~Neo Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 Yes right! you can go back to 2.7... If you updated directly from 2.7 to 3.2 then just do the simple deinstall (deinstallscript) If you deinstalled 2.7 and installed 3.2 then you have to deinstall 3.2 and then install 2.7 again! Good luck! And: What do you say to my new sig and my avatar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ѕӎѳѳ₮ңӌ Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 And: What do you say to my new sig and my avatar? Its nice, but i'd round the edges of the sig. EDIT- Much nicer I had this problem with my GMA950 and 10.4.6 install. On a goof I added my desktop resolution to the boot plist in the SystemConfig (sorry Im at work and can't give the exact path and filename). Anyway its the file you would modify if you wanted a different resolution on bootup. This works for me and after wakeing my monitor is back to 1280x1024 like it should be. If you could expand on this..... so others can try it. I'll try it when i have a running system Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hanZen Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 I need your help!! I recently installed OSX86 10.4.6 (+10.4.7 update) on my compitable PC! I running with a EAX1600XT slient from ASUS, and from the beginning, after deleting the ATI kexts, it showed up in native resolution (1680x1050) via DVI, with rotation, sleep ect working. The only thing I cannot giet to work is QE and CI - and I KNOW that it can work, because several memebers in here have reported that the EAX1600XT is one of the best cars for OSX86! So I must be doing something wrong!? I tried editing the ATIX1000Radeon kexts (Boris method) - that gave me full resolution ect, but NO EQ/CI. I then tried the Boris' patch (the one from NeoPheus) and when it boots into OSX86 it gives me A LOT of artifacts, both with VGA DVI, and after a while it just hangs and I can't do anything!? I actually got to check the info about 'My Mac' before it began to hang, at it showed me that the QE and CI was supported! So that must mean the it is possible!?? What do I do???

I am using the goatsecs dvd with 10,4,6 (sse3 10,4,4 kernal). My Xbench is 71,24 One little problem - No ripple effect on dashboard. It kind of stutters a bit then stops, everything else i think works fine. Maybe My setup - AMD Sempron64 2600+, 80gb harddisk ide, nforce4 motherboard, usb sound hercules pocket. I have disabled beamsync and i have activated uartz 2d extreme with QuartzSimple Below is my system info for my graphic card Radeon X1600 Series: Chipset Model: Radeon X1600 Series Type: VGA-Compatible Controller Bus: PCIe Slot: PCIEX1_2 VRAM (Total): 256 MB Vendor: ATI (0x1002) Device ID: 0x71c2 Revision ID: 0x0000 Displays: Display: Resolution: 1280 x 1024 @ 75 Hz Depth: 32-bit Color Core Image: Supported Main Display: Yes Mirror: Off Online: Yes Quartz 2D Extreme: Supported Quartz Extreme: Supported Rotation: Supported Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi hanZen, The patch from NeoPheus doesn't work with the Asus EAX1600XT. It never worked with mine (I tested several version of the patch with no sucess. Each times I got artefacts too). The best solution is to follow the tutorial of this topic (First page), and apply the hack as described. Be sure, that you will get CI and QE working with no artefacts. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

~Neo Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 Hey there! Sorry for the long waiting time! Why the patch doesn't work with EAX1600XT? What versions did you try, martun? If you can do a reinstall (or another hdd) then you could try this on a fresh install... but i can't promise anything! So let me know if it works with a fresh install of OS X, plz! For dash-ripple-effect: I installed the patch on my computer too and the ripple effect is working fine! (version 3.2) Hum, very confusing! cYa!

Takuro Posted July 6, 2006 Share Posted July 6, 2006 I have the exact same card as georgeanton. Everything is working amazingly well except for two things: 1) The login screen appears at a larger resolution than my monitor supports, so it looks scrunched. As soon as I log in, however, the resolution is set to the proper size. 2) DVI doesn't work. VGA is really hard on my eyes. Is there any way to fix this?

mifki Posted July 6, 2006 Share Posted July 6, 2006 Yes Neopheus, your installer doesnt work with ASUS EAX1600XT on any OS X verison (i tried 10.4.4,10.4.5, and 10.4.6) it just gives horrible artifacts (luckily the de-instller script works). And to hanzen, just folow the manual method and it'll work fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tsr.fr Posted July 6, 2006 Share Posted July 6, 2006 Hi there, after using the installer "borisbadenov_3.2.pkg" everything i thought was working fine ---- In the first couple of hours of use i notice that when some windows open they are covered by a purple translucent screen (see attatchments) Also i am not getting any ripple effect in dashobard I have yet to test this card out on 3d gaming. The purple cloud that appears over windows does dissapear if i hide the window and then expose it again but it reappearss intermittently. Do you thionk i would be better to install x1600pro manually instead of with the neopheus driver ??? Thanks in advance Just to let you know i have disabled quartz 2d extreme and it seems to have gotten rid of the purple cloud although 3d apps like sktchup still seem a little laggy??? Just tried iphoto and sliders for adjustments dont ??? gonna do update and see if that helps (just tried update and it is the same) Halo boots and i can see startup videos b ut when it gets too the menu i get black screen, its working as i can hear when the cursor is over menu select items but its just a black screen, this happens in full screen mode and windowed mode Have i got opengl problems ????
