morkb Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 Hi nate, if I remember well (too many attempts to get it working!!)...I used this boot loader Chameleon-2.0-RC5-r1083 from here..second post http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php...3754&st=920 but no luck even with edid injected in boot load cheers Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/261912-fixed-no-kext-load-issue/page/4/#findComment-1716513 Share on other sites More sharing options...
oki270 Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 I added few printf's inside Chameleon autoResolution trunk (edid part) and I definitelly get 1366x768 from EDID which is maximal resolution of my monitor. I also added recognition of my chipset (Intel HM55) without which no bios unlocking (and later patching) can be done. I am currently investigating why resolution 1366x768 is not patched in vbios.....

darchive Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 I know that this will not get us QE/CI but it is a good step forward for native resolution : i've just modified Chimera source code to bypass VESA detection : downloaded source w/ terminal : svn co http://forge.voodooprojects.org/svn/chamel...anches/Chimera/ modified /i386/boot2/graphics.c (see the picture) compiled chimera and copied it on a usb key booted up from the usb key => native resolution on OSX (1366x768) but messed up screen... does anyone know what i need to change in this code to get proper timing w/ that resolution ? 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/261912-fixed-no-kext-load-issue/page/4/#findComment-1716563 Share on other sites More sharing options...

darchive Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Forget about modding chimera, As some of us, i have been able to boot w/ all kext loaded WITH QE/CI through a vnc connection so no more chimera modding, it's a waste of time. We all now have to find how to get the internal display to be recognized. BTW, i tried to install Lion, no luck : KP launching the install... (same error w/ SL, the only way i got SL installed is w/ nawcom USB mod, i have to found out why cause not working w/ Lion) Hope we're not too far away from Lion w/ QE/CI on Intel hd only laptop...

ankh_red Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Screen Sharing is needed,.... to use internal display, we need to edit the framebuffer to use lvds... maybe some clue here http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=259705 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/261912-fixed-no-kext-load-issue/page/4/#findComment-1719091 Share on other sites More sharing options...
morkb Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Thinking the same..and I tried last week with snow kext....but now I want to try to load the lion kexts and see if they work in snow...as with snow intelfb.kext I didn't get any usable value...to work on it..so may be if lion kext works in snow (and if i remember well they should )...I will try to edit the framebuffer connector as explained in the link you sent also the intel video bios will be helpful and I cannot extract in a easy way in my laptop as integrated in hp main bios...yesterday night I was able to extract the single bios modules...now I have to find wich one matchs intel vidoe bios with an hex editor..it will take some time... has anyone a intel video bios already extracted?

morkb Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 tried with lion kext...but AppleIntelHDGraphicsFB.kext is different from the one used in the post for hd3000 (it uses the AppleIntelSNBGraphicsFB)...and I cannot extract the PlatformInformationList table....I suppose kext is different and it doesn't have any platforminformation list on it... and i'm not so smart to find it..

oki270 Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 No such thing as _PlatformInformationList in AppleIntelHDGraphicsFB.kext.
