Ian T Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 bossent20, If you're using Chameleon 2.0 RC3-r658 + Netkas' PC EFI v10.5, it should work... Add the following keys to /Extra/com.apple.Boot.plist <key>GraphicsEnabler</key> <string>yes</key> <key>Graphics Mode</key> <string>1920x1200x32</string> Be sure to change the Graphics Mode string to the resolution of your monitor. If, it does not work the first time around, boot into single user mode (-v +x) and add this to /Extra/com.apple.Boot.plist <key>Kernel Flags</key> <string>-pci1</string> Save the changes and reboot... This is an override for the default location of the primary graphics card slot (pci-e slot). If you'd rather determine which slot your pci-e is, run this command in Terminal: ioreg -l | grep -15 "AppleACPIPCI\ " | grep UID Netkas' PC EFI v10.5 seems to rely on dsdt.aml for pci root detection, so make sure you have dsdt.aml in /Extra/. You can find more information on PC EFI v10.5 and GraphicsEnabler at Netkas' website @ netkas.org. Hope this helps!
