It'2 32-bit
Just double-checked. My 2.5-yo MBPro is a Core2Duo but the Model ID is MacBookPro2,1. I believe it needs to be at least MacBookPro4,1 to run in 64-bit mode. Doing a 'uname -m' returns 'i386' instead of 'x86_64.' Also 'About This Mac' under Sofware shows 64-bit Kernel and Extensions=No.
So I'm guessing Snow Leopard on this machine is pretty much stuck in 32-bit ice-age Not sure what else to do to get DisplayLink drivers going. Any suggestions appreciated. |

I think the best solution would be to release a version of this driver that has all the files included. You would think they would have installed this driver on a test machine and gave it a quick run through sometime between August 7th (when the beta program was announced) and 17th. I realize we're all fairly tech savvy users here - this being a beta and all. But to have to hack the driver to get it to work at all??? That seems kind of ridiculous to me.
