Card.. yep, didn't think so...

Hey sayagain, as you say, the X200 looks like being the wrong notebook to hack...

While it would have been nice to run OSX on the X200, I'm not hardcore/competent enough to hack drivers etc. Meh...

The beauty of running OSX on the Wind (for me) was that the whole process was quick and easy. Its not perfect, but hey, its amazing that it can run as well as it does. The X200/OSX would really have been nice.

The X200 (running XPsp3) is perfect for my work requirements - I travel frequently and the size/grunt ratio suits my needs - I need to run SQL Server-based, windows-only financial software for client work that I do, so full-time OSX isn't as option for me.

For non-work stuff, the new MacBooks are pretty tempting, if a little pricy....

Please forgive me it was a mistake

Thank you

I just installed the intel 82566mm kext onto my t400 and it works great! (I should mention I'm using this kext with the Intel 82567 LM Gigabit Ethernet Controller)
