MacFaulty

So, I got it running now on 10.8.0 with some kexts from somebody (will try to post those later, but busy with school now ), but whenever I want to update to 10.8.2 I get a kernel panic on AMDAccelerator and even a rollback doesn't work Anybody got experience with this?

I know this thread is reasonably old, but I finally got it working on my desktop by setting the integrated as primary and if you boot in the mac you switch the cable to your dedicated card right away to bypass the cold boot bug. After a fes mins you have a fully working desktop with your HD6950 as primary card.

My Graphics Family is Cayman (Cayman Pro officially, but I only see Cayman). So I looked and my device IDs are already in there. My device IDs are already in all kexts. My dev & ven ID: 0x67191002
ATISupport is always loaded. I checked that with the program given in the post from the olarila forum, so that works

What to do next? I just don't get any further (even with Google). I know that some people (like manor) got it working somehow. Also read his dual 6950 guide, but doesn't work with my card

edit: my kexts info.plist files:

Okay, so I re-installed ML 10.8.0. Now getting this from scratch (hope I do this right )

First step is to inject dev and vendor IDs in the ATI6000Controller, AMDRadeonAccelerator and ATISupport kexts, right? There is already one thing I don't understand: What do you mean "insert in the right family", my family is Gibba (I googled and that came up). So I guess I must set my IDs in the Gibba sections, right?

I'll do this first and go experiment with the framebuffer names (got a list already, was searching on the wrong places xD).

If anybody got any additional ideas or suggestions, feel free to post them, because they might always come in handy

Oh, do I need to delete AMDRadeonAccelerator or do I need to keep it???
And where do I need to put my device IDs? In the Cayman and Gibba sections of the kexts?? A bit confusing...

What port do you mean? I'm using the First PCIe x16 for my card and my screen is plugged in the upper DVI port of my 6950 (top left, that is).
Will try another port then, but didn't worked back then.

Please tell me, how can I see what's loaded when I'm in safe mode?
Is there a list with all Framebuffer names?? Couldn't find any and I saw that my device and vendor ID already were registered in the Gibba section of ATI6000Controller (or AMDRadeonAccelerator, cant remember). So I used Gibba. It is also the standard one used by chameleon (chimera) bootloader.

I'm currently running 10.8.0. Couldn't update because of this white screen thingy.

Please, is there something so I can understand what's going on and where to look? I looked everywhere. Even other forums and searched, searched, but nothing useful came up. I also tried the kexts from manor's post, but didn't work either.

If I now boot with my own kexts I have to use -f (or UseKernelCache=No) but then it won't get past the verbose part I haven't rebuild my kextcache. Will try to do this now if I can get in the OS.

Hope you can understand me.
