We have found the golden one.
We found a bios for 4850 which allows to have dual-dvi on 4850 in leopard !
Dont worry, no need to flash anything, its all done soft way.
just try the updated aty-init – ATY_init zip
you will still need to use dvi2vga dongle if using only one dvi, but its easy to fix it by using patched motmot (from patched framebuffers in patched_files from irc)
good luck
also updated aty-init makes osx to think vga has 5.0 GT/s link speed, which is normal for pcie v2.0. (PCI cards in sys profiler)

Sorry to post in such an old thread, but I am trying to get my new Gigabyte ATI 4850 [http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814125238] working in my install of 10.5.8. I have 2 DVI monitors plugged in and I am getting the blue screens. Is there no fix for this at all? I am using the ATY_init.kext from here and the Natit.kext, ATIRadeon files from http://osx86.radeonhd.eu/
What am I doing wrong?
///dont use both aty_init and natit
Also tried the Natit.kext, ATIRadeon files from http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=155477
Same result, blue screens.
I have Leo4all 4.1 installed. Everything seems to work great, but really low resolution. If I install ATY_Init, I get a blue screen with a arrow cursor. If I hit sleep or the power button, it goes into sleep, but just before it does, I see my desktop. If I hit the power button again, or the Enter key to bring it back, nothing comes back. I have installed other distributions, like iAtkos v7 and when I would do that, I would get it would come back up with the desktop, but then would crash with a kernal panic. I have a Sapphire HD 3870 512MB DDR4 PCIe. Is it a problem with this driver, or with a sleep mode? I have tried all the other drivers and this one has gotten me the closest. Any help would be appreciated. Been working on this for over a month with a bunch of different distributions.
Any hope for HD4890 with dual dvi ports working???
Hello Netkas,
Whatever i do, when i install the graphic drivers (i’ve tryd different combinations and distro’s). spaces has some corruption in the “middle” of the screen, but everything else is alright.
It looks like a little wave in the form of a line.
So i tried almost? everything, and maybe i doing something wrong.
Netkas, you with your wonderful mind has probably a solution?

Hi, i’ve got a PowerColor 4850 / 512m running fine with a vanilla 10.5.8 and i d’like to get dual screen working, can you give a new link to download this ATY_Init ? this one’s dead…
Link is broken
link is dead please fix it 🙁
Link dead. Can’t run Snow Leopard cause I get various issues with applications not opening and garbled display problems. So, if I need to stick with 10.5.8, it would be nice if I could get it working with my 4850.
In addition to fixing the link…
I have 10.5.8 and ATY_Init.kext installed. I am using Chameleon RC 4 with vanilla kernel. When I sleep my computer, everything goes off fine. When trying to wake from sleep, I get a garbled screen and have to reset. Any chance of fixing that? Using Natit, I can sleep and wake just fine, however I can’t do dual dvi. FYI, I have Graphics Enabler set to yes and I have tried Force Wake yes and no with no difference.

Can you upload ATY_init zip to another hosting?
I need ATY_init for HD4850 (10.5.8 Leopard).
CLOMIPHENE is a fertility drug used to increase the chance of getting pregnant. It is used to help women ovulate (produce a mature egg) properly during their cycle. Compared to other fertility treatments, clomiphene alone does not greatly increase your chances of having multiple babies. An increased chance of having twins may occur in roughly 5 out of every 100 women who take this medication. Occasionally clomiphene is prescribed to men with fertility problems due to low sperm counts.
