Trying to get HDMI working on a XFX 5670 1GB. Stuck at step 8 - Restart. Boots fine with the latest Chameleon and 10.6.4. Steps 3 through 7 using Baboon results in no HDMI signal on the restart. If I apply the graphics update without the restart, I get the ATIRadeonX3000 KP on the next restart. Any suggestions?

try use anther hd5000 kexts (7 kexts)

 

I tried the kexts from the graphics update and the ones from netkas.org. Still no change.

Same situation here.

 

EDIT: I've managed to get it working by injecting device-id 0x68be1002 into ATI5000 kext, info.plist.

 

Thank you Mohamed for all the support and the wonderful bootloader!

see ID not name of card :)

known working card hd5700 hd5800 hd5900 hd5670

 

 

 

 

second

How to make them work

1- do new install 10.6 or 10.6.3

2- update to 10.6.4

3- install latest chameleon pkg from here

4-replace boot file on root by one of my boot files

5- add to boot.plist this two keys

	<key>GraphicsEnabler</key>
  <string>Yes</string>
  <key>UseAtiROM</key>
  <string>Yes</string>

6- extract your gfx bios by gpuz under windows

7-paste this bios on extra folder after naming it to 1002_xxxx.rom replace xxxx with your device id

8- restart

9-install GFX update 1.0

10- hope it works good for you :)

 

 

Third

how to test boot file

i made 30 boot file with all 30 ATi frambuffer

this because some cards dont work with know frambuffer that it make to work

like

ati 5770 works good on vervet

vapor x of 5770 work only with baboon :)

 

so if you know which frambuffer works with you just choose it

if you don't know just try 30 boot file :D

 

i need feedback for working frambuffer with you ATi hd5000

 

in future i will try to make frambuffer can be added on boot.plist or as kernel flag

so it will be only one boot file and you can specify your frambuffer on boot plist

 

if cant do it will make 30 boot file with final chameleon rc5 to all ati cards

 

it is based on chameleon rc5 rev516 trunk 513

now time for download

Boot.zip

 

and this source code of injector

ati.c.txt

 

please dont ask me what is the use of ati.c :)

 

if you dont know what is it just dont download it ;)

 

Tried this, during the GFX 1.0 update, I got the old you need to turn off your computer using the power button message. and now it doesn't boot :P, I have an XFX 5770 1GB, i used vervet too.

 

It's getting quite frustrating, had my wireless and everything else sorted, just GPU to do ;)

Using this method I hit a black screen. It attempts to use the rom file says Starting Darwin x86 then goes straight to the black screen.

 

 

 

Not sure whats up here.

 

try use this flag

 

PciRoot=1

before appling update make sure that card is readed correct on system profiler as ati readon hd 5770

 

and on pci cards you find aty ,vervet

 

:)

 

 

 

 

 

Hi! Can anybody confirm working of Radeon HD5400? Because i'm gonna to buy a new one :)

I See:

 

But I must be 100% sure :)

 

 

i cant promise you make it works

Finally my Asus EAH5750 (non formula) working perfectly in 64-bit

 

I have used Kabyl method.

At first it was not working but as PingunZ said, i have injected '0x68BE1002' into ATI5000 kext, info.plist

 

 

& then

 

 

Bingo......!

 

I am using DVI (Both A & B port working) with Vervet

 

Thanks all for the help....

 

Tonight I am going to try the same using Crossfire....

 

 

I tried the kexts from the graphics update and the ones from netkas.org. Still no change.

 

 

 

Same situation here.

 

EDIT: I've managed to get it working by injecting device-id 0x68be1002 into ATI5000 kext, info.plist.

your tip on the previous post is for HD 3200 or HD 5450?

 

So, did you ever get the 5450 working with QE/CI ? I've currently running GMA3150 which doesn't have QE/CI, and I'm looking to replace it with a card that has QE/CI and onboard audio chipset for audio over HDMI, but I've don't have very much wattage available from the PSU, so the 5450 looked like the perfect fit if it's working...

I followed your guide Mohamed and got everything working with relative ease for my Sapphire ATi 5770HD 1GB. Dual DVI and HDMI work. QE/CI work. Sleep/shutdown work. All in all I am extremely happy! I can not wait for an updated boot-loader with auto detect and whatnot, however for now I am satisfied. You get a tip of my hat, the nod of approval, and two thumbs way up! :P

Hi guys,

 

i have a MSI ATi Radeon HD5870 1GB Reference Design.

 

I had my card fully (qe/ci/cl) working with aty_init.kext in 32bit-Mode with Framebuffer Uakari.

 

Now i tried this bootloader option (installed from a stick, because i can't afford it to have pc which isn't starting...)

 

And now the problem: I booted with arch=x86_64 -v and got a panic - of course - with Atiradeonx3000.kext.

 

Lines are added, rom file named: 1002_6898.rom (which was my id also before) correctly, strings are added correctly...

 

Any hints?

 

 

Edit: I just browsed through the boot file, there was a line calle "using ati boot file...."

This didn't appear in my startup log...

Did you check the plist in ATIRadeonX3000.kext to see if the card's ID is there? Make sure as well that you choose Uakari from on of the 30 boot files and replace your current boot file your Bootloader uses. And, if all else fails, try AtiFb=Uakari as bootflag. :)

 

Just a thought, but does one really need to add arch=x86_64 to the bootflag? To my knowledge SL boots up in 64bit automatically if your CPU supports it. I myself do not use that particular bootflag and I always default to 64bit.

Hey, some new infos:

 

Of course, my card is listed there, how should it have worked with aty_init?

I DID replace the bootloader file...

 

and when i add the flag AtiFb=Uakari, it even won't show me the panic, because the monitor freezes before.

 

Mysterious, but when i load in 10H555, then the rom gets loaded and Fakesmc detects the chip, but it also fereezes shortly after the graphics, and i get the kernel panic when i press the powerbutton (Process: iopci....kext)

I'll see what I can do! With kabyls boot only the Zonalis framebuffer works for me (3/6 minidps working at full 2560x1440 resolution) - not sure if this applies to yours aswell. (but the GPU fan runs at 100% all the time. Very noisy.)

Will I need to extract the ROM as explained in the first post? Also, will this have any impact on the fan speed compared to kabyls one? I'll try it out tonight or tomorrow, depending, and will post results! Will be interesting to see if all 6 ports work :P

 

 

awesome work!
