“I've tried the TV out kext but I don't think it did anything or else I don't understand how to activate the svideo port in os x on my video card... as for the divx video I don't have one that I can test out”

“Works perfectly thanx alot I have QE/CI and screen resolution... I didn't try out your TV output kext yet until I make a backup of my install”

“Awesome thanx. I tried the natit option and nothing but a SUPER SLOW operating system and no QE/CI lol”

“i'm running 256mb vram. ok so I get QE/CI by simply adding my id to the x1000 kext but I still can't change resolutions and what not so i dunno… i'm going to keep the edited kext but also going to try a driver cause 1024x768 is an ugly reso…”

“Thanx I just wasn't 100% sure what options to choose but by the looks of I'm not 100% sure whats causing my Kernal Panic when i boot i seen to get an ebios error but i should be able to just simple check off the iPC/Voodoo Kernel/Chipset/Et…”

“Hey could you help me out, I'm using the same graphics card as you silent... but i can't anything working CI/QE/Resolutions if you could help me out with what you did that would be great cause i've installed the graphics driver from the dvd…”

“Found out the problem… my mouse was F***ed up so I simply took it back and got a new one all is good… thread ended”

“so i've determined what the problem is with my updates… my damn video kexts… I'm gonna have to try the manual edit, but that never seems to work for me !@#$ I knew it wouldn't just go smoothly. I have no idea why the kexts I use don't work …”

“Ok so get this... I install the 10.5.3.pkg and it does the whole auto restart thing again so I boot into safe mode and install the voodoo kernel and it works? I dunno I'm confused about it, lol”

“Alright I'll give it a try. I was thinking if I just install the OS without any of my kexts I add after install and attempt the update I'll see what happens”

“ok so when I update the process completes 100% without sny errors or stopages it's after I do the restart that it cripples the system; I've done the 10.5.3 update with and without the voodoo kernel installed. ok so after I update the system…”

“ya they were patched only thing is it crippled the system. I would get the desktop to show but I couldn't do anything just the pointer would move?”

“Ya I dunno y it wasn't patching the cpuid's meh… the AMD patcher seems to do the trick gonna try 10.5.3 now”

“I am assuming the following is not good… thats from the log file from the ASU after i select modify only on a update. Like i'm doing everything correctly and I just tried it on a fresh install 14:46:28 MacOSXUpd10.5.3.pkg extracted. 14:46:2…”

“Would you recommend updating to the voodoo kernel first? just so i can confirm I'm about to do the right steps: I simply download the updates right from the apple website Then I extract the .pkg files out of the .dmg files I get from the we…”

“Ok so the dvd boots but right after the apple screen shows up it crashes. something about SAM”

“I have coupled this thread with another one I beleive appears to be a common issue... please go here instead: Mouse Problems (not slow or choppy) Other Issues”

“Nope nothing is turned on there also and also when in foriefox or safari and i go click the address bar so i can go to previous webpages it doesn't drop down I see it briefly then it goes away before I can do anything”

“ok thanx i'll try that”

“I'll give it a try when I wake up...”

“anyone able to help ?”

“THANK YOU REALTEK so the drivers from the manufacturer resolved my issue”

“Prefect and easily explain too thanx”

“Anyone have any updates on this hardware”
