I have a strange problem and I can't really figure out what the missing piece is.
After installing the lastest Chimera I gave my HD4000 GFX a go. I was previously using a Radeon HD 5770.
As far as I can tell, OS X 10.7.4 recognises the IGFX and loads the following kexts...
ok my impression was that BridgeHelper was made to upgrade the kernel just before upgrading an already set up system to Ivy...
well in any case it worked well for me...;)
I tried to use Unibeast for OSX 10.7.4 on ivy bridge (i7-3770k on GA-Z77MX-D3H) and got stuck in a reboot loop just before the installation app starts.
I fixed this by replacing the unibeast mach_kernel with the kernel provided in the 2012 MBP update.
I had to copy that kernel again into the...
Yes the single slot XFX 5770 worked perfectly with Chimera 1.4 and the iMac 2011 Sandy Bridge drivers.
Primary DVI works, I haven't plugged a screen on the secondary DVi and MiniDisplay port but they both are recognised in System Profiler.
BUT:
- Power drain and (nearly inaudible) noise level...
No luck on integrated gfx so far. Honestly I have given up and stopped trying a while ago, but today I will recieve a single-slot XFX 5770. If it works, it will cut down the machines power drain. I'll post result later today.
There is NO NEED to reinstall the whole system from scratch.
If your system boots nicely and is running stable, you just have to download the Chimera Installer from the downloads section of this site together with BridgeHelper.
First, backup your custom kernel by renaming it or copy it...
NEWSFLASH
- Chimera 1.4 Working
- Vanilla Kernel 10.7.3 installed with BridgeHelper Working
- FSB and busratio need no kernel flags anymore.
- CPU now poperly recognised as Core i7
:thumbup:
Does that mean there will be no need to specify fsb and busratio in the future? The step over to the vanilla kernel would defintely be the final one to reach perfection 8-)

Here are the necessary steps:
Connect your monitor to the integrated gfx port (DVI tested, it works) and leave the PCI-E graphics card out of your system for now.
Start and set your BIOS [enter BIOS by pressing F2] to check for...
