derpuma Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Hey guys! I hope I could get some help for a solution to get my "XFX 1GB D5 X HD6870 Dual Fan" fully supported under 10.8.2! See the screenshot of my SYS-Profiler and you will see that I did not get rid of the "Radeon HD 6xxx" detection in Mountain Lion 10.8.2. I tried all kind of things to bring it back to work with Adobe After Effects, therefor it should be detected as a "Radeon HD 6870" in SYS-Profiler. My Board is a Gigabyte EP-45 DS3. What I have already done is: I set the chameleon.org.boot.plist to ATI config, Duckweed, Ati Ports 4 (also tried 5). Tried this with GraphicsEnabler=yes and =no! Tried to add the Vendor ID and Devide ID to AMDRadeonAccelerator.kext and ATI6000Controller.kext! Tried to boot up with the ATISupport.kext, ATIFramebuffer.kext, ATI6000Controller.kext in S/L/E which i took from my 10.8.0 lion Installation Boot Stick. Nill and Nothing did it so far. No Duckweed is recognized... All was fine under 10.7.5! Could someone give me a little help? I also spend my Graphics Kext Files from S/L/E and you may have an Eye on them? If you could take a couple of minutes for me that would be fantastic...

derpuma Posted October 28, 2012 Author Share Posted October 28, 2012 Elodea Elodea with the original 10.8.2 kext or with modified kexts? @artur-pt Gibba and the kext from here did not do it. Update: Elodea also did not change anything!

derpuma Posted October 30, 2012 Author Share Posted October 30, 2012 SOLVED! What a feck! This dam device id was the Problem and did not make it to recognize the ATI Card! After I deleted the ID which was made for Ehternet Appstore, Icloud Fix the GFX showed up in SYS Profiler as it should!
