Hi Stefe,
Got (almost, VGA+DVI+HDMI ver, got no HDMI input on monitor to test, DVI2VGA dongle or DSUB only) the same card as yours. How'd you make it work? You have steps starting from completion of OSX installation and 10.6.6 update?


Anyway, here's my sitch...
To all,
When I tried the boot_vga booter above, using stock 10.6.6 kexts, I get corrupted graphics; moving the mouse gets some movement on the display. Tried different combos of these 10.6.6 kexts, when I try to load ATI4600Controller, ATIFramebuffer and ATISupport, (no ATIRadeonX2000), I can get to the desktop, but Profiler shows no kexts loaded. Also loading ATIRadeonX2000 would give an ACPI_SMC_PlatformPlugin::start - wait for service (resource Matching(AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement) timed out error, need to hard reset.

When I try everything above with the flicker file, same thing.

Using Chameleon 2 RC4 PC EFI 10.5, GraphicsEnabler=Y -pci1, tried both 32 and 64 bit modes to no avail. I can currently use on software rendering mode only.

Thanks for reading this long post

EDIT: So apparently, it wasn't crashing, the time out error I was getting was not related. It seems like a GUI is present but not displaying on the correct screen (or framebuffer?). When I press keys, there are sounds playing, as if inside the GUI. It's like using your PC with the monitor turned off. Instead of a GUI, you get a terminal window that you can't type into.

Gonna have to try different ports and -pci combinations, at least the 10.6.6 driver works--shows that the kexts have been loaded.

Question: how many -pci variables do we have? -pci0, -pci1, -pcix???
