Hello all...
Soooo.... anyone have any ideas on how to get the ATI Radeon 3100 card to work in OS X? I've got a little project running to get OS X up on a Toshiba Satellite, you can see my progress here, but I'm starting a different thread to ask for / post anything I find out regarding coaxing this card to work in OS X.
Well... I'm all ears!

ATI Radeon 3100 Hackintosh OSX86 support
20 May 2011 - 06:25 AM
Hackintosh Toshiba Satellite M305D
09 April 2011 - 07:25 AM
Hello all,
This will be a thread to discuss installing OS X on a Toshiba Satellite M305D, or more specifically the M305D-S4830 model. I'm currently waiting on it's return from Toshiba where it is being repaired. The specs are as follows:
Processor: AMD Turion X2 Ultra mobile ZM-80 / 2.1 ghz
Chipset: AMD M780V
Ram: DDR2
4 gb
Graphics Card: ATI Radeon 3100
Hard Drive: WD 320 gb (replacement, original Toshiba HD failed)
Audio: ? Not sure
More info here:
http://www.laptopdri...aptop_specs.htm
Moving right along, I have had OS X running in Virtual Box on this system, but now I'd like to get it up and running natively.
I'm planning on using the newly released 10.6.6i for AMD/Intel from Hazard for the install. I'm already pretty certain I'm going to need flags -v -x cpus=2 busratio=10 (might be off on that one, need to double check) to get the installer to run. May need other tweaks, it is yet to be seen.
I'm going to try to get absolutely everything working on this. I've looked around, and it sounds like it's possible, but it may take some heavy lifting so to speak, so I'm going to use this thread as part guide part group think for others trying to get OS X up and running on this little beast.
Thoughts, concerns, hair brained ideas, and theories are always welcome!

5 different EDIDs?
08 April 2011 - 09:36 PM
I was just looking through the dsdt table for my Vaio, and I noticed that it looks like the DSDT is set to return one of 5 different values for the EDID of the LCD display... 6 if you count the last one. EMPT I'll post it here, maybe someone can make sense out of it. Maybe if we can figure out the right one to use, or how to get OS X to match up with the IF statement with the EDID that would work, maybe it would fix the issue. Not sure.
Yeah, just looked at a few other DSDT files to compare and the LCD section from those examples does not include multiple EDID values or the code at the bottom with the if statements for the different EDID versions. Still don't know if this has anything to do with the issue. Maybe someone could clear up the "IF (LEqual (Local0, 0x0X)) part. Maybe somehow OSX is falling into the else part and ending up with EMPT returned, which looks like no EDID.
Also interesting, EDI4 and 5 are the same, while 1, 2, and 3 are all different.
The plot thickens...

Yeah, just looked at a few other DSDT files to compare and the LCD section from those examples does not include multiple EDID values or the code at the bottom with the if statements for the different EDID versions. Still don't know if this has anything to do with the issue. Maybe someone could clear up the "IF (LEqual (Local0, 0x0X)) part. Maybe somehow OSX is falling into the else part and ending up with EMPT returned, which looks like no EDID.
