jagger27 Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 I have a mostly working system with Leo4allv4.1 installed on my Dell E521. I have sound working and ethernet working. My video card (ATI Radeon X1600 Series, PCIe NOT PRO) however, isn't working. This is what the system profiler in Leopard says about it: Type: Display Bus: PCIe PCIe Lane Width: x16 VRAM (Total): 256 MB Vendor: ATI (0x1002) Device ID: 0x71c0 Revision ID: 0x0000 Kernel Extension Info: No Kext Loaded Displays: Display: Resolution: 1024 x 768 Depth: 32-bit Color Core Image: Software Main Display: Yes Mirror: Off Online: Yes Quartz Extreme: Not Supported I really hope that I can get QE/CI working. My monitor is 22" (1680x1050) and it really sucks at this low resolution. Do I need to get a new video card? I'm thinking GeForce 8800 GS or GT. Maybe a Radeon 2600HD, I don't know what video cards work the best. Fill me in! Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jagger27 Posted October 5, 2008 Author Share Posted October 5, 2008 It's not really all that clear. I don't have some of the files that they're talking about so it doesn't really work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
