No coverflow in iTunes?

You mean "Grid", right?



Another question: For the folks having this issue, does the visualizer work, or just a blank screen?

Lol, I just tried, seems it was a blank screen. The classic visualizer works though, kind of sluggish I think.

Huh. My classic works just fine, but just a blank screen otherwise. Same symptoms.

Here's a link to the Apple support discussion.

There is this view as well, and all views, if the covers are there, should work.

That one is coverflow.

Oh, and guys, new revelation. There isn't a kext loaded for my ATI Rage Pro 128.

Can you guys open the menu, click "About this Mac" then "More info" and select "Graphics/Displays". You should get this window:

Look under "Kernel Extension Info" and tell me what it says.

I doubt coverflow is supported on that card...
the old G3 B&W I had has a 128 rage (not the pro like you have though) and it doesnt do a whole lot of anything graphics wise.

Do you get the ripply effect when you add a widget to your dashboard?


Edit: just read the first posts, I could def be wrong... my post is almost worthless now, because I honestly am not a certain this is the problem as I was before when I read only this post...

Well, I can understand mine too, because my computer originally had a 450MHz G4 processor in it. The minimum requirements for Leopard are a a G4 with 867 MHz in it, which that model had a graphics card with 32MB of VRAM instead of my 16, so yea, that would do it.

Problem Solved.

It seems every single issue I've had with Leopard (e.g. hanging on Time Machine, blank Front Row, no iTunes Coverflow, etc.) was linked to one thing.

Quartz Extreme.

After I bought a newer card, specifically an Nvidia GeForce2 MX with 32MB VRAM, every single thing worked.
