Rampage's Guide. Something about DIGA and DIGB or similar in the editing section

@Rampage Dev -

I couldn't understand it, for the personality editing part. It was too confusing. Booting with AtiConfig=Lotus, and Ipomoea do not yeild a working framebuffer (Just AMDRadeonFrameBuffer from ioreg)

@Slice

I'm not using Clover. But it looks like you got it to work, although yours has only 3 ports. My ROM output has 4, I believe I need a personality with 4, despite the back of my card having only 3 ports.
Would I need to use Clover to get these settings? Trying yours now.

Where is the sense ID in my rom? :

This is an output from red sock_bios_decoder. If you want to see senseid then you need radeon_bios_decoder by bcc9.
In my case

Slice, my Sapphire Radeon 6670 has the same values as yours. I see you are actively developing Clover, that's great and good for me to know. If you think it's better for me to switch from Chameleon to Clover to have this card function 100% I will. But before that I need to ask a few questions to find the right direction (10.8.3) (anybody else feel naturally free to answer, too):

• to which ports do you have monitors attached? I have one at DVI and one at HDMI. The problem with GraphicsEnabler YES is that BOTH turn black as soon as the GUI should load (I see a brief bright grey then black), regardless if Chameleon auto-sets the fb (Pithecia) or if U choose Ipomoea as you suggest.
  
  With VGA + HDMI all is OK. So I would need to know from you if you also have DVI + HDMI attached at the same time, and if you do NOT experience the balck screens.  
  
  
• would Clover for sure solve the issue described in 1.?  
  
  
• does clover install a boot or similar file to / which can be CHAINLOADED like Chameleon boot? I am using Grub4DOS as bootloader on a hybrid MBR/GPT partition HDD, which loads Chameleon just fine via
  

  	title 10.8.3 via Chameleon_2189
  	 kernel /Chameleon_2189.boot
  	
  

• when I boot without GraphicsEnabler, I have full QE/Ci, and even DVD player launches. Wow. Oddly enough, when I run ioreg | grep ATY, it outputs the generic ATY,AMD,RadeonFramebuffer. Now that's new to me .. I thought DVD player REQUIRES a dedicated fb personality to launch?
  
• Since DVD Player does launch DESPITE generic ATY,AMD,RadeonFramebuffer, which benefit would I have with the correct fb set via plist?

Thank you for your time, expertise, and efforts!

BugsB,
Sorry for delay with answer.
1. My monitor attached to DVI. I tested also with VGA and see no differencies (it supports less resolution but 1920x1080 yes).
With GraphicsEnabler=Yes (GraphicsInjjector in the case of Clover) I got black screen if no connector patch is applied.
With =No there is RadeonFramebuffer that works almost good. Just DVDPlayer crashes.
I have no devices to attach to HDMI. What it may be? My monitor has DVI connector.

2. Clover works for me.
3. Clover's boot file can be started exactly as Chameleon's one. But boot1h for Chameleon has a bug corrected in boot1h2 distributed with Clover.
4. I said about this in 1. In my case DVD player requires dedicated framebuffer. Else crashes.
5. May be multimonitor configuration?
