InfiniteMac OSx86 - How can I develop Hackintosh Driver? for example ATI IGP and SB.

InfiniteMac OSx86 (http://infinitemac.com/forum.php)

- - How can I develop Hackintosh Driver? for example ATI IGP and SB. (http://infinitemac.com/showthread.php?t=1480)

Hmm, there's a DVI problem with the HD 2400 driver. And I tried that one (and put the device ID where instructed) and got no picture, even in VGA. :(
Maybe it can be edited to work. *crosses fingers*
EDIT: The "Radeon HD for AMD" package also contains a 2400 driver and I haven't tried it yet. I'll try tweaking the device IDs within that package and let you know what I get out of it. Wish me luck.

To those posting in this thread:

please post your system specs in your account signature so we can all see what is being used to test. Thanks.

OK, specs below...
EDIT: Oye vey! I just read that the HD 3200 is actually *much* closer to the 3600 than the 2400.

I've tried using the kexts for the 2400, on the HD3200 without succes.

What's about the open source Linux driver from ATi?

I dont have time to look at but I will look at also Freebsd driver and other linux drivers.

I have the same IGP in my HP dv7-1130us, chipset is rs780m (will post a link w/ full specs later..). I am also a developer and work as a PC/mac tech. I can be of assistance in beta testing for sure, and hopefully w/the coding as well. I am new to the osx86 scene but have been spending alot of time playing w/kext's, so far w/little success but a I am learning a lot. Have been running Kalyway for about a week or so but will be hopefully switching over to Zephyroth's release soon enough. Let me know how I can be of assistance.

I am limited in the amount of time I can devote to this project because of my work schedule, but I am very eager to get all the hardware working from this chipset/IGP asap.

Any word on how this is going? I'm going to end up needing a new video card soon. 4:3 on 16:9 monitor=me no likey. I'm hanging on to a thread of hope though.

Hey

Adding the following lines to:

/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.Boot.plist

<key>Graphics Mode</key>
<string>1600x1200x32</string>

Should give you a higher resolution and not just the 1024x768 res. Try with a widescreen res..

Works for me.

I would download DPCI Manager here: http://duddie.kazzuya.com/proj/DPCIManager_01.zip This tool allows you to find the Vendor & Device IDs for devices.

It will show you something like this:

For example the numbers on the left in the first column are the Vendor IDs and the numbers on the right in the first column are the Device ID. Find your wireless card's vendor & device IDs
