It has the option to disable 'Secure Boot' but still no success :(

 

Maybe I would send a request for hybrid EFI VBios to Sapphire.

 

And FYI, my HD 7870 XT works with AtiConfig=Chutoro.

 

 

hello friend,

your 7870 work on ML 10.8.3?

Ok, my HD 7870 XT (ID 679e) is working now with Clover. I would confirm here that NO SLEEP TRICK :thumbsup_anim:

 

Here is my config in order to make it works;

 

Clover :

- r1177 (specifically for this card)

- Remove CsmVideo driver

- FBName=Futomaki

- GraphicsInjector=Yes

- No custom DSDT

 

BIOS/UEFI setup for Asrock Z77 Extreme6 :

- Disable IGPU Multi Monitor (Lucid Virtu)

- Set share memory NOT to AUTO

- May or may not disabling CSM (as long as no CsmVideo driver in Clover)

 

I found Futomaki is the best currently since DVI-D and HDMI ports automatically give the correct resolution to my monitor (max 1920x1080). Not yet tested with miniDP.

With other framebuffers I got;

Aji and Dashimaki - lost signal when using HDMI port.

Hamachi - I have to scale down resolution when using DVI-D port.

 

Thanks a lot k3nny :smoke:

Do u have a link for r1177? i've found only r1174 :(

 

And pls, can u attach ur config.plist ?

 

thankssssss

 

Do you really need it? What is your ATI card? A change in r1177 refers to HD 8780 XT (Tahiti LE) - ID 679e. For other cards, most likely are already supported. So you can use r1174 instead. Check here > http://sourceforge.n...Platform/ati.c.

 

Here is my config.plist;

OK, your DeviceID is 0x679a and it is already supported by Clover. Check if it supported by AMDAccelerator and AMD7000Controller.

You have to follow other user recommendations: choose one of frames (Aji, Dashimaki, Futomaki or Hamachi), write proper values into config.plist, and boot in UEFI mode.

May be you need also ATI connectors patch as invented by bcc9.

For exclude sleep trick you have to erase CsmVideoDxe-64.efi. It is a trick.

Hi guyz ! i know you hate stuff from tonymacx86 but this can help so many user so i decided to share it here ! i hope i'll don't get banned .. :/

 

Here is how to fix this White Screen problem :

 

First, boot with -x or another supported GPU

 

Get fp-rotate from this site and uncompress it somewhere:

http://modbookish.le...-display-on-os/

 

Open Automator.app

Select "Application"

Choose "Run shell script" (from the Actions/Utilities)

Paste this script (change de path):

 

 

/Users/user/fb-rotate -d 0 -r 90

/Users/user/fb-rotate -d 0 -r 0

 

 

Save the script somewhere.

 

Go to System Preferences -> Accounts -> Login items and add the script.

 

(Optional: you can set auto login too).

EDIT :

 

Our friend pernacabeluda from olarila.com made an app to make this process easier to do :

Thanks for the tip scellow, its much better than the sleep trick.

 

I will stick with this until a hardware or kext solution appear.

 

Thanks!

This is excellent, working great. Thanks for posting!

 

This trick works with multiple monitors, too. Just run ./fb-rotate -i to get the hexadecimal Display_ID for each display, then for each display do the trick as listed above but instead of -d 0 put in -d [Display_ID]

Hope you can add my Gigabyte Mhz edition 7970 3GB. It doesn't seem to be working with the rotation trick. It may be that I have to rotate my 4 displays in a certain order. Or maybe with a pause between. Sleep trick is still working.

Hi,

 

I installed iATKOS ML2, after I updated at 10.8.3, after I installed v2 r1208 Clover EFI bootloader in the hdd, I put the dsdt of artur-pt in EFI / ACPI / Patched folder, I added my device id (0x68181002) at the kexts. But the hack stuck after DSMOS has arrived. Only in safe mode the PC starts, and in the System Info, Graphics, says: Monitor 7 Mb

 

I read the topic, but I did not understand almost nothing, the sleep trick you can do when you get to the screen black or white, but I block before these screens .. and if I press the power button nothing happens.

 

Here are the files that have changed, you can check that they are correct?
