Its seems nobody is replying to any post regarding this graphic card ATI 5650.
If someone can share or just confirm whether there is a solution or something we could do to make this thing work in OSX! its imposible that there is no solution to this.

IF someone could guide me on how to obtain the kext or manually editing whatever or do i need an ioreg dump, or bios dump. to get this to work. I will help the others who are having this problem.Please Just reply anything so we can start somewhere. Ive been trying for almost a year now!! still no support for this card. ive successfully installed a 100% fully working 64 bit hackintosh for both my i7 920 ati 5970 and asus g51.

Please help us 5650 users! Thank you very much!! :banghead:
 
Some guy at InsanelyMac found out how to get it working. Don't know if it's real or not.

Apparently he edited the Info.plist of the ATI5000Controller kext with the 5650m's ATIFB, whatever that is.

He was using 10.6.4 retail Snow Leopard.

Here's a google translated version of the site with the instructions:

Bad thing is, can't view attachments. Gotta register. : (

Anybody Chinese to figure out how to register for that board?

EDIT:
It's real! Screenshots posted at InsanelyMac.

I've got Inspiron 15R ALU with ati 5650 (N5010)... I could try it but I don't know exactly how :p
 
Guys, I would like to try the method with my 5650M ( oredy reinstall MAC tons of times so one more time worth it :D ) but to me, the link seem got broken, I can't access that page, please confirm me the link above is alive or could you send me the content of that page please ? Thank in advance and best regards :).

They're not there yet, but things are starting to move fast, the Chinese method is actualy derived from Kabyl's post http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=231768 , i think it's only a matter of time now. Plus Netkas http://netkas.org/ and team are doing a great job with Lion so far so be patient.
