Tried this on 10.6.5 0.8.5 beta. Asus 1001px.

Hex edited AppleIntel950GMA.kext/Content/MacOS/AppleIntel950GMA as follows:

86 80 A4 27 replaced with 86 80 11 A0

Also replaced 27a4 device id with a011 in 
AppleIntel950GMA.kext/Content/Info.plist

System boots, kext loads, no QE/CI.

No luck.

Accomplished the same as aziz.bbb with 0.8.5 beta only on a Cr-48 w/ modified 
bios.  System boots, kext loads, no qe/ci.  Also touchpad is wonky.

I've tried 10.6.0 retail, it had installed nice but I didn't followed the other 
2 steps. My full email is ostapkr@gmail.com

Please send the results!

Honestly I don't think it's that simple. I would just wait for meklort's fix. 
He's working on it: http://www.meklort.com/?p=292

read the paragraph before Changelog.

Aspire, please.

I had an idea, can we write a kext from scratch to support 3150 using some 
other driver, for eg: use the closest gma950 driver and a emulator for gma950 
actually a driver for gma3150, like we run linux of windows etc, I know its not 
that straight forwardbut some kinda hack, cause I have read atleast a 100 
forums struggling for the same issue. There is already a linux driver, how can 
we port it to mac??

Hey guys,take a look on you tube video's,there's pinetrial video about gma 
3150.....the driver will be a package not a simple kekt and probabily we have 
to pay for it......For me not problem....I will appreciate if gma 3150 will be 
comletely usable on snow leopard or lion,even tiger too...what about kext from 
MEklort......I think he is an hero...SOrry for my English i'm from Italy.
