GoGas Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 New to HAckintosh and patching. Looking to to try and patch a Kext for Mountain Lion ( ATI3800Controller.kext) as I have a ATI3600 (PCI-E) card and wanted to try it. I have the PNPID as 0x95981002 as required and I am following this guide http://wiki.osx86pro...t_Patching_List . My problem is that the info.plist is clearly for ATI3800 so may work but does not contain a section <key>Device Name</key> followed by a <string>0xABCD0EFF</string> for me to replace. Am I completely off track and that this is not feasible or of so how do I try and trick the kext to be used for my device (if I need to add a section where should I do this)? Do I need to change all the references to from ATI3800 to ATI3600 Thanks Update: have found a string that is 1002,0x1234 so worked out it is this. Newer issue, found Chimera supports lots of AT 3600 but not the specific Device ID e.g. supports 9589 and wondering how I change or inject my ID Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoGas Posted April 22, 2013 Author Share Posted April 22, 2013 Thanks. Can I do this after install and the installation will still find it on next boot provided Device Id is correct even though it is 3600 and the file refers to 3800? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BALDY_MAN Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 yes. it should as your adding your device to the white list in the kext. its worth a try. ive not looked in to your card but i have added my device id to AGPM Kext Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoGas Posted April 30, 2013 Author Share Posted April 30, 2013 Thanks - tried kext it but did not work - even if ID is in both files. Oddly using Graphics Enabler ifI set screen in Chameleon Wizard to 1680x1050 it uses 1400x900 and yet if set to 1400x900 uses 1150 x850 - weird seems to use one resolution lower Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
