Just wanted to add that I have the exact same numbers on my bios dump as these guys (Asus DirectCU II OC 290X).

Try my patch and show the result

Edit: got the framebuffer dump from my friend Pokenguyen, aside from diskoffset changing, the framebuffer's the same

Maybe we should try other ATY ControlFlags this time. I'm saying that you should disconnect the 3rd monitor, plug the other 2 monitors in using both DVI to see which ATY ControlFlags match best for your DVI ports. I will list all possible Connector patches, you should test them all out ( no change in DP, only DVI ports this time ):

04000000 14020000 0001 0000 10 01 04 06

 

I'm still waiting for the framebuffer dump on DP7. Try this for me

This patch works only for second DVI. First DVI black. HDMI does not work and DVI stops working.

i have never had a issue with amd on windows it's always been stable

 

Seems you're one of the minority who didn't have any issues. I experienced issues too with some apps and games (crashing on the GL or D3D part of AMD Driver :( ).

 

---

 

I'm running PB4 now and can report that my monitor on DVI (sorry folks, I only have one monitor and that's one on DVI) does not need to be re-plugged on boot (finally :D). If you need anything, please shout :) I haven't seen posts of PB4 yet. In my country it launched today, because I just installed :) Works with ONE monitor very good without ANY patches on Clover or kext side :)
