u1m2 Posted April 20, 2007 Share Posted April 20, 2007 FireGL X1 is the openGL variant of the Radeon 9700 (both R300 core) so you might be better off searching for how to get a radeon 9700 up and running while using your own device id instead of the Radeon 9700's where necessary.

u1m2 Posted April 21, 2007 Share Posted April 21, 2007 Force a screen resolution on startup If you want to force Mac OS X to start with a certain screen resolution: you have to add a new key and string line to your com.apple.boot.plist. <key>Graphics Mode</key> </string>1024x768x32@60</string> Where 1024x768 is the resolution you want, x32 is the color depth you want, and if you have VESA 3.0 graphics, @60 the color depth you want. from http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=14496 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
