Mobility Radeon HD 2400 XT

[-!N-]

All I tried was without EFI string, because if i try to boot with EFI string i cannot get it to boot in graphic, get stuck at this:

ACPI_SMC_PlatformPlugin::start - waitForService(resourceMatching(AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement) timed out

but i think the problem is cause by loading the graphic kext, which should take place at this stage...

Remove AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext if it is causing problems. I will try to get the patched ATIFramebuffer to you tomorrow.

I mean, if you're telling whats maybe causing the disfunction, perhaps i could work something out...

Please, i need help

ATIRadeonX2000

ATISupport

ATI2400Controller

load just fine at normal boot.

 

Both screens show grey color only. System profiler says that there are no displays connected, as if graphic card could not find its outputs? image is in 3rd post above..

I need the notebook for work soon - and i don't want to go back to windows :/ - apart from that graphic issue, everything works just fine

I've also dumped what "Lizard" calls injected EFI (although i have not been inserting a EFI via boot.plist) which is interesting i think... chameleon_devprop.plist.zip

I have converted a few values, dunno if it helps:

 

Please notice: i do not have EFI string present, system would not boot then. (used Dyckyj's EFI string when tried)

I could also arrange a VNC session, you would get ip+password then

What happened to x0deadbeef and Dyckyj? I don't know whether this issue is hard to solve, but does someone know how to patch the kexts or make the outputs work?
