HD6570 dual monitors / framebuffer personality issues

[hydreds]

Correct use GraphicsEnabler=Yes with Aticonfig=...???

Two ways

1) Pass arguments through Chimera at boot up
2) Change plist.

Looks like you have tried all. May be Mini HDMI issue.
Pithecia and 3 works for me.
DVI works only if HDMI is connected. Shows as dual monitor.
Regular HDMI thats what I have works with Brushels, Pithecia.
DVI doesn't work.

Startup says "Device in slot: Slot --1" later flash lightning video, normal...???

Didn't understand the above.

I find cable Mini Hdmi, probably monitor primary this port

Verbose mode i read "Device in slot: Slot --1"

My card http://img577.imageshack.us/img577/6117/p1110090.jpg

I thought GraphisEnabler=Yes for cards supported

Or GraphicsEnabler=No AtiConfig=Pithecia

No GraphicsEnabler=Yes AtiConfig=Pithecia

Now I understand GraphicsEnabler=No is a framebuffer

"Now I understand GraphicsEnabler=No is a framebuffer"

yes, if no personality ( Bulrushes, Pithecia etc..) are set, use GraphicsEnabler=No. To my knowledge GE=No is kind of default. It loads default Kexts (drivers).

Just make sure video card in PCI slot 1. If 16 in slot one of 16 if 8 slot one of 8.
try all 6xxx series personalities. ( at Chimera boot load not in plist).

Let me tell you whats the problem with my card.

It works with HDMI all the time. DVI does not work on its own.
If HDMI is connected DVI works. My hackintosh see it as dual moniter. If I disconect HDMI DVI doesn't work.

As you said HDMI is getting priority (primary) over DVI. I am looking how to solve this problem. There is no way ( to my knowledge) to set primary or secondary monitor in Chimera.

so
