The bootlaoder is chameleon rev 747 with modded ati.c with corrected default framebuffer to Shrike and model name for my DeviceId: 0x9480 (Kabyl boot file is no go for me)

My dell inspiron 1464 (mobility hd4330, 512M 0x95521002) finally supported with QE/CI.
I followed exactly your instruction.
LVDS and VGA works since I do not have hdmi monitor to test, so I changed only those two sections.
I tried Quali, flicker, kakapo, shrike and peregrine.
I did not get well until I notice that there's NullCPUPowerManagement.kext playing around causing blackscreen or timed out. After remove the kext the graphics worked, both internal and VGA!  

Many thanks people!

Hi, mucha

Can you help me to find out why I can not make 3 display ports (HDMI, DVI, & VGA) working at the same time ?
My ATI HD 5770 is Asus EAH 5770.

If VGA and HDMI audio are working, there is no output from DVI.
If disconnect VGA, then both HDMI audio and DVI are working now.
I have tried many different parameters for its VGA port, and this one is the only working up to now.
Is there any secret to make all 3 display working according to your knowledge or experience ?
I hope Asus did not remove ATI Eyefinity function from this EAH 5770 card because it's the only 5770 card which is lack of DP port.
EDIT on 2011-11-23:
Asus had disabled ATI EyeFinity function of its EAH 5770 card, so only two ports can be displayed at the same time.

My MSI Hawk 5770 has the same problem:
Can you help me to find out why my MSI Hawk 5770 can not display 3 ports (DP, HDMI, & DVI) at the same time in SL_10.6.6 ?

Up to now only the first TWO of these Three ports working.
Unless I dis-connect either DP or HDMI at first, otherwise the third DVI port can not be activated.
I have changed their order, but still get the same result: Need disconnect 1st or 2nd port to make the 3rd working.

EDIT on 2011-11-23:
MSI Hawk 5770 can display 3 ports at the same time if I use an active EyeFinity DP->HDMI convertor or DP->DP cable in SL 10.6.6/10.6.7 and Lion 10.7.2 only. That means it fails in SL 10.6.8 and Lion 10.7.0/10.7.1

mucha awsome man, think i have worked out my encoder and transmitter values follwing bcc9's guide as well

[checcco]

Guys please help me...dong radeonhd doesn't work on my 5650...how can i get the information i need? I've tried ubuntu and xorg log file tell something about uniphy but cant understand it

[kokosnuss]

Hey yanghy,

think i'm stuck at nearly the same piont as you are.

My Sony is a VPCEB3C5 with the same Video / Display Properties. So therefore my radeondump looks exactly the same

I tried to get the 5650 on internal screen just like checco and atlee described here:

http://www.insanelym...t=#entry1652125

and i managed to get the external VGA-Display working (like checco described with 2 Screens found and divided Display and so on). So far so good. But after trying different FBs, i got stuck on this.

What seems strange ist, that on most external-working FBs, the Backlight of internal LCD is on, but black. Same for you? So the internal gets kinda signal... but something is missing.

Therefore i found muchas guide and am willing to try and test, but need more help with this. How do i know which connectortype, AtyControlFlag, SenseID etc. my lappy has or where can i find this?

We're so close, there is just little to get going. Let's do this together!

Have not heard of anyone trying. Reasonably likely to work though.

[sydlix]

Ok I tried this method without success, for sure I am doing something wrong.
  
  First of all I don't really get how to switch between the framebuffer types (shrike, peregrine etc).
  
  I opened the ATIFramebuffer binary in hexedit and I modified these sections:
  
  00010F80    
  00010F90      
  00010FA0

I think they are for shrike, 64bit? (I am booting SL 64bit).

However I modified the values according to my WEIRD connector specs:

I used the first 3 connectors.
I am on a Dell Studio XPS 1640 with ATI Mobility Radeon 4670. I also don't know if I need GraphicsEnabler=YES?  I think my device id (9488) is already in ATI4600 kext.

If someone can provide the informations I need as long as the right boot file maybe I can test this?

Thank you

[kokosnuss]

Hi!

You can easily switch between framebuffers with this bootflag:

AtiConfig=FB

where FB is your desired Framebuffer (i.e. Shrike, Peregrine etc..) I think its case sensitive (pls. correct me, if not)

For this method you'll need a bootloader, which can handle this (i.e. cham RC 5 Ati .748) and bootflag GraphicsEnabler=Yes

You can find the Hex-binary for Shrike-FB in muchas textfiles. Open the ATIFramebuffer binary in Hex-Edit an search for your desired connector-entry. As mucha desribed, you'll find this twice (one for 32-bit one for 64). The different connector digits should follow one after another.

Thanks for the great guide mucha!

Could you please give a link to your bootloader. I searched everywhere and I could not find it.

I have Dell Studio 1747 with Radeon mobility 4650 (0x9480).  I made a modded Shrike for my laptop but it does not work for some reason .

Thank you.  

I was only able to figure out the ATY,ControlFlags but thanks to your excellent guide I now can know the rest. I make the assumption ATY,ControlFlags for HDMI is 0x204 based on the IORegistry when I'm using 10.7 kexts which the external monitor connected to HDMI was working. I guess I'm wrong.  

I have downloaded your guide but do not have the opportunity to read it yet. I will read it to figure out how to make HDMI working without the interference with LVDS.

Kizwan, I was trying to follow your excellent guide at dell studio thread but could not get it to work.

Hi I've tried kizwan kext and boot file from this post: http://www.insanelym...p...t&p=1657833

It is not working on lvds, it is stuck in verbose/grey apple logo althrough the system is started (I can shut down via power button and enter). I cannot verify if it is correctly loading the kexts.

Some more info.

10.6.6 installed with latest boot cd from nawcom.
boot file you provided defaulting with vervet framebuffer.
com.apple.boot.plist with ONLY -v, GraphicsEnabler=Yes (maybe need to add something?)
ATIFramebuffer you provided, with modified vervet section.

All other kexts are stock. I also have NO NullCPUpower etc, only fakesmc, ps2 and ahci injectors.

I also repaired permissions on the partition. Do you think the problem is related to enc/trasmitter values or maybe I am doing something wrong.

I have a 1640, not a 1645, only differences from the bios dump are:

SubsystemVendorID: 0x1028 SubsystemID: 0x0272 = 1640
SubsystemVendorID: 0x1028 SubsystemID: 0x02fe = 1645

Hi kokosnuss,

It seems we have the same problem. However, I do not have VGA and HDMI
for testing.

When I use Nomascus without changing the other bytes, only the SenseID, from 02 to 04. I found only the 02 will bring the backlight "ON" with black screen.

So I guess 02 is the SenseID.  Today, I got output from uBuntu as below.

Again insufficent information, need to test one by one. However, base on the UNIPHY, the possible "Encoder and Transmittor" combination should be as below.

00 00

I will test later today. By the way, what Framebuffer you are using?

So, according to linux Xorg logs, which said:
LVDS UNIPHY2(DIG0), VGA DAC1, HDMI & DP UNIPHY(DIG1). DIG0 should equal to mucha's DIG1 and DIG1 to mucha's DIG2.
I modified accordingly to:

VGA is working correctly. HDMI is working correctly. DP I don't know but I think so.
on HDMI I tried also 10 as transmitter and it works.
LVDS is giving me BLACK screem with acrive backlight. I can see from the HDMI output that the internal display is recognized, it even changes resolution, but it stays BLACK..
I have also tried changing the control flag on lvds to 0x100 but it gives corrupted screen and nothing works anymore.
I don't know if it has something to do with the features section, being a rgbled display, what can I try?

Please HELP!

That is correct but your Radeon dump doesn't look complete. Where is DisplayPort?

HDMI senseid is incorrect. It should be 0x02 not 0x05. What framebuffer are you using? Does the boot file you're using already set the same framebuffer for your card?

Since you have 4 connections, try Vervet framebuffer & patch it with these:-

Hello, some progress here! But I'm struggling with the LVDS!

Good job!

This is what you get when the ATIFramebuffer.kext doesn't installed properly. When it doesn't installed properly, it won't load.

Good job again! The patched ATIFramebuffer.kext I prepared just to help you to get started quickly. Only need to fixed the transmitter & encoder for your card, just like you did here.

When you got blank on LVDS, does external monitor connected? Try unplugged all external monitor. See whether you got video on LVDS after unplugged the external monitor(s).

When my LVDS is blank, I can connect/disconnect HDMI, and it is recognized, but LVDS stays blank. System says the internal display is connected, gives resolution change, info, everything like it is working, but it is black! I don't know what to do, the dumps says that it is UNIPHY2 so I tried 0x02 0x12 0x22 as transmitters. With 0x12 if I remember correctly the display was recognized but after disconnecting and reconnecting hdmi was no more detected. So it seems that the most correct one is DUAL A+B = 0x02, althrough it gives black display. I am gonna try something with the features, like 0x08 (only backlight?).

If you have any suggestion let me know.
