Newgy Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 I know how much a of a simple question this is going to sound to you guys, most of you guys are familiar with using OSX X86, I've only had it up and running for not even 18 hours so far. I cannot figure out how to change the screen resolution of the desktop. It is stuck at 1028x768. When I go to "control panel" or whatever it is called on OS X. It says, under display preferences, that the only one that you can choose is "1028 x 768". From reading other threads (and yes, I have spent this morning trying to find an understandable answer for this problem - using search and everything else), I found out that I could go look and see what display's it was capable of using. So I've already gone through the bootup thing of seeing what I can use. But the thing is that none of the ones that are shown are actually accessible from the OS. I am running a Radeon 9600 XT AGP x8 graphics card. I've also been looking for drivers to install on here - but I am not understanding how to manually install the drivers, because that is seeming what I have to do. I don't know how to work this stuff in OS X. Can someone please help me? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/29315-screen-resolution/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rammjet Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 You need the Callisto drivers: http://omni.starchaser.org/callisto - Be sure to read all of the documents supplied with Callisto including reading the FAQ about QE/CI and the AGPGart (for AGP) drivers: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=20139 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/29315-screen-resolution/#findComment-201655 Share on other sites More sharing options...
nikotine Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 Would this solution of Callisto plus AGPGart work for a x1300 AGP 8x card also. Or is it specific to the 9600?
