****DISREGARD FOR NOW****
So, Ive been fighting with the external display (DP display to my TV) on my 8460p/dock for a couple days now... and discovered that the DP and DVI are somehow turned on together, but it seems that the DVI port is what turns on the DP...
Im still testing this setup as I've just tonight discovered this (I could get VGA to work without problem... but the DP wouldn't work no matter what config i set until i plugged in a DVI to VGA adapter (without a VGA cable connected)...
The dock is p/n: VB041AA
Most recent config plist that i used was rehab's suggestion
https://github.com/RehabMan/OS-X-Clover-Laptop-Config (I am using HD3000 with 1366x768) (Same as the bundle downloaded from dropbox from
http://www.tonymacx86.com/hp-proboo...-install-yosemite-hp-laptops-clover-uefi.html)
I am currently doing a clean install to test this theory and will pass on the information. (Also having issues with PBI and getting my onboard sound to work... needing to use multibeast to get my sound kexts loaded... and haven't fixed external sound quite yet...
I don't know if this all is too much or too little info, or if I'm missing something (I'm not a noob at this, but by no means am a pro either... I'm somewhere in the middle and only understand a little bit more than the rudimentary function of most of the parts
)
hope this helps someone...
- EDIT #1 - Boot with Clover install USB, with DVI connector in, TV shows a picture in 1080p from the DP, laptop screen is blank. Remove DVI connector after install process begins, both laptop and tv display a picture.
- EDIT #2 - It seems that booting without the DVI will disable the DP after install begins. (removing it will allow both displays to function once it is initialized, keeping the DVI connected will keep the laptop display disabled.
- EDIT #3 - Looks like PBI disables the external display (at least thus far without messing with any patches)
- EDIT #4 - Disable the PBI VGA patch in clover, enable the PBI HDMI audio patch and everything seems to work (TV shows a display, laptop screen is blank... haven't yet overcome this)..
-MAJOR props to rehab for his dedication and work on this project as a whole...
