1) booting in safe mode and updating might work, but generally the idea of combo updates is to install them right after the original snow leopard disk, rather than booting into 10.6.0 and then installing it from that...

I'm sorry for asking such a n00b question but how would I go about installing a combo update .pkg file right after installing the original snow leopard disk?  I didn't realize this was even possible.

@davidanberlin
no probs, new method for 10.6.5 complete with easy injector kext has been posted
i really reccommend the 10.6.5 update to everyone, C2RC5 is amazing
graphics performance is much faster

Hi Anarchintosh,

Quick question: I'm currently using 10.6.4 with my MSI 512mb 4350, and am using PC EFI 10.6 because my rig is low-profile, and hence I can't use VGA and have to use DVI.  I want to update to the 10.6.5 method, but am not positive that this method using C2RC5 supports DVI.  Can you confirm whether or not DVI output works? Thanks!

DVI is the only one I think works on 10.6.5, it works for my low profile asus Ati 4350 512mb , i imagine your msi works as well. only one way to find out for sure though! have you read through the guide?

Can someone please give help

I have a Zotac 9800 GT 1GB  can not get Dual monitors to work at all.
The Zotac will only work with the VGA   If I have the DVI connected it will not boot

So I bought an ATI 4350  1GB
Now when I swap over I get a white screen after 40 sec of the Apple with the rotating wheel

So I though it might be because of the NVidia Drivers so I swapped back
and removed the NVD*.kext from the S/L/E  directory
and NVEnabler 64.kext  from the E/E  directory

Still no joy in getting the new card to work
Now I have my Nvidia back in and I can only get 1024x768 resolution which looks crap

Please How do I get my ATI 4350 1GB  to work and hopefully with Dual Monitors

Thanks in advance

[brif8]

Not sure If I'm going forward or backward
I have removed all NVidia and deleted the com.apple.kext.caches  from /S/L/C

Now when I boot using the ATI 4350 card
It boots and then both monitors power down  (Orange light) and black display  IMPLIES NO INPUT signal

I can ssh into the machine so it booted and is running but nothing shows on either display  (DVI or VGA)

Any ideas ??

I experience this too when I reinstall my hackintosh
first i'm in 10.6, I need to boot with "-x -f arch=i386" to get rid of blank screen

then I do 10.6.5 update, reinject the device id to Info.plist and it works fine now without any bootflags

Currently I have DVI working only when connected to a DVI monitor  using a DVI to VGA converter does NOT work
Still the VGA  to VGA monitor does NOT work

How do you  reinject the device id to Info.plist ???
Can you please break this into steps for me
Thanks

Just tried to replace my DVI cable to VGA cable to test this out.
Seems like this works on DVI only. VGA isn't working, still get the blank screen.

To inject the device id, look at this post : http://www.insanelym...owtopic=221422#
There is a detailed information about adding the device id in the middle of the post.

I know it can be hard  I managed to get the DVI working by simply using a DVI monitor
Still can not get VGA to work thou,   my ATI4500Controller.kext and ATIRadeonX2000.kext  already had the Device ID

Still would like to get the VGA to function

[nei-k]

I have only an VGA connector in my iiyama display. My card is an HIS ATI 4350 with VGA, DVI and HDMI connectors. I tried both VGA and DVI (with VGA adaptor) without luck. I Did not try the HDMI connector

Anyone updated to 10.6.6 ? Lots of ATI kext inside this update :s

EDiT : no change inside the kext I have checked, trying now to update

EDiT2 : update failed, now in -x, I will check the ATI kexts.

EDiT3 : added 0x954f1002 to ATI4600, rebooting...

EDiT4: wouhou success !


EDiT5:
woot green icons in AppStore !

[nei-k]

Great! I will try to update when I get home. Your monitor has DVI or VGA input? Mine has only VGA input and in 10.6.5 version I get blank screen no matter if i connect to the video card by VGA port or by DVI port via donngle

[ANARCHiNTOSH]

thanks for testing plipli
btw, there is a device-id injector kext for 4600controller over at post here
its called ATI4350.Fix.v2, and it's in  ATI4350.Fix.MULTi.zip
