2xUPDATE BELOW
I'm asking this to be sure everyone does the RIGHT thing if they decide to apply the iMac Graphics Update to their non-iMac computer.
I'll suppose people knows how pacifist works (opening the .pkg and so on), and they just need to know WHAT to install.
Afaik, the graphic adapters drivers are in
Code:
/System/Library/Extensions/
In this folder, you will find many files. There are drivers (ATI, nVidia, Intel...) and more OS stuff.
The question here is:
what can we safely install without compromising our system?
Once we know this, half the replies in this thread will be fulfilled
UPDATE:
I tried installing only the "nvidia" related files (geforce, nv, 7xxx and so on), and all I got has been OS X using Apple SOFTWARE drivers.
Then I used pacifist to install ALL the folder (Extensions) except the ati/intel stuff. After a restart, I got back to the Open GL drivers, now with a .18 instead of a .16 version.
I'll be testing now with WoW (the game that got the worst happenings after the 10.6.4 disaster drivers).
UPDATE 2:
I tested WoW with the new drivers. I have absolutely no words.
Dalaran with 10.6.4 drivers, lowest graphic settings, no antialiasing, no vsync: about 20-25 fps.
Dalaran with iMac updated drivers, ULTRA graphic settings, antialiasing 2x, vsync enabled: 60-70 fps.
After that, I enabled the 30 fps limit (/console maxfps 30) to let the graphics chip be cool.
And who knows what Dalaran means, will be :O like me.
I just hope a link leaking the beta drivers will come out...
Updates will be added...
