ATI Radeon HD6000, HD5000 and HD4000 series support in Chameleon

[FKA]

i don't know what is valv's booter with CPU PM enabled, i remember that in installation of snow i try almost all bootloader, but no one has gone, so i use the manual bootloader in the tutorial of Mohamed

http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=227592 for amd and it's gone...

 

OK maybe try the anval booter, it is listed on Mohamed's guide and you can find it here.

 

I don't know too much about the AMD side of this booter so you will have to read the thread.

But if you use this boot file you will need to add to com.apple.boot.plist:

 

<key>GenerateCStates</key>

<string>Yes</string>

<key>GeneratePStates</key>

<string>Yes</string>

<key>PatchKernel</key>

<string>Yes</string>

 

I can't say this will definitely help you but it is well worth a try!

It's all very simple, those who don't know what they are doing can leave this stuff well enough alone, this isn't for them.

If they can't even understand that then there isn't much that anyone else can do to ram that fact home much less help them.

Kabyl didn't ask for "anyone" or "everyone" to test this, it was implied very strongly that only people who were knowledgeable

and methodical make the effort.

 

Well as you might understand I do not agree with you at all. This is not a club for the cool guys we share stuff here! So when you post make sure you tell how to use it, simple as that.

Give it a rest mate! - Kabyl clearly asks for testers in the first post, not whingers like you!

 

As I said to you before: once this is a completed project, then it will be open to all, simple to use and fully explained.

 

It's not about being a club for the 'cool guys'. It's about people with an average knowledge of this scene helping those who are developing code for us ALL to use!

 

I don't see you whining on the 'How to boost the boost the OSX boot process' thread.

Possible it could be the most ground breaking thread in a while and I see no point by point idiot proof guide. And 95% of users here (me included) will struggle to follow it.

But for sure if it ever becomes a final product a lot of people could benefit ...

 

If it wasn't for the developers developing and users giving USEFUL feedback, there wouldn't be anything to share.

 

Or do you really believe all this stuff just magics itself into 'user friendly' existence!

I just set up a Sapphire radeon hd 5670 and it's working great via DVI with this boot loader. Thank you kabyl, trauma, (netkas)

 

Some notes:

 

1.

I think it'd be good if post #1 emphasised that you may need to configure the "Graphics Mode" key&value in order to have the DVI port not go blank until the cable is reconnected. At first I thought my config was not working when it was simply this issue.

Contrary to post #33, I didn't have to configure my display's native resolution (2560x1600) in order to fix this; configuring chameleon with lower VESA supported resolutions such as 1920x1440, 1600x1200 worked for me.

 

2. Would be nice to add the full device name for this sapphire card:

3. This card has 3 ports: dual link dvi, hdmi, and displayport. All 3 work during VGA I/O, but only the dvi port works when the framebuffer driver is loaded (black screen otherwise). Would appreciate any hints on what I might try to get the other two working as well.

but i have already the AnVAL5.0.5...because i use the tutorial of Mhoamed...

[Martuzki]

what about the Radeon 4570 Mobility?

[FKA]

i don't know what is valv's booter with CPU PM enabled

 

Do you have in boot.plist:

 

<key>GenerateCStates</key>

<string>Yes</string>

<key>GeneratePStates</key>

<string>Yes</string>

 

?

 

If you do, you should look at this: http://www.projectosx.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=564

 

The remove of IRQ from Device (_PIC ... is also a fix for a stutter issue when CPU Power management is running!

 

Please note if you add IRQ to HPET device it is more commonly:

 

IRQNoFlags ()

{2}

IRQNoFlags ()

{8}

 

As apposed to

 

IRQNoFlags ()

{0}

IRQNoFlags ()

{8}

 

But this can be checked by looking at 'IOInterupSpecifieres' in IOregexplorer (google for download and is part of XCode tools.)

i.e. If I set 0 and 8 , I can see that the OS is using 2 and 8 regardless. So I set 2 and 8 in DSDT!

 

Note: IRQ values in IOregExplorer are in Hex but are in Decimal in DSDT!

Is it just me or is this getting very off topic?

i try to install the anval boot 5.1.4, and i add this:

<key>GenerateCStates</key>

<string>Yes</string>

<key>GeneratePStates</key>

<string>Yes</string>

<key>PatchKernel</key>

<string>Yes</string>

to the boot.plist, but it's the same, i make another example if i open xcode, and i go to developer documentation, the xcode crash and exit, why??or if when i open the first time safari that there is the animation presentation safari crash....please help...i don't do the part of IRQ because i haven't understood it...

 

i see that the system block every some second, i'm looking the activity monitor and the number of thread for example or the cpu use graphic, blocks for some second...block the all system...damn...any idea?

 

p.s. i really need developer documentation of xcode and wanna fix it please help

 

sorry for the off topic

Sorry to dump this back on Mohamed but I think you need to move these questions back to his install thread.

I don't know enough about AMD installs and it sounds like you have something fundamentally wrong with yours, unrelated to your graphics card!

 

Cheers and good luck

[bbeepp]

I have two questions:

 

1. Is ATI 5450 supported in this Chameleon? Card id is - 68f9

 

2. Should I use "UseAtiROM" com.apple.boot.plist with ROM image or it has another purpose?

[wastez]

Does this work on an amd system? Would be really interessting!!!

With memory detection it hangs looking at memory slots that aren't there!!

 

Some times only 1 extra slot sometimes 2, sometimes slot 4 or 5 or both sometimes slot 7?

 

SPD[0] (size): 176 @0x54
Slot: 4 Type 0 0MB (EPROM) 1286MHz Vendor=NoName
      PartNo= SerialNo=8D2E19AC
SPD[0] (size): 176 @0x55
Slot: 5 Type 0 0MB (EPROM) 1286MHz Vendor=NoName
      PartNo= SerialNo=8D2E19AC 

 

Only slot 0, 1, 2 ,3 are filled (4 slots in total on this MB.)

 

Also the last SPD read say's size 176 - the other 3 are 255?

 

I have always had a memory error shown in System Profiler with MSI boards, during diagnostics check. Maybe this is the problem?

 

Power On Self-Test:

 Last Run:	09/02/2011 00:12
 Result:	Failed
 Failure Type:	Memory
 Memory Slots:	DIMM1/BANK0, DIMM2/BANK1, DIMM3/BANK2, DIMM4/BANK3

 

Secondly:- System UUID shown above is not registered in System Profiler. Although i think that in system profiler is correct (checking in windows now) and is not taken from EN0 Mac address!

 

UUID shown in bdmesg is correct but not shown in System Profiler.

 

Any help appreciated!

I did some more testing with the various AtiConfig choices for my 5670, and found that Uakari seems to be the best choice. Summary of working ports:

Uakari: DVI, HDMI, no displayport

Baboon: DVI, no HDMI, no displayport

Eulemer: no DVI, no HDMI, no displayport

Vervet: no DVI, no HDMI, displayport

 

Obviously this is not ideal as I haven't been able to get all 3 ports working at once.

 

I would hope there would be a better way to figure out the optimal config port setting instead of playing adventure with the 31 different choices. I note that netkas's ATY_Init injects display-connect-flags and connector-type for the relevent card ports; would be nice if these could just be set to control the working ports. But do these actually work or are they read-only ioregistry values that are only controlled by the AtiConfig name?

 

For now, my updated ati.c change for the sapphire 5670 is:

Additionally, since this card includes HDMI audio, I added hda-gfx entries to my DSDT for the card's address 0 and address 1.

(I think it would be nice for chameleon to includes these automatically when it sees an ATI audio controller at PCI slot .1)

 

However, even after adding the two hda-gfx entries, I get the AppleHDA driver attached under the HDAU node but no HDMI audio shows up under my audio settings. Do I have to hack AppleHDA as well for this to work? My ioregistry for the graphics & audio are attached.

Thank you very much for your work on this. Upgraded to a Sapphire Radeon HD 5770 and both DVI ports worked on first bootup using the Chameleon 2 RC5 Unofficial Package Installer and Kabyl's boot file.

 

Cinebench 11.5 gives 29-30 fps with a Core i7 920 processor and SMproductname set to MacPro3,1 in smbios.plist. Still looking into C- and P-state settings.

Do not set your model to Macpro3,1 otherwise you will not get the right profile for your processor.

You have to set your SMproductname to Macpro5,1 or Macpro4,1 to get the nehalem profile....

 

Here is my complete Extra folder with fully editet DSDT and fakesmc with plugins....

I've noticed that you need to have an HDMI monitor that is HDMI audio capable connected before you see the hdau option in System Profiler/ Audio

Thank you for that, I'll give Macpro5,1 a go.

Yes, and so I tested thru my denon HDMI AVR and attached display. The ioregistry info I posted was when that HDMI connection was my only active connection.

I know that some 5770 users have reported working HDMI audio. I'm wondering whether there were any extra steps taken such as rolling back AppleHDA to 10.6.3, or injecting a layout-id, or explicitly configuring an HDMI pathmap (should auto-generate I believe).

I'm using tmongkols patched appleHDA for alc888 (199f12) but have had HDMI workling also with stock AppleHDA.

 

I have only added hdau under GFX (address 0) entry in DSDT at address 1 like you have.

I wonder if some cards have different codecs? I can't remember is there any device id listed with lspci for your hda device?

 

EDIT - here's my hadu device in lspci:

 

01:00.1 Audio device [0403]: ATI Technologies Inc Unknown device [1002:aa58]

From a few posts back:

01:00.1 Audio device [0403]: ATI Technologies Inc Redwood HDMI Audio [Radeon HD 5600 Series] [1002:aa60]

So slightly different pci id. Also my HDMI codec is:

 

Codec: ATI R6xx HDMI

Address: 0

AFG Function Id: 0x1 (unsol 0)

Vendor Id: 0x1002aa01

Subsystem Id: 0x00aa0100

per ALSA info (/proc/asound/card1/codec#0) under linux.

Sorry I didnt look back! also I havent looked in AppleHDA. Is aa60 listed? have you tried fluffing devid 58 aa or adding correct 60 aa in DSDT?

 

EDit - not being flippant I am also looking.
