are you sure that it’s not enabled allready, beacause in snow leopard it’s diffrent that
from leopard try to check it by:

1st Method

This is the easiest method of all time. All you have to do is run Chess application. Fire it up and play chess. Now if you are able to move the piece . Congraluations , hardware acceleration (QE/CI) is working.

If you aren’t pleased or if you do want to check if it really works. I’ve included other alternative methods. Do continue to read

2nd Method

Check if screensaver works. Its fairly simple to do. All you have to do is go to System preferences and then select Desktop and Screen saves. Select Screen savers tab and do test out a screensaver. If you see a blank screen , it means that your Graphics acceleration is not working !

3rd Method

Test out Dashboard (Press F12) (or F3 if you’re using Apple Aluminium Slim Keyboard). Drag and drop a widget . If you see a ripple-like effect (or cool effects) when you add a widget. Congratulations everything is working

There are other ways to test as well for instance running DVD Player. Downloading and playing mac games such as Neverball.

4th Method (thanks to iHack)

Try Front Row. If Front Row works , QE/CI is in place , otherwise it wouldn’t work at all !

Any tip to activate QE/CI?

I try with nvinject with no success.

Now adding to com.apple.Boot.plist the nvidia stings, but nothing works.

Hi!

I’m wrong, and my nvidia have 128 MB. Animations are a bit slow, maybe it’s caused by Quartz.

Sound works. Mic front not.

Atheros… dont work; all in over net is about leopard or tiger :’( Now i’m using a conceptronic, but dont like this solution.

I update to 10,6,2 without problem. But i still boot with match_kernel.test7

PS2 works fine.

And i have a issue with keyboard. “windows key”, wich need to work like command, are mapped to “alt gr”. And “alt gr” works like command key.

you must first see how did you boot are you using 32 bit or 64 bit in snow leopard
for wireless there are some drivers for atheros wifi you must check if you may have same version you find them using google mac os x atheros driver

it should work nvinject 256M if you have 256M nvidia 8400M GS
Install wireless drivers there are some issues with atheros are working only those networks that are not asking passwords
