Deprecated - 3/21/14, see Integrated and Discrete Graphics, Working Together
Update - 2/27/2013, Nvidia 6xx support - credit: jwk
Update - 3/17/2013, added HD3000/HD4000 dsdt injection (with GE=No)
Update - 4/5/2013, AirPlay Mirroring working with HD3000/Nvidia 6xx
Update - 4/6/2013, AirPlay Mirroring not working with HD3000/Nvidia 6xx
Mountain Lion support of HD3000/HD4000 integrated graphics or AMD or Nvidia discrete graphics separately; one or the other, is well known. For Sandy Bridge and Ivy Bridge systems with HD3000/HD4000 integrated graphics and AMD HD 5xxx or HD 6xxx or Nvidia GT/S/X 4xx, 5xx or 6xx discrete graphics, both integrated and discrete graphics systems can be fully enabled at the same time in Mountain Lion. Easy to set-up; plugin the displays, set the bios and restart.
This guide provides a solution to verify your integrated and discrete graphics work at the same time. Feel free to customize this solution to your requirements. If you find your system does not successfully boot, use this guide for recovery.
Each supported configuration enables AirPlay Mirroring with the macmini5,1 and/or the imac12,2 system definition.
