domino Posted February 20, 2006 Share Posted February 20, 2006 try changing from 32bit to 24bit colors. not really a solution but is decreases the mouse artifacts.

blkblt Posted February 20, 2006 Share Posted February 20, 2006 I think the artifacts reported on real Intel Macs are not the same as the ones we see. Ours are much worse. I read a report of someone who owned them and he wasn't able to reproduce the ones we see. /blkblt Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/9262-1044-ati-drivers/#findComment-58673 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hagar Posted February 20, 2006 Share Posted February 20, 2006 Apparently the tearing is drastically reduced by disabling beam sync & enabling Quartz 2d Extreme.. have you tried this?

eskyrin Posted February 20, 2006 Share Posted February 20, 2006 Hi All, this is my first post but after 2 days I finally got osx86 working on my Athlon 64 3000+ Still having problems with the network under native and although the graphics are fast I am not sure if the correct drivers are being used. My xbanch score was 64. Could anybody tell me if there is more I can do? I have a 9800pro ati and k8m800 chipset. Any advice welcome and many thanks for all the hardwork.

Danman Posted February 20, 2006 Share Posted February 20, 2006 Its an interesting point about the cursorshadow being missing, maybe its the rendering of the mouse thats got the bug and not the ati drivers. Anyone know how the cursor is driven and how to enable/disable features like cursorshadow?

NemesysSRT Posted February 20, 2006 Share Posted February 20, 2006 Slightly off topic, but I didn't want to start a new ATI thread . . . Will an x800 be supported in a 10.4.4 install?

Danman Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 Does anyone have ATINDRV.kext loaded at boot up? (open terminal and type kextstat to fid out) The real Intel iMac does so I'm thinking the tearing maybe linked to that. you can kextload it and it says its loaded, but if you kextload -v it gives error which *I think* is why is doesn't load at boot up.

There is something....like a pixel width black "shadow" 10 times thinner than the one of a window – is that it? :pirate2: If so, sorry then – I simply did not notice it before.
