lebasti80 Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Hello! I managed to get dual screen support under iDeneb 1.3 for my radeon hd 3650 by using the driver from this big radeon hd-thread, works like a charm - except that every time i restart osx, my dvi ports are swapped. because i am using displays with different resolutions, only one of them shows the desktop after this. i can't change the resolution without changing the cables, because my main screen (the one with the bigger resolution not displayed anymore) is not accessible. anyone seen this behaviour before? i thought about writing an applescript for fixing this, but i did not yet get so far. greets sebastian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starobrno1 Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 If you´re using an injector kext maby you could edit it´s plist and change display A over to B and B to A to force it to set your main display as A. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lebasti80 Posted January 8, 2009 Author Share Posted January 8, 2009 I am some kind of noob in terms of this whole kext-business, so i don't know exactly how to do this. i am using the pkg from ritalin "v153410 ATIRadeonX2000 kext, framebuffers, OpenGL frameworks, and Natit for the HD3650" , so i think there's an injector present ( Ritalins post ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lebasti80 Posted January 14, 2009 Author Share Posted January 14, 2009 i crawled through the .plists , but i found no settings concerning the different screens... is anybody out there with a similar setup who's got this working with 2 dvi without swapping and dcc-information interchanged?

lebasti80 Posted January 14, 2009 Author Share Posted January 14, 2009 Maybe some settings in /Library/Prefereces/com.apple.windowserver.plist could help . you can find some keys for display-resolution and such in it... i'll have a closer look tomorrow.

lebasti80 Posted January 15, 2009 Author Share Posted January 15, 2009 Ok, i can't figure out how to use the /Library/Prefereces/com.apple.windowserver.plist for solving our problem. Another thing i tried was to remove Natit.kext from Extensions and adding the EFI-String for the Radeon HD 3600 256 mb into the boot.plist (i can't find an efi-string matching to my 512 mb variant). When i boot with this changes, both screens seem to initialize in the right order, anyhow, i get stuck at the "blue-screen". with the Natit.kext this blue screen is just displayed for about 5 seconds on the swapped screen which is displayed, then it switches to my normal background. hope i described things right. any idea how to build an efi-string for 512 mb?
