{ 0x6720, 0x51041558, CHIP_FAMILY_BARTS, "AMD Radeon HD
6990M", kElodea}
Comment 2 by Leo Volos, Mar 16, 2012
THANKS a lot guys! In gpuz I get blackcomb as chip name.Does it matter?Should you add this additional info into?
Comment 3 by Luca Grandi, Mar 16, 2012
I don't really know,because I based that string on the one of 6970,I have only changed the subsystem(the second sequence of number),I read the chip family on Internet and it's the same of 6970m(Barts). Let me know if it works.
Comment 4 by Luca Grandi, Mar 16, 2012
Thi is the one of 6970m taken from Ati.c(where you have to add the
string to see if it works):
{ 0x6720, 0x04BA1028, CHIP_FAMILY_BARTS, "AMD Radeon HD
6970M", kElodea },
Comment 5 by Luca Grandi, Mar 16, 2012
If it doesn't work try this:
{ 0x6720, 0x51041558, CHIP_FAMILY_BARTS, "AMD Radeon HD
6990M", kDuckweed },
Comment 6 by Leo Volos, Mar 16, 2012
sorry but I don't know how to do that but I m a quick learner. I own you if you saw me how...
Comment 7 by Luca Grandi, Mar 16, 2012
This is a funny situation,because neither I know what i have to do...I read somewhere that I have to do something with a file that is called Make...but i don't remenber,so actually I'm asking support...I hoped that you know what is supposed to do...
Comment 9 by Luca Grandi, Mar 16, 2012
Maybe try this tutorial http://prasys.info/2010/01/compiling-chameleon-a-newbies-howto/
Comment 10 by Luca Grandi, Mar 16, 2012
or this: https://sites.google.com/site/nozyczek/home/hackintosh/how-to-compile -chameleon-bootloader
Comment 12 by Luca Grandi, Mar 16, 2012
Last thing this is the last version of chameleon trunk: http://forge.voodooprojects.org/svn/chameleon/
Comment 16 by Leo Volos, Mar 17, 2012
first I tried the string
{ 0x6720, 0x51041558, CHIP_FAMILY_BARTS, "AMD Radeon HD
6990M", kElodea},
I then compile the chameleon and copy the files from sym folder to
usb installation of chameleon.
My laptop boots up 10.6.8 but I have a blank monitor (only an
external atached to hdmi is working)
I will try again with other string and I will keep you informed.
Comment 17 by Luca Grandi, Mar 17, 2012
If with the hdmi you can use your mac(so with desktop,finder and al the other thing,in a few words you can use the functions of your pc) the problem is the frame buffer,try to change Elodea with another one like Gibba(you have to keep the 'k'=> kGibba). Now I can't help you because I'm outside,but however if you go to the netkas forum you can find all the frame buffer string(the 6990M has got 5 ports).
Comment 18 by Luca Grandi, Mar 18, 2012
This is another one: kHydrilla If you want to see all the framebuffer: http://forum.netkas.org/index.php?topic=833.0
Comment 20 by Leo Volos, Mar 18, 2012
I did but all I get is video on my external only (through dvi and HDMI)monitor.I read that many laptops or have the same problem.It has to do with lvds connector and forwarding the video signal or something and the only solution is to make custom personalities for ati as says here http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=249642&st=0. But I m not able to do that yet. In info tab I get NI40 as vide card but it's is cosmetic.Its fully working and I don't care about that.the only thing worries me is the black screen on my laptop.
Comment 21 by Luca Grandi, Mar 18, 2012
I didn't understand one thing:if you use the hdmi,can you normaly use your Mac? Instead of using your laptop screen you use a tv,don't you? Can you boot with PCIRootUID=1 or 0 please? My problem is that currently I can't obtain that info...tomorrow I will see more in deep...
Comment 23 by Luca Grandi, Mar 19, 2012
Ooops I have just find out that the 6990M hasn't got 5 ports but
3...now I don't understand nothing...

Ok,I'm playing with Ati6000controller...Juncuns appears the best...I'm trying to get the DVI to work,so I have to ask you to test every framebuffer and find out one with working DVI...while I'm talking I have already tried: Pitchea Lotus Ipomea Cattail Duckweed Fanwort Muckgrass Junkus Please,keep me update about your progress
Comment 25 by Leo Volos, Mar 19, 2012
Hi.i m registered as LEONIDAS on tonymacx86 or kleondas. I tried to boot with PCIRootUID=1 or =0 but no image on my laptop monitor.Only through DVI or HDMI. I have previously put my 6990m ID on chameleon and I think I left it as kElodea. I will boot (10.6.8) with AtiConfig=Juncus (etc) and I let you know. The point is that I want picture on my laptop screen cause everything else as far as video is working good. What brand is your laptop?
Comment 26 by Luca Grandi, Mar 19, 2012
I'm Razorphyn,I have a Clevo p170hm. Please I need to check a thing, follow theese steps: Windows: download gpu-z; dumb the bios with GPU-Z (click on an image near the bios version),the file should be called Blackcomb.bin; put it on a USB. MAC: download this:nologic.com/redsock_bios_decoder.zip put it and Blackcomb.bin in the root ; open terminal and type: /redsock_bios_decoder < /Blackcomb.bin Copy and paste here the output
Comment 27 by Leo Volos, Mar 19, 2012

Ok,i wrote down this thing to modify Ati6000controller: http://www.mediafire.com/?16hddcj6tyr6o1j You need: -An hex editor; -Kext Utility. This is the Ipomoea personality: Personality: Ipomoea ConnectorInfo count in decimal: 3 Disk offset in decimal 501244 0000000 00 04 00 00 04 03 00 00 00 01 00 00 12 04 01 05 0000010 00 08 00 00 04 02 00 00 00 01 00 00 11 02 04 03 0000020 10 00 00 00 10 00 00 00 00 01 00 00 00 00 00 02 0000030 Search for(it's esadecimal): 00 04 00 00 04 03 00 00 00 01 00 00 12 04 01 05 00 08 00 00 04 02 00 00 00 01 00 00 11 02 04 03 Be sure that the next hext set corrisponds to the one of iponema(0000020 line); Modify the hex values with the one that I have provided. Go to: System->Library->Extension->Ati6000controller.kext !!!!!!!Make a backup copy of this kext on your USB!!!!!! Right click->Show content go trough the folders untill you find Mac-os or something similar->Ati6000controller->make a backup copy Open the file (Ati6000controller) with the hex editor; Search and Modify the hex values; Copy back the modified file to System->Library->Extension->Ati6000controller.kext->etc. Open Kext Utility to repair all->wait untill it has finished; AtiConfig=Ipomoea if AtiPorts!=3 => AtiPorts=3 or delete the value of AtiPorts and uncheck it; I don't know if it works...if something goes wrong: try with another AtiConfig=Juncus AtiPorts=4 if this don't work: Boot to windows->download Macdrive ->install and restart->boot again->now you can see your mac partition; Delete: System->Library->Extension->Ati6000controller.kext Boot to Mac !!!!! GraphicsEnabler=No !!!!!!->use Kext Utility to reinstall Ati6000Controller.kext Retry with others values. When you delete Ati6000Controller.kext you can use your pc screen in a resolution of 1024x756

Comment 38 by Leo Volos, Mar 21, 2012
Thanks for informing me.Because I m not so expert on changes of system files I waiting for you to tell me if it worked and if it is what steps to follow. Thanks in advance once more!
Comment 39 by Luca Grandi, Mar 24, 2012
Try one the kext at the bottom of the first post: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=277042&st=0# entry1805488 At the boot screen write AtiConfig=Juncus or Osmunda
Comment 40 by Leo Volos, Mar 25, 2012
I just returned from weekend.That's good news.Did you tried it?Does it working on 10.6.8?Do you managed to install osx Lion?If so how?
Comment 41 by Luca Grandi, Mar 26, 2012
I'm also Tori...just in case you can find also Dheed Currently I'm on Lion 10.7.3 I'm still trying with no success,only HDMI/DiaplyPort
Comment 42 by Leo Volos, Mar 28, 2012
Hi Luca.Could you postme some info on what steps did you take to install 10.7.3 on clevo? I m 10.6.8 but on desktop I have 10.7.3 I m trying the same way but no luck. have you enable lvds?
Comment 43 by Cosmosis Jones, Mar 29, 2012
What is the correct default framebuffer for this so i can set it in the trunk?

Accepted

Comment 44 by Luca Grandi, Mar 29, 2012
There isn't a correct default framebuffer as far as I know...you need to modify the Ati6000Controller... However I used iAtkos L2 but I think that you can use also the unnibest methood...the only one thing is that you have to boot with PCIRootUID=1 -x GraphicsEnabler=No Afeter that you have installed Lion you have to delete Ati6000Controller to use your internal screen with a resolution of 1024 or even lower...unfortunatly I can't use neither the lan nor the wifi...follow this thread to install kext: https://tonymacx86.com/viewtopic.php?t=25887&p=321753
Comment 45 by Luca Grandi, Mar 29, 2012
Do a backup copy of ATI6000Controller if you are going to delete it
Comment 48 by Luca Grandi, Apr 16, 2012
I haven't tried it yet,but... http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=250804&st=40 &p=1655159&#entry1655159
Comment 49 by Cosmosis Jones, May 5, 2012
the device is added to the chameleon bootloader. This does not mean it will work w/ the ATIX000Controller kexts. Please do not comment on this ticket anymore
