Help on Firepro w7100

Third, modifying the FrameBuffer.

@simin63 Can you post the details for modifying the framebuffer properly? I'm trying to run the W7100 with RadeonDeInit and Spoofing the Device ID - according to the instructions found here:

<key>Graphics</key>
   <dict>
       <key>Inject</key>
       <dict>
           <key>ATI</key>
           <true/>
       </dict>
       <key>FBName</key>
           <string>Lagotto</string>
       <key>RadeonDeInit</key>
       <true/>
   </dict>

       <key>FakeID</key>
           <dict>
               <key>ATI</key>
                   <string>0x69391002</string>
           </dict>
       </dict>

If I use the Lagotto Framebuffer I keep getting a blackscreen, if I choose Baladi or Maltese I can boot properly but the generic RadeonFramebuffer is used and my second display is not recognized.

Hi, W7100 can be used under Yosemite 10.10.5.
First, according to the Florian's suggest, I have modified the both the files of info.plist in the packages of AMD9000Contoller.kext and AMDRadeonX4000.kext, respectively. I have added the device id of 0x692b1002 to the device list in the item of IOPCIMatch, then save the file and repair permission using kext wizard.

Second, update the clover to the version of 3438. after rebooting the system, you can view that AMD Firepro w7100 is listed in the clover boot graphics option.

Third, modifying the FrameBuffer.

But, there is still a problem left that the graphics card is shown as Radeon R9xxx. I have no time to fix this problem.

What FrameBuffer did you use?
