Gents, i got this weird problem now.. started before update but continued after 10.8.3, sleep is not workign anymore, and i suspect the gfx card has something to do with it. Also, my display is seen as a vga (again) this wasnt before, have to set resolution manual :( Also, games like starcraft2 dont work in fullscreen anymore, i just get a black screen. windowed works.

 

 

Funny thing is while writing this it occurs to me that it might be that the mac thinks the screen i use now is the secondary screen..l ill be testing a few things with that.

 

EDIT: hurr soo yea :P i properly reisntalled the ati5000 kext and screen works fine again, games running smooth and all, only sleep aint going well. its going down properly, but waking up its actually rebooting, guess thats something else then :(

 

maybe time for some new hardware, desperatly waiting for hasswell stuffs...
