ig88b Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 I have the Gateway NX560XL notebook which has the mobile intel 945 chipset and the ATI X1400 mobility Radeon onboard. I've been unable to get audio or video (except vesa modes) to work with 10.4.4 or 10.4.5 (which is what I'm running currently). I've been reading up quite a bit on the forums and was wondering if anyone has managed to get an ATI X1400 (or maybe even an x1600) working under OSX. Throughout all of my reading I vaguely recall someone getting an X1800 (I think) working using 10.4.4 drivers with 10.4.3 opengl framework, or something like that. I have been completely unable to reproduce any sort of sucess with this card (e.g. getting native res, 1680x1050, or CI/QE working). I get a kernel panic during boot every time when trying to use the X1000 kexts. If anyone has any thoughts or insights regarding this, I would LOVE to get this working.

Dark_Elf Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 john j. daniels, I have the same notebook. Did you get Broadcom network card to work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john j. daniels Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 Unfortunately no Dark_Elf. But another reason I didn't tried to make it work - we have no WiFi.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
risings0n Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 My laptop uses the same card - there is fat chance you can get it to work with osx, i tried kernel parameters, but it does not work, neither does omni's driver work with this card. Whats more, omni stopped working on the driver. Apparrently we we will have to build our own drivers, which is quite a burden, as there is no documentation for this card. (This card doesn't even work in linux - you need to get ati's legacy driver to make it work in the correct resolution (mine is 1280x800)). Thus, osx86 is unusable in my machine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New001 Posted June 17, 2006 Share Posted June 17, 2006 Hmm. Maybe this can work by patching in the DeviceIDs like the Koverg patch works with the 9700.kext. . . the problem is finding the values needed to patch in the ATIRadeonX1000.kext Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gwprod12 Posted June 17, 2006 Share Posted June 17, 2006 What, exactly do you want someone to do? As far as I can tell, there's currently no solution. And if I'm mistaken, and there is a solution, well... go find it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
risings0n Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 ... yes, i know the feeling .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark_Elf Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 Unfortunately no Dark_Elf. But another reason I didn't tried to make it work - we have no WiFi.... Little OT: I made it to work with Nisa's kext. Give a look here I also tried borisbadenov's method but nothing to do: I get a kernel panic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kujila Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 Dark_Elf did you get hardware accel with that method? QE, CI, etc etc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
