cyclonefr Posted May 13, 2006 Share Posted May 13, 2006 Arhturson, ive got the same problem as you and as many other guys, seems to be linked to the CRT implementation. I hope this should be fixed in Alpha003 that supports monitor.cfg = EDID-OUT file Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Takuro Posted May 13, 2006 Share Posted May 13, 2006 worked fine for me, booting on a DOS A: seems to have found my monitor = 170MB my file EDID-OUT contains :"ˇˇˇˇˇˇL-w671LM) "¢Í2úZMå& NWøÔÄÅèaYEY1Y0*òQ*@0pR˝8UQ ¸S/M 170MP ˇH4VNA00947 ª" You need to use "parse-edid edid-out" to turn that gibberish into a readable profile... I guess Omni updates on the weekends. It's no coincidence that 001 Alpha got released on a Saturday, 002 on a Sunday, and now 003's announcement was made on a Friday. If the pattern follows, the driver might be released today, and then he might make something tomorrow based on feedback. I'm almost happy to see him say "Let's hope I didn't break CRT support in the mean time." I'm sure that 98% of the people here, who are LCD users, are a little relieved too.

kris2000 Posted May 13, 2006 Share Posted May 13, 2006 From what I've heard the only one that works 100% is a GMA950/GMA900 from Intel, which is an integrated card onboard Intel 945/915 chipset motherboards. So you'd have to buy a new MB. Thx a lot! There is good news!!! I will think... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My questions is it is possible plug 2 differents cards into same motherboard and choose between their.Thanks a lot and sorry for my poor english I tried with an ATI X800XL and an X700 in the same motherboard, in hopes that I would finally get two working displays. If I told the driver to recognize the second card in any way, it would crash upon startup and I would have to use MacDrive to manually remove the Callisto driver before I could reprogram it. As is, the second card will run at full fan speed until it gets a resolution to output, making my computer very loud until I reach Windows XP. As far as I know, there is no way to select which PCIe card is the primary; it defaults to the upper slot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moomoo Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 there is a possiblity that your display driver is effecting the output of the EDID program... does it work if you try booting in safe-mode with command prompt? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stmkjp Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 I got those results from dos prompt on win98 usb boot-media, a clean boot. if I run it from command prompt (not in safe mode though), it turns into full screen mode, nothing happens a while, and then the screen turns into white slowly, like burning thingy...it really scared me.. I couldn't change the screen to window mode, so i had to close the command prompt manually. oh, and I can't get any message from edid-out, it's 0KB from win2k3. there is a possiblity that your display driver is effecting the output of the EDID program... does it work if you try booting in safe-mode with command prompt?

_M3 Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 Hi, I have read this topic complete; Omni has do such a great job. Modify something without any documentation is a very difficult thing to do. Congratulations so. As many of you, I installed OS X x86 on a Dell Laptop, a Inspiron 6000 with a Mobility X300 video card. But I get the same problem, the installation goes well, but when I switch de resolution to 1280x800 (native), I get the screen cut in a section and replicated in another, I mean that I can get a good image. Have someone find a solution to this…?? nautikah get it to work, but he is using 10.4.6, and I´m on 10.4.5 is this an important diference…?? Did it work at the first try for you nautikah….??? ThomasR you get it to wok by enabling QE and CI…how did you do that…?? Thankyou for your time guys. _M3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rtech Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 stmkjp, I did exactly the same thing. I did a Windows XP Safe Mode command prompt boot and then I ran C:\GET-EDID.EXE EDID-OUT. In my case the screen turned black and soon after it started to become white like it was burning up, meanwhile some blue vertical lines appeared. I turned off my notebook, and after I did a Windows reboot it still had one blue vertical line on the display. This line eventually went away after 30 minutes of using Windows.

TapaH Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 Because it was said to use DOS and NOT win command promt. I used HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool to make my Sony USB-flash bootable with DOS and run GET-EDID. Then I plug this flash into my Win'Desktop and used such command string: parse-edid.exe EDID-OUT > edid.txt And here is what I got: # EDID version 1 revision 3 Section "Monitor" Identifier "Unknown" VendorName "Unknown" ModelName "Unknown" Mode "1400x1050" DotClock 108.000000 HTimings 1400 1444 1556 1688 VTimings 1050 1050 1053 1066 EndMode Mode "1400x1050" DotClock 90.000000 HTimings 1400 1444 1556 1688 VTimings 1050 1050 1053 1066 EndMode EndSection Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
