DavidRocha Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 Wow, interesting. Normally it shouldn't work this way I would say.. The reason is because on normal notebooks only integrated graphics card has connectors to display, while discrete card is connected to integrated one. On real Mac Books both cards are connected to display, thus switchable graphics works differently. There are some notebooks where switchable graphics works as on real Mac Books (fe. Dell Alienware series), but their price is almost identical to Mac Book Pro The idea is to make the two cards to run in switching, but I think this is not possible, even injected the device (Gmux) in DSDT, as you can see in my ioreg. So, I think I need to disable the bios intel hd 3000, but how? Any idea? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's graphics card accelerator, not framebuffer. It's normal to have ATI Lombok for your card. I also have it. The idea is to make the two cards to run in switching, but I think this is not possible, even injected the device (Gmux) in DSDT, as you can see in my ioreg. So, I think I need to disable the bios intel hd 3000, but how? Any idea? Well I just explained in the post you quoted why it is not possible to disable HD3000 or use switchable graphics in your case. You can probably add option to disable HD3000 using modded bios, but when you activate it I'm almost 100% sure you will get not working graphics card.

Trucker MK Posted August 7, 2013 Author Share Posted August 7, 2013 @ MyDOOm3 Archive.zip Try this. 1. Copy both DSDTs in /Extra/ 2. Install the kext 3. Reboot If you get black screen and can not boot to OS X hold the power button to shutdown and boot again with this flag DSDT=/Extra/DSDTold.aml Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidRocha Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 Ok, but worth a try, and I'm willing to risk. You know what would be the way to do the bios-mod? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freeuser16 Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 Ok, but worth a try, and I'm willing to risk. You know what would be the way to do the bios-mod? No, but I know a person who knows how to do it (he proposed me to try to enable HD4000 on my notebook to have switchable graphics, but I didn't agree ). Give me the last BIOS update file for your notebook (you can normally find it on manufacturers page) and he will patch it for you. However, you have been warned it's surely not worth the risk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for everything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trucker MK Posted August 7, 2013 Author Share Posted August 7, 2013 The DSDTold.aml is fail-safe in case your LVDS is not working like now. Install this kext ATI6000Controller.kext.zip and try again. do not use any flag on boot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freeuser16 Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 @ DavidRocha, Seems that person won't be able to mod your BIOS since he doesn't have Windows anymore. Neither have I This is a tutorial how he did it if you are interested - http://habrahabr.ru/post/182676/ . But it's in Russian.. I'm almost native speaker in Russian and I have to admit I do not understand much of it, so.. Maybe you can find some help on bios-mods.com in English, I don't know.
