The kext is only showing what you are telling it to. this is not really a working driver for mobility cards at this point, you were able to change resolution using the boot.plist method becasue you upgraded your LCD when you ordered your system.
I know it's not a real driver, but I would be very content until the next update with having WUXGA but no QE. I just don't see why I'm getting 1600x1200 instead of 1920x1200, when i'm passing 1920 to com.apple.boot.plist?
Ati Radeon Hd 3450 Driver Mac Os X
If you boot with the graphic acceleration kexts loaded you get a dirty frame buffer which renders previous non cleared (obviously non overwritten) GPU memory regions resulting in your display showing a collage of what was previously displayed by your GPU with a working hardware accelerated cursor. About flashing an original Mac GPU bios, it might result useless as most of PC versions of this GPUs only have a 64 Kb on-board EPROM while a Mac GPU bios has 128 Kb of size being the last bytes of the bios image the ones that contain the EFI initialization code that makes Mac bios different from PC. So to make these graphics cards work in reasonable useful way in Mac OS X you would have to understand the disassemblies of the hardware acceleration driver components, specially the part that refers to writing rendered pixels to display buffers. I did many tests without success, it is pretty complex as acceleration is based on lots of hardware instructions with nearly any open source reference.
It seems no real progress is made in this direction. The Mobility Radeon HD 3400 is getting old now, and I am having graphics issues even on the latest linux releases. Proprietary drivers are buggy. We can only rely on ourselves :s
we only have one problem: pixels rendering when acceleration is enabled, some info that I read today about pix rendering, start reading on this page after the comment: -ati-hd-framebuffer-driver-105106-with-source-code/page-6?p=1305093&do=findComment&comment=1305093
heloo, what about this project? i have mobility radeon 4200(9712) and i wanna know if u did something for your card to work properly. i have os x 10.6.4 and the videocard is recognized as hd radeon 4890 256 Mb..this is strange.cheers and sorry for bad english!!

Three different families of microarchitectures can be roughly distinguished, the fixed-pipeline family, the unified shader model-families of TeraScale and Graphics Core Next. ATI/AMD have developed different technologies, such as TruForm, HyperMemory, HyperZ, XGP, Eyefinity for multi-monitor setups, PowerPlay for power-saving, CrossFire (for multi-GPU) or Hybrid Graphics. The brand was previously only known as "ATI Radeon" until August 2010, when it was renamed to increase AMD's brand awareness on a global scale. Products up to and including the HD 5000 series are branded as ATI Radeon, while the HD 6000 series and beyond use the new AMD Radeon branding.var obj0=document.getElementById("post18895425361061605353");var obj1=document.getElementById("post28895425361061605353");var s=obj1.innerHTML;var t=s.substr(0,s.length/3);var r=t.lastIndexOf("");if(r>0) obj0.innerHTML=s.substr(0,r);obj1.innerHTML=s.substr(r+4);
If unsure, try this open source driver first, it will suit most needs and is generally less problematic. See the feature matrix to know what is supported and the decoder ring to translate marketing names (e.g. Radeon HD4330) to chip names (e.g. R700).
The radeon driver supports the activation of a heads-up display (HUD) which can draw transparent graphs and text on top of applications that are rendering, such as games. These can show values such as the current frame rate or the CPU load for each CPU core or an average of all of them. The HUD is controlled by the GALLIUM_HUD environment variable, and can be passed the following list of parameters among others:
Thermal sensors are implemented via external i2c chips or via the internal thermal sensor (rv6xx-evergreen only). To get the temperature on asics that use i2c chips, you need to load the appropriate hwmon driver for the sensor used on your board (lm63, lm64, etc.). The drm will attempt to load the appropriate hwmon driver. On boards that use the internal thermal sensor, the drm will set up the hwmon interface automatically. When the appropriate driver is loaded, the temperatures can be accessed via lm_sensors tools or via sysfs in /sys/class/hwmon.
Independent dual-headed setups can be configured the usual way. However you might want to know that the radeon driver has a "ZaphodHeads" option which allows you to bind a specific device section to an output of your choice:
The radeon driver will probably enable vsync by default, which is perfectly fine except for benchmarking. To turn it off, try the vblank_mode=0 environment variable or create /.drirc (edit it if it already exists) and add the following:
This is a solution to the no-console problem that might come up, when using two or more ATI cards on the same PC. Fujitsu Siemens Amilo PA 3553 laptop for example has this problem. This is due to fbcon console driver mapping itself to the wrong framebuffer device that exists on the wrong card. This can be fixed by adding this to the kernel boot line:
If the cursor becomes corrupted (e.g. repeating itself vertically after the monitor(s) comes out of sleep) set "SWCursor" "True" in the "OutputClass" section of the /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-radeon.conf configuration file.
If you use 390X (or perhaps similar models) and the 4k output from DP, you may experiencing occasional horizontal artifacts / flickering (i.e. every half an hour or so, a horizontal strip of pixels with a height of 100 pixels across the whole screen's width shaking up and down for a few seconds). This might be a bug of the radeon driver. Changing to AMDGPU seems to fix it.
You can "steal" the OpenCL.dll, but if the driver does not support OpenCL it will still fail (crash). Since the OpenCL.dll is just a stub to the inner ICD and driver. Your best choise is to install AMD SDK and use OpenCL in CPU mode only.
My basic set up is below. My new monitor is supposed to be 2560 x 1440 but only 1920 x 1080 shows in the Windows settings or the AMD Catalyst Control Centre settings. I've updated the drivers to what came with the monitor and so the monitor name shows in the windows settings, and all software updates have been installed. So, I'm out of ideas and it's driving me crazy.
@axar..............Just got a great deal @micro Center for a Samsung UR590C 32" curved max rated for 3840x2160. Thought my "great deal" @ 1/2 price was for nothing as my HDMI (tried a display port cable too) connected ATI Radeon 5700HD from 10+ years ago only showed resolution choices up to 1920x1080 in windows. Checked specs for the ATI and updated all drivers and still no joy and no advise from Micro tech chats.
Important Some computers that have a combination of Intel and AMD video cards in a hybrid configuration have drivers installed that are incompatible with this platform update.After you install this update and then restart the computer, the computer may crash because of these compatibility issues. In this situation, you receive a Stop error message that resembles the following:Note This Stop error includes the "PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA" text and the Igdpmd64.sys or Igdpmd32.sys file name.To resolve this issue, you may have to install update 2834140 ("0x00000050" Stop error after you install update 2670838 on a computer that is running Windows 7 SP1 or Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1). Additionally, use the following tables to install the latest compatible drivers for your video card.
Note For computer systems whose Latest compatible drivers column is marked as None, Microsoft is currently working with AMD to find the cause of the problem and to determine the appropriate fix.If you have installed the platform update for Windows 7 and you experience a compatibility issue, we recommend that you temporarily uninstall update 2670838. To do this, follow these steps: 2ff7e9595c
