X1400 mobility 128 Mb

 

ATIRadeonX1000.kext IOPCIMatch key 0x71451002. working QE/CI, openGL. with mouse stuttering :compress:

 

my experiences with Natit.kext :

 

first of all there were missing some sections for x1400 in my opinion :

1. at <key>0x7145</key>

<dict>

<key>asic</key>

<string>M54</string>

<key>entriesToAddKey</key>

<string>X1400</string>

<key>name</key>

<string>Mobility Radeon X1400</string>

</dict>

 

2. at <key>entriesToAdd</key>

<key>X1400</key>

<dict>

<key>@0,compatible</key>

<string>ATY,Caretta</string>

<key>@0,device_type</key>

<string>display</string>

<key>@0,display-connect-flags</key>

<integer>1024</integer>

<key>@0,name</key>

<string>ATY,Caretta</string>

<key>device_type</key>

<string>ATY,CarettaParent</string>

</dict>

 

if these are missing the default section decides which driver to load (alopias) which does not work.

 

The kext loads if i leave out these lines :

<key>device_type</key>

<string>ATY,CarettaParent</string>

 

the kext loads, but resolution stays 1024x768x32, and nothing to change.

if i put back those lines, it detects two X1400's at boot(Caretta, CarettaParent?), but then it goes blue and finally black screen.

 

As you probably noticed i left out lines with <key>@1,compatible</key>

but I was thinkin i might not need those, I dont care if external works or no, i want to make the internal work. so its probably better if the driver doesnt even detect external or secondary anything.

 

I was playing around with the EDID strings too. I could not read the EDID string with Monitor Asset Manager, but then i found this program Phoenix EDID Designer which reads the EDID from Windows registry. And so I finally got the correct EDID which i was thinkin would probably work. Well not really.

 

<key>@0,EDID</key>

<data>

AP///////wBEk0sAAAAA

AAAPAQOAIRV4Ck3Ak1xR

iCchUFQAAAABAQEBAQEB

AQEBAQEBAQEB6hoAgFAg

DwAIACoAAQAEADJKBBQC

AAAA/gBRVUFOVEFESVNQ

MjYKICAgAIQ=

</data>

<key>@0,compatible</key>

<string>NVDA,NVMac</string>

<key>@0,device_type</key>

<string>display</string>

<key>@0,fboffset</key>

<integer>131072</integer>

<key>@0,name</key>

<string>NVDA,Display-A</string>

 

So, this EDID should be the one for QDS 004B(QUANTADISPLAY) which my Fujitsu Pi1536 is manufactured with.

But, ioreg -l | grep EDID gives empty nuttin :D

By the way i left out the NVMT string cause it would might load incorrect parameters for my monitor (?)

What the hell does NVMT stand for ?! I did not find anything about it.

 

I would like to play around with these keys, but i know less about them.

Here are my newest (frustrating) results, now on 10.4.8 with old kernel and NeoPheus universal installer.

 

- During standard booting I get to the desktop, have full mode selection, but no 32bit color, only a few monitor frequencies, no QE/CI and hanging/no OpenGL.

- Booting in verbose mode (-v) shows my both gfx card devices fully detected, but doesn't open the GUI at all.

 

With no patches I have fast OpenGL, QE/CI, but only 1280x1024 in 60Hz. I have tried to modify the Natit.kext, but's always the same. Is this really a problem of this MSI RX1600XT card? I have no more ideas now. Please help if you can.

 

GreetinX from the Other Side, Naquaada.

this doesn't work at all. my system is a p4 3ghz sse3 1gb ram. im running 10.4.8 with omnis driver on semthex's kernel that came with JaS's dvd. i have a nvidia 6600gt (AGP) with 2xVIEWSONIC VX924's. They are both dvi. when i load the kext and reboot (-v) it says it detects the screens, but when it loads the loginwindow it just keeps both screens black and stays there. is anyone else in this situtation, or can anyone help out? thx in advance

I can report success with my Sapphire X1600XT with DVI working using the NeoPheus uni-installer! It's working perfectly and I can finally use DVI with this card. The thing is, I have to plug in both the analog and the DVI cables. The System boots using Analog, but switches to DVI when OSX comes up! It doesn't work when I only use the DVI cable - strange, but I don't care. Give it a try if you can't get DVI to work.

 

Thanks NeoPheus!

hi,

you are use a 2 cable in same display? and in VGA board?

 

what is a vs. of your kexts, and natit?

 

thanks

 

Yes, I use 2 cables (analog VGA and DVI digital - no adapters or anything) with the same display (it's a NEC 1880SX).

I used Neo's Natit_Uni_1.0 with Jas 10.4.8 (new kernel). The ATI kexts are version 1.4.40.4.

Yes, that's the way I have it. I can disconnect the VGA cable when OSX is fully loaded and running via DVI, but it has to be plugged in during boot.

 

 

Lol I had the same problem with my cube and a Geforce 5200!!

The GF was flashed with a Mac-Rom and a patched Rom brought full support! (So I can use it only with DVI!)

:whistle: Funny thing!

Hello... I've have an ATI X1600 Pro PCIe and at one point this was a compatible card in the 10.4.4 - 10.4.5 days and then seemed to become less compatible with the new Natit and new kernels.

 

When I use Natit I discovered something... I don't care about dual support or even DVI right now I just want native resolution and accel. My system will boot up to a blue screen with a mouse cursor(no taring)... the system does not freeze and will allow me to click icons on the dock(but the dock and GUI is not displayed, but I know it's there because when I click the hard drive accesses and the mouse cursors will change when I move it around.

 

When I went to switch off my system to boot into single user mode to remove natit I noticed the whole desktop showed up for 5 sec because the os started to enter sleep mode when I pushed in my power button. It was a high res desktop and no taring but I could only use it for 5 sec then the system went to sleep. I can't wake up the system for some reason. I think Natit is working but something is proventing it from init. the screen correctly untel the system started to enter sleep.

 

I've tried so many combinations but the only one that worked fully was a JAS 10.4.8 AMD SSE3 only with the 10.4.4 ATI*.kext but this system was not very stable.

 

If I remove natit then I get a desktop at 800x600 but with full QE, CI but there is mouse tairing and I can't switch the res. in System Preferences.

 

EDIT:

 

Ok I got it working fine with the IONdrv .5 and ATINdrv .5 but now I've lost the ability to adjust my system volume but sound still works.

 

 

 

Thank you

I have got it working here....

 

BUT....My Mitsubishi monitor is correctly identified when connected to VGA port, if I switch to DVI using DVI to VGA converter it is not recognised anymore and defaulted to 1024x768.

 

I have another monitor which is Samsung SyncMaster 957MB, this monitor is not recognised anywhere guess it is not fully PnP.....I connected this to DVI-VGA converter together with the Mitshubishi and got cloned image just the same as with Boris method...

 

Since this Samsung monitor does not show up in System Profile, guess I cannot force it to display in extended mode. Maybe X1600xt is not fully supported???

guys, it seems utterly hopeless to get internal screen working on my x1400 mobility laptop. the result is just always the same : black screen and freeze. i cant even give ya any ioreg output..

i tried Natit_auto, with about 20 configurations. now i was trying with atiinject. Wormy, Caretta, and a {censored}load of configs.

i put all every possible fckin keynames, so that this little utility would inject the correct EDID to the correct place, or whatever.

Hey!

I got some serious troubles getting my GeForce 7300 GS to work.

I did a clean install with JaS 10.4.8 Intel SSE3 only DVD, using the semthex kernel. I added Natit.kext using Neo's first Universal installer and it didn't work, as in the System boots up normally but no QE/CI or Resolution switching.

Until now, I think I tried every single version of Natit/Titan and none of them is working.

I even inserted my card's dev id into Geforce/NVDAN40/NVADResman's Info.plist.

Nothing is workling. :D

If I load natit.kext by hand (kextload -v Natit.kext) it just loads up fine, but nothing happens.

Please help me!
