This custom Ktext is only setup for the "Gibba" personality so you need to specify that in your plist. Here is how mine is setup.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">

<string>Yes</string>
<key>GenerateCStates</key>
<string>Yes</string>
<key>GeneratePStates</key>
<string>Yes</string>
<key>UseKernelCache</key>
<string>Yes</string>
<key>AtiConfig</key>
<string>Gibba</string>
<key>AtiPorts</key>
<string>4</string>
<key>GraphicsEnabler</key>

Notice the section i bolded, you'll want to add that into your plist as I don't show it on yours.
 
To whom it may concern, this is the patched AMD6000Controller.kext for 10.9.3.

any chance for a 6870? i tried this. only 2 monitors working. hdmi port not working. if i use kudzu frambuffer on this kext or the stock kext i can get 3 but the card reads as 6xxx.
 
This kext only patches the Gibba personality, are you using that?
 
.
 
Hey Guys, I went ahead and updated the ktext for 10.9.4 and attached it. Tested and working smoothly on my GA6850 using gibba!

cheers!
