^^ He is online everyday & not answering posts 4-5days old?
I understand that Devs do a hard work but when you've started a thread you must follow it.
pauldmps, you need to lower those anxiety levels
Concerning Chameleon GE, you were already answered on the forge issue (
156) and your specific card was added.
About the Muxless thing, i have no idea about how OS X handles it. I only have access to nVidia's Optimus,
but i still didn't had time to try OS X in it. Same thing with Lion and i can't run it on the desktop so, can't help with it.
But, you can always try uninstalling Intel's drivers to see if you can get the ATI ones working; if you are successful with ATI,
then check if Muxless is viable and if not, the choice is yours on the graphics to keep.
For now it's all i have...
I have 10.7 Lion and also the AMD Radeon HD 6470M graphics in my Dell Vostro 3350 notebook, but this notebook has also the integrated Sandy Bridge Intel HD 3000 Onboard Graphics.
...
dontomaso, same as above, except for anxiety
yep, Intel seems to work ootb with MacBookPro8,2/8,3 at least; 8,1 uses only Intel (Mactracker info) so i don't think it will do.
About how Chameleon works, from a couple of posts ago:
... all GE does is write/pass some values to ioreg device tree,
that the drivers expect to find, similar to what can be done with DSDT editing.
if you want to know what's "written" check the code,
ati.c; basically it's down to write the device path (
devprop_add_device)
and the stuff that's not commented out on "
dev_prop_t ati_devprop_list", using
devprop_add_list function and pass it
much like using "device-properties" key. The rest is done by kernel and kexts.
You guessed right about the funny FB names
yep, the FB's changed place on 10.6.8 and above, like you figured;
now we are limited to the ones present on the used Controller.
Throw me your subsys id/ven so i can add an entry for your card.
Is device id 6760 correct?
