I recently upgraded my GTX 970 to the Sapphire Pulse RX 580 8GB. I did nothing to my Clover configuration. I simply installed the new card and booted.
Everything worked like a charm out of the box with one exception. I have a three-monitor setup: two connect via Displayport and they both work fine. The third, an older 30" Dell, connects via dual-link DVI. If I try to boot with the 30" Dell connected (either by itself or with either or both of the Displayport monitors), the boot screen never appears. If I connect the 30" Dell after the system has booted successfully with only the other two monitors connected, the system immediately freezes and I have to hard boot.
I've done some searching, and keep coming across conflicting advice: use WhateverGreen and Lilu, don't use WEG and Lilu. Use RadeonInit and Inject ATI=Yes, don't do those things. And then there is the whole framebuffer edit issue which also has gobs of confusing and contradictory information. (Even the lengthy AMD guide on this site seems to be in need of update.)
Can someone kindly direct me to the current state of affairs so I can get the third monitor up and running? I am currently using High Sierra 10.13.6, running on a Haswell 4790k and Gigabyte Gaming 3 mobo. I plan to do a clean install of Mojave once I get this issue ironed out.
Thank you.
