ATI/AMD GraphicsEnabler support (legacy, modules & missing devices)!

Hello,

I wanted to add my results with my legacy x1300 pro 0x7183, with dual DVI and sVHS (low profile, only heatsink)

Trying under Lion 10.7.1, Chamaleon 2

⁃ download i386_1515 from Azimutz post http://forum.voodooprojects.org/index.php?topic=1959.0
⁃ copy ATiGraphicsEnabler.dylib to /Extra/modules
⁃ copy boot to /
⁃ edit /Extra/org.chamaleon.Boot.plist to add

   <key>GraphicsEnabler</key>
   <string>Yes</string>

- edit /System/Library/Extensions/ATI1300Controller.kext/Contents/ to change
   
   <key>IONameMatch</key
   <array
      <string>pci1002,7183</string
   </array>

- download EVOEnabler.kext from http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=214208 and edit Info.plist
 
   <key>IOPCIMatch</key>
   <string>0x71831002</string>

    (also replace Alopias by Sphyrna o Caretta 6 times)

- If I try to modify ATIRadeonX1000.kext (only the Info.plist) I got a kernel panic and the next
  isn't never loaded.

- I disassembled ATIRadeonX1000 and the only place similar to "cmp edx, 7187h" is in
  offset @2D439 with "cmp eax, 7187h". I tried to replace 87 by 83, but as I'm receiving a
  kernel panic due to the Info.plist I can't test that change.

I have full resolution but I don't have QE/CI neither I can watch youtube videos, and I don't know what to try to not receive a kernel panic when modifying the ATIRadeonX1000.kext.
I can play chess, something strange because a lot of people says it's something to check to know
if QE/CI is working.

I checked the current ati.c, and it shows that the ATI 6900M HD series is unsupported (kNull).........why is that? Can it be fixed?
ATi Mobility Radeon 6970m HD
Chip Family is BARTS, not CAYMAN
Device id: 0x6720
Vendor id: 0x1002
Subsystem: 0x04BA1028

Usually supposed to use framebuffer Elodea......... but it gives black screen on boot after a quick grey flash.

applehacker - you may be desperate to get your hardware working, but posting in multiple places can be considered rude. Please be patient and if somebody knows the answer then I'm sure they'll respond in due course.

Sorry. I thought this might be the right place to post it though, since most hits on google for black screen, ati, and chameleon point to this thread. Doesn't hurt to get multiple opinions though :)

Hi guys...
Just a quick fly by to inform that my activities on the scene are suspended for indefinite time,
due to work and health issues.
Besides the occasional peek at the forge and svn activity, i've been totally out of the loop for the past couple of months
and i have no prevision to when or if i will get back to a steady work here (topic and scene).
About the topic, i really don't know what to do with it!? For now i will leave it as is and unlocked.

Will try to keep an eye on the scene and post/commit some stuff on the little free time that i have,
so no "good bye's", just a "see you later" and a big Thanks to everyone that helped and cared.

Sorry for taking so long to post this info... these are sad and troubled times for me :(
Stay safe...
