buoo Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 Don't change/replace any kexts, ATi 4890 should work with GraphicsEnabler. If it doesn't work, look in ATI4800Controller.kext and check if the ID of your card is in the info.plist. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gringo Vermelho Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 Don't do that, just right-click -> show contents in the Finder. Kernel extensions are just like folders but with a different icon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buoo Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 • Go to System/Library/Extensions • Click on ATI6000Controller.kext, then Show Packages Contents • double click on Contents folder, then open Info.plist  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buoo Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 4 different numbers? Do you mean the vendor ID?  listen to me:  Right ID = Device ID + Vendor ID   i.e. Follow this way:  > About this Mac > More info > System Report > Graphics/Display  AMD Radeon HD 6870: Chipset Model: AMD Radeon HD 6870 Type: GPU Bus: PCIe Slot: PCIEX1_1 PCIe Lane Width: x16 VRAM (Total): 1024 MB Vendor: ATI (0x1002) Device ID: 0x6738 Revision ID: 0x0000   In this case you have to add 67381002 in info.plist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buoo Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 The kext is perfect! If you don't get 3D acceleration, try adding GraphicsEnabler=Yes in org.chameleon.boot.plist in your Extra folder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

undadogz Posted June 10, 2012 Author Share Posted June 10, 2012 hi i used pacifist and extracted all the kexts i had overwritten but still no luck when it boots its stops at the apple logo then the screen flashes quickly then I'm greeted with the lion user sign in screen .... but the only screen size i have is 1600x900 everything is out of the monitors view its so big is there a boot up file that might be corrupt ?? how can i check what goes on when the mac boots to see if there are any files that need replacing ??
