@ddi Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 I'm going to need the subsystem ids from all those with a working card (even if the they needed to add the device id to an Info.plist); run this command in a Terminal window and post the output: sudo lspci -nnvd 0x1002: | grep -B2 Subsystem This is going to help in using the best FB config for each specific card; because there are different cards in the same model and each have unique subsystem ids. Thanks I am a true beginner I know I should be not here, but just want to help fix my video ; anyway I tried to copy and past that in terminal and i end up with: sudo: lspci: command not found.

If you need more info, tell me, and I help you as good as I can. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brisc0 Posted October 10, 2010 Share Posted October 10, 2010 Sapphire HD 5870 Eyefinity 6 w/2GB GDDR5 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: ATI Technologies Inc Unknown device [1002:6898] (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: ATI Technologies Inc Unknown device [1002:0b00] -- 01:00.1 Audio device [0403]: ATI Technologies Inc Unknown device [1002:aa50] Subsystem: ATI Technologies Inc Unknown device [1002:aa50] First off, let me start by saying I am not nuts. What I have come up with is happy accidents and dumb luck. I hope being an expert you can glean some usefulness of this as I don't understand how I got it all working, but its working brilliantly w/ Uakari only: This card has 6xMiniDP ports on it to support the 6 screen eyefinity feature. Basically, the card allows the right most signal to take priority and act as screen one. If I plug up a monitor into the right most port, I can use DVI, DL-DVI, HDMI, DisplayPort. The cables that are capable can carry full 2560x1440@60hz to my 27" screen and its gorgeous. If I plug an input into the second mini display port, the main display on slot 1 dies and nothing is displayed on slot 2. If I remove slot 1, slot 2 becomes the primary monitor and displays a picture. If I plug an input into the third mini display port, it becomes my second monitor and slot one becomes active again, so long as the input in slot 2 is not removed. Yes, for slot 3 to be my second monitor, I have to have a cable plugged into slot 2. Just plugging in the MiniDP dongle will not work, it has to be an HDMI, DVI, Etc. cable. This cable does not however have to terminate to a monitor, it just has to be present. If I plug an input into the 4th - 6th ports, nothing happens. So: To get 1x 27" monitor @ 2560x1440 and a second, 22" Acer @ 1920x1080 to work, I have to do the following. Slot 1- 27" via DisplayPort Slot 2- any cable to nothing Slot 3- 22" acer via HDMI, DVI, etc. Thanks so much for your contribution I hope my data is of assistance to you and its not too much trouble to decipher. Please PM if I can provide more. Thanks! Sapp_5870_Eyefinity_2GB_GDDR5.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaviDemon Posted October 10, 2010 Share Posted October 10, 2010 Sounds great Brisc0! I'm trying your method although I have a different card. I find funny results. The most successful FB for me was Baboon. Although, using Uakari - Plug all cables in (3 slots) 1 VGA, 1 DVI (with dongle to VGA) and HDMI. HDMI, has always failed me so far. I plug in the VGA and the DVI2VGA. I get blanks. I find that - the one with the VGA is always the main display, HOWEVER, the name comes up as the other monitor. So, I plug in my SyncMaster and my ImageQuest. The DVI2VGA leads to the ImageQuest - the SyncMaster in VGA slot. The SyncMaster comes up with the display but in the System Preferences, it displays it as my ImageQuest. Vice Versa, I plug my ImageQuest into the VGA slot, and SyncMaster into the DVI2VGA. This time, the ImageQuest comes up, but the name is "SyncMaster"! WHAT THE HECK? 1 display doesn't work either. I posted up my successful results before, just adding some other information that may be needed. :/ So yeah, that's my discovery. Still testing out everything.

TH3L4UGH1NGM4N Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 Tried out your boot file Kabyl and so far it gives me the same working solution I had before which is one DVI port working.(VGA and HDMI still gives no signal) Using a Sapphire 4850 (hdmi-vga-hdmi) card I just took a screenshot of the terminal lspci and the sys prof Dunno why the sys prof shows the card as a 4830 might just be a cosmetic issue but lspci shows it as the 4850 it is. So far I've tried out the Motmot FB which only gives me a dvi connection but I'm gonna roll through the list of Fb's and see if I get anything different with them. If anything I might just make the jump into the 5xxx series for the sake of having more than one monitor connected because your boot file is like God on hot cakes for the 5xxx cards. Thanks again Fb list Flicker-only DVI works Motmotwhen AtiFb=Motmot used at boot prompt the boot hangs between the dsdt loading the audio (funny since the default Fb used is motmot..)

J Lamp Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 Still no joy. I seem to be one of the few still not able to get this to work. I am using ATY_Init successfully though. As you can see the card ID is already known to be in the system kexts (6898) Results with a fresh install on an external drive; KP when loading the x3000 kext. Same results with XFX Rom, Netkas Rom (XFX5870-1.rom) and variations trying Kabyl, Trauma and Mohamed's boot loaders. I've even tried this while removing my DSDT, in case of IRQ conflicts (I had customized it because the HPET fix was causing an IRQ conflict with a particular PCI card.) No luck. Posted a screen shot of output when flashing back to the XFX Rom from Netkas' (for comparison) and the kp (which is always the same with the exception of which processor it throws on) I've also posted the ioreg dump, the lspci output and the system profiler screen shot though this is when using ATY-Init (the card works perfectly with ATY-Init.) I hope this info may be helpful. XFX5870_info.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
