Tried the latest kernel with flags : npci=0x2000 colors=32 GraphicsInjector=Yes, got a white screen with mouse pointer in correct resolution.

I guess Radeon HD6970 still isn't compatible.

 

The only way I can boot with this kernel is when I delete the ATI6000.kext and use a boot flag GraphicsEnabler=No.

 

Or should I use different boot flags?

You should patch the framebuffer of the ATI6000Controller.kext

See the clover instructions thread on how to do it.

I have a Asus Radeon HD6450 which by default also was incompatible.

A patch later it was compatible ;)

I used MyHack and got a retail ML installer and replaced the kernel for the installer with the latest kernel thats on here (mach_10.8.3_fixed_rc4) and installed ML retail, and then used something to get the needed few kexts. I removed the ATI7000controller.kext since it's artifact city, but I'm really looking forward to new kernels. I'm using the FX-8350, and a Radeon HD 7870.

Hi all !

In mach_kernel I deleted "ssse3, avx, sse4_1, sse4_2, cache_tlb", added only emulators opemu with emulating "ssse3" and "sysenter", and tested on real iMac !

Resultats:

 

1) same without artifacts ati !

2) i run program "maxima" - panic <- same how on amd !

3) adobe cs6 normal running . 

4) 32 bit program's is normally opened .

 

if kernel without opemu.c, program "maxima" normally open !!! 

Then it is problem opemu.c ! 

Maybe mistake emulating "sysenter" or other ...

If on amd processors artifacts ati - it is maybe only driver don't support with amd processor... Or problem only system ...

I see in MMXCore.plugin , i found one - it is checking support intel. if amd  then it is go to intel and don't running CS6 on amd .

I patched it is plugin and normal working CS6 . I no sure ... =)))

Hey Bronya thanks for the work. It is suitable for Lion too? I presume it is, so I can switch back to my AMD machine, can someone confirm it is? Many thanks. :)

Hello ! MMXCore.plugin ? 

It is for CS6 .

Bronya!

 

Once again amazing work!

If anyone wants to use an Adobe Suite, rather use CC, so far only Illustrator seems to be a problem. 

 

Photoshop CC (was a problem with MMXCore.plugin on CS6 unless Updated), Bridge CC (was a problem with MMXCore.plugin on CS6 unless copied from updated Photoshop), InDesign CC, Premiere Pro CC (was a problem on CS6) and Dreamweaver CC, all work out the box

Fresh install with Athlon II X2 on 10.8.4 Using Bronya's latest kernel. Boots much faster than previous kernels. Everything is detected correctly. Graphics still glitchy but I'm still looking for a fix on HD5450 ( 0x68E11002 )

Unfortunately the latest kernel (10.8.3-rc5)  gave me a KP due to these errors:

_Debugger + 0xa4
_consume_panic_args + 0x17d
_panic + 0x4f
_panic_trap + 0x34b
_return_from_trap +0xcd
_machine_boot_info + 0x160
_panic_i386_backtrace + 0x31f  --->  ???

weirdly, I got the i386 error even I booted the osx with arch=x86_64

Here it is... the new kernel.

It should be more efficient in performing instruction emulation (First SSSE3 pass, then SSE3 pass in 3 steps as this is more efficient, next sysenter, then monitor/mwait skipp for those without SSE3 and last fisttp to fistp replacement for those without SSE3).

It also has fisttp to fistp on-the-fly in memory replacement (added it in opemu) for those without SSE3.

Source diff included. ;)

Test please :D and report back too ;)

still reboots before goin to  verbose mode  :S
