This is the second version of my ATI Radeon 9700 driver patcher. 1. Extract the archive. 2. sudo ./patch9700.sh HI LO (where HI is the high byte in hex of your device id and LO is the low byte, e.g.: ./patch9700.sh 5e 4b if your device id is 0x5e4b) 3. manually edit the /System/Library/Extensions/ATIRadeon9700.kext/Content/MacOS/Info.plist. Replace 5B60 with your device id Example: ... <key>IOPCIMatch</key> <string>0x4E441002 0x41441002 0x4E481002 0x41481002 0x41501002 0x4E501002 0x41521002 0x4E541002 0x4A481002 0x4A491002 0x4A4A1002 0x4A4B1002 0x4A4C1002 0x4A4D1002 0x4A4E1002 *0x5E4B1002* 0x5B621002 0x3E501002 0x4E561002 0x5B641002 0x3E541002</string> ... The asterisk (*) is only meant to emphasize the change, do not enter them. For edit /System/Library/Extensions/ATIRadeon9700.kext/Contents/Info.plist use: In a Terminal sudo nano -w /System/Library/Extensions/ATIRadeon9700.kext/Contents/Info.plist then Ctrl + O to save the changes AND Ctrl + X to Exit 4. Remove kextcache sudo rm /System/Library/Extensions.kextcache kextcache -k /System/Library/Extensions 5. put your desire Res at "com.apple.Boot.plist" is not posible select at System Preferences 6. Repair disk permissions with Disk Utility 7. Finally reboot Some mouse artifacts are reported. I am working on resolving the problem. NOTE: this patch is very experimental, I only released it because of heavy mail traffic. I you are not an experienced user please wait for a better version. --koverg-- But you need the file: patch9700.sh How I can send you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aquanutz Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 I've used this patch up until 10.4.8 and it does NOT eliminate the tearing. It is still there. I do not believe that glopez fully understood your question. However, it is better than nothing so if you aren't running it, it suggest you do unless you have a more supported card laying around.
