spockers Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 I think next I'll try installing 466, wouldn't run with the 466 kernel on my hardware, but I can run 581 with the new sse2 kernel, maybe if I use that kernel and install 466 I'll get some QE/CI action.

Prescot Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 Hi, sorry my english ... I not found el 9700GL from betas, you could raise files by rapidshare ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrblack1134 Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 spockers, Yeah actually could you zip the ATIRadeon9700* from 466 and rapidshare them (PM me if you don't want to put the link here). I'll test it on my ToH RC2 (can't remember which build it is). Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruud Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 isn't it possible to use the ati kexts and opengl framework from tiger ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclonefr Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 You need to know that you need OLD opengl.framework from 9A466 to if you are going to try drivers from it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
effecks Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 I obtained 9A466, and extracted ATIRadeon9700GLDriver.bundle from the BaseSystem pkg. spockers, you must have been looking at something else, because in my copy at least the GL driver is still PPC-only: $ ls -l total 10328 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 5285184 5 Jun 01:06 ATIRadeon9700GLDriver $ file ./ATIRadeon9700GLDriver ./ATIRadeon9700GLDriver: Mach-O universal binary with 2 architectures ./ATIRadeon9700GLDriver (for architecture ppc): Mach-O bundle ppc ./ATIRadeon9700GLDriver (for architecture ppc64): Mach-O 64-bit bundle ppc64 $ md5 ./ATIRadeon9700GLDriver MD5 (./ATIRadeon9700GLDriver) = bd7cbc9d791a828dd6c208ff22e9a5ae $ The date of June 5 looks right, that was right before WWDC '07.

domino Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 Anyone with pre-10.5 GM versions, can you pm me those openGL.framework version? I don't have the older versions and I'm going to try it on my 9800 install. Here is the terminal copy command that wont follow the symlinks. sudo cp -RH OpenGL.framework /backup or man cp then zip and upload. thanks PS. FYI, I've already tried using the OpenGL.framework from Tiger a few weeks ago. It's a dead end. I've read that the older 10.5 seeds did support qe/ci, just not on the GM and the one before.

Shako Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 I will check version 9a321 when I finish it. Hopefully that's old enough. Some pirates have it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alicheusz Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 Anyone with pre-10.5 GM versions, can you pm me those openGL.framework version? This thread has radeon 9700 driver with openGL.framework form 10.4.7.

domino Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 Shako, I don't remember how many Leo seeds there were. I don't know anyone with the older seeds since everyone is basically "on there own" when it comes to older hardware. Post back and let us know. alicheusz, as I've posted, OpenGL.framework from 10.4.x will not work on my testings. If you are hinting that it worked for you, let us know. I have dual boor Tiger 10.4.11 and Leo. I copied all ATI drivers and OpenGL.framework to Leopard but got the no positive results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shako Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 Well, good news and bad, I found some Universal ATI9700 kexts in the 9a321 build. I copied all 5 kexts over that had 9700 in there name, modified my ID into the ATIRadeon9700.kext and my system tries to boot but it freezes on the grey apple/spinning/loading screen. Perhaps if we try a build up? I think there was a 9a377 build and a 9a410. There was also a 9a283. Update: Copied over OpenGL.Framework and got to a screen that is blue, and it infinitely loops the loading circle (as seen on Grey Apple Boot screen) over and over.

effecks Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 Well, 9A581 has "some" universal 9700 components too. The question is whether or not the GL driver is universal. Can you please run the same commands that I've pasted into this thread 2 or 3 times? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shako Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 I'm new to this but I think this is good? ATIRadeon9700GLDriver: Mach-O universal binary with 3 architectures ATIRadeon9700GLDriver (for architecture ppc): Mach-O bundle ppc ATIRadeon9700GLDriver (for architecture ppc64): Mach-O 64-bit bundle ppc64 ATIRadeon9700GLDriver (for architecture i386): Mach-O bundle i386 That is what came from the "file" command.

domino Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 There are positive reports that 9A377 had last intel GLDrivers before Apple switched them to PPC. We need to track that seed down. I think that's our best shot without knowing how to code. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruud Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 and should we use the ati kext from that release also? because now i can change res with my x700 with the old tiger kext Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
netkas Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 latest i386 GLDriver was in 9a377, I tried all to make it work in 9a466 but no luck. later got new pc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spockers Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 Found 9a377, but it's only 68% seeded. There's a slight chance I can get the kexts and framework from it, but I'm not holding my breath; never tried to mount a partial dmg before :angry2: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a slight chance I can get the kexts and framework from it, but I'm not holding my breath; never tried to mount a partial dmg before I'm afraid you have less than a good chance. it's just the way torrents work. Good luck anyway. edit: spockers, since you have more than 50% of the torrent completed, have you checked over at mininova? They have 2 seeders there that might help. Just search for 9a377. If you're already there, ignore this post Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shako Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 I have bundled some kexts and the framework if anyone wants to PM me to get them. They are from the 9a321 build and are Universal. I didn't have much luck with them but I don't know very much about getting them to work other than replacing the ID and repairing permissions.

If you're already there, ignore this post The mininova torrent uses the now-defunct demonoid as a tracker, it thinks there are two seeds, but there are actually none. I'm getting 10-12 peers thru DHT, but none have more than 68%. Good news though, a kind soul provided me with the relevant files from 9a321, so I'm going to reinstall ToH and play with that. If I have any luck, you will all know it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
domino Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 can you PM me the link? And did you pick up the 9700 kexts from osx86scene? Also why do you have to reinstall? I assume you made a backup of the original kexts and framework and dual booting from another OS X install to make it easier on yourself? meh, i missed Shako's post for some reason. I'll post back info if he sends me the archive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squeck Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 I just installed the ToH version with Radeon 9600 XT. Resolution is still 1024x768, very slow system, QE/CI disabled (obviously) and mouse tearing (resolved). I can't change resolution, right? And when i have Shako's kext what I have to do? Only replace it with the originals? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
