I need help with a dsdt for my AMD. Attached is the acpi_dsdt from AIDA64, the .dsl from MaciASL, the ioreg output, and my clover config plist. I have tried several times, but methinks this subject is somewhat over my humble head. I use both computers for DAW recording (using Logic nodes) but I plan to sell my older Intel i7 setup, and upgrade soon to a current Intel MB/CPU. My AMD running 10.9.4 is stable except for random graphic issues (screen flashes and goes to a colored background with vertical lines a few times per day). What's great is that all the ports on the XFX HD5770 work, I am driving 2 monitors and a TV/monitor at once, but I get the screen issues even with just one monitor connected. Some of my audio hardware is not supported on Yosemite, so i will remain on Mavericks for a while longer. After many successful builds over the past 4 years using Chameleon and no dsdt, I recently switched to Clover, and feel it is time to use a custom dsdt.

One more question - I used AIDA64/Windows 7 to extract the dsdt, but there was no acpi/tool/ssdt option available. Is that because I am on an AMD?

 

Thanks ahead of time to anyone that can help!

DSDT.zip

Boot into Clover GUI and press  F4 here. You will get all acpi tables available from BIOS.

Don't wonder if DSDT obtained here with be byte by byte the same as you get by AIDA64. They come from BIOS.

Thanks for the tip, Slice. And a huge thanks for all that you have done for this Hackintosh community...

 

It turns out that for some unknown reason, this combination of AMD, Clover, and Mavericks is the cause of the gfx issues. After reverting to Chameleon on the same HDD, the problem has totally disappeared. The problem only appeared after switching to Clover in the first place. My system has now been up for 4 days straight. Surfing with 3 different browsers, playing games, Photoshop, and DAW recording hasn't crashed it once. I am not saying the problem is Clover, it has to the combination of it with AMD and Mavericks. So, there is no issue at all with the kernel ( AMD Kernel for OS X Mavericks 10.9.4 {XNU:13.3.0} V2.0 ) or the Vervet framebuffer. So I will stay with Chameleon without a DSDT on my AMD, and stay with Clover and compile a DSDT for the Intel i7. I have had real Macs for 17 years now, and Hacks for 5 years!  On behalf of all of us users, a big thanks goes to this community, the staff, the crew and all of the developers for the vision, hard work, and continuing support!!!  Can't wait to see what's around the corner ! GOOD HACK !!!   :yes:encouragement.png
