~Neo Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 Yeah I'm working on it! I should work fully soon! It can't be so difficult! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaS Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 All I can say is welcome to the wonderful world of trying to make .pkgs for people,what you need is the same metod I use.A group of testers that have the hardware your trying to get supported.Then you have them all get with you on a channel on irc and test the hell out of your installer,with all types of x1600 and x1800 cards. Each card tester should have one install of os x retail,so you need 3 testers for each card.one x1600 pro with 10.4.4,one with 10.4.5 and so on and so forth. once all of them or as many of then as you can get to report success.Release the installer and tell people what cards on what builds are working / not working. just something to consider, Good Luck, JaS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aberracus Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 i offer myself with 10.4.6 (jas installer dvd) and x1600xt ASUS silent version Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
littlepr Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 i offer myself with 10.4.6 (jas installer dvd) and x1600xt ASUS silent version Neo, I would offer my services too but soemthing came up. I have to go make a trip to Florida. Once I get back I will see how I can help. BTW... did you use the jas installer dvd? If you did, did you select the GMA900 selection? I am asking because if you did and your installer works for you then it should work for me. I have the same board you have but mine is the P4dual-915GL socket 478.

krotwijk Posted June 17, 2006 Share Posted June 17, 2006 Hi, great work, but not working with toshiba tecra a7 mobile x1600 (deviceid 71C5). After install i get blue screen and the loading bar on 10.4.6 Already installed the latest bios, this resulted in working usb ports on 10.4.6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~Neo Posted June 17, 2006 Share Posted June 17, 2006 Ok Ok Ok... Thanks for the feedback! I must speak with apfelkraft because he had the same error like other people (never ending loading bar)! So I will take down the installer and see what is the problem (with apfelkraft). Then, if the problem is solved, I will upload the finished installer (working!) Ah, and thanks for the tip JaS! But where can I find a group of testers?? Cya! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnniecarcinogen Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 Now type: cd /System/Library/Extensions/ATIRadeonX1000GA.bundle/Contents/ emacs Info.plist You should be able to find two lines which look something like this: <key>100271C2-0000-0000-0000-000a27898d3e</key> <string>100271C2-0000-0000-0000-000a27898d3e</string> I think you meant /System/Library/Extensions/ATIRadeonX1000GA.plugin/Contents/ not .bundle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~Neo Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 Hi! Uh a few time in between learning... Theres a something to do for you! Please go to terminal and type following: /usr/sbin/system_profiler | grep -A 10 "Graphics/Display" | grep Device | cut -c 20-23 And please post the output here... (with the line above) (This part of the installer grabs your devID...) Its like this: Macintosh:~ NeoPheus$ /usr/sbin/system_profiler | grep -A 10 "Graphics/Display" | grep Device | cut -c 20-23 2582 Macintosh:~ NeoPheus$ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superhai Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 (This part of the installer grabs your devID...) Just a suggestion. Instead of grabbing from system_profiler, you could change the matching to this in the ATIRadeonX1000.kext; <key>IOPCIClassMatch</key> <string>0x03000000&0xFFFFFF00</string> <key>IOPCIMatch</key> <string>0x71001002&0xFF00FFFF</string> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superhai Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 Ahm...OK and why? How does it work? It matches on pciclass for VGA controller (300) and a pattern match on 71xx1002 cards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrivinWest Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 Report: I did a full JaS 10.4.6 install and then installed NeoPheus' pachage. I got a purple screen with DVI out, gray screen with VGA adapter. BTW, I'm using an x1800XL. EDIT UPDATE: I tried a Myzar 10.4.5 install via VMWARE and then did the NeoPheus patch. Now I'm getting a red screen with VGA. Any ideas? Another thanks to NeoPheus, Boris, and munky for all their hard work! Hopefullly I can help get teh x1800XL's sorted!

aberracus Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 you should have a 10,4,5 install not vmware and then use boris method, search for muny post he could get his 1800 to work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrivinWest Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 Unfortunately my 10.4.4/5 Myzar iso won't burn and I've downloaded it several times. This seems to be a common problem. I don't think the VMWare install is actually any different in the long run is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
