Aticonfig=Vervet, doesn't work

[pokeperla21]

Hey.

I have a doubt with my video card.

I have the Radeon HD 5770 and is listed in the ati.c

497	    { 0x68B8,0x25431002, CHIP_FAMILY_JUNIPER,"ATI Radeon HD 5770",kVervet},

When I try to GraphicsEnabler=Yes Aticonfig=Vervet, doesn't work.

But if I try to GraphicsEnabler=Yes Aticonfig=Baboon, works.

Why not work with Aticonfig=Vervet?

Perhaps your bootloader is pretty old -
with an actual Chimera you should get:

ATI Radeon HD 5700/6700 Series in AppleSystemProfiler ASP

And I am using AtiConfig=Vervet

 

[sonicseamus]

First of all, what exact model of 5770 do you have?

Second, update to the latest Chimera for better support.

Third, if you're getting acceleration, then what's the problem? Who cares what framebuffer you're using?
