Thanks for the great post.

 

So far got 5770 working great in 32Bit mode with ATY_Init.kext

 

But every time I try the steps for 64Bit the system just crashes one second after boot cycle starts.

 

You mentioned a DSDT edit. I was wondering if you could post the DSDT edit you made?

I originally compiled my DSDT with an nVidia card inside the box. Should I recompile?

Try to remove nVidia properties from your DSDT. I was curious how you could boot 32bit mode while you had nVidia properties in your DSDT and used an ATI graphic card.

Probably worked because the DSDT data is for PNP

 

Device (PCI0)
	{
		Name (_HID, EisaId ("PNP0A03"))
		Name (_ADR, Zero)
		Name (_UID, Zero)
		Name (_BBN, Zero)
		Method (_S3D, 0, NotSerialized)
		{
			If (LEqual (OSFL, 0x02))
			{
				Return (0x02)
			}
			Else
			{
				Return (0x03)
			}
		}

		Method (_STA, 0, NotSerialized)
		{
			Return (0x0F)
		}

 

But might explain why when I switch to GraphicsEnabler=Yes I get instant panic

 

Will give your suggestion a try tomorrow.

 

Would love a Radeon DSDT for comparison though. Any radeon DSDT. Just want to see how the string is laid out.

 

You have one? I'll look around goog and see what I get.

 

Thanks for the help.

This is my dsdt, mostly based on kdawg's dsdt in DSDT fixes for Gigabyte boards.

Ok so I first installed osx86 10.6.3 using iatkoss3. Everything was working fine. But since i have the ati 5770 card my resolution was low.

 

I followed the instructions currently present on osx86 wiki for 10.6.3 components.

I added graphics enabler no and rich-386 to the boot.plist file.

 

But now when I boot. I can see the apple logo. B ut when it is supposed to boot into the desktop

I get a black screen and my moon itor goes to sleep.

 

Can somebody please help me. It appears that the computer is booting fine to osx.

This is my DSDT that contains bin image of HD5770 and it might help someone wants to get two same graphic cards working.

 

GraphicsEnabler=No

 

decompiled from DSDT.aml

EP45_UD3R_HD5770.zip

 

 

original, you will see what is different. I compiled from this one first.

original.zip

 

How I did:

 

copied data of bin image from IORegistryExplorer to text edit, and then replaced for example 00 with 0x00,

 

it took about an hour, not too long, but nust be careful.

Finally, got one HD5770 with two LCD monitors and one LCD TV (HD)

 

it's not easy. The best is that all three monitors should be the same.

 

Don't test under Windows 7 yet.

 

DisplayPort --> DP2VGA adapter --> Acer X203H

DVI --> L226WTQ

 

DVI (next to air passage) --> DVI2HDMI ATI adapter --> SAMSUNG

Thanks to Minimual who posted #200 on netkas.org that got 3 monitors on HD5870.

 

***Got to do it yourself.

Some really useful links here - thanks!

 

I presume no luck with HDMI audio yet?

I'm looking at this as an alternative if I can't get it to work...

 

 

Cheers

I have had Audio since installing my card and removing the Nvidia kexts. I used the ATI files that were posted by Kill_mark. And for my original Audio I am using VoodooHDA only. Audio shows in System Preferences as 'Digital Out(HDMI)'.

Trust me VoodooHDA is the worst kext's you could use for your HD soundcards, You just cannot compare the quality between AppleHDA and VoodooHDA, AppleHDA {censored}es all over everything, I could work on a AppleHDA that picks both ALC888 and ATI HDMI R600 Audio or ALC889a and ATI HDMI but i'm just busy at the moment and hands full but i will work on it when have few weeks gap :)
