Hi there, thnx a lot for this guide, resolution with my ATI X1550 now available but can't understand ho to activate QE/CI, how can I Do it exactly?

When I open .......MacOS/ATIRadeonX1000 with 0xED I see a lot of strings ;) .......

many thanx in advance.

I have Snow Leopard Hazard 10.6.7

Edite o binário /System/Library/Extensions/ATIRadeonX1000.kext/Contents/MacOS/ATIRadeonX1000 e substitua as duas ocorrências do device ID que você substituiu pelo seu, com os bytes invertidos. No meu caso troquei 8771 por 4771

 

Observe que é o device ID com os bytes invertidos: 7187 -> 8771

 

Para editar binários utilize o 0xED http://www.suavetech.com/0xed/0xed.html

Use this app to find the correct device ID

That's strange, you shouldn't have one kext inside another. Use Pacifist.app to extract the kext from DVD.

Ok, using System Info App I find two voices about PCI Video Card:

 

1002;ATI Technologies Inc;7147;RV505 [Radeon X1550 64-bit];Display

controller;VGA compatible controller

 

AND

 

7167;Unknown device;1002;Unknown vendor;Display controller;Display controller

 

 

Sorry but Screenshot capture with SHIFT+command+3 doesn't work for me and i don't know why yet.....arghggggghhhhhh....

 

P.s. Talking'bout Kext I have dragged to desktop ATIRadeonX1000 from the first one and after re/copy in the System/Library/Extension with KextHelper :rolleyes:

 

Re-re-re-re-re-thanx :D

Try re-installing the original kext (extract from DVD using Pacifist.app) and run the commands again.

 

If it doesn't work, try with ID 7167 (re-install original kext first, or the commands won't work)

sudo perl -pi -e 's|\x87\x71|\x67\x71|g' /System/Library/Extensions/ATIRadeonX1000.kext/Contents/MacOS/ATIRadeonX1000

sudo perl -pi -e 's|0x71871002|0x71671002|g' /System/Library/Extensions/ATIRadeonX1000.kext/Contents/Info.plist

sudo touch /System/Library/Extensions

 

Which ID did you use in ATI1300Controller to get resolution change working? Or it was in ATI1600Controller?

I also get kernel panic after editing ATIRadeonX1000, but on next boot it works fine with QE/CI (mine is 7147).

Problem solved!!!

Unbelievable, two days PC off.....after restarting everythings works well, Front Row great! QE/CI enabled, resolution change enable ;)

 

Thank U for ALL
