WoodroweBones Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 Ok I almost have my laptop running OSX perfectly with a few remaining issues, most notably my GPU and Wireless. For the GPU I installed the RadeonHD.kext and when my laptop boots I get a blank screen (its lit but no image). I tried changing the Backlight setting from 255 to 0 but same result. More interesting is that if I go into System Preferences -> Display I have no displays listed. Also if I go into System Profiler and click on Graphics/Displays I see: Display: Resolution:1024x768 .... Now when my laptop is booted using RadeonHD.kext and I cant see anything on the screen I can still remote in using Teamviewer and can see my desktop and its now giving me proper resolutions but it just wont display on my laptop monitor. I am sooo close to having this going! Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/239340-radeonhdkext-no-display/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
WoodroweBones Posted December 8, 2010 Author Share Posted December 8, 2010 Man its tough to find help! So I did some more research and forced the EDID of my monitor as it didnt seem to be detecting but still the same issue remains Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/239340-radeonhdkext-no-display/#findComment-1598675 Share on other sites More sharing options...
otacon6530 Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 What GPU do you have? I never had the issue of my screen not working, but I will tell your that the only thing RadeonHD.kext corrected was my resolution, but I could have easily just forced the computer to use a different resolution, by altering config files.
