After upgrade from Sierra to High Sierra I just get a black screen after boot. Lilu.kext and WhateverGreen.kext in EFI/Clover/kexts/Other. I have a AMD Radeon HD5670 graphic card native supported by macOS out-of-the-box until now. What could be wrong? Can someone help. Thanks.

Both situations have the same setup and High Sierra runs on Sierra kexts. When I but EmuVariableUefi-64.efi in EFI/CLOVER/drivers64UEFI High Sierra got black screen again. Under High Sierra it locks like com.apple.iokit.IOAcceleratorFamily2 and com.apple.AMDRadeonX3000 is not loaded.

run

sudo kextutil -v /System/Library/Extensions/AMDRadeonX3000.kext

May i ask why must do a rollback it is isn't any fix without rollbacking?

As far as I know there is not, indeed. But I don't have an AMD card myself, so maybe i am missing something. until now the rollback works pretty well, though it's not future proof

Depends the hardware you have

 

If you have a CPU with IGPU Graphics injector like Intel HD 3000 or HD 4000, HD 4600

theres is not need to rollback kexts

See here AMD CARD  ;) Also here Saphire Radeon Succès 5570 

I have ATI 5450 and Saphire Radeon HD 5570 working in High Sierra Dell Optiplex 790

no roll back  :yes:

Great  ^_^

Hey Rico, 

 

You seem to know a bit about these issues and was wondering if you could help me?

 

Using a Radeon R9 280X in High Sierra with only one monitor working.  The second one is getting a signal but displaying only a black screen.  Both worked flawlessly in previous versions of OSX.  I've been working at this for months with no joy and followed the steps above too.  When I replace the aforementioned kexts with the Sierra versions my one working monitor defaults to what could be said is a VGA display with weird colours.  

 

I agree with your logic that it's a kext issue and therefore by replacing the kexts that worked in Sierra they should also work in High Sierra but that isn't the case for me.  It has me wondering if the 3000 kexts are the correct versions for HS?  Any further input?

 

Thanks

 

**EDIT** I am convinced it's the DVI that's broken under High Sierra.  Dual monitors still works OK in Ubuntu and Windows 10 so it isn't a hardware issue. Definitely software related. System Prefs picks up both monitors (See image) https://imgur.com/a/qylUp

 

**EDIT2** I was right DVI was not set up correctly. I had to edit a kext file adding frame buffer settings. All sorted now  :)

AMD cards need driver rollback from Sierra:

 

AMDRadeonX3000.kext

AMDRadeonX3000GLDriver.bundle

IOAccelerator2D.plugin

IOAcceleratorFamily2.kext

 

Sierra_Rollback.zip

Thank you very much.

I have looked for this solution for more than 1 year until now found it !

It worked in my P5Q Pro MB (LGA 775) with 5770 GPU and 6870 GPU at 10.13.3 & 10.13.6.

It's a bit wierd:blink: All you have better graphic than me. My old ATI 4850 works flawlessly on HS even Mojave 10.14.3. I just made proper SSDT-GFX0.aml by this thread https://github.com/acidanthera/WhateverGreen/blob/master/Manual/Sample.dsl and made proper connector patches by this thread https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/303186-how-to-modification-of-amd-fb-clover-injection/ and this is how I got rid of black screen problems. The only concern is present Mojave 10.14.4 betas.

Waiting for final 10.14.4 release:drool:

I hate to drag up an old post but i believe it may apply to my situation.

 

This is my first Hackintosh and i started with Mountain Lion. I managed to get it installed only to get black screeen on my laptop monitor. When i plugged in and external monitor i was able to see the desktop.

After hours of searching and reading i managed to fix it by patching the framebuffer and i was successful. I was able to obtain full acceleration and all my video ports worked.

 

Then came the idea to upgrade. I went with High Serria because i read that Mojave had issues with my video gpu. So i installed High Serria only to come to realize that my framebuffer edits needed redone.

After more reading i realized that the framebuffer layout had changed and i needed to modify my edits and the way i patched them in the config.plist.

 

After repatching them and selecting the right boot options, everything loads up. System sees my card, ioreg see my personality but i dont have hardware acceleration. It should be 1024 and its 6,lol

 

I've not tried whatevergreen with the lilu method yet either. I've patched the framebuffer correctly. Now im wondering is it a problem with High Serria and my GPU.

 

The laptop is a HP8740w with an Intel i5-520M ---1st gen arrandale chip.

The graphics are Ati firepro M8720....This is the basically an ATI HD 5770 and this is what is detected by clover and my OS.

 

I'm not really sure but i don't have the amd5000controller.kext anymore either. Things have changed obviously.

I've read other threads with people with the same gpu having the same issue with no solution. This is the first thread that suggested a rollback to older drivers.

 

I'm willing to try that if someone could explain the process a little and provide or tell me which kext files i require.

 

Thanks guys.

 

Edit

 

I installed the above kext files with the kext wizard

I rebooted a few times but this was the output from the cmd 

 

kextstat | egrep "AMD|IOAccelerator"

This differs a bit from what i think i was supposed to get

But it's obvious the kexts from the above serria rollback.zip file were installed

I looked at the installed kexts in the wizard and i do not see the AMDLegacySupport.kext the AMD5000Controller.kext or the AMDLegacyFramebuffer.kext and none of those kext are in my

System/Library/Extensions

The only AMD file beside the 2 installed from the rollback file is the AMD9300Controller.kext

 

Any suggestions? Should i locate the other 3 and install them?
