quixos Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 a better benchmark is "OpenMark OpenGL Benchmark" http://www.giofx.net/osx/openmark.htm x800gt score 8921, below, gma915 score from earlier today was only 557! (x600 pro?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

autoy Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 hrmmm wonder if this will work with my x1900xtx card. You would probably have to hex edit the x1000 kext the same way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just follow the instructions from the README file, it worked for me and I'm using 10.4.5 too. Its important to edit the marked(!) Info.plist deviceid (see README). Also you should use the original ATIRadeon9700.kext !!! A backup is saved in /Users/username/Documents/originals . btw: dont use the v2 patch on a v1 patched file !!

seangiles2001 Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 Ok, im having a VERY funny problem here, i have a radeon x740 applied the 0.2 patch edited the .plist and rebooted everything works QE+CI no problems? I then rebooted the machine again and guess what, it wont boot gets to the grey apple logo and a mouse pointer appears and crashes.

I'm on a 10.4.5 installation and I've got a ATI x700 0x5653. I followed all the README instruction but It doesn't start up. Maybe the problem is in the "ATIRadeon9700.ktext/Context/MacOS/Info.plist" file. I changed 0x5B601002 with 0x56531002. Did u do the same??There's maybe something else? Help me please.

mac_newbie Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 Hi, I'm planning to buy Acer TravelMate TM8204WLMi Notebook which has Mobility Radeon X1600 and is identical to MacBook Pro which has the same card. Do I have to do koverg patch for this card since MacBook Pro has this same card, it should work natively with OS X 10.4.4 and 1.0 patch. Right? Can koverg or somebody please clarify? Thanks.

Stu K Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 Success with ATI Mobility X300 in a Dell Inspiron 9300! Used v2 of the patch and all went well! You rule koverg! I haven't been able to get anything above 1024x768x32 though, although I have been able to take it down to 1024x768x16 to play a game that required lower color settings.

Stu K Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 Have you tried settng the display resolution at the boot? Yeah, I've tried setting it both at boot and in com.apple.Boot.plist. Also, I forgot to mention I'm using 10.4.3, so that might be the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

newtrax Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 ATI Mobility Radeon x700 128Mb on Acer Travelmate 8104wlmi on 10.4.3 [0x5653, 0x1002] Partial success with patch 0.2 - Core Image & Quartz Extreme Working!! VLC DVD playing back smoothly even at fullscreen. BUT lots of window content tearing when scrolling [see attachment] (no 'mouse' tearing though?). Slightly improved by simple one-colour desktop background. Apple DVD player loads, but is unstable and crashes. Desired 1680x1050 resolution in boot plist ignored, it defaulted back to 1400x1050 as before. Overall too buggy to keep, so going back to normal kext for now. Might try it once I'm running a 10.4.5 install. Seemed to enable CI/QE without the driver fully supporting it, in my case. Thanks Koverg for demonstrating that text based plist editting is only half the challenge for hardware support, more binary patching also needs to be done too (by people more familiar with that!) Maybe the same technique might get my Realtek ALC880 Audio (VEN 10EC, DEV 0880) working, as plain kext editting doesn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spooksie Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 I may sound alittle dumb, but where can I find this ATIRadeon9700.kext file. It isnt located in my extensions directory? Do I have to download it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
