ATI Mobility X1900 almost working!

Hello,

I tried to get this card working but I don't understand enough in how ATI cards work.

 

I tried the kexts for that post

I changed the dev ids in ATIinject.kext ATIRadeonX1000GAdriver.bundle as told by borisbadenov.

I also put my EDID in ATIinject.kext.

 

And all I get is a strangly splited screen :

This is the best result I got for the moment. I can change resolution thou.

 

I tried Sphyrna and Alopias Framebuffer, but always got black screen. Wormy seems to be the one.

I tried Natit and ATYinject but got black screen too.

 

When I put my devid in ATIRadeonX1000.kext, I get KP.

 

The dev and vendor id are 7284 1002

I don't want to flash the card to change because I need to use Windows too.

Can someone help me please ?

 

Thanks in advance

There is some progress, I get QE/CI enabled, no more KP with ATIRadeonX1000.kext.

But screen still splited.

 

I had to midify some kexts with an hex editor to change devid to 7284.

 

I haven't tried dual screen yet.

Maybe some values in ATIinject are wrong. File is attached.

 

I attached the modified kexts if it can help.

Hi lebidou,

 

Good work on the mobility X1900! I have the same card and I have not had any success getting QE/CI working on my Amilo Xi 1554. Please have you made more progress since then? A lot of people are counting on you, me for one!

Hello,

Sorry but I had to worry for somthing else during some months. But I'm back again, with news for you:

I gave a try to the latest ATILead. And the screen isn't streched no more, and I still have resolution changing.

 

But, I can't have 32bits color depth above 1024x640 resolution and System Profiler shows only 4 Mo of VRAM.

If I try 1280x800 (which is my native resolution) then only thousands of color is available and I get a lot of glitches (I'll post pics later)

 

I'm gonna talk to Slice (who's developping ATILead and an alternative Framebuffer) to see if he knows more about these problems.
