MaLd0n Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 Read it http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php...t&p=1503808 *I still need to plug in an DVI->VGA adapter on the unused DVI port. Try this if you get a black screen instead of proper graphics. **This problem of dvi2vga dongle was due to a change in the framebuffer version 10.6.3 +. no need to use the dongle dvi2vga, just use the 10.6.2 kexts (ATI4800Controller, ATISupport, ATIFramebuffer). that was the problem that was fixed in 10.6.5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TH3L4UGH1NGM4N Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 ziospliff you can try the attached files that I have in my post just install the kexts first using kext helper reboot into safe mode (-x at darwin prompt) then use kext helper to install the evoenabler.kext and install the exotic 10.6.2 package it gave me full resolution and QE/CI working in all versions of 10.6. (I'm currently on 10.6.4) The only downside is that I only have the dvi port working neither vga nor hdmi gives me any output not sure why. I still can't find the 10.6.5 beta from my apple dev account not sure why but madld0n confirms that it fixes the 4850 issue without having to install any kexts but this most works for the 4850 cards with dual DVI's and the s video tv out. It differs from the cards that we have which only have 1 dvi. Good luck though. 4830_DVI_VGA_HDMI_SL_10_1.6.3.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaLd0n Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 original kexts + http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php...t&p=1557170 this method has been used for some time but you need the original kexts remove everything you've ever tried Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TH3L4UGH1NGM4N Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 He means the original kexts that came when you first installed the 10.6 system Basically the phones you never modified to put in dev id's and such. It bothers me that your 4850 isn't working with all these methods... This version seems odd as the other makers like GIGABYTE and Sapphire 4850's seem to work fine one way or another.

TH3L4UGH1NGM4N Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 no problem Zio So you can boot into safe mode right and it still displays the 256 mb for the vram for your card? If you want, you can msg me on msn or gtalk I could help you out with it over the weekend since I'm not doing much this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
