Enrico1985 Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 Hardware specs: CPU: Pentium 4 3.00GHz HT HD: Maxtor 6Y080M0 SATA 80GB Audio: SoundMAX Integrated (Intel 97 ACH) --> Display: ATI Radeon X300 SE (PCIe) Mac OS X Version: Kalyway Leopard 10.5.1 My problem is that I can't get QE/CI to work. System Profiler says Core Image is "Software" and Quartz Extreme is "Not supported" (I enabled QuartzGL using the plist for WindowServer, but it seems rather useless). I tried using the Leopard 9A321 KEXTs, and the result is that the screen remains locked to the boot messages (or the Apple logo) with just the cursor shown I tried using the JaS 10.4.7 KEXTs and the system locks I also installed Callisto (ZD8000): completely useless Am I missing something or this just is not possible?

Thanks! It seems to be a bust. It really wasn't great in Tiger but doesn't work in Leopard.

Enrico1985 Posted April 27, 2008 Author Share Posted April 27, 2008 no hope even if I upgrade to 10.5.2 and then install the Apple Graphics Update? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/101769-ati-radeon-x300-qeci/#findComment-726307 Share on other sites More sharing options...
GimmeRed Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 no hope even if I upgrade to 10.5.2 and then install the Apple Graphics Update? That shouldn't be a big suprise I would imagine that Apple is more focused on it's paying customers then those of us that are stealing it's OS.

Enrico1985 Posted April 28, 2008 Author Share Posted April 28, 2008 I agree! (but I am still gonna try...) I can change the resolution now (which I do not really need...) but still no QE/CI this seems a mission impossible unfortunately Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/101769-ati-radeon-x300-qeci/#findComment-727060 Share on other sites More sharing options...
rollex Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 How did you mange to be able to change the resolution. I have been searching for some time and can't find any way. I am using kalyway 10.5.3 along with a Radeon x300 series card. I was trying to get Callisto drivers but can't find any because the distro site is not working for me.

jiatai Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 to rollex, sudo nano /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.Boot.plist, add add the following: <key>Graphics Mode</key> <string>1400x1050x32</string> put them before: <key>Timeout</key> <string>5</string> </dict> </plist> it will change the resolution of the screen Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/101769-ati-radeon-x300-qeci/#findComment-786470 Share on other sites More sharing options...
