AkimoA Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Rite since Great Work has been done by all the Devs on the new Legacy Kernel theres still a few Bugs to be taken care of on Phenom and Athlon Systems to get QE/CI in all his beauty running Since the 1st Kernel has been released were still suffering from GUI Problems -> http://cl.ly/image/1G3V3I3s3k0Q This Thread is to discuss and keep the Nvidia one clean from us buggin in Post your Test and Workarounds ,your Cards and Thoughts on how to solve it In my case a 5770 Batmobile will add some Picture later on :wink2: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deltac0 Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 HD5870 here, using Andy's latest amd_kernels the glitches disappear in about 30 minutes. However, the system is not nice to use as long as the glitches appear there. Also, the one when dock is shown from the "hide-mode" doesn't disappear. The dock just flashes for about a second and then acts as normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AkimoA Posted January 10, 2013 Author Share Posted January 10, 2013 @deltac0 yeah i wish it would disappear .like it came but not the case here ..been trying all weird things including replacing WindowServer from Lion and so on Tryed with all possible Framebuffers on 5000 series with no luck .... .. keep on diggin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bitcore Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 HD6770 Working fully QE/CI. I'm using Andy's latest kernel (with working build in corecrypto) And a kext package i found here : http://www.osx86.net/downloads.php?do=file&id=3185 Bitcore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wastez Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 In my case there are glitches too and waiting doesn´t change anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SS01 Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 With my 6570 they go away with time. Some have found that deflecting the QE/CI kexts for your card may help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wastez Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Allready removed qe/ci but that is not a solution... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theconnactic Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 It seems the issues affect specifically ATI 5xxx series... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wastez Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 I don´t think so. The people without issues all having a Bulldozer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theconnactic Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 AFAIK SS01 doesn't have a Bulldozer, neither mac_carol or instant idiot... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wastez Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Yes but on his system it just go away after a while, so it´s not working as it should. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad Marcsen Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 So, i am trying the whole afternoon to get a step further, and maybe i did. Until now i booted my system with GraphicsEnabler=No. My graphics card (hd5670) was detected as Radeon 5000 series. When i tried to boot with GraphicsEnabler=Yes i got a panic in ATI5000Controller.kext. But when i ad AtiConfig=Hoolock, the system boots up and my card is detected as 5600 series. I tried Langur so far but it ended in a black screen. But i still have glitches and artifacts. wastez, i think you tried different framebuffers. What was your experience? Now i'm gonna try some different framebuffers and maybe some other smios.plist. This has to work somehow . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AkimoA Posted January 10, 2013 Author Share Posted January 10, 2013 other framebuffers will give you most likely no ouput on your videoport .... and other mac model neither since they not affect ATI Cards as much they do to nvidias Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wastez Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 I think there is nothing we can do. I gues the kexts are using a instruction set which is not supported by the Kernel or something else. So if no Developer help we will not get it working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad Marcsen Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Ok, is there something i as a non-developer can do? Logs? Some other informations? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad Marcsen Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 @spakk: the problem is not the graphics card itself. in the video the dude is installing mountain lion on an intel cpu. so as andy says, its a problem with the delaytime the ssse3-emulator introduces. on intel and bulldozer etc. cpu's you have native ssse3 . and in german das problem ist nicht die grafikkarte. in dem video installiert der kerl mountain lion auf einer intel cpu. andy sagt, dass es ein problem mit der verzögerung gibt, welche vom ssse3 emulator kommt. intel und bulldozer etc. können ja nativ ssse3... von daher gibt es hier keine verzögerung Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AkimoA Posted January 14, 2013 Author Share Posted January 14, 2013 since some real mac users flashed there ATI Cards with lower clock settings to get rid of glitches why dont we drop a rom with lower settings and try booting with that could that work ? to reach the same effect ?

Yes, it could work. Also it will give the opemu more time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad Marcsen Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 hmm, they increased clock setting. my card also hat about 150mhz gpu/ 200mhz ram clock setting in power save mode. they suggested that you increase the settings to about 400/1000. it's more about deactivating the power-saving modes. for my card it didn't work, but there are a lot of mac people where that didn't work either. still has the feeling that this is a "mac" problem. but if someone would try to edit his graphics bios, i could give help.... did this yesterday all day long ... so i gained a little experience here. but if you could just do this with a rom...... but all the different ati-cards have other roms.... so one had to offer more roms for the different ati cards out there, or am i wrong?

Deltac0 Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 So, underclocking GPU could work? I could try with my old HD4650, if I can find it and the machine agrees to boot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happel Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Are we sure this isn't something opengl related? When I compare my 4870 (only glitches in chrome with flash as far as I know) and my 5450 (lots of glitches in safari etc). The 4870 is way faster (more shader units, higher clockrate), so for me it's hard to believe this is speed related. So I looked up some specifications, these below stood out as the only difference in capabilities (besides raw power of course). 4870 5450 OpenGL version 3.0 3.2 Shader Model 4.1 5.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it true that HD5770 is woring OOB? Because my little brother has graphic issues on that one to. -About my HD6770 , after reinstalling with another installdisk i also have issues - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AkimoA Posted January 16, 2013 Author Share Posted January 16, 2013 yes that is true and your 6770 is Chipwise the same aswell AFAIK wastez and myself tested with underclocked roms for 5770 without alot of changes in glitches /artifacts so i guess that is a dead end ..... investigate more Andy could u have a look inside the AMDRadeon kexts for any clue if you have a minute these days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
