no problem.

btw, first post updated and latest build download link added

 

Same as 4b right or did you make any additional changes?

 

Also I have been doing some searching and noticed people talking about SSDT tables. They are specific to your CPU. I have all my ACPI tabes extracted and have 4 SSDT tables. Anyway do you know if my FSB value is in there somewhere? If it is I can edit it and ad that to your boot-loader and have my 800fsb instead of 736.

 

Let me know and if you know where the FSB is in the SSDT

not directly. the values u can change are cpu frequencies for each state (cpu freq≈ fsb freq x actual multiplier). u 'd find those freqs onto the _pss section.

 

valv, can you add GUI support to boot please? Thank you! I love you.
u 're welcome. it is already there, unless u mean a pkg installer.

Damn I was afraid of that. I see the PSS section in SSDT-2 and below that is TSSI section which looks like speedsteps. If I was to alter this to compensate for the FSB being 736 would it work or be problematic? I might look into doing this but also dont wanna end up with random Kps from it. Let me know what you think.

 

THanks for the advice.

AnVal 2010-07-13 Installer.pkg - attached.

 

Even installs to USB ...............

 

no Extras etc. included, only pure boot-loader installer

 

tested, working

 

After reboot it doesn't gets past this screen:

Tried it right now on a fresh OSX 10.6.3 retail installation, there was no other bootloader previously installed.

 

EDIT: Manual installation from Terminal works fine, so there must be something wrong with your installer.

Hey valv

 

i'm putting together a new build, and I still had a Ati 3650HD floating around.

So I tried your bootloader, but no matter whether I use GE or not, PciRoot=1 or =0, it just doesn't want to work.

KP's with the x2000.kext.

 

Tried with 10.6.0 and 10.6.4, fakesmc 2.5 and modded DSDT. Any pointers? It'd be cool to be able to use the card i have and not to have to buy a new one.

 

Cheers,

DieBuche

DieBuche, am working on a new version (shhhhhh!), and I 'd be glad to see your issue fixed. let me do some research.

edit: is this specific to AnVAL or didn't it work with trunk neither?

Whispering(New version already? This is great! :unsure: ) I believe (in DieBuche case) X2000 kext panic also occurred with original chameleon too. On some machine X2000 kext tend to panic. I don't know why though. Could be this caused by wrong PCI bus enumeration (I don't know if I ask the right question)? -_-

 

@DieBuche, have you tried patched version of IOPCIFamily.kext?

maybe this thread (233 pages) could be of use to you:

ATI Radeon HD pkg installers 10.5.x & 10.6, Easy to install !! 10.6 pkgs coming soon!

 

also i read somewhere that x2000.kext gives KP's as you said and should be deleted...

pre-alpha: custom FSB injection

boot.plist key: ForceFSB (just like the busratio key: u input the value u like)

 

EDIT: file is now obseleted

Ok it works as long as I do not pass any other variables at the boot prompt. If I add the verbose mode -v to it it loads the default dsdt.

Thanks

 

EDITED:

 

I can pass the -v option but have to pass it first then the DSDT=<file> override 2nd. If I reverse it, it loads the default dsdt.

I witnessed the same behaviour.

valv, ready to test it ;)

just tell me how to implement/ test this custom FSB injection?

u put a new key named ForceFSB onto boot.plist, and pass an fsb value (something like 266). That's all.

thanx, valv ;)

 

report with AnVAL5 pre alpha:

 

with FixFSB=Yes, ForceFSB=266, busratio=110 --> sound is OK

sysctl -a | grep freq
hw.busfrequency = 1064000000
hw.cpufrequency = 2933000000
hw.tbfrequency = 1000000000
hw.busfrequency: 1064000000
hw.busfrequency_min: 1064000000
hw.busfrequency_max: 1066666668
hw.cpufrequency: 2933000000
hw.cpufrequency_min: 2933000000
hw.cpufrequency_max: 2933000000
hw.tbfrequency: 1000000000

 

with FixFSB=No, ForceFSB=266, busratio=110 --> sound is OK

sysctl -a | grep freq
hw.busfrequency = 1064000000
hw.cpufrequency = 2933000000
hw.tbfrequency = 1000000000
hw.busfrequency: 1064000000
hw.busfrequency_min: 1064000000
hw.busfrequency_max: 1066716132
hw.cpufrequency: 2933000000
hw.cpufrequency_min: 2933000000
hw.cpufrequency_max: 2933000000
hw.tbfrequency: 1000000000

 

so far everything seems OK, also no sound glitches as with previous alphas. CPU FSB is set to 266MHz and the frequency multiplier is set to 11 in my BIOS.

 

should you need more testing options just tell me :D

Dear rednous, thank u for the feedback. would u mind decreasing the FSB value to 233 and FixFSB=No, just to see if it really works.

valv, :) yep:
