uBeer Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 Any luck with this driver yet? Well, what works for me is the detection of my screen and resolution switching. But alas: no CI/QE. I tried to look up the pages and kext that helped me get it to 'work' but I couldn't find them anymore. I'll try to find them later tonight. How I got it to 'work' on just installed iPC 10.5.6: Remove /S/L/E/ATIRadeonX2000.kext Install RadeonHD.kext from attached zip file Reboot while keeping fingers crossed I use a Dell Studio 1737 with ATI mobility Radeon 3650 HD with deviceid: 0x9591 1002 Surprisingly useable without CI/QE! Good luck! RadeonHD.kext.10.5.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck! Thanks, uBeer! It 'works' for my Asus F8 with ATI Mobility HD 3650 too. I can switch the revolution now. But the same, no CI/QE. Please let us know your progress on the CI/QE.

uBeer Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 I have the same computer and used your kext and was able to boot without safe mode, but I still can't change the resolution, how did you get that to work? Sorry I didn't see your question earlier. If you still have OS X installed: could you check to see if the radeonhd.kext is loaded after startup? You can see that by starting System Profiler and then select Extensions in the section Software. It should be listed there. Oh, and if you're using Snow Leopard: make sure the system starts in 32 bit mode. I have Chameleon RC4 (latest atm) installed and I boot into 32b mode by modifying /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.Boot.plist to have the value for Kernel Flags be arch=i386. Hope that this will help you out! Thanks, uBeer!It 'works' for my Asus F8 with ATI Mobility HD 3650 too. I can switch the revolution now. But the same, no CI/QE. Please let us know your progress on the CI/QE. I think I wasn't too clear in that post. I never had CI/QE working: I was talking about the fact that I couldn't find the original 'source' (read: url) of the RadeonHD.kext that I used. So alas: I'm still waiting for that as well (though it's probably in vain...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thejoka Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 uBeer, Thanks for posting the RadeonHD.kext file. I managed to install the kext on my Asus laptop with the mobility 3650, repaired permissions etc, reboot with -f -v flags and it worked. I have 4 different resolutions to choose from with the screen saver working also. The resolution is useable with most video editing programs (final cut and premiere), dvd playback software working, although I will never play games in OSX, for this I use Windows, I still think that to get this far with such a complex and unsupported graphics card is cool. Lets hope that CI/QE gets developed too. P.S Does your computer only display the VRAM as 256MB also? The mobility is 1GB.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uBeer Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 He thejoka, Glad I could helped somebody That's weird about your VRAM, mine is a 256MB card and all information in System Profiler seems correct about my card. I didn't even know there were 1GB cards in laptops... Guess I need a new one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thejoka Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 uBeer, Just thought I would post you a screen print of my graphics card (in windows) showing the 1GB dedicated video memory, however OSX only see's 256MB. Not sure why...possibly something to do with the driver in OSX... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smarty94 Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 Just a heads up, don't hold your breath for CI/QE, it isn't coming unless apple decides to use this card (or similar), due to the fact that it would require an almost complete rewrite of the framebuffers. This has been stated by the resident devs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Times_Infinity Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 Wow, I'm surprised that radeon experts haven't jumped on this thread. But with those drivers that were posted earlier, you will only receive native res, if that much. QE/CI as of right now, will never exist for Mobility Radeon HD Apple doesn't use it in there products so drivers and support for it will never exist. Until Apple starts using Mobility Radeon HD in their systems, you will never see drivers enabling QE/CI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
