theconnactic Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Thank you, Toleda, for describing the issue better than i could and add the log, which i should have done. It's exactly what i experience with Clover UEFI (1080p monitor connected to DVI port, but it's the same when connected to HDMI), with the difference that unplugging/replugging works in 100% of the cases. Chameleon with GraphicsMode boots successfully every time to 1080p and 1440p. Boot hangs with Clover/CsmVideoDxe installed. Same here. I boot Clover/UEFI, no CSM. Current installed Intel firmware supports 1080p and 1440p as the BIOS setup menus support the native monitor resolutions. Same here, but it might be useful to know that, with CSM enabled in the BIOS, it makes no difference at all: it behaves just the same as no CSM enabled. All the best!

Slice Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Is there a way to add modes for 720p, 1080p and 1440p to refit.conf screen_resolution? Other suggestions? Please, do not mix resolution in Clover GUI and in OSX desktop. There are two different world with different drivers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slice Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Exclude BusSpeedkHz as Clover is able to calibrate it more exact (I think it will be 99790kHz). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toleda Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Please, do not mix resolution in Clover GUI and in OSX desktop. There are two different world with different drivers. That is the point and the problem I'm asking for help to solve. All Clover benefits are useless to HD4000 users if Clover doesn't successfully boot to the Desktop. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex009988 Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 I think some users, who has legacy-Clover, update Clover without updating boot-sectors for no reason at all. I've update my clover to 1360 version and boot sectors as well. It became faster on 6 seconds than it was 24 seconds. Now clover loads from power-button to GUI for 18 seconds.

tluck Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 @slice thanks for reply. i am still running b1208 - which seems to need either BusSpeedkHz or CpuFrequencyMHz ... otherwise it runs too fast and ntp cant seem to keep the clock accurate. will test today with just specify CPUFrequencyMHz set to 2500 to see if the clock can stay on track. I did some limited testing on b1344 and that seems to pick up the CPU speed correctly. However there are 2 problems that need attention: 1) shell crashes with an assertion 2) memory is reported as 3 banks (bogus)... and system seems to think it has 8.13 GB of memory - not good. from b1208 - good. $ cat mem-good.txt Memory Slots: ECC: Disabled BANK 0/DIMM0: Size: 4 GB Type: DDR3 Speed: 1333 MHz Status: OK Manufacturer: Ramaxel Technology Part Number: RMT3020EC58E9F1333A Serial Number: 040206030901010B BANK 1/DIMM0: Size: 4 GB Type: DDR3 Speed: 1333 MHz Status: OK Manufacturer: Ramaxel Technology Part Number: RMT3020EC58E9F1333A Serial Number: 04030C0D0509030A from b1344 - bad $ cat mem-bad.txt Memory Slots: ECC: Disabled BANK0/DIMM0: Size: 4 GB Type: DDR3 Speed: 1333 MHz Status: OK Manufacturer: Ramaxel Technology Part Number: RMT3020EC58E9F1333A Serial Number: 040206030901010B BANK1/DIMM0: Size: 4 GB Type: DDR3 Speed: 1333 MHz Status: OK Manufacturer: 443 Part Number: RMT3020EC58E9F1333 Serial Number: 43CD593A BANK0/DIMM1: Size: 4 GB Type: DDR3 Speed: 1333 MHz Status: OK Manufacturer: Ramaxel Technology Part Number: RMT3020EC58E9F1333A Serial Number: 04030C0D0509030A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xpamamadeus Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Regarding the problem theconnactic discussed of getting to a 1080p (HD4000 HDMI) or 1440p (HD4000 DisplayPort) Desktop with Clover UEFI, some additional information: My log shows the problem: 0:318 0:178 Available graphics modes for refit.conf screen_resolution: 0:318 0:000 Curr. Mode = 2, Modes = 3, FB = D0000000, FB size=0x3FF0000 0:318 0:000 - Mode 0: 1024x768 PixFmt = 8bit BGR, PixPerScanLine = 1024 0:318 0:000 - Mode 1: 640x480 PixFmt = 8bit BGR, PixPerScanLine = 640 0:318 0:000 - Mode 2: 800x600 PixFmt = 8bit BGR, PixPerScanLine = 800 0:318 0:000 SetScreenResolution: 2560x1440 - not found! 0:318 0:000 SetMaxResolution: found best mode 0: 1024x768 - set reFit selects 1024x768 which my monitor does not support. A huge Apple logo shows up (wrong resolution) and the Desktop appears with multiple images. An unplug/replug works 50% of the time with HDMI and 10% or the time with DP. Usually a reboot is required. Chameleon with GraphicsMode boots successfully every time to 1080p and 1440p. There is no option in my P8Z77-I Deluxe BIOS for CSM. Boot hangs with Clover/CsmVideoDxe installed. I boot Clover/UEFI, no CSM. Current installed Intel firmware supports 1080p and 1440p as the BIOS setup menus support the native monitor resolutions. Is there a way to add modes for 720p, 1080p and 1440p to refit.conf screen_resolution? Other suggestions? I did some testing. using dvi on hd 4000 clover boots ok and all wotks perfect. using hdmi on hd 4000 and nothing plugged into gtx 660 osx restart and uefi enable csm itself after restart. now again i disable csm in uefi and continue using hdmi on hd 4000 but plugged dvi monitor into gtx 660 it works without problems but with one catch,clover gui start on gtx 660 but osx start and all works prefect it always set the right 1080p res on both hdmi and dvi and i dont have to replug anything. boot logs attached. BTW i am using dsdt patched with your edits for hdmi audio and it works just great. Arhiva 2.zip 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tluck Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 i have been using b1208 successfully (after fixing the CPU frequency issue) on my Lenovo T420. very cool -can select/boot OSX and Win7 with native UEFI. i tried several builds since that have the "new CLOVER" directory but there are 2 problems: 1) shell crashes with an assertion 2) memory is reported as 3 banks (bogus) ... reports 12 in About This Mac and activity monitor seems to think it has 8.13 GB of memory vs 8.00 - not good. from b1208 - good. $ cat mem-good.txt Memory Slots: ECC: Disabled BANK 0/DIMM0: Size: 4 GB Type: DDR3 Speed: 1333 MHz Status: OK Manufacturer: Ramaxel Technology Part Number: RMT3020EC58E9F1333A Serial Number: 040206030901010B BANK 1/DIMM0: Size: 4 GB Type: DDR3 Speed: 1333 MHz Status: OK Manufacturer: Ramaxel Technology Part Number: RMT3020EC58E9F1333A Serial Number: 04030C0D0509030A from b1344 - bad $ cat mem-bad.txt Memory Slots: ECC: Disabled BANK0/DIMM0: Size: 4 GB Type: DDR3 Speed: 1333 MHz Status: OK Manufacturer: Ramaxel Technology Part Number: RMT3020EC58E9F1333A Serial Number: 040206030901010B BANK1/DIMM0: Size: 4 GB Type: DDR3 Speed: 1333 MHz Status: OK Manufacturer: 443 Part Number: RMT3020EC58E9F1333 Serial Number: 43CD593A BANK0/DIMM1: Size: 4 GB Type: DDR3 Speed: 1333 MHz Status: OK Manufacturer: Ramaxel Technology Part Number: RMT3020EC58E9F1333A Serial Number: 04030C0D0509030A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toleda Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 I did some testing. it always set the right 1080p res on both hdmi and dvi and i dont have to replug anything. boot logs attached. Thanks for the tests. Your logs say: 0:532 0:012 SetScreenResolution: 1920x1080 - already set and 0:543 0:012 SetScreenResolution: 1920x1080 - already set Nothing about Modes, interesting. Do you use refit.conf/screen_resolution 1920x1080? If not, what config are you using? EDID? VBIOS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you use refit.conf/screen_resolution 1920x1080? If not, what config are you using? EDID? VBIOS? Yes i use this in refit conf but it not important if i set it or not,it always work like this. i get it working like this only when i update my gtx 660 with UEFI gop compatible bios and latest beta bios for my mobo wich gives me option to completly disable CSM. I think,but i am not an expert how this UEFI think works,but i know that u have gtx 570 that cannot support UEFI GOP. Other think what i allready write but i not sure if i get how it works for me. I cannot run CSM disabled with only HD 4000,it needs GTX 660 with connected monitor or mobo just restart after first loading osx and load defaults wich are enabled CSM. When i set CSM disabled i get 1920x1080 in bios too!!and both cards show bios on their screen. Its strange behavior this CSM,and windows 8 whql s..t on this latest bigabyte beta bios but it work great with Clover. One more think to report,with old f14 bios release that dont have all windows 8 features i cannot have csmvideo in clover drivers becouse i get black screen,but on new beta bios Clover boots ok with it or without it.

Maniac10 Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 People, any RAM related issue please report it here. @toleda: did you activate the VBios patch? When I was booting with CloverEFI that was all I needed to get 1920x1080. Now booting in UEFI mode I need the CsmVideoDxe driver as well. I don't need to set the resolution on refit.conf. If you're using CloverGrowerPro you can check like this: $sudo clovergrowerpro -s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's strange. Intel HD 4000 should supports GOP. i.e. you can disable CSM to gain benefit from Ultra/Super Fast boot. Don't be confused between 'Fast Boot' and 'Ultra/Super Fast Boot'. With 'Fast Boot', usually you still have an option to have CSM enabled. Selecting 'Ultra/Super Fast Boot' will automatically disable CSM, or vice versa. I guess that you have had problem with CsmVideoDxe driver because CSM wasn't disabled at that time. When you totally disable it or choose 'Ultra Fast Boot', CsmVideoDxe doesn't make effect anymore even it's still in drivers64UEFI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
68x Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 I am trying to get my SSDT loaded. It is currently located in /EFI/CLOVER/ACPI/patched/SSDT.aml I am using MBP9,2 as my SMBIOS. I have these settings under "ACPI" in /EFI/CLOVER/config.plist: DropOemSSDT=Yes GenerateIvyStates=No I only get the default state (1.8 Ghz) and the X86PlatformPlugin.kext is not loaded (I have checked with ioreg explorer). I am only able to get sandy bridge power management by using a MBP8,x SMBIOS. Is there any proper way to get Ivy Bridge power management? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're using CloverGrowerPro you can check like this: LoadVBiios results in a black screen on boot. Boot hangs with CsmVideoDxe. I have not gotten to CloverGrowerPro. I'm still using Clover/USB. To boot off USB, I select USB UEFI/Clover in the Asus BIOS Boot Screen (1440p), get the Clover UI at 1024x768, select the boot volume and hope for a Desktop. I tried the time=0 to avoid Clover UI and that fails to get to the Desktop as well with the same issue. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
