You have to decompile it, edit using a text editor, and compile it again. http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=189272 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teateam Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 About mirror mode and new Framebuffer: all new Framebuffers have Macrovision (Hello iTunes Store). Last framebuffer without Macrovision is v5.3.0. I think we need modify vbios for mirror work. Someone can make a dump VBIOS GMA950 from MacBook or MacMini? @Andy Vandijck Your bootloader can shadow vbios for Intel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kellis Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 I have an Acer ao150 with gma450, i got it to work in native resolution and QE (menu is transparent), all works fine, except the external monitor. all garbled as some have mentioned. I am not sure if installing this package would help anything? Would it fix the external monitor? Anyone knows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not sure if installing this package would help anything? Would it fix the external monitor? Anyone knows? Could you try latest boot file from Chameleon forum? It makes all connectors visible (including 0x27A68086)... I need to know which connector is used for this... If it uses this also, I'll patch up the kext for this one too...

Noodle09 Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Will this fix work for 10.6.3? Currently, I'm using AppleIntelIntegratedFramebuffer.kext from 10.6.2 (suppose, I download it from this forum), OpenCL works fine, but cannot wake up correctly. If use stock kext from 10.6.3, I got garble screen and a lot issues. Here is the ROM dump 27A2.5D00.0003.vga.rom.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi, Thank you for replying, I thought i installed the latest chameleon, how can i know if i indeed did or not? a version somewhere? a file size? a cksum i can run against a file? Thank you PS: The 2nd monitor works if i use it as a 2nd monitor, but if mirror mode, that's when it gets messed up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noodle09 Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 I tried your solution, you just have 1.6.6 of all packages. Are you running osx 10.6.3? 10.6.3 come with 1.6.10. Did you try latest Aperture? on it?

Here is the ROM dump Hmm I tested on a similar machine with 27D2 Intel GMA, same revision, it worked fine but needed stock kext / patch Change: 8680A227 -> 8680AE27 86807227 -> 8680A227 In the binaries and then edit the plists with respective id's changed 0x27A28086 becomes 0x27AE8086 0x27728086 becomes 0x27A28086 With the rest of the fixes in place it should work... 0xED is the tool of my choice for editing...

Desert Warriors Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 for 0x27A28086:Don't replace stock framebuffer kext's... Apple uses this kind of card. You then only need the PNLF device in your DSDT and the bootloader installed with GraphicsEnabler enabled... Hi andy, Thanks for all :-) I ve got a Dell Inspiron 640m having Intel GMA950 (27a2). 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:27a2] (rev 03) 00:02.1 Display controller [0380]: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS/GME, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:27a6] (rev 03) the booter detected it along with 27a6. Unfortunately the kexts don't give any result on LCD, but on external VGA only. It enabled me sleep/resume for the first time on my hacknitosh :-) So thanks again for you, Prasys and all who contributed :-) I have a little question though : I wonder wether your GMA950 kext with stock (10.6.3) AppleIntelIntegratedFrameBuffer should be used or both should be stock in order to have LCD working . Thanks in advance. Hoper Hi all GMA950-ologs :-) I made some advances since my last post. I figured out that there was a Natit.kext in my extensions folder that I removed. With stock 10.6.3 AIFBuffer and GMA950 kext (that fixes 27AE only) I can get display working but after a rather tricky workaround: I have to plug an external monitor, switch to it and then unplugging it in order to get LCD working. With the GMA950 kext that fixes both 27a2 and 27ae, I have no LCD and no VGA even with the precedent trick. I m writing this now using the working combination but this is not very practical, you'll admit. Somebody sees any workaround for this issue? Should I patch the stock GMA950? What changes should I perform then? Thanks for your suggestions. Hoper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kellis Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Yeah right here...Download from my first post boot_rel3.zip Replace boot in / Also removed debugging.. Hello, thank you very much for trying to help me. I installed the file you recommended. It booted fine (although the crude TEXT interface was interesting at first it started fine and in the nice boot up resolution. i did not choose any options, i just hit enter. MacOS started well, but the same problem occurs. Also, the GMA Graphic options in the About this Mac > More Info is showing the exact data. I took 2 screenshots, before and after. Any other idea to have the mirror option to work? Note that the extended desktop works fine and always has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noodle09 Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 Search Screen Solution Installer. With stocked kexts from 10.6.3, your LCD isn't dead, it's sleeping. Somebody wrote a program that wake up the LCD, works well, but still painful because if you are not login, your screen will fresh itself every few seconds or minutes.
