PJALM© Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 Is there a way to get the ASUS EAH4870X2 to work with ML? So far I managed to get proper resolution by adding the dev id to the ATI4800Controller.kext in S/L/E but no QE/CI and screen flickers when moving windows around. Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/282952-asus-ati-hd4870x2-and-ml-108/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
PJALM© Posted September 20, 2012 Author Share Posted September 20, 2012 Ok it looks like the only way to make it work is if the graphics injector in Chameleon supported my video card which it does not.Is there any way to get my sub vendor ID added to chameleon?

fantomas Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 Hi you need to use QE_CI Exotic patch Mountain Lion GM (if you have 10.8 and 10.8.1, the kexts are the same).

PJALM© Posted September 20, 2012 Author Share Posted September 20, 2012 OK that seemed to do the trick, thx... now its working but shows a phantom VGA 800x600 display connected to port2. Is there a way to fix this too? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/282952-asus-ati-hd4870x2-and-ml-108/#findComment-1854218 Share on other sites More sharing options...
fantomas Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 Drag this file out of the folder and place it on the desktop /Library/Preferences/com.apple.windowserver.plist Log out and back in and see if the phantom display is gone. If the .plist you dragged at your desktop is deleted, the system already created a new .plist anyway. You probably have to set a few things back the way they were, but this will not take much time. If the phantom display is still there you may set the .plist back, but you can just delete the .plist anyway.
