okrasit Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 x99 has gpu issues time to get a more os x friendly rig Do you have the igpu enabled? Boot screen on r9 290x? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew82 Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 Do you have the igpu enabled? Boot screen on r9 290x? X99, X79, X58 don't have integrated gpu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
okrasit Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 X99, X79, X58 don't have integrated gpu. Yes, that's why I asked wardoc! I have 290 working with Sierra, but it still requires the "hack". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew82 Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 what kind of "hack" you are using. I see you have similar hardware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
okrasit Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 what kind of "hack" you are using. I see you have similar hardware. The magic is to not load the vbios by bios/uefi (boot blind). I changed the pci-id in the vbios, so that it doesn't match with the card and doesn't get loaded at boot. It's just a bit inconvenient, having to flip the switch on the card, whenever I need to access bios settings etc. I'll figure out a fix for it! Meanwhile, you could flash one of your cards to get it running? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew82 Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 Little confusing for me You put same fake bios to clover ROM folder and named it 1002_67B0.rom ? Can you explaind more specific? I wood like to try. So you have full acceleration on Sierra? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wood like to try. So you have full acceleration on Sierra? You'd have to use windows to flash the card's vbios. Don't do anything yet, as I'll try to find a better fix for it today. Yes, I've got full acceleration... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vineeth Penugonda Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 I am trying to upgrade to macOS Sierra public beta but I get an error while installing it "invalid sandbox profile for pid xx"!

okrasit Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 Here's a kext for Intel cpus with no power management (to be used with NullCPUPowerManagement.kext) in Sierra: https://www.dropbox.com/s/dt113ivtsl40ltn/msr199.kext.zip?dl=0 And for the ones with uncore: (Haswell/Broadwell -E, -EP) https://www.dropbox.com/s/102fk4i8xv86466/msr199withUncore_max.kext.zip?dl=0 For testing. Make sure c1e is enabled or the cpu will run at full throttle all the time! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

okrasit Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 I have power management already patched in the dsdt/ssdt. Why do I need this kext? How do I enable c1e? Do you get full performance already? If you do, then you don't need it. At least E5 2600 v3/v4 Xeons and 5960x need it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brumbaer Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 I assume you're setting msr199 to full speed/voltage all the time ? I get the same result on my mobo, by switching off Speed Step and enable Turbo Mode in BIOS. This results in Turbo all the time. C States are used as replacement for Speed Step.

I get the same result on my mobo, by switching off Speed Step and enable Turbo Mode in BIOS. This results in Turbo all the time. C States are used as replacement for Speed Step. Yes, some bioses do set msr 199h to max multi. Some don't and for Xeons I haven't seen one that does for all cores & threads. The kext writes 0xff00 to msr 199h on all cores/threads once and when exiting sleep. As there's no power management, the written values aren't overridden. The uncore version also writes msr 620h min multiplier = max multiplier. Disabling uncore scaling helps with some situations. Higher fps on games and benchmarks. I got some stuttering on some games with Xeon and 5960x, when enabled. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

okrasit Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 And You find some better fix for our radeon? Working on it, I'm making a new feature for Clover that will read phy mappings from the card's vbios and patch the controller kext accordingly.

flip360 Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 Same as me with GTX660, if you find a solution please let us know. the soulution for DP2 was to boot with nv_disable=1 and install the nVidia graphic drivers, not needed with PB1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mnfesq Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 This is the exact error what I get while trying to upgrade to macOS Sierra Public beta from 10.11.6 El Capitan! That usually has to do with the drive you are booting from. Did you create an installer and boot to that or just use the installer app? Was the app on a USB drive? You need to provide more details to get any meaningful assistance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badeendje Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 Caution; If you have a Nvidia card that's only supported by the webdrivers you may want to hold back, although the PB2 has the same build number as DP3 the drivers won't work! Also the webdrivers won't show an update yet, so wait a bit for it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gogeta5026 Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 Yes and installed What commands do you use in clover or chameleon in order to boot? (ex. ncda_drv=1 etc. etc.) I've been having issues lately. Any help would be great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
