Bronya Posted April 4, 2008 Author Share Posted April 4, 2008 1) I believe, of those three packages, the first one is supposd to say X1950PRO not GT (7280 is the Pro model). 2) Bronya, what did you change in this release for 7280 for 10.5.2 9c7010 compared to the driver for 9c31? I thought I had 9c31, but I just looked and System Profiler says I have 9c7010. I am using your old 9c31 driver though---should I update? 3) People! For new installs, make sure you do the Leopard Graphics Update BEFORE installing Bronya's driver packages. I crashed my rig twice by installing the driver first. Can't just re-install the driver either. Idk how to fix it, but it works fine when you do the Leopard Graphics Update BEFORE this driver. You should update. 1) update graphics from apple.com 2) install my patched driver ! 3) reboot ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

palemonkey Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Bronya. I am installing Zephyroth Leopard AMD 10.5.2 Rev.2. Do I select 1950 drivers from there? or select nothing and then install your drivers? Also.... How do I install these? Copy to /system/library/extensions/ and then apply permissions? Is that correct?

intox_neb Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Hi Running leopard 10.5.2, have installed Bronya driver for my PowerColor x1950 pro, but get "quartz extreme: not supported". Have installed the graphics update from apple. Any pointers on how to enable quartz extreme? Use the kext.b7 helper to install, do I need to manually install? If so, how? BTW: Installed the "wrong ID" driver for my 10.5.2 system first, not sure if this is to be removed first or not, don't know how either. Installed the correct ID driver without uninstalling the old "wrong ID" driver first, no quartz. The video card: PowerColor ATI Radeon x1950 Pro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thefinalprophecy Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Yeah, when you install Bronya's driver BEFORE the Leopard Graphics Update, it seems to break QE/CI. Do you have all the current updates from Apple right now? If so, check under "software" in About This Mac and see what build number of OS X 10.5.2 you're running. I believe 9C31 is the original one but it should have updated to 9c7010. I would say just install Bronya's 9c7010 package over the other one and see what happens. I believe the only change in kexts is natit anyway--the other files don't appear to have changed. If you have kexthelper, just use that and don't worry about manual install because it will set permissions/clear kextcache for you. You may have to reinstall, but I don't know. I'm considering dropping this video card and going with Nvidia. I still have some minor mouse tearing with this card no matter what I do and I can't get rid of it. At least I think it's the card and not some other hardware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

intox_neb Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Well tried everything, but can't get Quartz Extreme. Have actually never had this, so really don't know how my hackintosh would look with this enabled, but guessing it's impressive, cause it's not without Seems like me installing Bronyas drivers before the graphics update might be the issue. Unless someone can come up with a good idea on how to fix it, I guess a reinstall is the only option (of course, don't wanna do this, cause took me like two days to get it installed, and don't remember half of what I did Btw: It is the graphics card that either support/not support quartz, and the screen has nothing to do with this. Cause the Quartz extreme not supported is listed under my display (Samsung 22" lcd) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

intox_neb Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 Install 10.5.1 cleanInstall 10.5.1 drivers Update to 10.5.2 Update to 10.5.2 Graphics Update Install 10.5.2 9C7010 Drivers Did just this now, got no resolution options or Quartz at the 10.5.1 or 10.5.2 driver install. At my previous install I was at least able to change my resolution. Only thing I did different was that I in my previous install removed a lot of ATI stuff just after install, before the restart (had to, or it would not boot in normal mode). This time I just booted in safe mode (-x) and installed the 10.5.1 drivers, but no resolution or quartz at restart. Any ideas on what to do? BTW: Have a PowerColor X1950 Pro, it doesn't say X1950 GT(!) Pro, as the topic of this thread says (and the 10.5.1 driver). Is there a difference between the GT Pro version and just the PRO version that could cause these problems? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trauma! Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 I've got the same problem here !!! I've seted up my bios to repost video after S3 resume in order to fix it, but at wake up the computer stop on a blue screen I'm gonna try another AppleACPIplatform.kext to see if it's changing something...

intox_neb Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 FINALLY!!!! Got Quartz Extreme and CI enabled on my X1950 PRO!!!

Trauma! Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 Ok i've tested with 9.2.2 vanilla and patched kernel, with old and vanilla acpiplatform, with natit, with x1950 pro efi string.... It didnt resolve my problems. 9.2.2 + efi string = only a little part off the screen working at wake up. 9.2.2 patched + efi string = the same 9.2.2 + natit + old acpiplaform version 1.0.3 = a screen full of strange charachters 9.2.2 + natit + acpiplatform version 1.2.1 vanilla = blue screen at wake up.

Alex HQuest Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 9.2.2 + efi string = only a little part off the screen working at wake up. This happens to me with 10.5.1 and Bronya's driver -- no EFI strings, although I got EFI_v8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
