Hi all! i have a fully worked hackintosh with lion 10.7.3

i have a question, i had problem with my ATI XFX 5770 , my system recognized as generic 5xxx

error with some programs

 

now i have put in org.chameleon.boot.plist this string

 

<key>UseAtiROM</key>

<string>Yes</string>

and arch=X86_64= yes

 

and now my card is recognized as ATI 5770 perfectly at 1920x1080 and is very fast on 3d

work fine with two monitors (monitor + TV full HD) and hdmi on TV works after DSDT.aml patch.

chess and dvd player works.

 

i got 300+ fps with glview 4.0 cube test (all default, not fullscreen).

 

my ioreg

 

sh-3.2# ioreg | grep ATY

but... i don't put any rom in /Extra !!!

 

what is possible without any rom now work good?

i miss something?

 

other question: when boot in chameleon i see black bar (up,down,left,right) i think resolution is small

i have tryed to put others resolutions in o.c.b.p. but without success.

 

Is my card configured perfectly?

Is possible to raise the chamaleon boot resolution to 1920x1080x32?

I need to modify my 5770 bios?

UseATiROM only works if you have a ROM in /Extra. You can remove that option since you don't actually have a ROM in /Extra.

 

If you really want a ROM (which in your case is not necessary), you can extract your ROM using GPU-Z in Windows, then rename it to [devID]_1002.rom.

 

To change the resolution, at the end of your org.chameleon.boot.plist add

<key>GraphicsMode</key>
<string>1920x1080x32</string>

Nope.

 

What's cobp? Did you try the GraphicsMode? Make sure you have the correct syntax.

 

o.c.b.p. = org.chameleon.boot.plist

 

this is mine

 

 

<dict>

<key>EthernetBuiltIn</key>

<string>Yes</string>

<key>GraphicsEnabler</key>

<string>Yes</string>

<key>Kernel Flags</key>

<string>rd=uuid boot-uuid=391D0864-9869-49DF-991D-A7FAE66EBF0C arch=X86_64</string>

<key>Quiet Boot</key>

<string>Yes</string>

<key>ShowInfo</key>

<string>Yes</string>

<key>Theme</key>

<string>Default</string>

<key>Timeout</key>

<string>2</string>

<key>UseAtiROM</key>

<string>Yes</string>

<key>GraphicsMode</key>

<string>1920x1080x32</string>

</dict>

Try maybe a different theme? Some themes don't support that high of a res...have you actually verified the resolution? Try hitting the menu button or whatever on your display and it should tell you what resolution it's displaying.

 

If you are using Quiet Boot, there shouldn't be a prompt at all.
