To fix the ATIRadeon9700.kext installation error, go to Terminal and type:

cd /System/Library
sudo rm -rf Extensions.mkext Extensions.kextcache
( -- give your password --)

cd Extensions
sudo chmod -R 755 ATIRadeon9700.kext
sudo chown -R root:wheel ATIRadeon9700.kext

Then reboot.

oh I kno that, after this sistem crush... Its like in disk utilities

If Disk Utilities would do the job, I would have recommended it. Instead, Disk Utility doesn't repair permissions on kexts properly. You need to do it manually like I typed.

IS THIS INSTRUCTION RIGHT?????

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--

 

 

I need to raplace with my id 0x5E4B1002???? or 0x5B621002?????
