Has anyone else seen a problem with dragging tracks and other dragging type things not working in Logic Express?

 

I saw someone say something about this on the apple website, but they fixed it by removing the ATI card.

 

Does anyone know why this wouldn't work?

 

I have a Saphire Radeon 1600 256mb.

 

Thanks

Ok, I got it to work now.

 

I first replaced the 10.4.7 IOPCIFamily.kext, but it didn't make a difference.

 

Then, replaced 10.4.4 IOPCIFamily.kext and that worked.

 

Hope I don't see other sideffects now.

 

Thanks for the info....

Wow, I've been tring for days to get this working. I first tried it on my 10.4.6 install and it didn't work. Then tried it on my 10.4.5 install and it worked. No mouse tears, THANK YOU. Mousepose can only do so much. I also got 1600X1050 resolution on my new viewsonic VX2025wm.

 

Here come the bad part, my mouse is invisible. I can't see it. Has anyone had this problem with this installer? If so, do you have a solution?

 

I can't say Thanks enough!!!

I know this is not strictly video drivers realated but I didn't know where else to ask: My monitor will not go to "sleep". Is this the way to do it or am I missing something? :

cause u must use DVI2VGA

Has anyone with a laptop tried using the patch with a VGA video dongle? I don't see why this method wouldn't work to get the main display detected.

 

Ok so i tried it out and it didn't work. I know the dongle was working cause my laptop was booting to a blank screen. There must be some way to force display detection. I'm willing to test anything to get this working.

Wow. Thank you for this! I got ax x1600xt for $115 AR! MUCH better than the Intel gfx.

 

My *ONLY* complaint is that it seems that the fan is on 100% on the card. It's not super loud, but it is far from silent. Any way to get that thing to calm down?

hey guys..

 

I just got me a Power cOlor X1600 256M AGP card.. upgraded from the Radon Ati 9600XT 256M.

 

Now i used the Automated Installer and i was able to reboot fine.. but then i seem to get jumping lines on the screen... and then i get a blank blue screen and some tines a white screen.

 

I looked in the sys info and it found my card as the x1600 ATI and all said it was supported, which ws coool.

 

it just those jumping lines.

 

and so i reinstalled OSX and did the install the manule way, and now i dont have the jumping lines or the blue/white screens.. but in sys info it dosent say i got a x1600 that line is not there.. and now i dont have screen saver or sleep suppoert.

 

just wondering if you have any ideas?

 

Oh BTW- I Use a Asus P4P800S Mobo with osx 10.4.7.

 

thanks

Hello everyone ! Thanx for your good job. I have Sapphire Radeon X1600Pro AGP 256 MB and with your nice pach VGA work perfekt exept ripple efekts in dash board.

 

My system is:

Athlon64 3000+ Venis core

MSI K8Neo2 Platinium nForce3 Ultra

2x512 MB Kingston DDR400 RAM Dual kit

Seagate SATA 160 GB for Windows and Linux (Suse 10.1)

Seagate PATA 40 GB for MacOSX ver. 1.4.6

Sound Creative Audigy for Windows and Linux and internal sound for MacOSX :( i hope soon will work Audigy on tiger os.

keyboard and mouse are USB (with PS/2 won't work)

Lan : Intel Pro 100 PCI ....work fine

locuras and others lacking monitor sleep: my X1800 will only allow the monitor to sleep on one of the two DVI ports. if you have an additional DVI or VGA port on your card, try booting up with that one connected to your monitor instead of the one you are currently using.

OK so I rebooted and got the blue screen of death (wont get past this). So, ran the uninstaller and now im trying to do it the manual way. However I got half way through only to find:

 

ATIRadeonX1000GA.bundle is missing?! Can someone send me it... can't reboot or anything as im stuck half way through

 

Edit: noticed it was .plugin. Anyway booted fine with the manual install - just still no CI/QE. Again, any suggestion to get them?

Hi all. I just got a great deal on a Sapphire X1600Pro OC edition for 109.00 - 30.00 (instant savings) - 20.00 mail in rebate= 59.00 The offer just expired :D

I used the NeoPheus installer and it is working great on 10.4.6. I have CI,QE and resolution control including my native 1680x1050. I don't have DVI which I expected and I haven't seen any sign of mouse tearing. System profiler reports 128MB RAM out of 256. This card uses GDDR3

 

Thanks for this guide and the installer. Does anyone else have this card? I'm going to attempt manually editing the files per this guide to see if it makes any difference with DVI or the RAM
