[wotobo]

Wotobo, did u get ur card running in 1280 x 800?
I managed to get CI/QE working but the resolution is killing me, i didn't buy a widescreen to work with 1024/768

Never,I even can't drive my sound card and network card,I've tried many times ,but problems exist quite a lot still, the Apple is torturing me............

Hey man, look at yourself because this version works FULLY, only the resolution is the problem, but i think that getting CI/QE working either @ 1024x768 is still good than having only software mode, didn't think that? Read carefully before talking...

[sinnsyk]

still, the resolution doesn;t work, so it's not a FULLY working kext, it's an QE/CI Enabling .kext

i hate this stupid card, i need widescreen wish i could program this myself or just replace my videocard with a better one... :S

Required dictionaries dont find <--- response from natit on loading.

My system:
10.5.2 Vanilla kernel

I think we will have to study whether the framebuffer from our x2300 belongs to the x2xxx family or not before make any change to that natit, but i dont know where to start looking for this, anyone knows?.

Hi all,
my girlfriend has a laptop Sony Vaio VGN-CR11Z with a Ati Mobility Radeon X2300 (Device ID: 0x718a); after the last graphic update, following this guide http://forum.insanel...showtopic=69345 (thank to MacMan2007) and now I've CI and QE enabled

Those are my steps:

- installed Iatkos 1.0r2
- updated with 10.5.2 (thanks to netkas.org's instructions)
- graphic update (from Software Update).
- edit /System/Library/Extensions/ATIRadeonX1000.kext/Contents/Info.plist
- replace the existing 0x71871002 with 0x718A1002
- with the program 0xED edit file /System/Library/Extensions/ATIRadeonX1000.kext/Contents/MacOS/ATIRadeonX1000
- Find: 8771 | Replace: 8A71 | Search Type: Hex, then hit Replace All. (should replace 2 incidences)
- Reboot with flag -f

and now IT WORKS!!!!!!! (For a more detailed instructions follow MacMan2007 guide ...)



However, you cannot change resolution from System Preferences,


but you must add those lines to your /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.Boot.plist

...
<key>Graphics Mode</key>
<string>"1280x800x32"</string>
...

I've also some mouse tearing, but now I can watch my dvd ...

Np man ^^ Nope because i've got an ASUS laptop, not a Sony one...but if you have the last one you'll get working 1280x800. But i don't know if this is caused by model laptop of leopard distro i've tryied it with (i've used Zepyroth's one).

Anyway, put my kext and edit the info into boot plist and try ^^ it's the only way to see if it function

[GTOnizuka]

Simply go here, mine is F3Ke, let us know what did you get Post any (also insignificant) information please.

[lisper]

I got ASUS TOO It`s F3JR.Let me try ur kext please

F3JR works as described for other notebooks with the same hardware : Vista + OSX 10.52 , full hardware acceleration, mouse tearings , fixed resolution , no sound , no wifi , good ethernet and usb but you have to reboot to sense the cable and the usb device (no hot swap).
Will buy a Delkin USB wifi dongle and will search for a solution to the sound problem.
