holyfield Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 People want to use the last version, especially taking into account how Yosemite was a bit of a disappointment. I like both, Yosemite and El Capitan. The only caveat is this AMD sleep issue at the moment. Otherwise I'm happy wit latest OS X. None of these have been disappointment for me. Those who are disappointed should use Windows or Linux them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not talking about how crashy it was when it came out, there was (and still is) a measurable decrease in graphics performance. Also, discoveryd.

It's pointless to whine about one issue and forgot about the whole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's pointless to argue because even though 10.10.0 was very buggy, all of those bugs were fixed already. But I know a lot of people who still use Mavericks because of that and were waiting for a new version, El Capitan increased performance a lot. At least for me, after updating to 10.11, I can resize windows without stuttering, which was present in Yosemite. By the way, I would like to ask something, any of you guys have noticed how in El Capitan with an ATI there is some colour banding? This is, less available colours so gradients look like that.

No, I have good graphics. But I hear that ElCapitan set new requirements for EDID structure. It may be a reason for bad graphics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holyfield Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Maybe flashing the card is an alternative? http://forums.macrumors.com/threads/flashing-r9-280x-for-boot-screens-pci-system-information.1808938/page-16#post-22118541 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fl0r!an Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 A Mac EFI is of no use at all for a hackintosh, UEFI can't utilize Mac EFI (and vice versa). But as I said before, real Macs don't have this problem even when running a stock PC card, so I guess the cause of our problem is a bug in ACPI tables resulting in some bad ioreg entries which the AMD drivers don't like. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wern apfel Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Here wake from sleep is working randomly, i've saved an ioreg after successfully wake up, the card is an HD7770 ioreg-HD7770.zip 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punkmike Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 I have exactly the same Problem! Mac OS X El Capitan and my Radeon 6870 -> Monitor(s) won't turn on after sleep. SSH works. Even VNC is working. With Yosemite everything was working fine :-/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Screen Shot 2015-10-21 at 23.08.31.png Hmm, interesting. I wonder if wern apfel is using an injector with FakeSMC to prevent HD 7770 glitches, he/she should check; it could just be that (nothing to actually do with FakeSMC).

Slice Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 Sorry, it is just an injector like Verde.kext. @wern apfel Show, please, your Info.plist from FakeSMC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wern apfel Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 Nothing special only the drivers personalities, with disabled GfxCGPowerGating. We have to use the fakesmc.kext!, so i don't see any sense to use a lot of injectors. FakeSMC-Info.plist.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punkmike Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 Can you get image from VNC? Do you use VNC server or Apple's preinstalled Screen Sharing? I'm using Apple's Screen Sharing Service and the VNC App for iPad on the other side.VNC asks for my VNC password and then freezes on "authenticating". No actual image. I can kill the app and then try again, so the service is running and responding but always freezes... I just tried unplugging and reconnecting my Monitor cable after stand by, as suddenly the whole Machine rebooted O.o 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a pity my Turks has no such property so I can't check how useful is this. One note. If switch on embedded Intel Graphics and set it priority then Radeon will wake too. (not for me).

wern apfel Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 No Intel Graphics here, it seems that it has something to do with the drive speed, can wake only the install from an old 160GB drive and not from SSD, newer HDD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I give a try, thanks! EDIT: Nop not working on my hack...my hdd is 1-2 year old. i dont have older disk right now to check. Old disk connected to sata2 or sata3 port? can you please connect your ssd to sata2 port and check sleep again? Wake works every time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our Systems only have the black screen, because of our AMD Graphics Cards. It's an AMD Graphics related Problem. And besides, my DSDT has the _WAK fix integrated since i build it. So this won't do the trick at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xenophon Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 Another stupid question from a non-affected user: Could this problem be similar to the dark-screen-on-boot with AMD cards and the iMac15,1 SMBIOS? That one is resolved by editing the AppleGraphicsDevicePolicy.kext (and changing "Config2" to "none" under "Mac-42FD25EABCABB274" in the appropriate place within: /Contents/PlugIns/AppleGraphicsDevicePolicy.kext/Contents/Info.plist If I had an AMD card I would try it before commenting here, but I don't so I can't; sorry if this, too, proves to be irrelevant.

Xen No, it's (most likely) not related. It's probably something in RadeonX4000 or something. No one is really sure of the actual cause right now.
