I have big problems with my Gigabyte Radeon X1600Pro Silent pipe II card (0x71c2).

Since I installed Leopard I can't get it working right. It worked flawlessly in Tiger.

 

I can get resolutions working by using ATIInject but CI/QE is impossible.. I've tried following this guide: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?sho...&start=0%22, Tried using the old Natit ppack from my 10.4.8 install and various other methods.

It hangs at a blue screen when loginwindow is started. No cursor or anything. Either that or no GUI at all is shown, stays in terminal-like mode (when booting with -v)

 

I really need your help! If I get this working I'll have a 100% Leo install.

In Tiger, borisbadenov's method didn't work for me, I had to use the Natat kext..If that can be useful to know...

OS: Leopard 10.5.2 currently eddie's Leo4All, tried Zephyroth' version as well.

”Awesome!

It finally got it working!

I can swear I tried the same steps before..but...

I installed all the graphic kext's from 10.5.1 and got CI/QE with terrible tearing, then I installed the Graphics update and before I restarted I installed the my modified kexts.

BAM! Full CI/QE, DVI and everything.”

 

maybe this is the solution but I didn't try yet

Oh boy... It worked!!!

Thank you so very much!

 

I installed Leo4all and after getting to the desktop the first thing, i did was to install the patch from dionysossss.

Ilife 08 works like a charm and Vmware fusion with Win XP the same. Great!
