Hey,

 

I'm quite new here and it took me a while to get my resolution working :)

That's why I'll try to make it easier for other newcomers like me ..

 

This patch allows you to have your resolution back 1440*900..

I edited a callisto patch so that hp pavilion zd8000 owners don't need to edit anything ..

 

Just download it and check the readme

 

All work is done by omni, I just rewrote his readme and edited a file :D

 

WARNING: Don't try to install this on another computer !

 

This is for an Ati radeon X600 mobility, 256mb

 

Download :

 

Cheers !

Hi,

Thanks for the file. I'm a total novice at this. I have installed the JaS 10.4.8 dvd with Intel options and OSX boots ok. But the screen when I get into the OS is only a box about half the size of my screen and is a garbled mass of grey and black. I can see the mouse pointer though.

As a result of this I can't open a terminal. Can I use the terminal I used from the dvd install process?

 

I've got a million other questions but I'll start with this one :whistle:

 

I'd really appreciate some help.

 

Thanks In advance,

 

Chris.

You should only install the base system and Intel support, eventually extra fonts or lang support..

Don't install drivers with the install !!

 

So, NO titan ati support or X600 support cause that'll result in a black screen :star_smile:

 

After you installed, follow this guide :)

 

Cheers

Does anyone know how to use an external monitor at 1680 x 1050 ? My zd8000 has the 1440x900 LCD onboard, but 99% of the time I use my external display.

The OS finds my internal LCD panel and restricts the maximum resolution to 1440x900 .

 

(I'm not looking for dual display , I just want to use the external monitor )

I have tried many things to get My Video working right.. At one time By fluke I got the Resolution.. But for some reason I can't get the Koverg Patch to work for me at all.. It's really annoying.. I just wish I could get the Kext files I need to just install them Chown them and Kextcache and reboot.. It would make it so much simpler. I have been workin on this for at least a good week now.. IN many different ways and have gotten the Gobbledy goop on install of Jas 10.4.8, have had a Blank screen and mouse, have had the Apple load screen do funky things.. And have seen the screen hang while everything else loads.... I am lost here.. I just finally got Toast installed and have that workin.. PLEASE somebody help me out here.. I am soo lost..

 

Thanks for the Time

Hey Guys!

I would like to thank you very much to get my Broadcom 4306 (which my system detected as a 4320) to work with all your modded kexts and blabla

 

i´m working on a ZD8155EA which is nearly the same as every zd8000

 

now ive got the QE and CI working by switching the Callisto.kext with a modified CallistoHAL.kext

 

The files are from this thread mixed up with another thread, its working fine for me with these files!

 

THIS SHOULD NOT BE USED ON ANY OTHER LAPTOP THAN THE ZD8000 SERIES BY HP!
