As I said, it pertains to a 5770 but maybe something in it fro 6780

Also that is a desktop pic of another user over at insanelymac that jpa posted. It is one of the ATI threads, I think 5XXX/6XXX one in graphics. I do not remember but I remeber seeing the user post that.

Maybe go to quote his post and see the photo link goes?

Hi folks,

I know I've posted this elsewhere, but I'm running wireless on 64 bit with
the ASUS USB-N10 wireless adapter (tiny unit around 3 cm long and not very obtrusive).

To quote from my previous post: "In the past, I'd used the recommended drivers from ASUS but no luck, particularly with Snow Leopard. HOWEVER, tonight, I gave it another go and did some surfing. It was this site:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1461271
that prompted me to try and download the REALTEK drivers for 10.6 (as I'm running 10.6.7 VERY smoothly ). I found a valid download site here:
http://www.opendrivers.com/categorycomp ... page4.html
(navigate your way carefully through all the ad @#$!)
The driver is
Realtek RTL8192SU Wireless Driver 1079 Mac OS X 10.6
(this is the latest build, 1079).
Well, popped it in my HackPro and voilé! I'm on the network! "

Hope this helps.

Best wishes

Eco

PS. Great stuff JPA. Thanks.

GIGABYTE GV-R687OC-1GD Radeon HD 6870 problematic....

Currently running 10.6.8 (64bit), Chimera 1.4.1 r877...

GraphicsEnabler=No, dual DVIs, ATI Radeon NI40 detected, Ableton Live 8.2.2 *CRASH* as well as Geekbench, DVD player...

GraphicsEnabler=Yes, single DVI, AMD Radeon HD 6870 Series detected, Ableton Live 8.2.2, works/loads perfectly.

The GraphicsEnabler=No looked like it was working perfectly- it's a framebuffer thing I believe- and the ATI Radeon HD NI40 is Apple's injection from their kexts- so it's not injecting info from Chimera as 6870. It's purely a cosmetic issue- as you can see you have full output functionality in the 2nd pic. So what's the issue?

After reading Tony's comment, I thought, yeah who cares... cosmetic... but when I went to load my favorite audio software, Ableton Live 8.2.2, I could not get the application to install, why?? I decided to reboot with GraphicsEnabler=Yes. I could get Ableton to install and run, however, back to one DVI port...

This has been driving me crazy for the past 20 days! I am thinking of returning the card and getting either a Sapphire 6870 or down grading to a 5770. People seem to be having luck with the Sapphire.

I have not seen/read anyone successful with the GIGABYTE GV-R687OC-1GD Radeon HD 6870. Anyone?? Dual DVIs with AMD Radeon HD 6870 Series detected? Ableton running with AMD Radeon HD 6870 Series detected?

Very nice write up!!!!

Did you ever get this working? I have the same Gigabyte 6870 card with the exact same problem.

It was in Tonymac's Custom build... Thought it was all going to be good!
