Fix HDMI port for MSI R6850 Cyclone 1GD5 Power Edition/OC

[Gary_G]

Pity you can't test it for me danip.

Why don't you post yours as well, would love to see if I missed anything on my side.
Which is possible, as I remarked in my earlier post, I'm no programmer, just love a challenge and to fiddle.

Thanks for your response.

I just compared both our files (via KDiff3) and they're exactly the same 8).

Firstly, all credit goes to lionel luther 2011 and danip for inspiring me to attempt to change the AMD6000Controller.kext for OS X Mavericks.
I'm no programmer.
It was a question of monkey see, monkey do and it worked.
Working kext is attached.

1 - Using Chameleon v2.2svn r2286
2 - org.chameleon.Boot.plist settings; GraphicsEnabler=Yes, AtiConfig=Gibba, AtiPorts=4

Tested;
Both DVI ports (QE/CI 100%)
Checked in terminal with ioreg | grep ATY and Gibba Framebuffer is loaded.
About this Mac, Graphics is reported as AMD Radeon HD 6850 1024 MB

Unable to Test;
HDMI and HDMI Audio
DP

Would appreciate it if someone could test these and give me feedback.

What's version should I use for this file? 10.9 or 10.9.1?

Thanks,

I'm using it on 10.9.1 jackie233.
I suspect that it will on 10.9 as well.

I'm using it on 10.9.1 jackie233.
I suspect that it will on 10.9 as well.

Hi Gary_G,

I will upgrade to 10.9.1

Thanks,


I had update to 10.9.1 and apply the kext.
It works well with HDMI(not test audio).

Thanks for Gary_G, danip, and lionel luther 2011

Enjoy!

Hi danip

Hope you have been well.

Back to the old problem with Mavericks 10.9.2.

Can get 10.9.2 to display both DVI ports with GraphicsEnabler=No.
QE/CI fully working but no Framebuffer loaded.

And, About This Mac, back to AMD Radeon HD 6xxx 1024 MB.
Used the previous AMD6000Controller.kext but no go.

Any pointers you can give me to work on?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Regards

Hi danip

Previously missed your post on the updated kext for 10.9.2.

Works like a charm.
Thanks.
