Ouch, so I've to unstage my local commits caused of this issue with SF (or Themes repo only?). Also my prev. changes actually have been committed but it seems not well indexed by CloverThemeManager.app.. though I need more than 15 minutes with a theme only to be updated on remote repo.

I probably should have searched this thread before posting this because I bet someone else has already observed this.

 

I am constantly being told to place all Kexts into /Library/Extensions rather than Clover's Kexts/Other for at least High Sierra.  I do understand how some of these kexts would need to be in L/E because of the order in which some of these kexts are injected with the native kexts.

 

From my observations this seems to be correct but if I try to boot the rescue partition or run a MacOS Combi update and possibly other scenarios, I can tell you for a fact it will not boot if you do not have minimally FakeSMC and for me using VoodooPS2 for laptops placed into the Clover /kexts/Other.  So which kexts really should not be in Clover /kexts/Other?

Is this Clover bug or just my compilation problem with xcode8?

r452x install menu (right one) is not comfortable to read and missed the descriptions. Thanks.

Same here with Xcode 9.4 compilation.

Hi devs, I've just noticed that since around rev 4516 the CsmVideoDxe driver doesn't work anymore for me.

Fellas, can anyone help pls?

Patches are off in the Clover or the OS is screwed? 10.13.5 fresh install, Clover is bare with minimal stuff in it, only patches are USB and XCPM, same issue with 10.13.4, but 10.13.3 works like a charm. Tried many versions of Clover, same results.

 

HELP!

Well, 

My limited understanding says all kext and kernel patches/injections that clover can do on the fly go in Clover/Kexts.10.x.x/Others, rest you need to place in S/L/E or L/E as they are  altered kexts.

How do I enable 2560x1440 res in clover gui? I tried setting in config.plist but it didn't work.

 

You might need CSM disabled in BIOS, no CSMvideo driver in Clover, and an UEFI supported graphics card (WITH the UEFI firmware installed). That's usually the recipe for native resolution in preboot.

I'm also using a 2560x1440 monitor, and I have no issues. So I'm sure it is possible.

Thanks ill check the bios settings. I will assume my GTX960 has uefi firmware.

Well, if disabling CSM in Bios doesn't do the trick, I would also double check the graphics card firmware, as well. Just in case. :) It most likely does have the UEFI firmware installed. But it's worth double checking this, since this is an important part of the whole process (if not the most important part). Otherwise, it won't work.

 

Sadly, the only way I know to check that information is...from Windows, using GPU-Z.

When everything is ok, it should look something like this.

Yeah it's all good. My uefi firmware has option for other os or Windows, when I switched to Windows option I could disable csm which gave me native resolution. (New monitor today)
