Support for some HD5000 series GFX cards emerged in MacMini 10.6.4 Image
See latest entry on netkas.org:
http://netkas.org/?p=465 The following cards have been reported to work, yet: HD5570, 5650, 5670, 5750, 5770, 5850, 5870 & 5970 Download the new ATI drivers from netkas file server: http://mirror.netkas.org/driver.tar.bz2 5750 & 5970 owners need to add their device ID into ATI5000controller.kext Use this version of ATY_Init.kext as inject (32-Bit Kernel only): http://mirror.netkas.org/5700/ATY_Init.kext.zip HD57X0 owners who have problems with getting working display, may try replacing all <string>ATY,Uakari</string> with <string>ATY,Vervet</string> in ATY_init.kext/Contents/Info.plist Update 08. March 2011 See here for latest news about Framebuffer driver in Mac OS X Lion! http://osx86.co/f36/support-for-some...post52977.html |
thanks! everithing is working! got phenom hack with 5850... but it seems that video playback is not accelerated :( or it is the problem of the latest qoopz kernel... in every video player got 1 core 100% busy and video lags while other 3 are free...
ps. well i've found the problem - i got 5850 + 8800GT and after deleting nvdanv50hal.kext, nvdanv40hal.kext, nvdaresman.kext, nvenabler 64.kext - video playback is smooth and there is no 100% cpu load.. :) |
I didn't have much sucess with my 5750 but it was worth a try:

Hi RayFlower,
It's a page fault this happens when the OS fails to locate a memory section that has been stored to the hard disk. Probably you just make a mistake when installing the kext files (file permissions, the cache not beeing rebuild or similiar) Let us try step-by-step: 1. Install pfix http://osx86.sojugarden.com/2010/06/pfix-v3-1-released/ it will repair the file permissions and rebuild the cache for you. 2. Install just the ATY_init.kext - be sure to use this one http://mirror.netkas.org/5700/ATY_Init.kext.zip - the one from netkas original post has had no 5700 series support. Just copy it into /System/Library/Extensions by Finder, open Terminal and run pfix on your OS X Partition. (Be sure to have no other Graphics Inject on your system - remove GraphicsEnabler from com.apple.Boot.plist + any other kext based inject like Natit & others if present!) Reboot and check for the card to be reported as ATI Radeon HD 5700 Series in System-Profiler 3. Download the new ATI kexts http://mirror.netkas.org/driver.tar.bz2, open ATI5000Controller.kext/Contents/Info.plist and add your Device ID into the IOPCIMatch Section. Device ID should be 0x68BE (check in System-Profiler), so you should make it look like this: <key>IOPCIMatch</key> <string>0x68BE1002</string> Move the current ATIFramebuffer.kext & ATISupport.kext from /System/Library/Extensions into the trash can. Drop all the new version ATI kexts into /System/Library/Extensions folder, open Terminal and run pfix on your OS X Partition again. If your screen will go to stand-by after reboot, try using a different output i.e. (secondary-)DVI. Please report back - I'd like adding the 5750 to the supported cards list. :D |
Thanks!
I don't get a kernel panic now. This "sortof" works with vga, however its stuck with silly displaymodes. Acutually... this is really odd, when i plug in hdmi dvi and hdmi i can get 1920x1200 on the hdmi output... but all i get is a blue screen and on dvi i get no signal:S BUT This is great news anyway considering the fact that this works at all, i can open iMovie now and it doesn't complain it doesn't have QE support for instance so its a huge step in the right direction! And a image to confirm this. http://img204.imageshack.us/img204/7...00705at501.png Oh and i should add, this works great with the starcraft2 beta! Edit 2: Using a hdmi2dvi cable made it possible to use dvi in 1920x1200 now, so i guess that solved it for me, well "solved" as it's a silly solution but still better than nothing! |
Have you tried replacing Uakari with Eulemur in order to get DVI working, yet?
|
Yeah, i did that, but it only works when i use hdmi2dvi and dvi on my monitor at the same time, which is okay for now i guess:)
Anyhow, thanks for the help! |

Yesterday I was able to put my Sapphire 5750 1Gb Readeon to work. Only one DVI Out with 1280x1024x32 tested because I only have an old lcd monitor with vga input. I will soon buy an HD monitor and then I notice the result. MacOS 10.6.4 Asus p7p55d-e Intel 2.8GHz Core i5-760 |
It works, thank you
Using the guide, I have HD5750 working. Using Vervet, maximum resolution can be achieved, also there's no problem with video playing.
