Nikita123 Posted June 30, 2016 Share Posted June 30, 2016 I also have the black screen problem if I use injection with clover without DSDT. I have made two different configs. The first without DSDT and blackscreen, and a second config with no qe/ci but working display with DSDT. I also attached 2 separate ioregs and system.log and config.plist files. With the DSDT I have turned off the Nvidia injection in config.plist. I managed to log in to the system via teamviewer with the blackscreen. The Display is not detected, but drivers are loaded. Sony Vaio VPCF12S1E Core i7 1.73Ghz GT330M Vendor: 10de DeviceID: 0a29 VRAM: 1024MB System Memory: 8GB DDR3 133Mhz SMBios: MacBookPro6,2 Sound: Realtek ALC275 OSX Version : Yosemite 10.10.5 I hope someone can figure this out, have been try to figure this problem out for several days now. I do not have an HDMI screen or HDMI to DVI cable at the moment so I cannot test this. Going to try to experiment with NVCAP values now in clover configurator. Kind regards, Damian config1.zip config2.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind regards, Damian You're dealing with a typical Sony EDID issue. I can probably fix this by getting your EDID from Linux and using it to patch your DSDT. Upload your DSDT and an EDID dump from Linux and I'll take a look. To get the EDID from Linux, install read-edid however it's done in the LiveCD or distro or whatever you plan on using. Then run: get-edid -m 0 > edid.bin and upload that resulting file as well as a copy of your dsdt.aml and I can take a look Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
