IS there a way to mirror two Displays?
« Thread Started on Jul 16, 2010, 2:38pm »

OSX 10.6.4 only Dual Monitoring is working.
Mirror Display shows one Monitor black, only with mouse pointer....
Is there a way to make it work?
I have a Nvidia 8600GT.

Working fine here. 6 monitors on 3 cards (well, I only have 2 monitors but all DVI outputs are working as is mirroring). So which method of injection are you using.

I am using DSDT for my GeForce 8600 GT. All DVIs are working but they do not work in Mirror mode! How did you install your card?
Via EFI String?
3 Cards in one Hackintosh? And they a in Mirror Mode?

I am still looking for a solution to mirror displays with NVidia Gfx in a Hacky.
I tested with a ATI4780 and there mirroring is working.
I have testet som 9600GT some 8600GT and they will not do the job.
Any idea to patch that? Would be nice to see them work...

Hey, do you use your 480s for mirroring? How many displays can you connect to the 480s? Two or three?
I do neot get my two Nvidia 9600GT to work in mirror mode!

Hey there, here i am up again with an old Problem. So far i have running 2x NVIDIA 9600 GT 512MB (passiv from Sparkle) in my Hacky. Unfortunatly still no solution to mirror the displays! Both cards working together via DSDT with embedded EFI String Informations. Any help or solution to fix this last part wich is not working. Sometimes it would be great to be able to use the mirror display mode!
Help would be really great... I searched a lot without success.
