bubba129 Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 Just thought I would add that I have an ATI X800XL installed the drivers... despite what the FAQ said about no support and it seemed to work fine... only problem when I change the res the screen goes black and I need to reboot. Again just thought I would add that incase another person with an XXXX card wanted to try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW, i had something like that when i tried to run both ATIRadeon.kext as AGP. it seems like that while OSX identifies my AGP bridge it cant load up the radeon.kext properly and if i try to load it i get the same symptomes as above. my system is T42, OSX 4.5. radeon 7500 mobile pentium m 735 (1.7Ghz no PAE, SSE2) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CardassianVole Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 For me everything will load up just fine, but when I try to change resolution or refresh rate I get either "out of range" or a blank screen. So close to working. I'd like to thank omni for allowing us to try this! I have an x600 SE. ID 5B62. The monitor is a CRT KDS XF-70 if that is of use to anyone.

curlyboy Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 I tried my x600 pro id=5b62 but all i get at boot is a kernal panic and yes a big thanks to omni for letting us all try this out thanks m8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blkblt Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 Does this driver still result in mouse artifacts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclonefr Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 okay ive tested switching back to 10.4.5 kext and frameworks same prob: monitor still detected falsely as CRT and works 1/5 time either i get a white screen or a messed screen in 2 parts either it works fine lol so close too bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rogabean Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 Exact same as me mactogo. No difference. I've tried with and without theATRadeon.kext and with different versions. All results in the same result. The driver is detecting card ok it seems, it's just not loading fully from what I can tell. Perhaps omni can shed some light on it later for us.

cyclonefr Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 maybe JAS can help us....as he said his driver was working flawlessly in 1280*1024@75 Hz...and in the opposite on omni's site u can see omni can only be in 1600*1200*32 bits and cant change resolution with his latest release...so maybe this can works better with omni's first release who knows? until JAS tell us and share his driver So no one is having the driver working fine after every reboot? right?

Xenokira Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 So far, no luck for the Mobility x300, but I've been thinking about doing a fresh install of OSX, so I'll try again later this evening. Thanks for all of your hard work Omni! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiphaas7 Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 So far, no luck for the Mobility x300, but I've been thinking about doing a fresh install of OSX, so I'll try again later this evening. Thanks for all of your hard work Omni! Doesn't work here either, it all works well up to changing the resolution in the preferences. Id=5460 if anyone cares....... Already tried twice, last time on a fresh .5 install, so I wouldn't bother. Ah well, it was worth a shot, as has been said, this a just a preview(alpha).

Simania_NL Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 So no one is having the driver working fine after every reboot? right? Im on a 9800 XT, it works but indeed after a reboot the screen goes crazy, changing the resolution fixes it. For me QE CI is not supported (im curious to know how you made it work cyclone, since we almost have the same cards, pm me if have any info, merci bien). Many thanks omni for this great alpha release, good luck on your work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclonefr Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 easy Simania just modify the ATIRADEON9700GA.plugin seek for IOATINDRVFramebuffer and change it to : CallistoFB exit and save reboot works fine so u experience the same problem as me?? i guess the first version omni used a month ago was working far better kind of ironic? let's wait for his opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FancyNatra Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 Its an AGP card but its recognized as a PCIe Thx for your answer. So... It looks like that PCIe cards are not working(kernel panic) with omni's alfa driver yet. If i am wrong please let me know. and...omni, thx to let us to test your driver.
