Guest Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 Thanks Giorgio, i've followed your instructions and it worked. Just one thing...once i added my device id to the the IOPCIMatch, i saved it, and then the reboots takes over 2minutes ( everytime now ), i get a flaky screen, and after 2minutes i'm on my desktop...any ideas why this happen? Should i be reinstalling from scrach without selected any video driver? Any sugestions are welcome! Thanks again Regards I have no ideas. But maybe reinstalling without select any video driver can solve the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After reboot I have black screen, when the OS starts Ideneb. 10.5.5. Really can't understand why.....I don't isntalled any programms or drivers or ... just nothing when I installed the Os but have the same divice 94c3.Can't get workin' resolution... @lastExile Is there a chance to run normal Ati Radeon Pro 2400 Pcie 94c3 like the old packege installer on Ideneb 10.5.5?

CHeers ! Have you made right steps? I have installed 3 video cards 94c3 on 3 sistems with iDeneb 1.3 without problems: during installation I haven't select any video kext. There is another method to obtain QE/CI with HD 2400Pro (94c3) and HD 2400XT (94c1) in Leopard 10.5.5, is the method og Demone (I have tested this method with 2 HD 2400XT and 3 HD 2400Pro and iDeneb 1.3): this method works too with HD 2600Pro and HD 2600XT DDR3. 1) Install latest drivers package from http://nvinstaller.com (9f23 as of now) 2) Open EFIStudio and press "Device Path" icon, write "display" into the first textbox and press "Get Path" button, press "To Clipboard" button, close window 3) Still inside EFIStudio select ATI HD2400 (should be selected as its the first of the list), press "Add Device" the Editor appears 4) In the editor replace /plist/dict/key node value (default value is PciRoot(0x0.......) with the one you have in the clipboard (just select old value and paste it over): if the 2 values are equal skip this step 5) Still inside the editor replace every "Iago" string occurrence (you could find other kind of framebuffers like "Lamna") with "Megalodon" string and every "IagoParent" string with "MegalodonParent" string 6) Still inside the editor press "write to com.apple.boot.plist" button to insert the EFI string in the system 7) Change ATIRadeonX2000.kext to include HD 2400 XT Prod.ID and Ven.ID (not directly, put the kext on Desktop, change device id, save it and install with kexthelper) 8) Fix permissions with disk utility 9) Reboot with flags -v -f CI/QE should now be enabled Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vonkolberg Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 Well after much frustration this post has been a life saver! Finally QE/CI are working with my Visiontek ATI HD 2600 pro 512MB. I started with a eVGA nvidia 9800XT 512 MB that I spent a multitude of hours on and could not get QE/CI working. I sent the board back and got the ATI. Here is what worked. First installed: ATIRadeonX2000 Leopard.pkg http://www.mediafire.com/?vjg1jwiv2ni This found everything about the board but no QE/CI. Second: found this thread and installed "old downloads" ATI Radeon HD 2600pro PciE Device ID: 9589 ATI Radeon HD 2600Pro Pcie 10.5.x Did not work. Third: I downloaded. Update: try pkg for 2600 Pro & XT, 3850 & 3870 and maybe ( 2400 series ) also 3650 users try this Report back http://tinyurl.com/3qcg8g : ATI Radeon HD - 10.5.x - 10.5.5 kexts And it works!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! imovie works!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jetlink Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 Please help me if you can. I followed the advice on page 53 of this thread to install my ATI Radeon HD 2400 PRO. I added the device ID to ati2000xt.kext file but I still have no QE. It shows that QE is supported now whereas before I entered the device ID it showed not supported.

bastop Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 I had realized that soon... A working driver would be a great step for this notebook! Thanks! Is there a connection between the not working graphic driver and 1. A Studio15 getting very, very warm. 2. Not working sleep ? Which of those facts could be solved right away? If there are solutions, could you give me a link to the posts? I already have spend a long time to find information about those, without success... Thanks a lot I have a Dell Studio 1535.
