Okay here it is I am not injecting any frame buffer... Neither Fake id or anything... R9 380X everything is in my profile... In clover graphics menu inject ATI, that's all In Bios IGPU enable set as primary. Boot time is a little longer about 30 seconds more instead of booting instantly when I am injecting intel... Second display is plugged in
Motherboard. Of course I am on Sierra beta public

I just got REALLY excited until I realized that you're not the guy with a brand new Polaris GPU

Anyway, good to see it's working and performing well.
I don't think you have to plug anything into your motherboard. Attaching the 2nd display to your Radeon should be fine, too. If it isn't: Try using the recently discovered framebuffer.

as I understand for the frame buffer in the guide there is a ati connectors patch and a ati connectors data witch I dont understand where to take those value after that there is a ATI connectors controller witch I suppose is 9000 in my case then in graphic menu I have to write down the name of the frambuffer in FB Name then Vram 4095 video port 4

Just use "FBName = Lagotto", nothing else (and of course Inject/Ati = True).

I don't think there's a general issue as I've already seen positive reports. Things to try:

• RadeonFramebuffer vs. Exmoor vs. Baladi (they'll need a connector patch)
• Different ports on your GPU
• Hotplug your display when OS X has booted

I tried what you told me (except the connector patching. I don't know how to do it) and it still it doesn't work.
I have an R7 360 with stock id 0x665f1002 and I masked it 0x67b01002 with radeon framebuffer. This combo worked perfectly on El Cap. Anyhow, I will use the iGPU HD 4600

When you boot up with your iGPU, can you verify if the R7 360 (and an attached display) is properly recognized?
