Hi gang. I've recently acquired an original 500MHz PowerBook G4 Titanium which I am dual booting 9.2.2 and Leopard. Obviously running Leopard on a Rage 128 is rather painful, so I have attempted using kexts from Jaguar as described in this thread. https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/tip-ati-rage-128-in-leopard.1691634/ I believe I went through the proper process, but the system doesn't seem to be running any better and XBench doesn't produce the results others have reported. It just runs the same as it ever did before attempting to install the kexts. I tried the manual installation and using the Kext installer mentioned at the end of that thread. What I need is a little help ensuring I am doing this correctly. My order of operations:
1. Drag and drop extracted Kexts into System>Library>Extenstions
2. Authenticate with password.
3. Open up Terminal and run "sudo -s"
4. Enter password
5. In Terminal, run "
chown -R root:wheel /System/Library/Extensions/ATIRage*.*
rm -rf /System/Library/Extensions.mkext
reboot"
6. System reboots, and nothing has changed.
Am I missing something or doing this out of order? Your help is much appreciated
