Could you please try to write a clear (as far as possible) tutorial for us? :)
 
Thanks, but I think the more interesting log is the dmesg log not the bdmesg log which is just the bootloader log. And text is fine, no need to post a zillion screenshots.

No offense, but now I really think that you don't really know what you're talking about, and that you just managed to boot the card without acceleration. You need to have the latest build from the new macbook pros to try to enable full opengl acceleration, and that is clearly missing from your "method".

Let the gurus like netkas handle it and provide you with a full working solution in a few days and stop spreading confusion amongst the users.
 
Guys- we do NOT allow Mountain Lion Install methods. The Kepler stuff isn't working in 10.7.4 yet. Be patient.

I'm thinking we need one thread for this. Any mind if we make the other the main Kepler thread?

Sure thing, lets make the other one work as the main thread.
 
I took a look at the AppleIntelFramebufferCapri.kext and AppleIntelHD4000Graphics.kext and in both kext's Info.plist files I found the following lines:
Code:
<key>IOPCIPrimaryMatch</key>
<string>0x01528086 0x01568086 0x01628086 0x01668086</string>
As I'm curious like a cat I used Intel's documentation of the Ivy Bridge CPUs to demystify the device ids:
  • 0x01528086 -> HD 2500 (desktop)[/*:m:2uv0c1ow]
  • 0x01568086 -> ? (maybe mobile version)[/*:m:2uv0c1ow]
  • 0x01628086 -> HD 4000 (desktop)[/*:m:2uv0c1ow]
  • 0x01668086 -> HD 4000 mobile version[/*:m:2uv0c1ow]
Looks like Apple's graphics driver also supports HD 2500 and we might have more luck with these units as we had with the Sandybridge's HD 2000 graphics?

This leads me to the most interesting question: has anybody already tried to get HD 2500 running?
