I understand they bronzovka properly install the nvidia graphics card in an Intel Hackintosh, then make copy-dump features and integrate them into the AMD hackintosh nvidia info.plist. I did not have as much experience with it, I will inform myself on the internet how to do it

 

thanks for the info, bronzovka, I'll try it :king:

 

 

just for info:

my current chameleon.boot.plist running with EFI string of my graphics card

 

nvidia GTX550TI 3GB string into my chameleon.boot.plist

<key>device-properties</key>
<string>7c0200000100000001000000700200000d00000002010c00d041030a000000000101060000020101060000007fff04001e00000072006f006d002d007200650076006900730069006f006e000000360000004765666f726365204e766964696120475458203535302054492033204742204f70656e474c20456e67696e65205b4546495d22000000400030002c006400650076006900630065005f00740079007000650000000b000000646973706c6179100000004e00560043004100500000001800000004000000000003000400000000000007000000000e0000006e0061006d00650000000b000000646973706c617914000000400030002c006e0061006d0065000000120000004e5644412c446973706c61792d41100000006d006f00640065006c000000220000004765666f726365204e7669646961204754582035353020544920332047420e0000004e00560050004d000000200000000100000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000014000000400031002c006e0061006d0065000000120000004e5644412c446973706c61792d4220000000400031002c0063006f006d00700061007400690062006c00650000000e0000004e5644412c4e564d6163220000005600520041004d002c0074006f00740061006c00730069007a006500000008000000000000c020000000400030002c0063006f006d00700061007400690062006c00650000000e0000004e5644412c4e564d616322000000400031002c006400650076006900630065005f00740079007000650000000b000000646973706c61791c0000006400650076006900630065005f00740079007000650000000f0000004e5644412c506172656e74</string>
</dict>
</plist>

 

 

or should I use this string in my chameleon.boot.plist???

<key>PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x2,0x0)/Pci(0x0,0x0)</key>
<dict>
<key>@0,compatible</key>
<string>NVDA,NVMac</string>
<key>@0,device_type</key>
<string>display</string>
<key>@0,name</key>
<string>NVDA,Display-A</string>
<key>@1,compatible</key>
<string>NVDA,NVMac</string>
<key>@1,device_type</key>
<string>display</string>
<key>@1,name</key>
<string>NVDA,Display-B</string>
<key>NVCAP</key>
<data>
BAAAAAAAAwAEAAAAAAAABwAAAAA=
</data>
<key>NVPM</key>
<data>
AQAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA==
</data>
<key>VRAM,totalsize</key>
<string>0xC0000000</string>
<key>device_type</key>
<string>NVDA,Parent</string>
<key>model</key>
<string>Geforce Nvidia GTX 550 TI 3 GB</string>
<key>name</key>
<string>display</string>
<key>rom-revision</key>
<string>Geforce Nvidia GTX 550 TI 3 GB OpenGL Engine [EFI]</string>
</dict>
</dict>
</plist>

 

if someone has an Intel Hackintosh with a 3GB Nvidia GTX550Ti, and can make a dump of its device-properties.

here the information on how this works

This information I have here entnommen. http://www.insanelym...roperties-dump/

 

start Terminal and type:

 

sudo -s

 

type your password and then type:

 

ioreg -l -w0 -p IODeviceTree | grep device-properties > /dump.txt

 

the dump.txt is now in your root directory

 

is that ok, bronzovka?

spakk, yes . But your string "ioreg -l -w0 -p IODeviceTree | grep device-properties > /dump.txt" - it is only device-properties .

Best copy-dump from IoregistryExplorer for nvidia =) .

Or convert device-properties to info.plist nvidia )

can someone check the vram worth, now I'm confused

 

<key>VRAM,totalsize</key>
<string>0xC0000000</string>

 

which corresponds to my recherche 3072 MB :worried_anim:

thx for information bronzovka

I'll read how to integrated the convert device-properties into info.plist, then I'll be in touch again.

I write in terminal :

ioreg -l -p IODeviceTree | grep ATY

and copy in ATY_Init and working :)

 

is the correct video memory displayed? Please upload your aty.kext as for example.

Example:

in dump.txt :

 

"ATY,MemVendorID" = <0600>

| | | | | "ATY,RevID" = 422401

| | | | | "ATY,memsize" = 1073741824

and i copy strings to in info.plist =)

 

is the correct video memory displayed?

if 0xC0000000 - it is 3 gb memory .

If no effect , you change to :

 

<key>VRAM,totalsize</key>

<string>3221225472</string>

 

 

Or delete it is Vram,totalize in info.plist =)

Spakk, the problem will be solved, but only when we find out what's causing the issue. We already have some strong convictions of what's not doing it:

 

1) It's not the opemu: Bulldozer and Piledriver CPUs do have support for ssse3 instructions, yet even them suffer with the glitches with ATI cards and cannot fully boot with nVidia cards. Remember also that Intel machines, even the ones that have non-ssse3 CPUs (older Pentium-D models) can boot with the current kernels without any issue. Don't be fooled by Console messages reporting errors with the opemu: they're consequences, not causes;

 

2) It's not a CPUID issue: there were reports of extensive usage of AnV's CPUID patching tool, yet it didn't make a difference.

 

All the best!

 

P.S.: i just deleted a post asking help in this topic, despite the very title of the topic says otherwise. The person is online now and i expect no repetition of this. From now on, i won't move this kind of posts to the correct place, but instead delete them without previous notice. Topic titles are to be read.

 

Much appreciated!

I ask anyone who make a AMD kernel :)

 

HD5770 should work without Graphics enabler ? GE=NO solve problem with glitches ?

 

Andy AMD_KERNEL work with 10.8.3 ?

 

(i haven't got ML now for test)

my graphics are very good but no QE / CI

Andy amd_kernel I have successfully tested with Mountain Lion 10.8.4

 

:glare:

hi bronzovka,

after I made this entry in the terminal I got a kernel panic, see zip file:

ioreg IODeviceTree-l-p | grep NIVIDA

System crah after ioreg -l -p IODeviceTree | grep NiViDA.zip

Well, I cant fix my problem ?

Without QE/CI OS X is useless :)

 

then wait until the problem is fixed

We are all eager to look for and find solutions, AMD is not Intel

Spakk, Your video card is currently the Geforce GTX 550i? my asus is a Radeon HD7750 and has many graphical glitches. You had problems with graphical glitches before disabling the QE / CI with this card from Nvidia?

my GTX 550i 3 GB Graphics works without error, the graphics are comparable to similarly as in Windows 7

 

I have all the data in [AMD] Working builds! uploaded by spakk, such as whole extra folder, Extensions folder, dsdt etc, you can use the data as an example. I use including a custom DSDT.aml including Efi string and adapted ATY_Init.kext and patched Nvidia graphics drivers, see my data Install Test 26/27.04.2013

Spakk.

But as you get Crair DSDT from your system?

 

I tried to create my DSDT confguration, extracting through Windows 8 with the AIDA64 software and the DSDTFixer, but could not, gave error.

 

My motherboard is an Asus model: M4A785-M. My system does not work properly power management and why he will not go to sleep mode, I wanted to fix it, this is one of the problems beyond graphics that I want to fix.

 

Thanks for answering me.
