badaxe2 Posted May 12, 2013 Author Share Posted May 12, 2013 I'm a bit bewildred here because accroding to these screengrabs my framebuffer is working fine ? my 7950 is a reference pcb and only seems to be having problems with OpenGL 4 .

k3nny Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 Each port is recognized with ATY,AMD,RadeonFramebuffer. According to the name it is a framebuffer and apparently everything seems to work fine without injecting a specific FB. I don't see the problem here.

Rampage Dev Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 I think that is where he showed loaded framebuffer ? No, that has absolutely nothing to do with this. That is device ID driven and nothing more. Its not being told what FB to load. Each port is recognized with ATY,AMD,RadeonFramebuffer. According to the name it is a framebuffer and apparently everything seems to work fine without injecting a specific FB. I don't see the problem here. Really? Do you understand how AMD/ATI cards work because I think you do not. The card has no framebuffer. ATY,AMD,RadeonFramebuffer is not a framebuffer!

k3nny Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 I never said I understand it fully. What is it then, can you explain it please? Also what difference does it make in the end if he uses one of the known framebuffers?

His card is obviously working, including video acceleration and OpenCL. Can you show an example of what does not work? It is obviously not working. He has not tested OpenCL. Its not working. If you can not understand that the framebuffer is not loaded then I just do not know what to tell you. End of discussion.

fau7i Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 I do remember first couple days with my ATI card. It worked just fine with generic framebuffer (AMD Radeon 7xxx in System Information). I didn't test OpenCL though. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/288486-7950-success-almost/#findComment-1914541 Share on other sites More sharing options...
