Lion with AMD

[gils]

hello,

I noticed with the HD 5450 graphics without accélaration, after 2 hours walking copy / paste still working and I had only three applications that bugger.
As soon as I replaced the HD 5870 (native) bugs were almost immediate.
the problem does not come from the opengl /cl?

I've found this too, Safe Mode seems to last longer.

perhaps also the fact that there is no graphics acceleration, the processor is solicited and avoids the shelving of certain application.
it's still odd that Safari is not concerned.
Someone has tested a Lion DP2 to see if the phenomenon was persistent about this version?

Huh, seems like most kernel users are having video issues.
I can't boot with GraphicsEnabler=Yes, otherwise the monitor loses the signal when entering the gui (GeForce 9800GT).

Same result with the G92 enabler in iAtkos, rom injection, efi string, changing NVCAP, nvenabler 64, DSDT and nvidia official drivers from nvidia web site.

Dimitri came up with an explanation of why xpchelper is crashing the whole system and it's basically because it's linked with power management. This relates to the motherboard and the graphics card and how they're loaded, and that's what's causing the hang, when they're not defined properly.

You have at least two tutorials!

and just when i thought amd + lion was dead i found this thread and after some reading decided to give it a shot, even though my setup is sooo old it shouldnt work anyway. well after lurking this thread and some google i have joined you amd lion peoples...yay! i did basically method 2(iATKOS L2) on lunfai guide except i installed to a different hard drive and not a partition. i had to use a custom kext(AppleNForceATA.imk64bit.kext) to get it to fully load and see the boot source. once in lion i enabled my other kexts for sound & wifi, the graphics were installed with latest nvidia mac drivers install.
thanks to lunfai for the guide that helped with the flags
and a big thanks to bronzovka for reviving the whole amd + lion scene

RRTN = I have a similar system...tried the custom kext but wouldn't start...
did you remove the other sata kexts? ... I've tried the older snow kexts but they won't boot either...

@Dansa22

Have you tried AppleNForceATA.kext.TEST from http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/ind...howtopic=77071
