ChevronX Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 Just installed ideneb 1.4. Am in Safe mode. 2900xt radeon driver not working. Just installed iDeneb 10.5.6. My system's Everest Home Editions report can be seen below: http://slexy.org/view/s2Nvth1Jlw When I tried loading it normally it came up with a fuzzy blue screen. So I am currently in my Leopard install in safe mode ( -x ). Ethernet works fine but both my Audio and Video doesn't work. Whether the audio is not working because I am in Safe mode I am not sure yet as I need to get the Video working to enter normal mode and see what happens. I have a PCI-e ATI Radeon 2900xt graphics card and can't seem to find any guides on setting it up other then a few mentions that Netka has been able to get it working? When I setup iDeneb after trying just selecting 2900 driver and running into the same problem I attempted an install again and selected all the ATI video drivers along with all the audio drivers (a similar technique although not recommended worked when I first setup Kalyways about a year ago) in the hope that the install would just select and use the relevant one. Didn't seem to help. So I would appreciate your help in trying to help me get this up and running.

ChevronX Posted April 15, 2009 Author Share Posted April 15, 2009 Just found and downloaded Netka's ATI Radeon HD 2900 pci-e install package and ran it. It required a restart which I did. Unfortunately it didn't seem to help at all and had the same glitchy small squares moving across the screen when trying to load Normal mode. Now when I load into safe mode ( -x ) I have this error coming up: "System extension cannot be used. The system extension "/system/Library/Extensions/ATINDRV.kext/Contents/Plugins/ATY_Franklin.kext" was installed improperly and cannot be used. Please try reinstalling it, or contact the product's vendor for an update." I have tried reinstalling the package 2 times. Made no difference. Help?
