Absolutely.

 

Okay then, there you go! :)

 

Attachment added with the following included in the package:

 

- Clover configuration (s/n etc. are masked).

- IOReg dump from IORegistryExplorer v2.1.

- Clover ACPI folder (original and patched DSDT, as well as the DSL file).

 

Check my signature for hardware / software specs (it's the desktop one of course  :)).

 

 

I hope that this information may help you. If you still need more information, don't hesitate to ask.

I see no drivers attached to HDMI device.

weird...  ^_^  What did you do to load Audio driver?

What about VoodooHDA?

 

If you mean HDMI audio. I do not use that. I only use HDMI video. I use ALC898 patch from toleda for working audio :) My screen is on HDMI, but does not have speakers.

I am currently not in the need to get HDMI audio working as I cannot test it, but if there is anything you need from me, please do tell.

 

I also finally came 'round to test the DP and that one (at least on my card) still needs to be re-plugged. DVI I cannot test, yet. HDMI works though on this card with the patch.

 

Sorry for the confusion  :blush:

After using bits and pieces from MacFaultys config file I was able to get 2 displays running on my card (so, that's an improvement), still no luck getting the 3rd to light up. Wierd thing is - it doesn't matter what ports I plug them into, so the connectors work but it only activates 2 screens at max for some reason. What do you guys think, is it still a problem with the framebuffer or maybe the driver itself is {censored}ed?

I think I have gotten 3 up and going by connecting the 3rd after the system is booted. I just don't think I was successful getting it to boot that way.

 

Anyway, I have also noticed that any monitors connected to the secondary card seem to have strange artifact issues with flash animations. Its like its getting bitmaps mixed up or something. 

 

On the machine with 1440p monitor and HDMI I moved both monitors to the same card and now that machine works really well.

Hey Guys, I wanna say thanks for the config.plist (@MacFaulty) which worked for my R9 290 (Non-X). And I also ordered the active display port converter from dell and that's why I am posting here. I found the adapter very very cheap. 

 

http://www.notebook-traum.de/shop/multimedia/bizlink-displayport-zu-dvi-dual-link-adapter-kabel-dell-pn-0xt625-xt625-neu/

 

You get it for about 10 Euros. They are from Germany. International Delivery is 15 Euro, which makes 25 Euro, so still very cheap. (But i am not exactly sure where they deliver to, but i think International Delivery means Europe) 

 

Thought that might be useful.

i repeat this card does not need active adapters that's why we can run 3 or more at once without them i run a dp to dvi non active it works i run a hdmi to dvi-dl non active so i suggest you learn a little more about the 290x before talking people into to buying {censored} they do not need

Hello. Can someone help me? Days and days I`m trying to solve problem. I have MSI R9 290X (4gb). With  all patches in this topic i get only hdmi+dvi working. Or just black screen. I also tried to patch by myself. No luck. I need HDMI+DVI+DP working. Here`s my bios and config. I would be appreciate for your help.

You can try this, also I have attached the AMD8000Controller.kext from 10.10.3 which has the Exmoor FB, the Baladi FB makes the gfx card over heat badly.

Unfortunately, same situation. I have DVI HDMI working. It doesn't recognize DP. Maybe I have syntax mistakes in config.plist? Or wrong bios settings.. I have vd-t - enable, intel graphics - disable, CSM - as I understood enable. (I have yosemite 10.10.3 beta 2 already).

I had to enable CSM to get DP to work. I bought a cheap HDMI --> VGA adapter so I could turn CSM off. Previously I only had a DP --> VGA adapter.

Same as me. I also use VGA-DP adaptor. And CSM as default (enable). I think, i have mistakes in config.plist. I`ll try to find a problem..

I have different idea. I`ve got my monitors connected: primary(HDMI) with DVI-HDMI cable,  second(DVI) with DVI-DVI, and third (DP which not work) with VGA-VGA+vga-dp adapter. Maybe os x/mac cannot recognize DP because of adapter? What do you think guys?

 

HAVE ANYONE working monitors with adapters as mine?

VGA is not supported by OS X but may work and i think there are no via dp adapters cause VGA is analogue signal and dp digital. Thats like to convert SKART to HDMI

 

happy hacking

Yes, digital and analogue. You`re right. I mean this device.

BUT Firstly, Windows runs great with this adapter.

Secondly, without frame buffer patch my Hackintosh can start with working DP. But as he like, can start with working or can start with black screen at same config.

 

I`m not sure that is something as a bug, or theoretically it can work with this adapter with right config?

i was using this one:

 

http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=9127780

 

it supports DVI and HDMI out and works really well. 

 

now I'm using this one

 

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00LIHRFPW/

 

sometimes after wake with this one the monitor takes an long time to sync or reverts to a weird resolution. probably something to do with this cheap 19" monitor.

Quick question. If you are patching a framebuffer, will this patch need to be adjusted when a new version of the kext is included in an update?

I'm using Clover and put the connectorsData in there. So, do you only need to patch the framebuffer once (only if the framebuffer stays in the driver and you keep the same graphics card, obviously)? :)

 

Thanks
