Re: VGA port fix for Intel HD 3000

I finally got back to trying to get my VGA output to work. I think had tried everthing except for Pippo's editing of the AppleIntelSNBGraphicsFB binary. So I downloaded and installed "Hex Fiend" and I edited the table to look like what Pippo suggested.

AppleIntelSNBGraphics binary patched first FrameBuffer table

original FB table
0102 0400 1007 0000 1007 0000
0503 0000 0200 0000 3000 0000
0205 0000 0004 0000 0700 0000
0304 0000 0004 0000 0900 0000
0406 0000 0004 0000 0900 0000

Patch 0503 -> 0602

The four lines should be
0503 - Internal LCD -> 0602 - VGA
0205 - HDMI
0304 - VDI
0406 - HDMI

After I figured out how to get the new edited binary to replace the old one and installed the modified kext, my VGA output finally works without having a DVI monitor plugged in. The VGA output had mirrored the DVI outout, but now it seems to be the primary monitor. If I try to plug in the DVI monitor as well, the VGA monitor goes black and it looks like the DVI output is an extended desktop, but I can't get the system dock or finder bar to tell where I am.

At least this is progress. Any idea of why plugging in the DVI monitor kills the VGA output?

Thanks!

You all have Gigabyte boards, right? Any idea what to do with, say, P8H61? I made a hack based on that board (the LE/CSM version) for my stepdad last month, and was planning on using the DVI and VGA heads (i3 2105) but of course discovered the VGA doesn't work. :-\

Since this hack seems to need a DSDT edit, what would the corresponding edit by on the Asus board??
 
YOU ARE THE BEST!!!!!!!!! I've been searching for a solution on the internet for WEEKS and i finally found yours and tried it and my QE/Ci FINALLY WORKS!!! no longer do i have to look at horizontal lines and slow animations XD thank you so much!

EDIT: Gahh spoke too soon...So I'm using an old 15" Dell VGA Monitor and There are no longer artifacts but iMovie says I dont have Quartz Extreme support, cover flow in iTunes doesn't work, all Pages documents when opened appear to be blank, I cant view photos in iPhoto or Preview, Launchpad is super slow...So there's still currently a lot that I can't do yet, can anyone help?

Hey! I've tried using the edited .kexts and it fixed the artifacts, although there is no translucent bar, cover flow in iTunes, and the most annoying is the extremely laggy launchpad...although before i install the kexts there were artifacts...is there such a thing as half QE/CI? how would i fix this because i cant seem to find anyone with the same problem?

            {
                Name (_ADR, 0x00020000)

                Method (_DSM, 4, NotSerialized) 
                {

                Store (Package (0x06)
                  {
                      "AAPL,snb-platform-id", Buffer (0x04)  {0x00, 0x00, 0x01, 0x00 }, 
                      "hda-gfx", Buffer (0x09) {"onboard-2"},
                      "device-id", Buffer (0x04) {0x16, 0x01, 0x00, 0x00}
                  }, Local0)
                  DTGP (Arg0, Arg1, Arg2, Arg3, RefOf (Local0))
                  Return (Local0)
              }

       OperationRegion (IGDP, PCI_Config, 0x40, 0xC0)

what works:
QE/CI enabled on VGA
Rotation - OK


what to fix:
Full Resolution - No
my Monitor Acer AL1914 has 1280x1024 res, but i got 1152x864.
If i try to change resolution i lost monitor's sync and get black screen.
( I need to boot with " -x -v" option and delete /Library/Preferences/com.apple.windowserver.plist to
get back 1152x864 resolution and fix black screen)



Best Regards !!

Hey!

I'm currently trying to make this work with Yosemite. I'm using the hackintosh as a home enterntainmet system, so I must use VGA out and need QE/CI.

So I'm testing this on a blank drive now. So far I could manage to make it work with VGA out on native resolution by changing the values from 503 to 602.

The problem is there's no QE/CI and sys profiler says no kext loaded. I'm a bit stuck here. Tried almost everything.

Any ideas?
