[solved] External Monitor Not Detected (HD 630)

[N850HP6]

Hi!

I am running on a Clevo N850HP6 from Eluktronics. This has a Kaby Lake with Intel HD 630 graphics built-in (as well as an NVIDIA GTX 1060). I am trying to connect a monitor to the external display port which is tied to the Intel HD 630 GPU, but it will not detect. I have no problem with acceleration since my dock is transparent and the about page reads "Intel HD Graphics 630 1536 MB" instead of 7MB. A related issue is that when I boot with the monitor connected, it shows the Apple logo until the progress bar is half full and then both monitors go black. If I hold the power button down on the laptop for about 3 seconds then push a key on the keyboard, the login screen will appear on the laptop screen only.

The GTX 1060 ports do not detect anything either, which sucks because I'd really like to run three external monitors on this laptop. I installed the web drivers for the 1060 but it is still not detected.

Another problem which is probably not related is that I cannot get the internal laptop speakers to detect. I have added the AppleALC kext with no success. A USB sound card will work though.

I have attached my debug zip. Thanks for any help. I have never used a hackintosh before but I am eager to learn.

You should try enabling the 0105 port.
(ig-platform-id 0x591b0000 has only 0204 and 0306).
You can enable it (trade 0306 for 0105) if you enable these two patches in config.plist/Devices/Properties/PciRoot(0)/Pci(0x02,0):

framebuffer-con1-alldata=<01050a00 00080000 87010000 02040a00 00080000 87010000 ff000000 01000000 20000000>
framebuffer-con1-enable=1

They are right there in your config.plist but disabled by default (with #).
