borisbadenov ATI X1000-series Solution

[fruktsallad]

ok, my bad...anyway no report from other X1X00 users?

 

Sure, I've been trying this out with my X1400 Mobility (DEV.ID. 7145) to no avail. Keep getting Kernel Panics, seems we X1400/X1300 users are still outta luck.

[cyclonefr]

Anyone here have a copy of I/O Registry Explorer?

 

Update: To speed up your bootup process, delete or move AppleHWSensor.kext

eh man u rocks everything is perfect now

i dont know how u found it but great job

we dont need anything more real hackintosh, except dual display for u

[codo]

i played a lil bit more with my x1600....and figured out this...

 

if i connect my crt mon on vga, and my tv on s-video...my tv and monitor became black while booting....no chance to do something.

so, i tried to connect my crt via the dvi-vga adapter on dvi. i used the adapter, who was shipped with the x1600..

result? picture on my tv, until loading the ati driver....my monitor tell me out of range..even in bios..;/

so, i took the dvi adapter coming with my 9550 (there are less pin on the digital side) and connected this to my crt...

result: no more tv, not even in bios, but booting up well and shows me a picture., so i guess (have no 2nd mon here) if i take the old dvi adapter and my standard vga output..i´ll have dual view...dunno, have to organize a monitor....

 

so long,

Hey PPL, is ther a way to tell OSX i have a SONY TFT screen?

cheers

 

Aberracus

 

 

with this parameter your vga workin perfectly under 10.4.6?

 

what you have written exactly in finishes them after to have applied the modifications?

 

tank you for reply

[borez]

I looked at your card, the DVI is in top and VGA below. Usually it is the opposite. Thus on this card the DVI is perhaps regarded as first output and VGA like second. So the DVI works.

I think that a card with the same output configuration, or with two DVI output will work.

 

Nice observation there.

 

I tried the following on my Xpertvision X1600 Pro, and the DVI's still a no-go. I guess I have to revert back to using VGA then..

[cyclonefr]

eh codo had this idea of duplicating our X1600kext to X1602kext and changing in it the vendor id "C" to "E" to enable the second monitor support such as under XP...

i dont have 2 monitors and dont care about DVI since im using a VGA cable and DVI doesnt bring anything more but u can try that guys!

 

something weird is the fact on real imac they have twice the same vendor id : maybe for dual display

could you correct the link? it's not working... thanx alot

[homer007]

I´m surprised how many x1600 users are in here!

But no x1300 owners or, x1400, x1800, x1900 giving it a try?

 

And one thought, my x800 card was flashed to work as a x850 card (R480 chipset) but when I´ve tried to use in OSX I got some kernel panic screens. After messing arround the ID´s now I have it working as a x850 perfectly on XP and OSX. Maybe possible to the users of x1600 cards changing their card IDs to make them more compatible with this fix?

 

i have tried it with x1400 mobility keep getting kernal panics....!!! still no help from u guys!!!its my third time that have posted about my problem!!

[munky]

homer: in a forum such as this, lack of response to a question or a plea for help generally means nobody knows the answer or how to help.

 

please dont take offence if no-one responds. no response at all is better than hundreds of people replying with 'i dont know, sorry' - that wouldnt help you, and it would make the thread unreadable.

 

the sad truth is that perhaps this solution just doesnt work for X1400 cards.

 

but thanks for posting your findings - it helps the community as a whole to know the X1400 doesnt currently work with this solution, and perhaps someone will find a way to get it to work.

 

fingers crossed for you dude!

[JaS]

I got my x1600 and everything is working well,thanks for the great work borisbadenov

have you forgotten your old work on AppleI386PCI.kext?

 

http://forum.osx86project.org/index.php?s=...indpost&p=14945

 

maybe you could recompile those sources for 10.4.6?

Hi homer007,

 

You will have to understand that these guys found a way to put the X1600's to work, and im sure they are doing theyre best to manage it to work with all other X1000 series.

 

If you got no response is because probably they dont have any X1400 to test, and I've read some posts of them asking ppl to post about experiences with others X1000's than the X1600's they have.

 

So I can only see 3 scenarios: either you test by yourself and manage to achive sucess; or wait for other users with x1400 that can put it to work and help you; or wait until these guys sort all the enigmas.

 

But remember every user wants this to work and wants to help, so be cool and patient.

here is a bit of my ioreg about my display

 

"IODisplayPrefsKey" = "IOService:/AppleACPIPlatformExpert/PCI0@0/AppleACPIPCI/P0P1@1/IOPCI2PCIBridge/display@0/OMNI,CALLISTO/CallistoFB/display0/AppleDisplay-756e6b6e-130000"

 

 

So, did you manage to manege to get borisbadenov hack working with your 9600XT ?

 

EDIT : Oops, I didn't read the ioreg line saying "Callisto". Sorry.

[munky]

boris: sorry, i didnt notice that it linked to a thread which has been deleted.

 

the post in question was by JaS, dated September 10th, 2005, and it was about the fact he'd recompiled AppleI386PCI.kext from darwin sources, and that allowed the bus to be properly recognised as AGP:

 

"Well this one is compiled with the source code from opendarwin and the driver (appleinteli386pci) is quite larger then the one that comes with the darwin 8.0.1 iso for download at apples site.the applei386pci that comes with the darwin iso is 52 kbs in size,the one i compiled from the sources from opendarwin is 372 kbs so..... im guessing the one i compiled has more headers info and stuff compiled into the applei386pci then the one from apples darwin iso.the next task is to get iographics to compile to go along with this kext.the iographics sources have iobootframebuffer and alot of other nice goodies inside biggrin.gif

but im getting build errors,I am trying to work them out

 

Edit: This version the the applei386pci.kext has the assert.h added and compiled into the source of the kext.the first compile didnt have it added.The only reason im posting this version is there was a build warning about the assert.h although it compiled fine I thought I would add this header to the project and see if that fixed the warning .. and it did so if you want to download this one you can.If the first one is giving you no problems then I wouldnt worry about it

 

Edit: I also need This file for these sources to get the iographics to compile if someone wants to go hunt it down it would save me alot of time

Thanks in advance biggrin.gif"

btw this is like this on real imac, so i suggest u guys to do it also

[sheriffbounce]

tried this (IONDRVFramebuffer) but on mobility X1600 u only get the desktop loaded without any taskbar, dock or icons... but u can scroll thru the monitor twice

 

but internal display still deactivated...

[aberracus]

Thats strange sherrif try to connect you screen to the other output of your video card

 

Jas, do you think theres a way to enable 2nd monitor?

eeehhhhmmmm... the other output? hmmm... it's a laptop... and it's already the VGA out which is working but not the internal display...

sheriffbounce uve got pm

u should try clicking in control panel and see the different options if u have some access to it...using IONDRVFb

DearAll

 

Just want to say; after 4 days fight, finally I get it done.

A big Tks to Boris, Wayland and those who help!

 

I follow Boris's method and got it work at last, after that upgrade to 10.4.6 bySemjaza V3

 

One thing is that, I start this with my TFT connected via VGA port, when it's done(in 10.4.5) I lost the VGA port only got my DVI working...then I update to 10.4.6 still the same....any thoughts...
