Not yet stable. Needs a better kernel or BIOS. Tablet, Sound, and Aiport not functional.
ibm tp42
successful install, everything working (including bluetooth), EXCEPT for that darn intel pro 2200 wireless!!!
What Sound card has the M280-e from Gateway, cause, i’m using a CX2724, verything is working, but i cannot get sound working.
Also sometimes the mouse and the keyboard freezes.
Thanks
hi,

the diplay isn’ perfect, (i’ve a nvidia geforsc go 7400…)
the sound card doesn’t work….
the blootooth too….
*Intel Pentium D 805
*Intel BLKD945GNT
*2x 512 DDR2 Geil
*Sata HD
*LG DVD Burner
Booted and running 10.4.6 jas perfectly except for Ethernet, sound works on line in. Tried a patch for ethernet but can’t get it going. CPU shows up as 4GHz. Onboard video works as well as QE & CI. I’m pretty happy, can’t compain!
Reply to HMS: Hey I am not sure which sound card does the M280 use since I have not taken a look at it, but I used the JaS Sigmatel patch right fron the JaS 10.4.6 installer and it worked right away.
Got the ethernet working useing this off a forum:
For the ethernet, just edit /System/Library/Extensions/IONetworkingFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AppleIntel8255x.kext/Contents/version.plist by adding
0x27dc8086 under IOPCIMatch.
And /System/Library/Extensions/IONetworkingFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AppleIntel82845.kext (or something similar) must be removed to get AppleIntel8255x.kext loaded.
I have a acer travelmate c302MXi and i cant install any Mac OS X, the keyboard and the touch pad arent reconized, any idea abou this? sorry my english is not my mother language.

Sound works if you change Setup by OS to All Devices on the second page of the BIOS. Doesn’t work well on battery power. Tablet and Airport still don’t work. . .

Sound worked with the wiki instructions for AppleAC97kext and video worked with the Macvidia 1.0.8 autoinstaller
running at a solution of 1920*1200 without problems.
Wireless not working (intel Centrino Pentium 1,5 Ghz M)
Modem not working (not needed anyway)
Couldn’t not get any games to work which require Opengl. (Warcraft III, WoW…)
Any Hint to solve this problem would be great

Sound worked immediately! Got it to dual boot w/GRUB, I’m now running Knoppix/OSX. In OSX, the trackpad/keyboard only work occasionally on boot. I usually have to reboot several times in order to use them. USB devices work great however, and the USB mouse/on-screen keyboard combo works surprisingly well.
Obviously, wireless doesn’t work (yet). Great instructions.
I tried this on my Gateway tablet pc cx2720, but I had problems with the keyboard and the sound as well, I had to use an external keyboard in order to finish the installation. Does any one have this problem? I thought that Gateway m280 and cx2000 series are alike. if any one has similar problem and manged to solve please let me know.
Gateway M275
Update! My keyboard and trackpad work now. And instead of Knoppix, I’m using openSUSE 10.1 so that I can use the tablet functionality. Still no solution for wireless, card reader, or tablet functionality (hopefully the last one will work soon).

Works much better than expected. I follwed this guide and wireless, sound, native resolution, Safari, iTunes, trackpad, and dual boot screen all work right out the box! I used 10.4.6 JAS. It’s very snappy even on this old 1.4ghz, 224MB ram rig. Thank you so much for this informative walkthrough. I’m going to try to update all the way up to 10.4.11. I’ll let you know how it goes.
Installed iPC OSX86 10.5.6 Universal on the M275 this week, works VERY well. Replaced the intel wireless with the broadcom, I havenow have wireless, USB, Audio, Trackpad, Keyboard and of course the tablet itself via tabletmagic. Sleep, card reader and PCMCIA still not working. Overall stunning success.
i have a gateway m280e and the pen isn’t work nor is the wireless or Ethernet or the sound and when u close the lid it freezes and u cant boot without the external moniter.
plz help me!
