I installed SL 10.6 vanilla. I'm using ATI 4870X2 but cannot working properly. It shows only 1024x768 resolution. I've tried patch from netkas.org, removed ATI4800Controller.kext and installed these steps: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=155477

 

None of them working. What should I use kext for SL? How did get working? I think I did something wrong. Can anybody tell me the installation instructions? Thank you guys

Elnino, did you manage to get it working?

 

I'm having the same problems with my Sapphire 4870x2 in Snow Leopard. Everything works great in Leopard, i boot to Leopard and install SL Retail from there, install Chameleon 2 RC3, install kexts etc, then boot to SL. Everything boots up fine (vanilla) and i apply the Apple 10.6.1 update. Then install netkas package, reboot and the screen goes all pink and crazy.

 

Specs are...

 

CPU:Q6600 2.4Ghz SCLAR Ed @ 3.0Ghz

CPU Cooler:Asus Silent Knight 2 (Copper)

Ram:8Gb 800Mhz Geil Black Dragon

Mobo:Asus P5Q-Pro

GPU:ATI Radeon HD 4870 x2 (Sapphire)

HD:3x Maxtor 1TB 32meg Cache (SATA)

Sound:Creative SoundBlaster Audigy 2 ZS

 

 

Any thoughts would be much appreciated!
