Hello,

 

I wasnt around for some time, because I cant make my Radeon 9800XT 128MB, AGP8x run with Hardware acc. on Leopard.

 

There is new update and time has passed, so I am interested if someone can make this (or similar) card to work on Leopard?

 

If not, can someone post me working kext from 10.4.4 or older OSx so I can try it myself.

 

 

 

Any tips are welcome because without HW acc OSx is useless for me.

Thank you!

You can't.

 

There's no Intel R3xx drivers in 10.5.x, only PPC versions, and 10.4.x versions of the kexts don't work.

 

For all intents and purposes, getting an R3xx card running with acceleration is impossible.

 

You can probably pick up a GeForce 6 series AGP card on eBay for peanuts now though.
