hi

tested and not working...

 

all i got is a black screen!

 

I changed now the graphic mode to:

 

<key>Graphics Mode</key>

<string>1920x1200x32</string>

 

using VMWare, directly on the Hardisk where snow is installed,

since i cant boot and edit it,

its ok or i have to repair/rebuild permissions?

 

I see that i dont have ATI5000Controller.Kext?

its normal???

(before i make the test i already installed Graphic updater....

have to install again??)

 

 

hope in some help.

thx again :o

you're not getting multi outputs whilst using the Vervet FB? you have to keep in mind that as posted by Kabyl in hist first post, certain combinations of ports may not work.

This is good, but what led Kabyl true for Windows and totally unsuitable for maс-driver.

 

http://www.apple.com/ru/macpro/features/graphics.html

Look here and think about the number, type and location of the output ports.

Update:

 

changed only:

 

<key>Graphics Mode</key>

<string>1920x1200x32</string>

 

and now IT WORK!

Cant believe! :o

 

tested on 1 DVI port only, i'll do more test on other ports!

i'm really happy, tooooo!

 

need to test hdmi and multiple monitor!!

 

i'll post result later.

 

bye and thx for all!

 

 

 

looks like results with cinebench are really low...

screens attached

 

first 3 are with I7 920 default settings

 

last 2 are with I7 920 overclocked @3.2

 

what do you think?

I still have to check if there is a bios update for my gigabyte HD 5870

better to check on gigabyte site or on another site?

 

 

 

 

ps: donation'll come later, of course!! :D

Card: Gainward HD4850 Golden Sample 1GB

Framebuffer: Cardinal

Working configurations:

Dual monitor:

DVI-VGA+DVI-VGA

Single monitor:

DVI-VGA on port 1 (Next to the motherboard)

DVI-VGA on port 2

 

Both my monitors are VGA so I can't test DVI connections. Removing 1 DVI-VGA adapter with only 1 monitor, I've got a black screen.

And how much 5870 is more expensive 5770? :rolleyes:

 

nice result...looks like my 5870 suck :D

 

My 5870 is a Gigabyte HD 5870 - "GV-R587D5-1GB-B"

what about flasing one of these bios:

techPowerUp Video Bios ???

 

 

the newest bios version is this:

http://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/75059/G...024.100416.html

 

but i see that its for "GV-R587UD-1GD/F6" and i have "GV-R587D5-1GB-B"

I think i dont have any problem using this bios, the model is almost the same.

 

the question is i'll get better perfromance?

 

what do you think?

I have found it:

 

ATi Eyefinity Technology

- Support up to 3 monitor outputs simultaneously and independently.(one of the outputs must be DisplayPort.)

 

Evrica?

 

"the question is i'll get better perfromance?

I think your DSDT is bad.

I have found correct decisions for DSDT in the my head. About eureka, I to that can therefore at me HDMI don't work.

here is a report with IORegistryExplorer,

Gigabyte HD 5870 , and i see its set to "Uakari",

maybe setting with Vervet i'll get better result?

 

have to see how to change it, lol :(

(i'm a noob :( )

 

Anyway i'm looking to patch the DSDT.

nice result...looks like my 5870 suck :unsure:

 

My 5870 is a Gigabyte HD 5870 - "GV-R587D5-1GB-B"

what about flasing one of these bios:

 

I am not sure if a different BIOS would help, but if you do try some there is no need to flash it, you can use the "UseAtiRom = Yes" option in your boot.plist file and place the ROM (with the corrected filename) in the /Extra directory.

thx for your answer!

 

here are my hd 5870 info:

 

Model:

Gigabyte HD 5870 - GV-R587D5-1GB-B

 

1002-6898

 

pci vendor id: 1002

Devide Id: 6898

rlease date: Sep 23 2009

 

Bios Version: 012.014.000.005.035264

 

so:

- UseAtiRom = Yes in apple....boot.plist

- my hd 5870 rom file

 

i exported my bios and i have the file "Cypress.bin", can use it or i have to

rename it to "1002_6898.bin"?

 

 

anyway....i still need the "boot" into the root of the hardisk, correct?

 

thx again!

tested and nothing changed...

i check around and using the rom file its different,

and its not like you posted...

 

i think i have to try another method to make it work!

I too score about 30 in cinebench with a 5870 and as I said before I think it should score around 50. Anyway until this will be figured out I really happy to be just be able to use it, even if underpowered ;)

5870/HDMI Audio/64 Bit

 

After weeks of KPs, black screens and fans at full song over three different HD5XXX cards, the Sapphire Vapor X Overclocked HD 5870 works for me in Snow Leopard thanks to Kabyl's boater. No ROM files, no Framebuffers, No strings, just Graphics Enabler=Yes.

 

 

The lspci follows and the ioreg file is attached.

Fresh install of Snow Leopard 10.6.3 on the GA-H55N-USB3 mini ITX motherboard using tonymacx86's [url=&quot;http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/&quot;]#####[/url] ATI 5XXX-3 on the HDMI port. Installed the 10.6.4 and Graphics 1.0 Updates. Rebooted with [url=&quot;http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/&quot;]#####[/url] -3, installed the DSDT (with the HDMI edits from tmonkgol GFX0/HDAU), Chameleon RC5 Rev 516 and Kabyl's boot file. Ejected the [url=&quot;http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/&quot;]#####[/url] disc and rebooted with a fully enabled 5870. It boots from any port in either the 32 or 64 bit kernels and supports three displays. One problem, it boots with a display port to HDMI adapter, however, when the system goes to full resolution, the video signal disappears (could be the adapter). Since on board audio (ALC892) isn't supported in Snow Leopard, HDMI audio works perfectly. The Sound PrefPanel shows Built-in HDMI or Built-in DisplayPort audio output.

Maybe you can open an own thread for that and go back ontopic here so Kabyl can go on with his work on this booter?

Club 3D Radeon HD 5850 Overclocked Edition (identical construction to Powercolor Radeon 5850 PCS+) without changing any framebuffer in plist, just set Graphicsenabler to "yes", works with both DVI, can`t test HDMI or Displayport.

 

Thanks Kabyl for this, made my installation quite easier.

 

Almost forgotten, here is my ioreg:

 

iMac.ioreg.zip

Hi! I'm a cartri's bios user on an EP45-UD3P and I bought an ATI Branded HD5770 tonight... Popped it in my hackintosh and it booted without the need of anything else... BUT, I only get scores of 22 fps in cinebench and about 55seconds in smallluxGPU... Any idea why??

 

Will using the boot file in the thread solve my problems?? BTW, do I just have to replace my chameleon one and that's it or should modify my com.apple.Boot.plist??

 

 

Thanks a lot!!

My HD 5870 is booting successfully with Kaybl's booter; Uakari is loaded automatically. When I enter AtiFb=Uakari at the boot prompt, my system gets to

 

kernel DSMOS has arrived

kernel ** Device in slot: SLOT--1 **

 

and freezes. There is nothing in the system log.

 

The same problem occurs with each FrameBuffer name I've tried. Any suggestions?
