Hi,

I am new to osx86, so I would really be gratefull if you could upload the kexts as well as a tutorial of how to do the necessary configurations.

 

I have a ASUS X1600pro 256MB ID:I0x72c0, your's I0x71c0, so I don't know if your kexts will work, but at least it's a start.

 

Thanks in advance.

its a little hard to solve problem but i did.... now i can see all resolutions. if anyone need kext files i can upload them.....

 

Please I do need.

Did you get extended desktop too?

 

If you can post a link to the files would be great.

 

I manage to get them working with a x1650 kext but its not the best.

firstly i am really new at mac and editing kext files. i cannot take any responsibility about the kext files and your hardware.

My garphic card is sapphire x1600 xt pciexpress. and i cannot use dvi. just vga.

link includes the kext files which are edited by me and which i use now... and a screenshot for resolutions....

kext files link.

http://r***dshare.com/files/107700251/x1600_kext_files.zip               

  ***=api

 

or  you can edit your kext files step by step

 1-) goto System/Library/Extensions and delete all Geforce and ati kext files except these five files.

ATIRadeonX1000.kext

ATIRadeonX1000GA.plugin

ATIRadeonX1000GLDriver.bundle

ATIRadeonX1000VADriver.bundle

ATINDRV.kext

 

2-) copy  these three files to your desktop to wrok on them.

ATIRadeonX1000.kext

ATIRadeonX1000GA.plugin

ATINDRV.kext

 

3-) right click ATINDRV.kext and click show package contents and open Contents folder. then open folder Plugins there are 8 kext files.their names are 

ATY_Alopias.kext

ATY_Caretta.kext

ATY_Hypoprion.kext

ATY_Iago.kext

ATY_Lamna.kext

ATYSphyrna.kext

ATY_Triakis.kext

ATY_Wormy.kext

 

right click every 8 kext files one by one and click show package contents. open Contents folder and open info.plist files with textedit

and change <string>IONDRVDevice</string> lines with <string>IOPCIDevice</string>

 

4-) Only at ATY_Wormy.kext file you need to change an extra line.

change line <string>ATY,WORMY</string> with <string>display</string>

then save and exit from ATINDRV.kext file.

 

5-) right click ATIRadeonX1000.kext and click show package contents. open Contents folder and open info.plist file with text edit.

find the line which includes <key>IOPCIMatch</key> under this line there is/are device ids. delete all ids. and write your own id.

 

forexample my device id is Vendor: ATI (0x1002) Device ID: 0x71c0i changed that line like this

<key>IOPCIMatch</key>

<string>0x71C01002</string>

than save and exit this file too.

 

6-)open ATIRadeonX1000GA.plugin's info.plist file like the others and find two lines like 

<key>100271C2-0000-0000-0000-000a27898d3e</key>

<string>100271C2-0000-0000-0000-000a27898d3e</string>

 

now change 100271C2 part with your devices id... 

forexample after i changed this lines in my files they are look like 

<key>100271C0-0000-0000-0000-000a27898d3e</key>

<string>100271C0-0000-0000-0000-000a27898d3e</string>

now save and exit this file too...

 

7-)now copy these files to Sysytem/Library/Extensions

if mac os ask to replace these files with the old files click yes to confirm.

 

8-)open terminal and run these commands.

sudo rm /System/Library/Extensions.mkext

sudo rm /System/Library/Extensions.kextcache

sudo kextcache -k /System/Library/Extensions

 

9-) open disk utility and clik on the disk which you installed the mac os. and click Repair Disk Permissions.

reboot your mac, change your resolution and have fun...

 

NOTE: sorry for my English...

just VGA...  if you have any idea to use DVI please tell me too....

konuyu güzelce anlatmışsın öncelikle teşekkür ederim. aynen dediklerini tek tek yaptım ama malesef 40 defa leopard kuran belki başka biri yoktur. her uygulamada ya gri elmalı loading ekranında takıldı. yada elmadan sonra birden siyah ekrana geçti uzun beklemelerime rahmen orda kala kaldı. ve her seferinde aynı sorunla tekrar tekrar sistemi kurdum. inat ettim :)

 

bana msnden yardımcı olabilecek arkadaş lütfen eklesin. msn: xpurcom@hotmail.com
