SavageAUS 956 Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 So even on non ati graphics machines we will need WEG? Because it will include Intel and Nvidia fixups?Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk Link to post Share on other sites

It is unclear how to begin. Most people don't need to patch framebuffers manually. The most common patch required is DP->HDMI connector conversion for audio which is already done in WhateverGreen automatically. Personally I need to disable connector 3 otherwise my machine can't sleep. Some people need to patch stolenmem / fbmem to match the DVMT-prealloc in their BIOS. There are different reasons for framebuffer patching but you may not need it. Edited July 22, 2018 by headkaze SavageAUS, verdazil and xtddd 3 Link to post Share on other sites
zeg66 23 Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 whatevergreen complains about unknown format during boot. patcher tool shows 515 mobile when it's 530 GT2 desktop. got a very long patch, inserted into config.plist but the jitter remains. ideas? Link to post Share on other sites

Please download the latest Lilu + WhateverGreen. If you don't know why you're patching framebuffers then best you don't. Link to post Share on other sites
zeg66 23 Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 using the latest ones. whatever debug version so -igfxdump boot flag produces the appropirate file. patching because of crazy jitter. if left alone without patching jitter is the same, no change. other options?

Show me your WhateverGreen log and your Clover config.plist/Devices/Properties patch. I don't think you're using the latest versions of Lilu + WhateverGreen. You need to download them both and compile then copy Lilu.kext debug version into WhateverGreen and compile it. The "unknown format" bug was only fixed today.

zeg66 23 Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 that is definitely NOT what I've done. thank you for your help. perhaps the jitter problem will be solved in an upcoming 'release' version? Link to post Share on other sites

You never actually told me what you're trying to patch. Intel FB-Patcher is only a tool to help you create a patch. You have to do the work to figure out what patch you need for your system. For example do you know the DVMT-prealloc value for your BIOS? If it's 32MB then you should set stolenmem/fbmem to something like in the example. In general framebuffer patching is not necessary because WhateverGreen takes care of most issues automatically. I do not recommend patching framebuffers unless you know why you're doing so. Also you should only patch the values you need to not everything Intel FB-Patcher outputs. Link to post Share on other sites
zeg66 23 Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 dvmt is set to 128MB, anything smaller and it doesn't even boot. HS works fine with the iGPU but Mojave has a lot of jitter, can't really "work" at all, so I thought using your method here might cure it. I was obviously wrong, that's fine.

There are different reasons for framebuffer patching but you may not need it. You are completely right! I compiled the latest kexts versions (Lilu.kext, v1.2.6 and WhateverGreen.kext, v1.2.1) and it all worked automatically. Link to post Share on other sites
headkaze 769 Posted July 23, 2018 Author Share Posted July 23, 2018 I've attached a script you can run that will download and compile Lilu + Whatever green and place the kexts into Debug and Release folders. build_lilu.zip verdazil, Fergarth, khoahoc0508 and 1 other 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites

tikizondo94 103 Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 Can we use FB patcher to patch changing ports in kblframebuffer? Say if I wanted to change LVDS to eDP in 0x59160000?

Here are the connector types: Zero = 0x0 Dummy = 0x1 ; Always used as dummy, seems to sometimes work as VGA LVDS = 0x2 ; Just like on AMD LVDS is used for eDP DigitalDVI = 0x4 ; This is not eDP despite a common misbelief SVID = 0x8 VGA = 0x10 DP = 0x400 HDMI = 0x800 AnalogDVI = 0x2000 Edited July 24, 2018 by headkaze tonyx86 1 Link to post Share on other sites
tikizondo94 103 Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 I was told elsewhere the eDP support on the hd620 "0x59160000" on 10.13.6/10.14 was not supported. I'm hoping that info was not correct lol. Link to post Share on other sites

Only downside is you wont have brightness control. Patch looks like this: <key>framebuffer-patch-enable</key> <integer>1</integer> <key>framebuffer-con0-enable</key> <integer>1</integer> <key>framebuffer-con0-flags</key> <integer>0x00000090</integer> Edited July 24, 2018 by headkaze Link to post Share on other sites
