Ok, so having no answer on my previous post on my iDeneb install, I thought I give a shot to the latest iPC release.

And it turned out it worked out very good, close to my previous experiences with JaS, XxX and Leo4ALL. All went fine and smooth and I am so much close to being a happy user again.

But I got the very old problem with the CI/QE. It was much too beautiful to be perfect ...

And as this forum changed a lot since my last visit, I find myself lost trying to find help on how to enable QE on my card. Once there were some sticky posts on trivial problems like mine but it seems that those posts vanished.

 

So, I need help to enable QE on iPC 10.5.6 PPF5 FINAL, using the 9.4.0 Universal kernel.

During installation I chose to install the "ATI Radeon HD 2900" provided drivers (I will try a new installation using the provided "Natit" too right after I end this post, just to make sure, but I have the feeling it won't help me too much)

 

The "About ...." now shows like this:

VRAM (Total): 512 MB

... and I really hope this time someone will bother to answer.
