ATI and possibly nVIDIA resolution patch (based on prasys' 915resolution port)

Check this topic; besides this patch, that's the only way i know.
I mean, there must be other ways (Fassl mentions one on post 224), but they are not implemented, afaik.

Yap, I also checked the vbios patching post on insanelymac... But IMHO, it is a little bit too dangerous, wait... no..., risky , and also not challenging enough for myself

As I'm coming from the Linux world, I will check what's happening with their uvesafb and my graphic card/display. If I manage to get some high-and-not-in-the-vbios resolutions, I'm currently thinking about hacking Chameleon and integrating this uvesafb in it... But that's a long way to go

Hello! Sry for my newbish question but I really don't know how to use this patch. When I'm copying boot file to root directory and replace existing one (of course I've got a backup) process of patching VESA hangs at "First standard VESA mode on offset...". I don't know what to do with this diff file, too. So if someone can help me with this I'll be grateful!

Thanks in advance

Hi guys,

first I would like to thank you for doing a great job.

I would like to ask if this patch is possible to use for integrated i5 Intel HD graphics? If so, I would like to help on it since I have a laptop with mentioned GPU. I saw there is an debug image - where can I get this exact patch with debug image?

BR,

iostres,
read the 1st post carefully, the answer is there...
It only works with Intel chipsets up to 900 series.
