drumthrasher109 Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 sudo -s chmod -R 755 /Volumes/osxdisk/System/Library/Extensions/ATIRadeonX200.kext chown -R root:wheel /Volumes/osxdisk/System/Library/Extensions/ATIRadeonX200.kext kextload -t /Volumes/osxdisk/System/Library/Extensions/ATIRadeonX200.kext kextcache -k /system/library/extensions Also, next time you reboot, be sure to boot with a "-f" from your darwin bootloader to ignore previously cached kexts and rebuild your kext caches. This worked for me Do I use the same kext that hasn't been working before? Currently whenever I boot it says that the ATIRadeon2000.kext, ATINDRV.kext, and natit.kext (or whatever they are called) could not be used. Note that I didn't try your instructions yet. I'll do it tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll do it tomorrow. I have same same device Id as you 9589 and was following your posts. I installed Triakis drivers when they came out and didn't know how to add device id, I followed your post of dragging ATIRadeon2000.kext to desktop, edit info.plist drag back to System/Library/Extensions/ATIRadeonX200.kext repair permission, reboot. Didn't work Replaced original ATIRadeon2000.kext Tried Natit.kext from netkas.org and white menu fix from irc.osx86.hu #HDRadeon used nano to add device id, repair permission, reboot. Didn't work saw something about cleaning out kext cache and rebuilding kext files on osx86 scene kextcache -k /system/library/extensions Also, next time you reboot, be sure to boot with a "-f" from your darwin bootloader to ignore previously cached kexts and rebuild your kext caches. This worked for me. I appear to get full CI/QE,rotation change resolution on fly and wake from sleep seems to work now, Toast now works, coverflow in iTunes hope it works for you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drumthrasher109 Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 Nope. Didn't work. I still get the 'ATIx2000.kext' and the 'ATIRNDRV.kext' cannot be used errors upon each boot. EDIT: Well now nothing is working, I'm getting the same exact results as with 10.5.0!!! I don't know what to do! What I did today was install the new netit.kext from netkas.org, repaired permissions, reboot, and bam nothing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sdelano Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 Just using the new Natit from a few posts up worked great for me! Thats all I needed to do to get my MSI card to work Works like a charm!

Donar Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 Is there a good way of getting rid of Triakis? I installed Natit and Triakis and it takes some time before the Desktop comes up, maybe because the two stand each other in the way.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Up to now ATI HD2600 can work via DVI--> external display only and you need using New Natit (20080226 or 20080223 version) from netkas.org and Leopard Graphic Update 1.0 (from Leopard 10.5.2), because it need Natit activate ATY_Lamna.kext (in /System/Library/Frameworks/OpenGL.framework/Contents/PlugIns/ ).

drumthrasher109 Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 This is kind of off-topic, but how do I know if I have the graphics update installed?

bpeugh Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 I get the same issue except for when I load the ATI kexts on the installer which will give me a grey screen. Anyone? I've read whole of the topic but it seems that no one got a problem like mine. I was installing iATKOS 1.02 and my HD2600XT. The OS was installed but after booting and going through the Apple screen, it showed up mess black bricks and white background (NOT black screen). Could anyone help me, plz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bpeugh Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 I have been trying to get this to work but can't seem to. I am using the video card listed in my sig. I am using Kalyway 10.5.1 and partitioning the drive as a whole GUID. After installation I just get a white screen with the black bricks or if I use the ATI kexts I will get a grey screen after the Apple logo window. I can't update to 10.5.2 because I can't see anything and I don't understand how to apple any kexts. If I start in safe mode it dies at the Apple logo window. What should I do?

ViseMoD Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 I have ATI HD2600XT. I use Kalyway 10.5.1. I can't make to my X86 Mac goes to sleep. It works fine thought, but when I press the power button to wake it up, video goes crazy so I can't see nothing except color lines. Can anybody suggest me some solution?

drumthrasher109 Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 If you can boot into safe mode install this.http://www.rapidshare.com/files/101678828/Archive.zip There are 2 installers. 1 is Natit kext installer 2 is a 5 second delay boot plist(you probably don't need this) The Natit kext is GUARANTEED to work.(Well it should, works on my Xpert Vision 2600xt 512m PCI-E) Does this work for a 2600PRO? I heard sometimes they have the same...stuffs (can't find the proper wording). How would I go about getting into safe mode? I read I have to press shift...not sure when to do that.

bpeugh Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 Okay, I got mine to work. I used Rovershack's guide after doing a clean GUID install. This time it went to the bricks screen upon boot and I was able to restart using -x to safe boot. Replacing the kext worked great but everytime I would run the 10.5.2 update I would have to reapply the kext again to get it to work correctly. I am getting a a 3 second blue screen in between the Apple logo screen before it fades into the 10.5.2 screen.to drumthrasher109, I don't know what s going wrong with your card but I would highly suggest you look into purchasing the one that I have in my sig. This is the one that many people have made work so far and it is only $92 from newegg.com.on startup options press f8 then type -x and return at thee prompt. Does this work for a 2600PRO? I heard sometimes they have the same...stuffs (can't find the proper wording).How would I go about getting into safe mode? I read I have to press shift...not sure when to do that.
