Works in 32/64 Bits mode. Hi, I'm using x1950 Pro (7280), and I dunno how to use the Chamaleon approach, but I managed to have 10.6.7 With QE/CI But only 1024x768 Resolution. The Foxman drivers didn't work with my setup, or require [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url], or something else. I tried updating Chamaleon, and enabling the Graphics Enabler, and it seems to freeze the screen on boot, so I cannot work beyond that. My steps: 1. Install SnowOSX Universal 10.6 2. Install MacOS 10.6.7 Combo Update 3. Install Zahary's drivers for 10.6.5 as in http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php...00#entry1614287 Now I'm trying to get full resolution using either EVOEnabler (When I find out how) or any other suggestion from you guys. I'm just trying to keep this as simple as I can. Luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Works in 32/64 Bits mode. I need some help on this. As far as I can see, after installing this package, on my machine it freezes the screen on the rolling-star Apple logo on startup, but the OSX doesn't hang or freeze at all. I know this because I see the hard drive activity. Even more, I managed to log in to my user account blindly, so I cannot see anything on screen. Is this because some Power Management setting I don't know how to turn off? Could Anybody help me on this?? I'm running a 1950 pro (7280) on 10.6.7 using only SnowOSX Universal 10.6 and the Combo Update. What I have so far, as I put in a previous post, is 10.6.7 QE/CI OK, BUT 1024x768 Stuck. Thkx...

Max_NL Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 Everything broke with 10.6.8. Did somebody get it working again? Trying but untill now no success... :-( Update: if I use kexutil then it says that __vtable ZTV29R520 Powerplaymanager is malformed. The kext ATI1900Controller.kext is not loaded.

THFC13 Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 Anyone managed to get working on 10.6.8? Was working fine on previous and I used the combo update to 10.6.8 and it has gone completely. Boots up (albeit I need to keep inserting GraphicsEnabler=no at boot!), btu I cannot get the machine ti recognise the 1950 (Pro). Also, very annoyingly, I can only see a little over half of my screen - top one-third is grey (or contains writing if booted -v, and the bottom two thirds, the top part of the actual OS). Any ideas or comments on above would be very much appreciate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VooD Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Do you have a link for that? I'd like to see what you're talking about. I have my x1950 Pro working in 10.6.6 with the modded kexts in this thread, but I use evoenabler instead since it supports 64 bits. The problem is I get the power cable not connected message for a while each time I boot. The power cable registry key is set in evoenabler plist, but I don't know why is not working. Using io registry explore I can see it's using value 1 in one monitor head, and 0 in the other one, maybe that's the reason. Any idea? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huski Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 Lion Support "I'm shark! I'm shark! …" - Alopias First of all I'm sorry that I'm too late. I dont understand why no one post this before in June. Well finally, it's time for Alopias. Step one: If you can boot with any resolution it would be enough at this point. If not: just use attached bootloader (I've just compiled Azimutz chameleon synched with trunk r1764) You have to edit boot.plist, put dsdt, smbios, themes to Extra and so on as usual do… Also I assume you have Os Lion installed already. Step two: Get resolution. You may have resolution work, but anyway just do this simple step. In ATI1900Controller.kext/Content/Info.plist find IONameMatch and replace value with your Id (7280). You can do this in textmate, nano etc. Reboot with ignoring caches just for sure (UseKernelCache=No - type before booting) Step three: Get QE/CI acceleration. Even simpler then previous - replace ATIRadeonX1000.kext with patched one. And don't forget fix the owner of file. sudo su [Enter] Password. chown -R 0:0 /System/Library/Extensions/ATIRadeonX1000.kext Reboot ignoring caches. Dont combine and mixup, only step by step) Done! After each system update or if you did something or you are stuck: delete ATIRadeonX1000.kext and ATI1900Controller.kext (or replace with originals) and repeat step 2 and 3. Tested on 10.7.0 and 10.7.2. Want to say hello to PiErOF81 Redownload, first version was broken.

Sandokan7100 Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Should I set AtiConfig=Alopias for ATI-x1950(id=7280) in Lion?? In SnowLeo the framebuffer used is "Prionace" and not "Alopias"... Anyway, it does NOT work for me on Lion 10.7.2 tested in both 32 and 64-bit Using the above instructions by Huski I see the same behaviour as documented by some else in the past, that is: "the system will show the grey apple screen with the throbber. At the time when the GUI (desktop/login-window) is suppose to load, the screen flickers as the system attempts to load that, then it falls back to the grey apple screen again. This repeats indefinitely. When using "-v" (verbose boot), the screen will clear to black, showing only the text-cursor (white block) at the top left of the screen. The GUI mouse pointer will show momentarily (while the text-cursor disappears), then the mouse pointer disappears and the text-cursor shows. Again repeating indefinitely. I can't login once this happens." The strange thing is that same videocard (ATI x1950Pro, id=7280) with same hardware (Asus P5N-E SLI / Intel Core2 Duo E6600) will work perfectly in SnowLeo 32-bit (10.6.7) with QE/CI enabled! (Prionace framebuffer as said..) Huski, which is the exact set of ATI kexts needed for your patch? I've currently removed any ATI kexts from S/L/E so I'm running in VESA 1400x1050 with no acceleration Thanks, S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huski Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Should I set AtiConfig=Alopias for ATI-x1950(id=7280) in Lion?? Nope. Dont set AtiConfig at all. Read updated instructions. Huski, which is the exact set of ATI kexts needed for your patch? ATIRadeonX1000.kext for replacing and ATI1900Controller.kext for editing. Other ATI kext is unchanged but must be present.(ATISupport, ...) Verify every step if you stuck just start over. 1) Boot with any resolution. Verify. 2) Resolution. Verify. 3) Qe/Ci. Done!

JeffDC Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 I am working in setting up my grand daughters Hackintosh. I have installed Niresh's 10.7.2, and was able to safe boot into OS X just fine, and I removed all video drivers that I could recognize from Sys../Lib/Extensions and then used the Kext utility to repair the permissions. I was then able to boot in regular mode. I have an X1950 512 MB PCIE card. I have no idea what the ID is for the card. I have since modified the Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.boot.plist, adding the following lines: <key>GraphicsEnabler</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>Graphics Mode</key> <string>1280x1024x32</string> Hoping that this would allow me to at least have a higher resolution. It did not work. I see Huskie's kext's and instructions, but do not clearly understand how to modify his files to fit my card (ID), and then how to install the kexts, other then copy to the Sys../Lib/Extensions directory and then run Kext Utility. I see a number of you seem to have it working and understand the process. I feel a little dense after reading various instructions all over the internet, and still no luck. Any help would really be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arsis Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Thx Huski, all works just perfect on my Powercolor x1950GT 256Mb (0x72881002) 1. Install Lion 10.7.2 IATKOS, (in video drivers section didn't select anything) 2. In Huski's kexts add my device id (0x72881002) 3. Replace original kexts in S/L/E with patched ones and add Evoenabler for my card 4. Repair permissions with Kext Utility 5. Reboot 6. ... 7.

ariaria Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 I followed those steps and seems to work. I have 1920x1080 resolution working Now when you turn the pc shows me the following. uh, i'm using X1950XTX (dev-id=7240), on Snow Leopard 10.6.2, using natit/evoenabler, and ended up with power cable message just like you. However resolution detected and my card identified correctly, but QE/CI not working, any solutions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
