Enabling HD4000?

[Slash and Burn]

Does anyone have any idea on how to enable the HD4000 on Mavericks? The ML 10.8.3-10.8.4 HD3000/4000 kexts don't seem to work, and I can't find any others. Could someone point me in the right direction? Thanks in advance 

 

EDIT: I am using the latest Chameleon bootloader.

You should be able to get it working OOB with Macmini6,1 system definitions. (Might need GraphicsEnabler=No or else =Yes)

 

(Macmini6,2 should also work)

[Slash and Burn]

Alright, I'll try it now.

 

EDIT: Doesn't look like Macmini6,1 worked, animations are still buggy and flashy (am I even thinking of the right thing? probably should've clarified more in the original post).

What is your GraphicsEnabler bootflag?

Do you have full resolution?

Is the video kext loaded in System Report?

Did you make any changes to the factory kexts for Intel HD? (If you did you will need to reverse them)

 

What is your HD4000 Vendor/Device ID?

[Slash and Burn]

-GraphicsEnabler=No (GraphicsEnabler=Yes results in being stuck at Bluetooth, I tried both)

-Full resolution of 1920x1080

-No, it is not loaded. I moved and backed up all video kexts in order to boot, so which of those should I use? (now that I think about it, that's probably my problem )

-I did not make any changes to the factory kexts other than move them, I am reinstalling them using Kext Utility now.

 

-Vendor: Intel (0x8086), Device ID: (0x0162)

I installed the three IntelHD4000 kexts/bundles and booted with GraphicsEnabler=No for nice, not-horrible animations. Thanks!

So it's working? Where did you get the kexts from? Were they factory Mavericks kexts or from Internet?

[Slash and Burn]

They were factory kexts, but apparently I broke it... I tried changing my video memory from 96M to a higher number and now, no matter how many times I reinstall factory kexts, animations are still weird, even with the original 96M (I made it 96M because of some message during installation telling me that only 32, 64, and 96 are supported). Anyone know how to fix this? This solution worked once and now it just doesn't want to...

[Slash and Burn]

Let me simplify my question a bit:

 

Does anyone know how to get my AppleIntelHD4000Graphics.kext to load?

 

EDIT: I put the kext and bundles in /Extra/Extensions and it seemed to work. My graphics still show up as "Display 64 MB of Shared System Memory", is there a.) any way to make it show up as the correct graphics (GraphicsEnabler=Yes?) or b.) make it more than 64 MB?

 

EDIT (again): It broke (again). It seems to have worked the first time I loaded Safari/iCloud, then, when I tried loading a Steam game, it stopped working, even without a reboot... any ideas?

If your signature is correct, you have Ivy Bridge Graphics on Sandy Bridge motherboard.  Based on the motherboard, OS X is trying to load HD3000 graphics kexts on a HD4000 graphics processor.  That configuration is not supported natively in OS X. See HD4000 full acceleration for 10.8 / 10.7.5 - Intel - InsanelyMac Forum.

Hi, I've got HD4000 kext loaded OOB. Even with MacBookPro mid 2008 definition. I have mixed sandy/ivy mobo (DC3217BY). I used ##### install method. The kext came with os install unless ##### put it there. The animations play smoothly. But there is no OpenGL. SNB kext is not loaded though.

Edit:

 

It turns out Mavericks support HD4000 OOB. I screwed the settings by installing old ML AppleFremebufferCapri to get sound. When I patched the original Mavericks Capri, I got video and HDMI sound working properly.

 

Also I think my setup is not mixed Sandy/Ivy. I have QS77 and 3rd gen i3. I really can't understand which is Sandy and which is Ivy and when it's mixed.
