Hi guys!

I'm a newbie in all this hackintosh... I try to find some kexts or drivers or whatever that could use my graphics cards Radeon HD 7670m (2GB) and Intel HD 4000 (Laptop: Toshiba Satellite L855-14J) already for days. Could you provide me the correct ones for the El Capitan, if you have them with a little guide how to install/patch..., please?

Thank you in advance!

Follow the Clover guide linked from the FAQ.

Note: Discrete GPU is not supported in dual-GPU switched configuration. See FAQ.

Well, I've tried already to replace the config.plist with the recommended ones there, but it doesn't change anything on the mac, I mean the graphics still doesn't change to hd 4000, it stays on the one like on the picture with only 3 MegaBytes and 1024px resolution instead of 1366px:

Btw, is that important if I did it in this order:
1. Installed OS X
2. Replaced the config.plist on the EFI partition with the customized ones from here: https://github.com/RehabMan/OS-X-Clover-Laptop-Config
3. Restarted the PC
Should it recognize in this case? Or should I first replace the config.plist and then install os x? Or the order is not important?
I followed the guide by the start of "Choosing a config.plist" section:
http://www.tonymacx86.com/el-capita...de-booting-os-x-installer-laptops-clover.html
I also tried to check if there are some settings to enable/disable intel graphics in the bios, but nothing. The bios is very poor in settings...

Download patchmatic: https://bitbucket.org/RehabMan/os-x-maciasl-patchmatic/downloads/RehabMan-patchmatic-2015-0107.zip
Extract the 'patchmatic' binary from the ZIP. Copy it to /usr/bin, such that you have the binary at /usr/bin/patchmatic.

In terminal,
Code:
if [ -d ~/Downloads/RehabMan ]; then rm -R ~/Downloads/RehabMan; fi
mkdir ~/Downloads/RehabMan
cd ~/Downloads/RehabMan
patchmatic -extract

Note: It is easier if you use copy/paste instead of typing the commands manually.

Post contents of Downloads/RehabMan directory (as ZIP).

Also, post ioreg: http://www.tonymacx86.com/audio/58368-guide-how-make-copy-ioreg.html. Please, use the IORegistryExplorer v2.1 attached to the post! DO NOT reply with an ioreg from any other version of IORegistryExplorer.app.

And output from:
Code:
kextstat|grep -y acpiplat
kextstat|grep -y appleintelcpu
kextstat|grep -y applelpc

Also, post EFI/Clover folder as ZIP (press F4 at main Clover screen before collecting). Please eliminate 'themes' directory, especially if you have an overabundance of themes installed.

Also post output of:
Code:
sudo touch /System/Library/Extensions && sudo kextcache -u /

Compress all files as ZIP. Do not use external links. Attach all files using site attachments only.

According to ioreg, your computer does not have HD4000.

Perhaps you have it disabled in BIOS.

My PC doesn't have it? This means that it has it (Processor Graphics: Intel HD Graphics 4000), doesn't it?
http://ark.intel.com/products/71459/Intel-Core-i7-3630QM-Processor-6M-Cache-up-to-3_40-GHz
And if it doesn't have, what could I do, I don't have other graphics, just the Radeon HD 7670m and it couldn't be patched for sure?
Now I can't use the Mac in this condition, because when I open some apps or just watch some pages in safari/chrome... the screen flashes with black and white lines.

Just because the CPU has it doesn't mean the OEM enabled it.

Check your BIOS settings. And post output from 'lspci -nn' in Linux Terminal.

If you have only Radeon, you'll need to research on how to enable it. I have no experience with Radeon hardware. Google might help you.

I've just checked and I really don't have it :| I'll try to find some solutions then for the radeon although I haven't found any cases for El Capitan... But anyway, thanks for your responding.

Please fix your profile. It is inaccurate.
