[Help request] Installing legacy 12.6 catalyst driver

I have installed xf86-video-ati and lib32-ati-dri packages, system starts, but I need to improve performance of 3D games and some KDE effects.
After installing catalyst package, setting nomodeset for kernel and blacklisting radeon, X isn't starting, probably because one of my graphics card (integrated HD4250) is no longer supported in latest releases. Last version that was working was 12.6 and catalyst owns >12.10 already.
I would try myself, but I must rely on your knowledge, because getting X working back after such failure is painfull to fix, had to do it before .

You have to downgrade to Xorg 1.12 by adding
[xorg112]
Server = http://catalyst.apocalypsus.net/repo/xorg112/$arch
above all other repositories in your /etc/pacman.conf.
Then run pacman -Syuu (double u does the downgrading)
and add the [catalyst-hd234k] repository as described in the wiki.

Need help in installing Snow Leopard without DVD drive

Hi,
I have a White Macbook 2008 model with 2.1 ghz processor and 1 GB Ram. The dvd rom is not working in my machine. It spits out the dvd's 99 out of 100 times.
I need to upgrade from 10.5.8 to 10.6. Apple has sent me a single disk to install snow leopard.
I am not willing to invest in new dvd drive either internal or external. Needed help on ways to install snow leopard please apart from using the dvd option.
I do have a Firewire 400 cable but i do not know anybody anymore who has a mac machine with 400 port.
Hence the cable is also useless and i cannot connect to anyother macbook and do the install using their drive.
Please suggest.
Regards,
Rahul

There are no direct options. Find a friend with a Mac that has a working optical drive. Buy an 8GB USB flash drive. Partition and format it for the Mac then clone the mounted DVD to the flash drive. Take it back to your computer and boot from the flash drive.
Boot Using OPTION key:
1. Restart the computer.
2. Immediately after the chime press and hold down the
"OPTION" key.
3. Release the key when the boot manager appears.
4. Select the disk icon for the flash drive.
5. Click on the arrow button below the icon.

Need help in installing a SATA hard drive with 865pe NEO2

Hello there
I need a help in installing a Sata hard drive ,it is WD 250 GB , my motherboard is 865PE Noe2 , the bios is the latest one
already I got another old hard drive ,not a Sata ,a regular IDE one installed as a master hard drive
I want to install the sata hd as a slave for the IDE hd for now to transfer the files and documents
I already physically installed the Sata hard drive yet the problem is that it was listed in the bios , I followed some of the steps here in the forum mentioned but all what I got is I found it listed as the fourth IDE master , not as the primary IDE slave
in Windows Xp Sp2 it is not listed of course in the windows explorer , but it is there in the device manager
look I am very confused and I tried most of the combinations in the ide configuration in BIOS
what should I do coz I am feeling so bad and stupid ,you can consider me a n00b in this hard drive thing

1st the sata drive cannot be listed as a slave drive to the ide master [key word=ide-can be configured as master OR slave, master IF only 1 hd, master and slave IF 2 hds], on the sata controler you can have master and slave, the ide cable has two connectors for the hds, sata has only 1 hd connector.
are you wanting to install the sata as primary master and move the operating sys to that drive, if so you will need an IMAGING software to move an operating system OR you could do a fresh operating system install to the sata drive then install your programs.

I've installed bootcamp 4.0 on my iMac 27. Everything works superb, but for playing need for speed run or battlefield 3 I need catalyst driver 11.7 or higher. How can I update my graphics? Is there a possibility except waiting for a new bootcamp version?

I've installed bootcamp 4.0 on my iMac 27. Everything works superb, but for playing need for speed run or battlefield 3 I need catalyst driver 11.7 or higher. How can I update my graphics? Is there a possibility except waiting for a new bootcamp version?

But how do you install the drivers if Bootcamp is running interference?
Bottom line, I'ev tried to install three different versions of updated ATI driver sover the last few momnths and on each and every occassion have ended up with the original Bootcamp driver. A number of current games are unplayable on a Mac running Bootcamp as a result.
And if I can't run the software I want, then Bootcamp is as useless as boobs on a bull.

Catalyst driver install issue

Hey!
I have an ATI Mobility radeon HD 5650 and i needed to run openCL on it, so i wanted to install catalyst-utils and the opencl-catalyst, however, i first installed the xf86-video-ati driver, so i tried installed using
pacman -S catalyst-utils
And i got the following output:
[root@guimtr-arch ~]# pacman -S catalyst-utils
resolving dependencies...
looking for inter-conflicts...
:: catalyst-utils and mesa-libgl are in conflict. Remove mesa-libgl? [y/N] y
:: catalyst-utils and xorg-server are in conflict. Remove xorg-server? [y/N] y
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: catalyst-utils: requires xorg-server
:: ati-dri: requires mesa-libgl=9.1.1
:: gdm: requires xorg-server
:: glamor-egl: requires mesa-libgl
:: intel-dri: requires mesa-libgl=9.1.1
:: nouveau-dri: requires mesa-libgl=9.1.1
So the problem is that catalyst-utils conflicts with xorg-server, but then if say yes i want to remove, it says it needs it for catalyst-utils
Thanks in advance

Help! Installing updates an error occurred now my MacBook Pro will not restart. "Unable to find driver for this platform"

Help! Installing updates an error occurred now my MacBook Pro will not restart. "Unable to find driver for this platform"

Did you try more than once? If so:
Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks without erasing drive
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Mountain Lion or Mavericks
OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
OS X Mountain Lion- Reinstall OS X
OS X Lion- Reinstall Mac OS X
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet
if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

Desktop Environment Broke after Catalyst Driver Install

Hello everyone,
I recently installed the catalyst drivers on my system using pacman. I have multiple desktop environments installed.
When I rebooted after the install, I get access to my GUI welcome screen, which allows me to select the DE environments. I have several including Gnome and Gnome 2D.
When I try to load Gnome it says "Failed to load session "gnome"", the 2D version attempts to load and gives an "oh no! Something broke" error.
I assume this is due to changes in my xorg after installing the catalyst driver? I know this is a DE not direct arch question, please let me know! I am desperate.

The problem seems to be that there is an nvlink driver coming from somewhere. You can try removing the opencl-nvidia package if it is not required by anything.
Another possibility, as mentioned in the wiki, is that you did not comment out DRI entries in the xconfig.
I'm not quite sure what these DRI entries look like. What would be commented out? This is my xorg.conf:

HT4904 Help. I have an older 20 inch iMac and had Lion running on it but the internal hard drive died. I'm trying to install Lion on an external drive but it doesn't look like Lion Recovery is supported. I have Leopard installed but am stuck.

Hello,
My 20inch iMac's internal drive died and I'm trying to re-install Lion on an external drive. If I could get the Lion DMG file I think I'd be all set but am not sure how to do this. It doesn't look like the Lion Recovery feature is supported in my older iMac. And I have Leopard installed on the external drive but there's no AppStore to download the Lion DMG file.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
-Lee

Without a bootable backup/clone or a Time Machine backup of your previous Snow Leopard installation or a saved copy of Lion's install app, you'll have to upgrade your Leopard volume to Snow Leopard (10.6.6+) so you can waste another hour or more DLing the Lion thing again.

Catalyst driver problem: Low resolution

Hey
I just installed the catalyst driver for my Mobility Radeon HD 3650, I'd been using the radeonhd driver before. With the radeonhd driver, i could use 1680x1050 which is the maximal resolution for my monitor but with catalyst, the highest I can use is 1280x800. My login screen has good resolution, but once im logged in it drops back to 1280x800. Anyone know what I could try? I searched the forums but couldn't really find anything.
I'm running arch i868 on a Thinkpad T500.
Thanks

Catalyst driver & aur question

Hi there!
First I must say i'm totaly new in arch world. I have ATI Radeon HD3430 graphics card and want to install catalyst driver (moved from official repos to aur) but have had no luck so far. I red wiki but i just cant figure out how to install that. Can i get some help about it? Tnx in advance!
Edit: For now i have open source ati driver installed.

Yes, you will have to remove xf86-video-ati and also probably libgl, and possibly other packages that conflict with the catalyst driver and catalyst-utils packages. I'm not sure if there's a more elegent way to do this, but I recently switched from the Catalyst driver to the ATI driver and I did:
pacman -Rsc catalyst catalyst-utils
which uninstalled something like 10gigs worth of programs, did
pacman -S xorg xf86-video-ati
then reinstalled all my other old programs, just don't clean you're pacman cache before re-installing or you'll be downloading stuff forever.
