Quick question as to whether anyone out there has an Asus EAH Radeon HD5770. I've got mine running fine under what I believe to be a vanilla install of 10.7.1 (My cinebench scores are 5 points better than under SL) and I haven't had any issue with getting my DVI port to work properly without any edits to kexts. However, my system reports that there are two cables connected to my card, when there is only one. I ask because my device info is identical to other 5770 cards, but I have a non-reference port configuration and I'm wondering if anyone might be able to help me sort it out. I've been reading over at Netkas.org and I have discovered that some people have been modifying some of the framebuffer personalities themselves (not just the kexts), but I'm not a computer wiz and I'm having trouble understanding what all the numbers mean.
I have three ports 1XDVI (working) 1XVGA (Reported as connected in sysprofiler) and 1XHDMI (which seems to be the passive port).
I understand that without modification, Multibeast/chimera are able to get two DVI ports working with the unmodified 10.7 driver kexts. This is what I believe is causing the false report.
In the end the issue is actually that I have to mirror my screens to ensure that I don't loose my mouse every now and then when I move it too quickly to the right or left. However, I wouldn't mind learning about how to correct this problem, so that IF in the future someone else buys my card and needs help, I can pass it on.
Thanks,
J
