FKA Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 What are you thinking? I'm thinking these guys using voodooHDA that have HDMI audio working haven't told us which port is carrying the audio I guess they have it on the HDMI and the mini display port?! as the Macpro 5770 only has 2 DP and 2 dvi My 5770 card didn't arrive today. will be tomorrow night before I can start messing around with it!

sch8mid Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 http://www.megaupload.com/?d=GD553MYQ posted in fermi thread, contains new ATI ketxs. this is the graphics update. weight of package 65mb it speeds up a little in tests, nothing huge, but anyway everything works fine. atlee Wonder, any caveats - how did you install ? whole package with the new frameworks (Opengl-OpenCL-Quartz) , or just the new driver kexts ? Thanx armin EDIT : First installed only drivers and got a garb. screen... then pulled the pl. and installed the whole bunch and ...BINGO Benchmarks seem only marginal better : went from 24.0 fr + 25.1 fr. in Cinebench OpenGL 11.5 best armin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dreamboy21 Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 yeah xD hey whats the difference between your 5770 bios mod and the normal one ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FKA Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 EDIT - just installed my 5770. Works perfectly - using tmongkol's latest DSDT code for 3 monitors (many thanks.) and the latest Graphicsupdate package that atlee (many thanks too.) posted a few days ago. I have my LCD monitor to one DVI (nearest GPU MB) and LCD TV to the HDMI port. Both DVI ports work with HDMI but havent tried with all 3 monitors/eyefinity. Sleep is broken and I get a horizontal split in video when played, in mirror mode on my HDMI connected LCD TV. I had this problem with the gtx260 only the split was on my LCD monitor and I'm generally watching films on my TV! Video plays fine on both in split desktop. Need to try other framebuffers. HDMI audio works ! (I have onboard alc888T and am using tmongkol' AppleHDA 1.8.7f1 ALC888 LayoutID 888.)

I originally did it the long way, installed new kexts 7 of them, then copy and pasted .frameworks inside framework folder then repaired permissions, worked straight away, but pkg is so much faster. I currently use the 9800GT 512MB edition, but I am very interested in the 5770 after following your posts. With the new snow_leopard_graphics_update_10f2074.dmg now available, what would be the best steps to take to get the 5770 up and running? Currently I am using the NVEnabler 64.kext to get the 9800GT, should I remove the kext and then install the graphics update? Shutdown the machine, install the 5770, reboot? Or should I install the 5770, boot the machine, install the software update and then remove the NVEnabler 64.kext? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Read about Nvidia/ATI dual setup, not sure if you can run one as main monitor and one as extended, You might be able to. You probably will need a special efi string. I used to have efi for 9800gt.

FKA Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 Hey guys- Thought I'd let you all know that I spun up a new [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] ATI, updated with support for ATI 5xxx. Just making it one step simpler to install for peeps with the 5xxx cards. Thanks to netkas, we can all use the drivers: http://netkas.org/?p=465 [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url]-ATI-5xxx http://www.tonymacx86.com/viewtopic.php?f=22&t=3651 Confirmed Working: HD 5770 HD 5850 Hi tonymac I had to resort to this last night when I made a mistake on my main install.

_Jay_ Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 HDMI does work already tested i dont need any adapters, but with eyefinity not sure Trust me VoodooHDA is the worst kext's you could use for your HD soundcards, You just cannot compare the quality between AppleHDA and VoodooHDA, AppleHDA {censored}es all over everything, I could work on a AppleHDA that picks both ALC888 and ATI HDMI R600 Audio or ALC889a and ATI HDMI but i'm just busy at the moment and hands full but i will work on it when have few weeks gap I just tried using the audio kexts you provided and I lost my audio. Not sure why but weird that only VoodooHDA works for me. Any comment? Jay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_Jay_ Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 Do you have a working patched AppleHDA for your alc892 chipset? No I don't, thought he had already patched the files for the 888 which is what I actually have, unless Gigabyte lied to me and so is System Profiler.

Odd, i just looked your MB up on the Gigabyte site and it says alc892 in the manual? EDIT - rev1.0 of your board has alc888 but your sig' says you have rev2.0 which has alc892 !

_Jay_ Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 Then something is extremely mixed up because on the site itself for the rev. 2.0 it says ALC888 but in the manual it says ALC892.

Trauma! Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 Hi, Do you guys have sleep working fine with HD 5770 ? Could someone post his ioregistry explorer save, while running ATY_Init.kext please? And a last question, does the 57x0 card works fine while using only one monitor ? (with Vervet at last) Thanks. PS: what are the video modes supported in Chameleon pls.
