patje · Feb 12, 2003, 09:34 AM

ok boys and girls,

my modded drivers are finnished! --> They work for me , they should work for you!

Support for:
Mobility Fire GL 9000
Mobility Radeon 9000
Radeon Mobility
Radeon Mobility 7500 --> tested and works for me
Radeon Mobility 7500 GL
IGP 340M --> tested and works for Msix
IGP 320M --> added

and ofcourse all the other cards in the 3.1's

File is about 5 Megs,

You can fetch them here --> --> Patje's drivers

BTW! If completely forgot to thank ATI! MR. Catalyst maker, you should deserve the credits!
Thanx for working on newer drivers and improving them. --> Great Job!!

greetzz and Good Luck

Patje

Email the drivers to me at toshirooc@driverheaven.net, and I will host them provisionally - before you post any links with these drivers, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE put up a disclaimer reminding people that these aren't official and untested! There have been incidents in the past at a different well known board where someone released drivers without testing them, and caused all sorts of trouble (you know what I mean digi

)

patje · Feb 12, 2003, 10:18 AM

Thnx ToshiroOC i'll work on that disclaimer, never tought about that lol
but u are right i need one

I'll try to mail the drivers but i guess i'll have to reduce the size or cut them in pieces of 2-3 megs.

ToshiroOC · Feb 12, 2003, 10:23 AM

The smaller the better - my hosting account will be limited to 5GB of downloads per month, so the smaller these are the more downloads I'll be able to handle. I've got Winace and WinRAR, so feel free to use whatever you need to to send them to me.

ToshiroOC · Feb 12, 2003, 10:23 AM

Also, CC the emails to toshirooc@yahoo.com, just in case the spam filter at DH decides to not like you

msix · Feb 12, 2003, 10:30 AM

Will they have support for IGP 340M?

Thanx

ToshiroOC · Feb 12, 2003, 10:34 AM

Thats another thing I expect Patje to handle - clear descriptions of what will work with the drivers and what won't - it is most definitely best to be clear and explicit about these sorts of things so end users don't end up the creek with a messed up system because the drivers weren't intended for use on their system or don't yet work on those systems...

EDIT: I looked at his disclaimer, and it included a list of cards and parts the CATs should work with, and they included the IGP340 - no guarantees as to whether they will actually work of course, but they should

Thanx

Support --> Yes
Will they work? --> Dunno

I don't have a IGP 340M to test with, but let me know if it works, but i believe it should work.

One more thing these drivers will be for Win2k/XP only

Right now i'm waiting on the approval for the disclaimer, but these drivers will be online today.

Second more thing:

This is the second time i modded drivers (first time was for myself) so I know what i did.
Problem, I modded these at work without my laptop, so I was not able yet to test them on my laptop.

My question: Would you guys prefer me testing them tonite first on my laptop and handing them over tomorrow if they work? or do you say what the heck gimme the set and i'll test them myself?

ToshiroOC · Feb 12, 2003, 10:43 AM

I would recommend waiting - not only is it 2:45am over here and I'm getting sleepy, but a little bit of prelim testing may help find a couple of bugs that are easily correctable before the first release. However, it is your call patje...

AvA · Feb 12, 2003, 10:59 AM

Good Job Paje!

Usually I mod the new Catalyst releases by myself, but this time I ran into a strange problem I can't seem to fix (see my post on the "official" Cat 3.1 thread).
What Mobility cards have you tested your modded drivers on?
Have you just added the support for the Mobility cards or you've done some sort of other tweaks?

I'm really waiting to see if you had more success than I had!

I decided to wait until I get home and test them myself first.
Cause if they don't work, i might let a people down, and I don't want that.

It is now 12u30 PM, I get home at about 18u00 PM, first thing i'll do is test them, then I'll probably have to go to my girlfriend (..sigh..) so I hope to test them and post them before that.

Btw. I also removed the Control panel form the file, Size is now about 5 megs. So you can start downloading the control panel already

I did not tweak them for one reason, i don't know how lol, they are just modded that's all

patje · Feb 12, 2003, 06:14 PM

drivers are almost ready, tested them, but needed some modifications

If not today, tomorrow for certain available

ToshiroOC · Feb 12, 2003, 11:43 PM

patje, email me the newest version when you are ready for release, so I can update the mirror.

AvA · Feb 13, 2003, 12:40 AM

Can't wait for your modded set patje!
This morning I tried again to modify the original ATi set, but I eneded up with the same result as yesterday... Weird flashing/shifting gray screen with random horizontal and vertical lines.
I checked more than once my .inf file, but it seems allright (at least to me).

I really hope you're set is going to work on my laptop...

Omega and Cyborg might be working to help us in our efforts for updated mobility drivers: we're not alone!

On a side note: a girlfriend is much more important than a bunch of files!

Candyman · Feb 13, 2003, 04:54 AM

Will they support all Mobility chipsets....including the M1????

patje · Feb 13, 2003, 08:33 AM

It should be fast enough,

Thnx anyway m8

ToshiroOC · Feb 13, 2003, 08:34 AM

OK, I uploaded the most recent version to my mirror, at the same link I gave you, so if you need it just post the link and it will be there

schwarz2 · Feb 13, 2003, 12:15 PM

patje....good job with modding the drivers for everyone...

AvA ... i know you tried modding the drivers yourself...i wonder what problem you had...i saw your thread where you mentioned:

Quote:

Those who are wondering how to do this wonderful "magic trick" can have a look at this old DH thread and follow the instructions

using some common sense as to where to put the fixes i used the same method and mine works great. I'll have to compare it to patje's and see if it's any different. ... they're great drivers...take care

schwarz

patje · Feb 13, 2003, 12:19 PM

thnx Schwarz,

But I must admit I learned from you, so many thanx goes out to you to!
Your post got me interested in modding drivers, so if it wasn't for you ...

MoinMan · Feb 13, 2003, 06:00 PM

I'm very interested in this modded driver but it seems the server is down.
