Here's the problem I'm having now. I set GraphicsEnabler=No in my plist and it will boot now. But during boot I get a couple weird error messages now. I get "Error Parsing Plist" and then it takes me to the list of all the partitions to choose from but doesn't auto select my Lion install like it used to.

I then have to hit enter to get Lion to boot. Then after I've done that I get another error - "Errors encountered while starting up the computer. Waiting 5 seconds..."

What did I do wrong? Again, appreciate the help!

P.S.
Here's my org.chameleon.Boot.plist:

Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
	<key>Kernel</key>
	<string>mach_kernel</string>
	<key>Kernel Flags</key>
	<string>arch=i386</string>
	<key>GraphicsEnabler</key>
	<string>No</string>
	<key>Timeout</key>
	<string>2</string>
	<key>Legacy Logo</key>
	<string>Yes</string>
	<key>EthernetBuiltIn</key>
	<string>Yes</string>
	<key>AtiPorts</keys>
	<string>3</string>
</dict>
</plist>

I suspect the section

<key>AtiPorts</keys>
<string>3</string>

should be without the extra s in "keys"

<key>AtiPorts</key>
<string>3</string>

o_O I feel like an idiot. I'll try that when I get home. Thanks man.
 
Yeah, that did it. I guess the correct syntax is important. :)

About the not booting automatically-I ran the newest MultiBeast and it works again.

Since now I have GraphicsEnabler=No does that need to be in my plist file? What if I just deleted those two lines? Would that break my install?

And, last question. Why exactly did I do this AtiPorts=3 thing anyway? Is it supposed to be more "vanilla" or something? The e-mail I dot said "If you've had trouble initiating graphics using this card" but I've never had any graphics problems in the past with this card...

Thanks.
 
I think you don't need it in the plist file.

Unfortunately I don't even know waht effect produces AtiPOrts=3
 
Since Installing Lion 10.7.2, I can no longer get to my desktop using DVI. It boots up ok, but when it should load the desktop after the white apple screen, it just goes black.

Still works with HDMI, but I prefer using DVI.

I am using Atiports=3 so does anyone have any ideas?!

Thanks
