Hey guys,

 

as the title says I'm trying to get my Graphic Card to work. For that I followed mucha`s guide http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=252061.

Following his guide I got those results.

 

ATOM BIOS Rom:

Out of the results my own personality code would be

02 00 00 00 40 00 00 00 09 01 00 00 12 00 00 07 LVDS

10 00 00 00 10 00 00 00 00 01 00 00 00 10 01 01 VGA

00 08 00 00 00 02 00 00 00 01 00 00 10 01 02 02 HDMI

I edited the ATI Framebuffer as it says in the guide but ended up with no changes. I'm running Snow Leopard 10.6.0 and chameleon Bootloader Chameleon v2.0-RC4 r684 on an Acer Aspire 5738G with Intel Core2Duo T6600 Notebook

I would really appreciate it if you could help me

 

thanks

To make yr video card work u need to update to 10.6.6. or 10.6.7. Read this topic, will help u a little bit.

 

http://www.insanelym...howtopic=254906

 

 

 

I updated my Snow Leopard now to 10.6.7, but now I get a kernel panic during boot. Luckily I backed up up my snow leopard partition before I updated and restored the partition. What did I do wrong can you help me?

 

here's a screenshot of the kernel panic

from Muchas post take the appended file "birds.rtf"

It contains the original hex codes of all the 4xxx framebuffers. Just copy-paste into the hex editor search field

 

so the thing that needed to change is the framebuffers not the ati4600.kext rite? Cause i got the internal lvds graphic when i plugged in to my hdmi.. it detect my lvds as hdmi input..

I can boot now into 10.6.6

I copied the mach_kernel from the working partition and replaced it with the one

on the updated partition and now it's working. I'm trying now again to edit my framebuffer.

I'll report later if it worked.

boot in safe mode (I hope u know how to do that) and use kext utility to fix permission (Always use kext utility to fix permission when u change any kext).

Did u use kext helper to move video kext to S/L/E?

and would u plz find out the Device ID of yr card?

I did what you told me and used kext utility to fix permissions but still get the same error messages after that I loaded both kexts the atiframebuffer.kext and the ati4600controller.kext manually via the terminal and got the following results:
